San Sebastián de La Gomera

Today I drove to San Sebastiánde La Gomera to pick up Evelynn from the ferry. It takes 1:15 from my place and is directly on the opposite side of the island.

San Sebastián is the capital of La Gomera. It is located on the east coast and is the largest of the island's six municipalities in terms of population and area. The port of San Sebastián is the gateway to the entire island. From here there are ferry connections to the neighboring islands of Tenerife, La Palma and El Hierro, among others. The distance to the nearest ferry port, Los Cristianos, on Tenerife is 38 kilometers. The marina has been considerably expanded since 2000.

Two important main roads lead from San Sebastián to the other towns on the island. The GM 1 leads north, is about 50 kilometers long and connects the city with Vallehermoso. The GM 2 passes the Roque de Agando and, with a branch to Playa Santiago, connects San Sebastián with the Valle Gran Rey.

I can take both to get to Alojera, today I drove past the Roques so that Evelynn could take some nice holiday memories.Read more
