In the evening, enjoy a delightful dinner at the hotel, offering a perfect opportunity to meet your fellow travelers and the knowledgeable tour guide who will accompany you throughout this journey.

Explore the dramatic southern landscapes of La Palma, characterized by expansive lava fields and volcanic craters. Your journey begins at the San Antonio Volcano in Fuencaliente, leading you through vineyards to the youngest volcano in Spain, Teneguía. Continue your hike through a stark yet captivating terrain to the southern tip's lighthouse, where one of the Canary Islands' last salt flats awaits. Breathe in the salty air, wander through the salt flats, or relax with a coffee at a nearby restaurant.

Venture into the northeast, where gentle paths guide you through the mystical laurel forest of Cubo de la Galga. Marvel at the lush vegetation, including giant ferns and lianas, as you reach the La Somada Alta Viewpoint for breathtaking panoramas. Descend to the quaint village of San Bartolo, then embark on a coastal walk from the picturesque San Andrés to the inviting natural swimming pool, Charco Azul. Weather permitting, take a refreshing dip before continuing to Puerto Espindola to explore the Ron Aldea Distillery.

Today, the choice is yours. Unwind on the serene black lava beach of Los Cancajos, or take a bus to the island's capital, Santa Cruz de la Palma. This UNESCO World Heritage Site offers a rich tapestry of history and culture, perfect for a leisurely stroll or a deeper exploration of its charming streets and landmarks.

Ascend to a grove of ancient dragon trees, steeped in legend, before concluding your day at the vibrant Puntagorda Farmers' Market.

Design your day as you wish, or opt for an exhilarating hike into the heart of the Caldera de Taburiente National Park. Traverse the awe-inspiring 'Canyon of Fears of Death,' a journey that promises breathtaking vistas and a sense of adventure. This optional excursion is priced based on participation, ensuring a personalized experience for all.

Ascend to the island's highest point, Roque de los Muchachos, and embark on a hike to Pico de la Cruz.
