La Palma (full name: La Isla de San Miguel de La Palma) is the most northwestern of the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean and belongs to the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Its capital is Santa Cruz de La Palma, and its largest municipality is Los Llanos de Aridane. La Palma is one of the geologically youngest islands of the Canary Islands, whose volcanism is still visible in many craters and lava flows along the volcanic route on Cumbre Vieja and the large crater of the Caldera de Taburiente. It is the most forested island of the Canary Islands, with 40% forest cover compared to the other Canary Islands and is therefore also called Isla Verde ("Green Island"). Since La Palma has been spared from mass tourism, many places on the island have retained their original character.
