Good to know for La Palma

The east and north are damp and carry laurel forest, the west is sunnier. Mornings in the Caldera de Taburiente can be wet and fogged in while the coast below sits in full sun.

The island is a starlight reserve with strict rules on outdoor lighting. For a night under the sky, bring a head torch with a red mode, a warm jacket and a blanket, because summer nights at altitude still fall into single figures.

The currency is the euro, power matches the mainland, and even small guesthouses take cards. Inland villages have few shops, so buy hiking supplies in Santa Cruz or Los Llanos before heading up.
