La Palma is the most north-westerly island of the Canary Islands. The island has 85,000 inhabitants, an international airport, and a nature so beautiful that you've got to see it to believe it. La Palma is also known as La Isla Bonita and La Isla Verde, which is fully justified. Regardless of which name you use the island is relatively unknown and therefore it has kept its authentic charm. Charter tourism, which due to the mild climate thrives on the other Canary Islands, is very limited in La Palma. It mostly attracts nature lovers and hikers, and they choose to keep its unspoiled beauty a secret.
