Yep. Wanderlust — it gets right into your bones. So, isn't it about time you organised your next adventure? La Caleta awaits!
The country's capital, Madrid, can be found 1,900 kilometres to the northeast of La Caleta.
Think about taking a picnic hamper packed with goodies so you can indulge in a leisurely lunch by the water at Puerto Naos Beach or La Cueva Beach.
Take a long, deep breath and contemplate the natural surrounds of La Bonanza Rock. It lies 10 kilometres away from La Caleta. You can also enjoy some quiet time at El Hierro Biosphere Reserve, 13 kilometres away.
Are you thinking of visiting the Guinea y Lagartario Eco Museum and La Maceta Natural Pools? They're close to the centre of Valverde, 5 kilometres to the west. Alternatively, you could head to Frontera. It's 18 kilometres to the west of La Caleta and regarded for Verodal Beach and Charco de Los Sargos.
Feel like going to the San Sebastian de la Gomera Harbour, Asuncion de San Sebastian de La Gomera Church and Torre del Conde Monument? Make your way to San Sebastian de la Gomera, 80 kilometres to the northeast, and set up base. These sights, as well as the Insular Infanta Cristina Auditorium and the La Gomera Archaeological Museum, are all close.
Your eyes shouldn't have all the fun while you're in El Hierro. Give your taste buds a little TLC too by sampling some of the local food and drink. After all, you can't say you've really experienced a destination until you've tasted its flavours.
Are you fond of yam? How about cheese? Whether you're wild about them or not, they are two essential ingredients regularly used in the cooking here.
There's always a local recipe or two that you need to cross of the list, and while you're in La Caleta, ropa vieja (shredded steak in tomato sauce) is certainly one of them. Sancocho (fish soup) is another traditional recipe that's an essential experience for foodies.
'Stressed' spelled backwards is 'desserts', and we don't believe in coincidences. There's no more delightful way to say goodbye to your worries than with frangollo (flour, milk and cinnamon dessert), a sweet treat that's often found on dining tables here.
More experienced travellers usually put in the effort to learn a couple of phrases in the local tongue. Many find that being able to exchange some words with the locals isn't just convenient, it's good fun too! First of all, try to get your mouth around '¿Cómo estás?'. This translates as 'how are you?'. One more to remember is '¿Cuánto cuesta? ', meaning 'how much is this?'.
Celebrated throughout the country, National Day is held on the 12th of October. If you find yourself here at this time, it'll be difficult not to get swept up in all the excitement!
Like all good things, your trip to La Caleta must eventually come to an end. When it's finally time to head off, say one last "Hasta la vista" and spend your leftover holiday allowance on some unique keepsakes.
When it's time to pack your bags and head home, the closest terminal, Tenerife South Airport (TFS), is 130 kilometres to the east.
After our best picks? Take a look at the Parador de El Hierro and Casa Rural Aborigen Bimbache. A cosy bed and great service await!
