About El Hierro

El Hierro occupies the most south-westerly region of the Spanish Canary Islands, an archipelago sprawled along the west coast of Africa.

As the most far-flung of the Canaries, El Hierro has long had a mysterious reputation. It was even considered the zero meridian until 1885 and believed to be the world’s end due to its dramatic cliffs and rugged, awe-inspiring appearance from a distance.

However, El Hierro’s impressive natural features, including lush forests, lava fields and peculiar vegetation, have been found worthy of UNESCO World Biosphere status. The island also boasts a Marine Reserve and forty six excellent dive sites consisting of steep drop-offs, underwater caves and colourful fish.

Reaching El Hierro by ferry is simple, with daily crossings from the popular holiday island of Tenerife to Puerto de la Estaca on the east coast, which are operated by one of the leading ferry companies in the Canaries.
