Keen to get to know La Palma’s capital?

Hop off at the Naval Museum which is housed in a replica of Columbus’ ship Santa Maria and stroll through the pretty, cobblestone streets and squares including Plaza Alameda, Plaza San Francisco, and Placeta Borrero. Admire the beautiful Renaissance-style Town Hall and the elegant 17th century church, Iglesia del Salvador. Call in for a refreshing drink at a local bar and explore the Junonia Visitor Centre to discover more about La Palma’s intriguing past.
