Oro
About
Found on La Gomera, Oro occupies Av. del Almirante Colón, 2, 38811 San Sebastián de La Gomera, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, in the island's capital. The shop sits in the main town, where the ferry port and the road network converge.
San Sebastián, Valle Gran Rey, Playa de Santiago, Hermigua, Agulo, Vallehermoso, Alajeró and Chipude are all linked to the capital by road, so reaching the shop from the main resorts is manageable. Visitors rate Oro at 4.6 out of 5 across 63 reviews, a strong showing for a jewellery shop on a small island.
The shop's website, http://gomerajewels.com/, gives a fuller picture of what is on offer. Car ferries run between the larger islands, and faster passenger boats serve the shortest crossings, which makes San Sebastián a natural stop for island hoppers.
The timple, a small five-string instrument, features in Canarian folk music alongside guitars, and the island's musical tradition is part of what visitors remember. Islanders speak with a Canarian accent and vocabulary that visitors notice in daily conversation.
