What to see in Lanzarote

Lanzarote, the easternmost of the Canary Islands, may be smaller compared to its counterparts, but it boasts numerous captivating attractions, making it a truly enchanting destination. Blessed with idyllic weather year-round, it transcends the typical sun-and-beach experience. Nestled in a paradisiacal setting, Lanzarote offers an array of enticing locations that draw in thousands of tourists throughout the year. Its 905 km2 exude rich culture and history from every corner.

The island's volcanic terrain presents striking lunar landscapes, adorned with rugged cliffs, secluded beaches, vineyards, and charming villages with whitewashed houses, inhabited by warm and welcoming locals.

While Lanzarote is undeniably geared towards tourism, it has steadfastly preserved its cultural heritage and prioritized environmental conservation. This commitment was exemplified by its most influential figure, César Manrique (1919-1992), who implemented conservation measures that endure to this day. Designated as a "Biosphere Reserve" by UNESCO in 1993, Lanzarote is unequivocally a paradise with no shortage of must-see locations.

The island's compact size and linear shape ensure that accessing its main tourist attractions is convenient and efficient from any location. Navigating Lanzarote is a breeze, allowing visitors to make the most of their time exploring its wonders.
