LA GOMERA
Adopted with occasion of the Canary Islands Day, 30 May 1999. The objects in the upper left corner are: a "ganigo" (earthenware vasel typical of the aboriginal culture) proper on a white silhouette of the island, and a white square sail with a green cross "patée", representing Columbus' caravels, which made an intermediate stop at the island, and that is why it is called "the Columbian island".
Previously, the following two flags had been seen in some occasion, with unofficial character and surely with the only purpose of completing the set of seven islands when La Gomera was the only island with no flag
