Things to Do in Lanzarote

Caving and Hiking
The most gripping cave systems and lava tunnels
are in Lanzarote. Set northeast is the
mesmerizing Cueva de Los Verdes. It features a
concert hall and multicolored lava formations
sparkling under the light. Further to the coast
is Jameos del Agua where local artist Cesar
Manrique successfully put his magical imagination
to reality, creating an auditorium, bar, and
swimming pool, all underground. The islands
lunar landscapes and hike trails are as
intriguing as its artistic caves. Its terrain
traverse barren geologic formations of colorful
volcanic rocks. Start with the various tracks
in Timanfaya National Park or follow a rewarding
trail in Femes to Papagayo, leading towards the
famous beach.

Exploring Landscapes and Seascapes
The land and seascapes here are unlike any other.
Marvel at the moon-like surface, as well as the
endemic flora and fauna in Timanfaya National
Park while at the back of a camel. But if a
little walking is not a problem, dont miss the
fascinating volcanic experiments at the Fire
Mountains or the fantastic views of a natural
lava environment in Mirador del Rio. Equally
breathtaking are the bizarre-shaped seascapes of
the island. To see huge waves trying to breakdown
formidable cliffs, head to Los Hervideros. For a
spectacular view of a green lagoon cradled by a
volcanic crater which eroded into the sea, visit
Lago Verde and El Golfo.

Beach Hopping and Water Sports
The beaches in Lanzarote range from pure white or
golden fine to pitch black volcanic sand. Aside
from perfect spots to unwind and relax, its rich
turquoise waters and exciting waves offer endless
choices for water sports. With the waters
frequented by Atlantic waves, windsurfing schools
are conveniently located in Costa Teguise, Playa
Blanca, Tias and La Santa. For those with a
penchant for sailing, flock at Marina Rubicon at
Playa Blanca, and at Arrecife. Thrill seekers who
love paragliding, windsurfing, and kite surfing
could head to the shores of Famara Beach. For a
surreal experience, venture into a 12-meter dive
site in the only underwater museum in Europe,
Museo Atlantico.

Cultural Trips
Steeped in tradition and history, the island of
Lanzarote is a great cultural adventure. Just
step into popular museums like Casa Museo Cesar
Manrique in Haria or the Pirate Museum in
Teguise. While in town, bask in the serenity of
old churches like Iglesia Nuestra Senora de
Guadalupe. But for a different experience,
witness Lucha Canaria, traditional Canarian
wrestling. Complete culture-rich tours with the
finest wines from the islands vineyards from San
Bartolome to Uga and Timanfaya. And when the
night is high, chill at the hippest and coolest
wining and dining establishments at Avenida de
Las Playas in Puerto del Carmen, or at the
stylish Marina Rubicon at Playa Blanca.

Family Fun
The kids and kids at heart also have a myriad of
entertainment options and things to do while on
the island. Pretend like a cowboy for a day,
interact with wild birds, dolphins, and other
animals and have fun at the pool in Racho Texas
Park. Meanwhile, plant lovers indulge at the
large display of cacti in Jardin de Cactus. The
amphitheatre-like landscape and the windmill in
the distance make it a picture-perfect
destination. Lastly, those with little kids
delight at the pottery class, donkey rides, and
more barn activities offered in Las Pardelas
Park.
