Cycling Spots around San Sebastián

La Gomera

San Sebastián de La Gomera is the capital of the island and is the only port receiving ferries from Tenerife and La Palma.

Being only 50km ride across the island, it is possible for experienced cyclists to ride from the whole island over multiple days using San Sebastián as their base.

For a multi-day trip in La Gomera, there is more choice of accommodation in San Sebastián. The roads out of the city take you straight towards the centre of the island and you’ll start climbing almost immediately.

Travelling in Summer

July & August are the peak tourist months but it is not as hectic as Tenerife. Still, you should book accommodation and transfers well in advance. The cost of accommodation & travel in La Gomera is relatively cheaper than Tenerife and you will need to consider the 50min ferry ride from Tenerife. It is also possible to do day trips from Tenerife with a return ferry but it can make for a long day. Make sure you plan ahead and check the ferry times. There is a small airport with flights only between Tenerife and Gran Canaria.
