How to get here
The Canary Islands are the southernmost point of Europe. There are many flights daily that connect the islands to most of the EU countries within a few hours.
Although La Gomera has an airport, it is only for flights between the islands, meaning that, to get here from Europe, you’ll have to change flights in Tenerife or Gran Canaria.
Another way to get to La Gomera is to take a boat from Tenerife. The Fred Olsen and Naviera Armas shipping companies currently operate a pleasant route that doesn’t take more than 60 minutes.
If you are a citizen of one of these territories, all you need to show upon arrival at the airport is a valid passport or national identity card, with no additional checks.
If you reside in another country, you will have to go through customs control on arrival, where you may be asked, in addition to a passport and other supporting documents, for a visa, travel documents such as return tickets or tourist itinerary, accommodation reservations and proof of sufficient financial means during your stay in the form of cash, cheques, letters of payment or credit cards (minimum amount of 100 euros per person per day, with a minimum of 900 euros or equivalent in foreign currency).
