With a serene atmosphere, Ribeira Primeira Park is characterised by the dense vegetation of the sub-tropical humid Laurissilva forest, around 20 million years old, consisting mainly of species endemic to Macaronesia. In addition, Ribeira Primeira, whose name refers to the idea of pure and fresh water, gives this area the perfect atmosphere to enjoy relaxing moments.
