THE ISLAND

LANZAROTE, situated approximately 95kms off the west coast of North Africa, is a volcanic island rising out of the deep Atlantic Ocean. It is the most northerly of the 7 Canary Islands and is on the same latitude as Florida and the Red Sea. Lanzarote benefits from a sub-tropical climate with more days of sunshine and fewer days of rain than the other Canary Islands.

Being a volcanic island, the landscape is both dramatic and contrasting and offers the visitor a wide variety of interesting sights by day and night. Only about 45kms long and around 18kms at its widest point, the island is famous for its lunar landscape of almost 300 volcanoes. Views of volcanic mountains, picon covered fields and rocky coastlines are broken up by a large number of golden sandy beaches and an amazing amount of well attended greenery and agriculture. The island has been designated by UNESCO as a Biosphere Reserve.

There are 3 main holiday centres on Lanzarote - Puerto del Carmen, Costa Teguise and Playa Blanca. Puerto Calero is a new developing resort based around the marina complex. Puerto del Carmen is an established resort with a wide variety of shops, restaurants and entertainment. A number of carefully developed tourist attractions are located throughout the island, and the beautiful, natural beaches of golden sand are not to be missed! You will find that Lanzarote is a holiday destination for the whole family
