Today, National Geographic Orion embarked on a journey to the enchanting island of La Gomera, nestled in the Canary Islands. Our expedition began in the picturesque port of San Sebastián, a charming little town nestled along the hillside. From there, we ventured up to the island’s higher elevations to visit the lush laurel forest that thrives at these heights. Here, we encountered many endemic plants and bird species, a testament to the island’s unique biodiversity. It was a delight to experience the natural splendor of La Gomera on this beautiful day.
