Untouched Canary Island has empty beaches, stunning rainforests and £2.50 beers
Often overlooked by many, La Gomera is an island that's just as beautiful as its neighbours in the Canaries.
Just a short flight or ferry ride from Tenerife, La Gomera is the third-smallest island in the Spanish archipelago.
It's known for its black sandy beaches, breathtaking scenery and pleasant year-round temperatures which can hit 27C in summer.
La Gomera is also cheaper than its sister islands - meals cost around £8 to £13 while you can grab a pint for £2.50.
The island's centre is occupied by the untouched Garajonay National Park, a tropical paradise perfect for all the family.
A visit to the all-glass Mirador de Abrante observation platform is also a must, offering sprawling views across the ocean.
Family-run B&Bs and small hotels are the norm in La Gomera with rooms available from just £30 per night.
