Cheap Car Rental La Gomera: Best of FindYCar

Rising steeply from the Atlantic, this circular Canary Island offers a wild, untouched escape far from mass tourism. Its UNESCO-listed laurel forests and dramatic ravines feel almost prehistoric, with hiking trails leading through misty, magical landscapes. Visitors explore Garajonay National Park, encounter the island’s unique whistling language, relax on black sand beaches, and wander cliffside villages where time moves slowly.

Its dramatic topography means villages perch on opposite sides of deep ravines just kilometers apart, but requiring hour-long hikes or winding mountain drives to reach. Here’s why you should rent a car in La Gomera:

  • The island’s best hiking trails have scattered trailheads across mountains – driving between them beats waiting for infrequent buses
  • Garajonay National Park’s ancient laurel forests and misty viewpoints require navigating steep switchback roads public transport rarely serves
  • Valle Gran Rey’s hippie beaches in the west and the capital San Sebastián in the east feel worlds apart without your own transport.

What’s your favorite rental type? No deposit, cash only, additional insurance, no credit card required, guaranteed model, and a range of other upgrades are available on FindYCar at any time. Book now.
