In all the brochures and all the west side is known as the sunny side of La Palma, and yes it does receive way more sun than the east side. So the tourist and all will think, nice sun, sand see, very cool. But what the brochures won't tell is that swimming on the west side will be extremely hard, cause the Atlantic will throw it's waves with great force against the shore.
So if you want to swim, you'll be off to the east side for a nice swim.

La Palma can be cheap, with meals and drinks for under 10euro's, but this deffenetly doesn't go for the few resort towns and other sea side atractions.
There you could end up looking at a menu and see fish for 7euo's, not bad at all you think. But the price is ONLY for the fish, the fries, rice salad, or whatever you get with it comes seperate on the bill, so you will pay more.
Unique Suggestions: If in doubt, just ask before you order.
Fun Alternatives: If you don't stay in one of those towns or have a car. just drive to a small town, where the food mostly is better anyway.

The Caldera de Taburiente is the heart of La Palma. The diameter of the Caldera is 10 KM and the peaks around are about 2400 M. Thanks to this crater the island La Palma has the most impressive...
I just came from a short trip from this island. Out of 7 canary Islands La Palma was the 5th island I had seen so far. (Only El Hierro and La Gomera left). This Island is absolute beauty and dream......
La Palma is one of the lesser visited Canary islands. It isn't as popular as Gran Canaria or Tenerife, and there also lies the beauty of it. It is relativly tourist free (except for two resort towns)....
La Palma island, everlasting springtime
After an earlier visit in Jan03, I came back to LaPalma in Feb/Mar05. I just love to be outside and see nature, meet people, have fun. La Palma is such a wonderful place.
This small island has only 700 km^2 of land and we pass, in a minut, from the Atantic Ocean to the good shadow of the trees on the high mountain.
