Bringing home souvenirs from La Palma is a pleasure, but the same question always arises: what can I take in my luggage? Here are some practical tips to make sure you return home with the best flavors and memories of the island, without any airport hassle.

If you’re traveling light without checked baggage, choose souvenirs that are small, light, and liquid-free:

  • T-shirts and textiles: practical and space-saving.
  • Almendrados: traditional sweets in small packages – better in your handbag as they’re fragile.
  • Palmero cigars: authentic, lightweight, and easy to carry.
  • Plantain chips: crunchy and perfect for snacking.
  • Small local crafts: soaps, jewelry, mini ceramics.
  • Lava and olivine jewelry: light, original, and easy to pack.
  • Palmero cheese vacuum-packed: if it meets the restrictions.
  • Flor de Sal: light and practical.
  • Mojo powder: the perfect alternative to jars of sauce.

💡 Tip: avoid large glass jars and remember that liquids in carry-on bags must be under 100 ml per container.

If you check your suitcase, you can take larger souvenirs and liquids that won’t pass security in carry-on bags:

  • Wines from La Palma: whites, reds, or the famous Malvasía sweet wine.
  • Artisanal mojos in jars: red, green, or picón, perfect as gifts.
  • Local honeys and jams: unique varieties like tajinaste or avocado.
  • Isla Verde craft beers: with labels inspired by La Palma’s traditions.
  • Ron Miel: in travel size or full-size bottles.
  • And, of course, all the lightweight souvenirs listed above.

💡 Tip: ask for protective packaging in wineries or shops and place bottles in the center of your suitcase.

  • Customs: check the alcohol and tobacco limits allowed in your country.
  • Perfect gifts: wines, pastries, rum, and honey are great to share; jewelry, T-shirts, and crafts make more personal souvenirs.
