Two of the most seriously injured, a 73-year-old man and a 42-year-old man, were airlifted to hospitals on the larger neighbouring Canary Island of Tenerife.
Two people with serious injuries were being treated at Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe Hospital in San Sebastian de La Gomera on the island where the crash took place. Another 23 with minor injuries were also taken there.
Images shared by the Canary Islands government on social media appear to show the bus had come off the road at a hairpin bend.
The GM-2 road where the incident took place is high up, with spectacular views out to sea. La Gomera, the second smallest of the eight Canary Islands, is marked by the steep terrain of volcanic mountains, dense forest and cliffside villages.
A statement from the British embassy in the Spanish capital, Madrid said: "Our thoughts go out to those affected by this tragic incident.
"We are aware of the situation, and we stand ready to support British nationals.
"We are also in touch with local authorities on the ground."
A Foreign Office spokesperson said: "We are supporting the family of a British man who died in the bus accident in the Canary Islands and are in contact with the local authorities."
