Itinerary

N/A

• Get into an exciting caving tour of natural interest by UNESCO in La Palma. • You will learn the secrets that Cueva de las Palomas hides. • You will be leaded by an expert guide. Declared as a place of natural interest by UNESCO, and as a natural monument by the Government of the Canary Islands, making it part of the Canary Network of Protected Natural Spaces. The Cueva de Las Palomas cave was formed as a result of the volcanic eruption of San Juan Volcano in 1949. It has more than 10 openings that provide natural light at different points of the route, being some of these former fumaroles through which there were lava and hot sulphurous gases leaking during the formation of the tube. The tube’s dimension is around 3 meters wide per 560 meters length approximately. Its scientific interest is eminently geological and is increased by its biological importance since it hosts a peculiar fauna of invertebrates.

Excellent preparation keeping all safety recommendations due to COVID-19, we felt safe all the time. The tour guide excellent, very good explanations about not only the cave, but also the island that gives perfect context about what you are about to see. Very interesting material and time flew due to the kindness and fun guide . It completely exceeded our expectations. Totally recommended!
