The Times ranked La Gomera in seventh place.
"Christopher Columbus was so seduced by La Gomera in 1492 that he supposedly delayed his seminal voyage to discover America by a month while he explored this lesser-known Canary Island. Today it's easy to see why. Some 370 kilometres of trails wind through the misty ravines of Garajonay National Park; below are palm groves and three black-sand beaches, blue-flagged for cleanliness. The views of Tenerife's volcano, Mount Teide, are magnificent, and you can visit the house where Columbus stayed, and where he returned twice more."
