Step into the tranquil gateway of San Sebastián de la Gomera, the charming capital of La Gomera where Christopher Columbus set sail on his first voyage to the New World in 1492, leaving behind the historic Casa de Colón (Columbus House) and the iconic Torre del Conde fortress overlooking the peaceful black-pebble harbor. Wander the colorful old town with its narrow lanes, whitewashed houses draped in bougainvillea, and the lively Plaza de la Constitución lined with cafés serving fresh espresso and gofio, or take the cable car up to the lush Garajonay National Park (UNESCO-listed) for misty laurel forests, ancient dragon trees, and panoramic views over the island’s volcanic peaks and deep ravines—all in a relaxed, uncrowded port town that perfectly balances rich maritime history, subtropical nature, and warm Canarian hospitality just a short ferry ride from Tenerife.
Savor fresh papas arrugadas with spicy mojo verde, grilled pescado de la Gomera, sweet almendrados (almond cookies), and crisp local white wines amid gentle harbor breezes, volcanic sunsets, and the unmistakable sense of a place where history and nature meet in quiet harmony.
San Sebastián de la Gomera isn’t just a destination—it’s the authentic soul of La Gomera, a peaceful launchpad to volcanic wonders and Columbus legacy—plan your San Sebastián adventure today!
