7 Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in El Hierro That You Shouldn't Miss

June 11, 2021 Nobuko Falco

The volcanic island El Hierro has evolved from an ancient civilization to a prime (yet still pristine) destination for elite divers and beach lovers who crave remote beauty. The waters are calm and brimming with unusual sea life, while aboveground the landscape is peppered with ancient and twisted trees. Explore the lovely villages and hilly stone-laid paths on foot, then feast on rustic meals of fresh fish, local cheeses and wild herbs.

Centro de Interpretacion de la Reserva de La Biosfera

Reviewed By MassimilianoG801 - Arezzo, Italy

I visited this "Centro de Interpretacion" on November 8th, 2019: I had planned to stay over there 20 minutes and ended by remaining for more than 2 hours. The display is great with much information about the shaping of the social and natural environment of El Hierro across time. The exhibit - in Spanish and English - also includes small videos and gives insight over several unusual aspects of El Hierro, e.g. the way how the populace had fun and danced in the past, when El Hierro was one of the most isolated places in Spain. A special note of thanks to the staff - in particular to Mr. Luis - who during my visit took the time to delve into and explain in depth the meaning of many items on display and added even more information: he is a very knowledgeable and kind person, passionate about his role, about the "Centro de Interpretacion" where he works and more in general about El Hierro. I highly recommend everyone in El Hierro to find the time to visit the "Centro de Interpretacion de la Reserva de La Biosfera" in Isora (open Tuesdays-Sundays 10.00 am-06.00 pm; closed on Mondays), which may be coupled with a visit to El Mirador De Isora, with spectacular views on Las Playas cliffs.
