Lying on the north coast of the island, the town offers an impressive view of the lush landscape surrounding the Atlantic coast. You can visit this town in Agulo’s lower area and feel relaxed in its narrow cobbled streets.

Easter is celebrated with a huge fiesta in Agulo. Young men testing their bravery by leaping through fire is a popular tradition.

Garajonay National Park is another popular with multiple hiking trails and a massive diversity of plant species. It covers 11% of La Gomera. Usually, this park remains covered in fog and you might be bewitched on your visit like a fairytale.
