Gomero

Gomero is a demonym for a person from La Gomera, one of the Canary Islands, Spain. The feminine form is gomera, and the plural forms are gomeros and gomeras. The term is used in local speech and in broader Spanish to identify residents of the island.

La Gomera is a volcanic island in the Atlantic Ocean, part of the Canary Islands archipelago off the northwest coast of Africa. It is known for its rugged terrain, laurel forests, and deep ravines. The island's central massif hosts Garajonay National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1999, which preserves a subtropical laurel forest that once covered much of the archipelago.

Cultural aspects associated with Gomero include Silbo Gomero, a whistled language used to communicate across ravines and valleys; it has been inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

The island's capital and principal port is San Sebastián de La Gomera. As a surname, Gomero exists in Spanish-speaking countries, and the term may appear in historical or contemporary names and in fiction.
