Lanzarote has some of the most spectacular beaches in the Canary Islands. From golden sandy coves to black volcanic sand beaches, each offers a different experience:
In summer, these beaches are perfect for enjoying the sun, swimming in crystal-clear waters, or practicing water sports like snorkeling or paddle surfing.
If there is one place that defines Lanzarote’s volcanic essence, it is the Timanfaya National Park. This almost lunar landscape is the result of volcanic eruptions that occurred between the 18th and 19th centuries.
In summer, a guided tour of the park will allow you to discover its geological formations, feel the earth’s heat on the Volcano Route, and enjoy unique panoramic views. Additionally, you can try food cooked with volcanic heat at the restaurant El Diablo, designed by César Manrique.
To escape the summer heat, one of the best options is to venture into the Cueva de los Verdes, an impressive volcanic tunnel formed by the eruption of La Corona Volcano.
This place, with its play of light and shadows, offers a fascinating tour through underground galleries full of history and mystery. Moreover, inside it houses a natural auditorium where concerts are held, a unique experience for music lovers and for the special acoustics of the place.
The Cactus Garden, one of César Manrique’s latest works, is an oasis amid Lanzarote’s volcanic landscape. With more than 4,500 specimens of cacti from around the world, this garden is a botanical jewel showing the flora’s ability to adapt in an arid environment.
Strolling along its paths, admiring the variety of species, and enjoying the tranquility of the place is an ideal plan for those looking for a different activity on the island.
Lanzarote’s cuisine is another great attraction. In summer, enjoying a meal by the sea or a dinner under the stars is an unforgettable experience. Some dishes you cannot miss trying are:
