The 10 Best Outdoor Activities in La Palma, Canary Islands

August 2, 2021 Natalie Tallman

La Palma is a pristine paradise, set against a backdrop of volcanic landscape. Perhaps the best way to experience La Palma’s rugged beauty is a hike through the Caldera de Taburiente National Park or the narrow gorges of Los Tilos. The cool waters of natural swimming hole Charco Azul beckon on a steamy day. The dark sands of Playa Nueva are great for sunbathing and cat naps.

This cacti garden is a private gem whose owners, passionate about succulents, are very helpful, friendly, and full of information. Their collection of agave and cacti is wide ranging and beautifully tended. One could roam through the garden for hours, soaking in the beauty and serenity. There is no entrance fee, but a nice donation is appreciated and helps cover the expenses. Highly recommended!

Fantastic shop and service. Suzanne was really helpful, discussed our needs and made appropriate recommendations for bikes and routes. We hired ebikes and had a lovely ride to Santa Cruz and up in the hills with a pre-programmed nav system. Bikes were excellent and the batteries made all the difference with so many steep climbs.
