Why you should go to La Gomera !
La Gomera is a secluded get-away where the British Prime Minister and the German Chancellor have vacationed. It is a speck of an island, the second smallest in the Canary Islands, ringed by soaring volcanic cliffs with a cloud forest at its heart. Yet along the coast are date palms and often deserted black-sand beaches. The microclimates and caressing trade winds make it a year around vacation destination with temperatures averaging 22 °C (72 °F). It covers less than 144 square kilometers (56 square miles), but tortuous roads and frequent fogs can slow the journey. The island is a longtime hippie haven and attracts so many German tourists that it's sometimes called a German colony. A poet once described the island as a woman, mysterious and distant. It's a welcoming LGBTQ destination, especially among lesbians.been therewishlist
