Holidays in Los Cancajos

If you're eager to leave the crowds behind, holidays in Los Cancajos will get a big thumbs up. Despite being the most developed resort on exotic La Palma, it radiates an off-the-beaten-track feel.

Like everywhere else on volcanic La Palma, tranquillity rules in Los Cancajos. Set between steep mountainsides and the shimmering Atlantic, its big pull is its beaches - three Blue Flag, sheltered bays of dark volcanic sands perfect for lazy, sun-washed days and cooling dips. Plus the sub-tropical waters hide colourful fish and amazing rock formations, making them heaven for snorkelling and diving.

Close by, Los Cancajos struts its holiday stuff in an understated way, with modern hotels and an assortment of shops and fish restaurants. There's plenty of things to do too. How about paragliding or tennis? Or hiking to Taburiente National Park, the world's largest volcanic crater? The island's well-marked paths make holidays in Los Cancajos great for walkers. And for urban sights, try bustling Santa Cruz. But make sure you're back at base for sundown, when spectacular rose-pink sunsets light up the cliffs.
