La Palma sustainable tourism and housing development

Overview

La Palma is developing a strategic model for sustainable tourism aimed at maintaining territorial balance. The plan seeks to increase tourist bed capacity from 17,000 to approximately 30,000, prioritizing non-hotel accommodations like rural houses and traditional dwelling renovations to support local families and preserve the landscape.

As part of the broader discussion regarding the island’s development, a meeting titled “¿Quién puede vivir en La Palma? Un encuentro sobre vivienda, turismo y derecho a quedarse” has been organized to address the housing emergency. The debate will examine the causes and consequences of the housing crisis, specifically focusing on the impact of vacation rentals and the commodification of housing.
