One-way hike from Playa Santiago to San Sebastian.

Take along enough water as there are no more opportunities before arriving at San Sebastian (If necessary go to El Cabrito & ask for water).
Count 7 hours to complete the hike.
Swimming opportunity at Playa de la Guancha & San Sebastian.
In San Sebastian you can catch the 17h45 bus 3 to bring you back to Playa de Santiago. Or ask for a taxi at the harbor.

The trail is well maintained and is marked with white-red stripes as GR 132. It is part of the 'Trip around the island of La Gomera'. The descent in the Barranco Juan de Vera is a variation and is not marked as GR.
