La Palma's mild subtropical climate keeps warm, sunny weather through most of the year, and June to September is the hottest and busiest season, so booking ahead helps in summer. Canarian cooking relies on fresh seafood, goat cheese and papas arrugadas with mojo sauce, a tradition diners encounter across the islands. Flights connect the Canaries to mainland Spain, while ferries and short flights link the islands to each other. Spanish is the everyday language here, and a handful of words goes a long way when ordering.
