From Tenerife to La Gomera there is a distance of 21 miles, equivalent to 34 kilometers.

To travel between the capital and Playa Santiago, you have two main options that combine convenience with stunning island scenery:

• By Road: If you are travelling with your own vehicle or a rental car, take the GM-2 highway towards Degollada de Peraza. From there, follow the turn-off onto the GM-3, which leads directly to your destination. The route is well-signposted, and the estimated travel time is approximately 45 minutes. Public bus services (guaguas) are also available for this route.

• By Ferry (Coastal Route): Fred. Olsen Express operates an inter-island fast ferry line that connects both points by sailing along the island's southern coastline. This is the fastest alternative, taking only 30 minutes, and offers a unique perspective of the cliffs and landscape from the sea.

To travel from the capital to the picturesque municipality of Valle Gran Rey, you have two main alternatives that either cross the heart of the island or sail along its coastline:

• By Road (Route through Garajonay): The journey by car takes approximately 1 hour. You should take the GM-2 highway heading west. After passing through the Arure tunnel, you will begin the descent along the GM-1, which offers spectacular views of the valley until you reach the coast.

• By Ferry (Maritime Line): The most comfortable and efficient option is the Fred. Olsen Express fast ferry. This maritime route connects the Port of San Sebastián with Valle Gran Rey in about 70 minutes, including a short stop in Playa Santiago.
