Located on the west coast of La Palma, Tazacorte is a place full of life, light, and color.
With more hours of sunshine than any other corner of Europe, this municipality combines history, nature, and culture in a privileged environment.
From its fishing port to the banana plantations that paint the landscape green, each corner reflects the essence of the island: authenticity, hospitality, and natural beauty.
The cobbled streets of the historic center hold the memory of the great families who, since the 16th century, turned this corner into the economic engine of La Palma.
Alonso Fernández de Lugo landed here in 1492, initiating the conquest of the island.
Shortly after, Jácome de Monteverde built the Hacienda de Abajo, the most prosperous in La Palma, origin of the El Charco neighborhood and the traditional architecture that still retains its original layout today.
Here, life passes to the rhythm of the sea, the aroma of coffee, and the taste of mojo.
The bagañetes, as its inhabitants are affectionately known, maintain a strong and cheerful identity.
Festivals such as the Caballos Fufos, the Virgen del Carmen, or the Fiesta de la Morena reflect the open, creative, and musical character of Tazacorte.
Tazacorte is the natural gateway to the Barranco de las Angustias, entry point to the Caldera de Taburiente National Park.
Its volcanic sand beaches, its routes between banana plantations, and its infinite sunsets make this municipality a paradise for those seeking to disconnect and reconnect with nature.
