La Gomera, La Palma, Hierro - Too much of the same?

Would visiting all three be repetitious?
What about Fuerteventura and Lanzarote? Are they also too similar?

All the Canaries are different.

Fuerteventura has the best beaches. You will find a lot of sand dunes, desert-like sections and volcanoes.

Lanzarote has a very bizarre scenery with a fantastic volcano park.

La Palma is small, with a picturesque historic town.

Tenerife has the tallest volcano, exotic vegetation, diverse scenery but few beaches (and mass tourism at the southern tip).

Gran Canaria has mediterranean-looking scenery, a mountain range and sand dunes.
