THE CANARIES, GOMERA

A unique perspective on the world

An episode from the series THROUGH YOUR EYES

Synopsis

The wild island of Gomera is part of the Canary archipelago lost between Morocco and Mauritania. The language spoken here for centuries, Silbo, is unique. Indeed, it is the only whistling language in the world. Another particularity is that on the hills the rain falls horizontally; a natural wonder generated by the primary forest.

In Vueltas, the oldest port on the island, tuna fishermen have a surprise for Sophie: an exceptional encounter with dolphins.
