LA PAILA DEL PUEBLO

A good local restaurant overlooking the river, which is also a hotel, with about ten cheap rooms, with basic comfort. You will probably meet Segundo Sugasti, the man to know in La Palma for independent travelers. He will give you advice and help you with the logistics if you want to venture into the jungle: find a guide, a horse, equipment, how to reach a particular indigenous community... He also organizes with his lancha tours in the San Miguel Gulf, to see the forts and the dolphins.
