The programme

A trip on a bus to Fuencaliente has plenty of photo opportunities: vineyards as far as the eye can see, landscapes shaped by lava flows, forests of Canary Island pines…
The best photos are to be had at the lighthouse and the salt flats of Fuencaliente: you're at the southernmost tip of La Palma!
Now comes the best part. You'll get a closer look at the ancient San Antonio volcano with a walk along the edge of its crater.
From the summit, you'll spot the younger Teneguía volcano peeping out - formed after an eruption in 1971, which saw the lava flows reshape the surrounding landscape, even expanding the island's territory.
Now it's time to plunge into Fuencaliente's wine-growing side, in a bodega - a historic winery which will open its doors to you with a tasting of some of its traditional wines.
Did you know that even Shakespeare sang their praises? If they win you over too, you can treat yourself to a bottle of 'volcanic flavor'!
