With an area of 370 square kilometres (140 sq mi), it is the third smallest of the eight main islands of this archipelago. It belongs to the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. La Gomera is the third least populous of the eight main Canary Islands with 21, 136 inhabitants. [2] Its capital is San Sebastián de La Gomera, where the cabildo insular (island council) is located. Political organisation [ edit] La Gomera is part of the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. It is divided into six municipalities: Name Area (km 2) Population (2001) [3] Population (2011) [4] Population (2018) [5] Agulo 25. 36 1, 127 1, 148 1, 067 Alajeró 49. 43 1, 465 2, 005 2, 006 Hermigua 39. 67 2, 038 2, 076 1, 805 San Sebastián de la Gomera 113. 59 6, 618 8, 943 8, 945 Valle Gran Rey 32. 36 4, 239 4, 547 4, 484 Vallehermoso 109. 32 2, 798 2, 961 2, 829 Totals 370. 03 18, 285 21, 680 21, 138 The island government ( cabildo insular) is located in the capital, San Sebastián. Geography [ edit] The island is of volcanic origin and roughly circular; it is about 22 kilometres (14 miles) in diameter. The island is very mountainous and steeply sloping and rises to 1, 487 metres (4, 879 ft) at the island's highest peak, Alto de Garajonay. Its shape is rather like an orange that has been cut in half and then split into segments, which has left deep ravines or barrancos between them. Ecology [ edit] The uppermost slopes of these barrancos, in turn, are covered by the laurisilva - or laurel rain forest, where up to 50 inches of precipitation fall each year. The upper reaches of this densely wooded region are almost permanently shrouded in clouds and mist, and as a result are covered in lush and diverse vegetation: they form the protected environment of Spain's Garajonay National Park, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986. The slopes are criss-crossed by paths that present varying levels of difficulty to visitors, and stunning views to seasoned hikers. The central mountains catch the moisture from the trade wind clouds and yield a dense jungle climate in the cooler air, which contrasts with the warmer, sun-baked cliffs near sea level. Between these extremes one finds a fascinating gamut of microclimates; for centuries, the inhabitants of La Gomera have farmed the lower levels by channelling runoff water to irrigate their vineyards, orchards and banana groves. Natural symbols [ edit] The official natural symbols associated with La Gomera are Columba junoniae (Paloma rabiche) and Persea indica (Viñátigo). [6] Culture [ edit] The local wine is distinctive and often accompanied with a tapa (snack) of local cheese, roasted pork, or goat meat. Other culinary specialities include almogrote, a cheese spread, miel de palma, a syrup extracted from palm trees, and "escaldón", a porridge made with gofio flour. The inhabitants of La Gomera have an ancient way of communicating across deep ravines by means of a whistled speech called Silbo Gomero, which can be heard 2 miles away. [7] This whistled language is indigenous to the island, and its existence has been documented since Roman times. Invented by the original inhabitants of the island, the Guanches, Silbo Gomero was adopted by the Spanish settlers in the 16th century and survived after the Guanches were entirely assimilated. [7] When this means of communication was threatened with extinction at the dawn of the 21st century, the local government required all children to learn it in school. Marcial Morera, a linguist at the University of La Laguna has said that the study of silbo may help understand how languages are formed. [7] In the mountains of La Gomera, its original inhabitants worshipped their god, whom they called Orahan; the summit and centre of the island served as their grand sanctuary. Indeed, many of the natives took refuge in this sacred territory in 1489, as they faced imminent defeat at the hands of the Spaniards, and it was here that the conquest of La Gomera was drawn to a close. Modern-day archaeologists have found several ceremonial stone constructions here that appear to represent sacrificial altar stones, slate hollows, or cavities. It was here that the Guanches built pyres upon which to make offerings of goats and sheep to their god. This same god, Orahan, was known on La Palma as Abora and on Tenerife and Gran Canaria as Arocan. The Guanches also interred their dead in caves. Today, saints, who are worshipped through village festivals, are principally connected with Christianity. But in some aspects, the Guanches’ god-like idealising of Gomeran uniqueness plays a role as well besides their pre-Christian and pre-colonial implication and shows strong local differences. [8] Christopher Columbus made La Gomera his last port of call before crossing the Atlantic in 1492 with his three ships. He stopped here to replenish his crew's food and water supplies, intending to stay only four days. Beatriz de Bobadilla y Ossorio, the Countess of La Gomera and widow of Hernán Peraza the Younger, offered him vital support in preparations of the fleet, and he ended up staying one month. When he finally set sail on 6 September 1492, she gave him cuttings of sugarcane, which became the first to reach the New World. After his first voyage of Discovery, Columbus again provisioned his ships at the port of San Sebastián de La Gomera in 1493 on his second voyage to the New World, commanding a fleet of 17 vessels. He visited La Gomera for the last time in 1498 on his third voyage to the Americas. The house in San Sebastián in which he is reputed to have stayed is now a tourist attraction. Genetics [ edit] An autosomal study in 2011 found an average Northwest African influence of about 17% in Canary Islanders with a wide interindividual variation ranging from 0% to 96%. According to the authors, the substantial Northwest African ancestry found for Canary Islanders supports that, despite the aggressive conquest by the Spanish in the 15th century and the subsequent immigration, genetic footprints of the first settlers of the Canary Islands persist in the current inhabitants. Parallelling mtDNA findings (50. 1% of U6 and 10. 83% of L haplogroups), [9] the largest average Northwest African contribution (42. 50%) was found for the samples from La Gomera. [10] According to Flores et al. (2003), genetic drift could be responsible for the contrasting difference in Northwest African ancestry detected with maternal (51% of Northwest African lineages) and paternal markers (0. 3–10% of Northwest African lineages) in La Gomera. Alternatively, it could reflect the dramatic way the island was conquered, producing the strongest sexual asymmetry in the archipelago. [11] Festivals [ edit] The festival of the Virgin of Guadalupe, patron saint of the island, is the Monday following the first Saturday of October. Every five years (most recently in 2013) is celebrated the Bajada de la Virgen de Guadalupe (the Bringing the Virgin) from her hermitage in Puntallana to the capital. She is brought by boat to the beach of San Sebastián de La Gomera, where several people host her, and transported throughout the island for two months. Notable natives and residents [ edit] Antonio José Ruiz de Padrón (1757–1823), Franciscan priest and politician. José Aguiar (1895–1975), painter. Pedro García Cabrera (1905–1981), writer and poet.

Straight off, this movie is totally different to what you may be used when thinking about Romanian movies. Starting with the story, the cast (Catrinel Marlon is magnificent) the scenery, smart humor and hidden little gems (references to various famous scenes in other movies) this film makes you think you're watching more of a Hollywood movie than a Romanian one, although, as a downside, I must say certain characters seem to be portrayed a bit simplistic.
The story is, to some extent, a typical police one, but the twist of using the whistling language from Gomera Island enriches the plot all around as it unfolds.
I really liked the movie and I would be happy if it sets the new trend in Romanian Cinema.
I edited my comment so the response makes no sense. La gomera movie watch full. I'm a stingray and I approve this behavior. We won't attack first, what happened with Steve was a big misunderstanding. The young human by the name of Joel is a great friend of one of our own. We're having Joel and his family over for dinner later this week. Hopefully things will turn out OK. While I am here, I will respond to any questions our fellow Earthlings will direct into our attention. I speak for the S.R.U. when I say this. The Sting-Ray Union is a peaceful directive and we've been thinking about how to get bonded with humans over the past few thousand of years.

Habe mir überlegt, eine drohne etc für den anstehenden Urlaub anzuschaffen, um halt ein bisschen den Urlaub filmerisch aus neuen Perspektiven zu begleiten. Aber darf man fliegen - wo wann und wie- kennt sich da jemand aus.
I am going to go straight and tell you: I am sorry, but do not go to this movie. br>
It is the biggest waste of money I've ever made and besides seing Catrinel Marlon naked there is nothing to see. The main character has no emotions and all the movie seems like it was written with the left hand (obviosly the writer is right handed.
The movie also has gross scenes and the whistling sound is extremely annoying.
I rate 2/10 just because of the beauty of Catrinel.
No pude contener las lágrimas 😭 hay que hacer algo para darle una mano a esta muchacha. Dios le de fuerza y mucha vida.
The jeep juddered to a halt on a dusty red mountain path 400 metres above sea level. With a foot to spare at the side of the track, I looked down as if into a kaleidoscope that had broken open. Below was an intensely green and fragmented world of giant palms, banana trees, huge ferns and mossy boulders blanketed by flowering vines. Beyond, the colour of mercury, the Atlantic Ocean seemed to stretch into infinity. A Cleopatra butterfly floated lazily by, its yellow wings tipped by tiny pink spots. It was early December. I was little more than half-a-day’s travel from wet-and-windy London, and just 50 minutes by ferry from the egg-box apartment resorts of southern Tenerife. But standing spellbound on the side of that mountain, on the lesser-known island of La Gomera, I felt light years away from the chaos and brashness associated with the Canary Islands’ more obvious tourist destinations. Bathed in sunshine and silence, with only sea, sky and nature for company, I could have been in a different century. The second-smallest of the seven Canary Islands - near-circular and with a diameter of only 25 kilometres - La Gomera feels like the island that time forgot. You can drive through soaring ravines and sleepy mountain villages down to deserted rocky beaches without encountering a single traffic light. On that morning’s helter-skelter ride into the northwest of the island, the landscape had seemed at times near-biblical in its stillness. And the rituals of rural life playing out along the wayside were as though from another era.

I passed farmsteads on ribbon-thin dirt shelves, where labourers in straw hats were piling huge avocadoes into wheelbarrows. I watched vintners, balancing like tightrope walkers on near-vertical terraces to tend frothy arcades of La Gomera’s rare Forestara grapes. Returning southwards, through the hilltop village of Chipude, I steered through a throng of local women gathering for a gossip around the island’s only remaining municipal washing place.

This wasn’t my first trip to La Gomera, or into its enchanting interior. But getting to know the island is like peeling the layers from an onion. Each visit brings with it new discoveries, and this one was proving to be no exception.

The previous day, a local friend had introducedmes to one of the island’s quirkiest hidden treasures – a tiny white-painted chapel perched, a dizzying 950 metres above sea level, on a cliff edge at Guará, near the abandoned village of Gerián. The chapel was built in 1962, she explained, by a farmer called Don Cándido Dorta. His cow was sick, and he’d promised God that he’d build a place of worship as a thank you if the animal survived its illness. The cow perked up; Don Cándido kept his side of the bargain, and a fiesta is now held there every October in joint memory of man and beast. “What you’d call a 'win-win situation’, ” my friend concluded brightly.

I’d arrived in La Gomera by ferry. The runway of the island’s airport is too short for international flights, which helps explain the absence of tourist hordes – yet the ferry ride is a delight in itself. Head for the viewing deck as the boat begins its approach, and you’ll get an amazing first glimpse of the scale of the island’s landmass. Ringed by volcanic cliffs rippled with sandstone strata of vivid aubergines and golds, it rises from the ocean to a height of almost 1500 metres: an inscrutable primeval mountain.

It’s not hard to see why director Ron Howard chose La Gomera as a key shooting location for his latest film In the Heart of the Sea, set in 1820, which tells the story of the doomed ship Essex, sunk by a sperm whale in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Viewed from the water, the craggy coronet of sheer rock that encircles the island could be any time, any place. Likewise, with only a scattered handful of small low-key settlements and no coastal road to link them, the seaboard is almost startlingly void of light pollution. There’d have been no chance of a Coca-Cola sign hoving into view as the ship went down.
"The church and Customs House have been destroyed and rebuilt countless times since Columbus’s day, in the wake of pirate raids. "
The port of San Sebastián, where the ferry docks, is – to be honest – a bit of a let-down. Not even La Gomera’s greatest fan could claim to feel inspired by the hotchpotch of industrial buildings and hillside sprawl of functional housing (albeit in ice-cream colours) that greets new arrivals to its capital. But the place has a special story to tell, as Christopher Columbus’s last port of call in 1492 before his epic sail to the Americas. A stroll through pretty Calle Real, in the oldest part of town, becomes a positive pile-up of Columbus “moments”: the gloomy church where, allegedly, he made his last confession before the voyage; the well in the patio of Customs House, from which he supposedly took the water to baptise the New World, and wooden-balconied “Casa de Colón”, billed at his former lodgings.
All this is, of course, shameless smoke-and-mirrors: both the church and Customs House have been destroyed and rebuilt countless times since Columbus’s day, in the wake of pirate raids. His so-called “house” was first built over a hundred years after his death. But – as we agreed over tapas under Indian laurel trees in the main square’s convivial Las Carabelas café - you’ve got to admire the Gomeros’ breezy disregard for detail when it comes to making the most of their unexpected claim to fame.
• Five best things to do on La Gomera
Set high above town, in lush, sub-tropical gardens, is San Sebastián’s elegant Parador de Gomera, a graceful Canarian-style mansion with mesmerising views across to Tenerife’s Mount Teide, the highest peak in all of Spain. (Perhaps strangely, Gomeros regard Mount Teide as part of “their” island. “It’s because we see it nearly all the time, ” my friend explained later in the visit. “For people on Tenerife itself, it’s shrouded in mist more often that not. ”) The parador is one of the most popular hotels on the island, especially among British visitors. Otherwise, tourists-in-the-know tend to head south to the small fishing port of Playa de Santiaģo, La Gomera’s sunniest spot, or westwards to the swathe of unspoiled black sand beaches in awesome Valle Gran Rey.
Playa de Santiago has been my chill-out spot of choice on most visits. Laid out like a tiny Canarian village, the cliff-top Hotel Jardin Tecina is a haven of tranquillity – flower-filled and drenched in birdsong. I began this latest visit there, lapping up the luxury of breakfasting among palm trees and repairing to my gorgeous sea-view balcony for a glass of cava each sunset after my daily inland safaris. For the last few days of my stay, though, I decided to head westwards to majestic Valle Gran Rey (the name means “Valley of the Great King”), by popular consent the most beautiful of La Gomera’s valleys.
The drive from Playa de Santiago to Valle Gran Rey, is a cracker – another roller-coaster ride, this time through deep ravines tiered with palm trees and almost lunar expanses of rocky plateau where weirdly shaped volcanic plugs mark the sites of extinct volcanoes. On the way, I diverted slightly to revisit the island’s astonishing Garajonay National Park, an ancient laurasilva rainforest cloaked in silvery mists and dense with subtropical vegetation - too glorious to bypass, no matter how many times you’ve visited La Gomera. And then it was downhill all the way, through corkscrew twists of sherbet-coloured villages, to Valle Gran Rey’s rugged run of wild-and-wonderful beaches.

The dappled sky ahead exploded like popcorn into a bubbling pink sunset as I dipped down to the waterfront. The town’s palm-lined strip of pretty neighbourhoods was buzzing with activity. First settled by (mostly German) hippies in the 1960s, Valle Gran Rey has a laid-back atmosphere all of its own – charming, peaceful and ever-so-slightly dippy: like Glastonbury-on-Sea. Diamond-scored palm tree-trunks were plastered with posters advertising live music gigs or offering reiki healing. A battered van, parked by a makeshift stage, sported a painted rainbow and a splattering of magic mushrooms. But the overwhelming feel of the place was of a single, good-natured community. Middle-aged hikers wearing walking boots and Bill’n’Ben hats rubbed shoulders round market stalls with youthful New Age travellers in dreadlocks and floaty pre-Raphaelite regalia. People walked their dogs. Cafés and pizzerias began to fill up with crowds of chattering locals.
For now, this was my journey’s end. I headed for a bar, ordered a Dorado beer and relaxed into a different kind of timelessness. On a nearby bench, overlooking the seafront, an elderly Gomero man was playing an accordion.

La gomera movie watch english. La Gomera Movie watching. La Gomera Movie. This was such an awesome trip. When most people think of the Canary Islands, images of beachside resorts and party-going travellers spring to mind – but that’s because no one is thinking of La Gomera. This volcanic island, ringed with rugged cliff faces and carpeted in ancient forests and palm-flecked valleys, has an almost Jurassic Park feel to it. Those looking to spice up their sun, sand and sea with some unbeatable wildlife, nature and captivating culture will have this little-known speck in the Atlantic Ocean pretty much to themselves. The lush green gorge of Valle Gran Rey © RossHelen / Shutterstock Get your La Gomera bearings Located off the west coast of Tenerife, La Gomera is the second-smallest Canary Island, measuring 36km from east to west. But this tiny isle shouldn’t be underestimated. Its emerald peak rises 1487m above sea level, surrounded by huge banks of swirling fog and creating a microclimate that has allowed one of Europe’s last remaining cloud forests to flourish in spectacular fashion. Temperatures average 22 degrees year-round, but a southerly wind means that the south shores are particularly hot and sunny. It can take as little as two hours to drive across the island, but thanks to these diverse environmental pockets you’ll encounter a reel of star-studded scenery, from sun-speckled ocean vistas to thick swathes of lush greenery, dry shrublands and sweeping ravines. The absence of international flights has resulted in La Gomera keeping mass tourism at bay; here, in lieu of chain hotels and restaurants, you’ll find a slower, more authentic way of life. These traits have earned La Gomera its nickname 'the island lost in time'. San Sebastián de la Gomera clings prettily to a hillside © Mikadun / Shutterstock Culture, crafts and Columbus San Sebastián is your introduction to La Gomera in many ways. As its capital and port town, this is where all travellers arrive on the island. Here you’ll discover many historical monuments and buildings that begin to build up a tapestry of the island’s past: the Torre del Conde (Count’s Tower), the remains of a 15th-century Gothic-style military fort that played a central role in the defensive history of the island; and the Iglesia de la Virgen de la Asunción, whose mixed Islamic, Gothic and baroque architecture nods to the island’s mixed heritage. San Sebastián played an important role in the story of one of the world’s most well-known explorers: in 1492 Christopher Columbus chose the island’s capital as his last port of call before he set off to discover the New World. Each village and region offers a distinct slice of life on La Gomera. Head to El Cercado to see local potters carefully craft ceramics using techniques inherited from the indigenous inhabitants of the island. Visit Agulo, a chocolate-box town of colourful houses and cobbled streets, for breathtaking ocean views and some of the best-preserved examples of traditional Gomeran architecture. Valle Gran Rey is the main tourist hub, but this hippie haven is a million miles away from the busy mainland resorts. At the bottom of the lush valley you’ll find quiet stretches of beautiful sandy beaches backed by dramatic cliff faces that glow golden as the sun sets. San Sebastián's Torre del Conde dates from 1447 © Louise Bastock / Lonely Planet An island with a view The natural landscapes of La Gomera are one of the main draws to the island. And where better to get an eyeful of this beauty than from one of La Gomera’s 40 signposted viewpoints? That amount may seem excessive for an island this size, but with seemingly endless sweeping valleys, craggy ravines, patchwork palm plantations, Tetris-like banana tree terraces and towering volcanic rock formations (including La Gomera’s own Table Mountain), you’ll wish there were twice as many. The volcanic plug of Roque de Agando © Stian Klo / Lonely Planet Top spots include the Mirador de Abrante, a glass-bottomed platform jutting out over a 400m-high ravine overlooking the village of Agulo and Tenerife’s Teide volcano across the ocean. The Mirador Morro de Agando offers 360-degree views over the Parque Nacional de Garajonay and the impressive Roque de Agando – a volcanic monolith that sprouts abruptly from the greenery into the air. An understated but no less breathtaking experience is the Mirador Risquillos de Corgo. Accessed by a forested trail in the Parque Nacional de Garajonay, the view of the valley and the village below appear as a burst of colour from the treeline. Looking out over Tenerife's volcano El Teide from the Mirador de Abrante © Louise Bastock / Lonely Planet A fairytale forest and a folk legend Shrouded by a low-lying mist and seemingly banished to the peak of the island, Parque Nacional de Garajonay has an almost fairytale-like quality. Indeed, its name comes from the oral legend of two star-crossed lovers, Gara and Jonay, whose parents forbade their union. The elevation and humidity of this cloud forest mean temperatures are cooler here, and in the silence of the trees you’ll feel a world away from the rest of the island. Some 20, 000 years ago these laurel forests dominated Europe and North Africa, and thanks to preservation efforts on La Gomera, Garajonay remains one of the best-preserved subtropical rainforests in Europe. Home to around 400 species of flora and fauna, many endemic to the island, the park sits at the heart of La Gomera’s 600km network of walking trails. With paths weaving across the island, you can DIY your walk with short circular trails, half-day hikes and full-day treks over mountains and along the coast. A footpath winds through the greenery of Parque Nacional de Garajonay © RossHelen / Shutterstock A dialect with a difference One of the most fascinating elements of La Gomera’s cultural heritage is the island’s unique whistling language, Silbo Gomero. The Guanches, the earliest inhabitants of the island, used Silbo Gomero to communicate across the deep ravines and valleys of the island. Whistles could travel up to 5km and were used to carry all sorts of messages, from public announcements and event invitations to the whereabouts of a lost goat. Far more than a set of stock phrases, Silbo Gomero existed as a fully articulated dialect by replicating the characteristic sounds of spoken language. Although it isn’t widely used today, efforts are being made to preserve it. The language has been a compulsory school subject since 1999, and in 2009 it was awarded Unesco’s Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity status. You can check out Silbo demonstrations every Saturday at the Hotel Torre Del Conde in San Sebastián, and every day at Restaurante Las Rosas and at the Mirador de Abrante restaurant in Agulo. The basalt columns of Los Órganos can only be appreciated from the sea © Jens Teichmann / Shutterstock An adventure out to sea Care has been taken to protect the ocean around La Gomera, and as such it has become a hotbed for marine wildlife. Though typically migratory creatures, dolphins can be found here year-round thanks to these conservation efforts. Take an eco-friendly boat trip with Tina and you’re very likely to spot some of the local fauna, from bottlenose and Atlantic spotted dolphins to pilot and sperm whales and loggerhead turtles. Tina has been awarded the Yellow Flag eco-accreditation, and their vessels do not use sonars which adversely affect marine wildlife. Excursions can also be arranged to the Los Órganos rock formation. Formed by ancient lava flumes cooling and contracting, enormous basalt pillars rise from the ocean like the pipes of a church organ. The vertical columns can reach up to 80m high and nearly a metre wide. Fish and papas arrugadas (wrinkly potatoes) are Gomeran staples © Andrei Bortnikau / Shutterstock Traditional La Gomera grub On this fertile land of varied terrain, the local cuisine features an abundance of produce grown or reared on the island or fished from the surrounding seas. Traditional recipes are as simple and soulful as the island itself, with delicacies including watercress soup, almogrote (a crumbly goat’s cheese pâté seasoned with spicy herbs and oil), and miel de palma, a sugary palm syrup used ubiquitously in Gomeran cuisine. Mojos are a staple feature of the Gomeran dinner table. These thick oily sauces come in two varieties: verde (green, usually featuring coriander, parsley and green peppers) and rojo (red, with red chillies and paprika). Slather on a chunk of bread or enjoy with a plate of papas arrugadas (wrinkly, salty potatoes found all over the Canary Islands). Though the industry is small, La Gomera also produces a number of local wines, often rich in colour and full-bodied to taste. Louise travelled to La Gomera with support from La Gomera Tourism.
