La Palma & Tajogaite Volcano Day Trip

At the scheduled time, we'll see you at the Port of Los Cristianos in South Tenerife. We'll board a ferry and set sail for the island of La Palma to get a close-up view of the most recent volcanic eruption in the Canary Islands, the Tajogaite eruption.

After two and a half hours on the boat, we'll arrive in Santa Cruz de La Palma and you'll have half an hour of free time to explore the old town on your own. Afterwards, we'll get on a bus that will take us to the Mirador de la Concepción, located in the highest part of the Caldera volcano, where we'll get breathtaking views of the capital of the island.

From here we'll head over to the Time Tunnel. During the trip, we'll see how the vegetation of the island changes as we approach the Tajogaite volcano, formerly known as Cumbre Vieja. We'll discuss volcanology and explain how the Canary Islands were formed, as well as how locals experienced the Teneguía eruption in 1971.

We'll visit the Tacande neighborhood for an impressive view of the volcano and proceed to Tazacorte to see the lava flows from the Tajogaite volcano.

In Tazacorte we'll enjoy a delicious lunch with two typical Canarian dishes. After lunch, we'll visit the Mirador de Tajuya for a final view of the volcano. Finally, we'll return to Santa Cruz de La Palma and board the ferry back to Tenerife, arriving around 7:30 pm.
