Lanzarote's extraordinary light is undeniably one of the most beautiful in the world. The visitor will be surprised by the features. This is due, in part, to the colors of the landscape, which are caused by the various dark hues of the lava contrasting with the clarity of the sandy beaches.

El Golfo Canaries             |       Click by POTIER Jean-Louis  from Flickr

The climate is dry and sunny, reflecting the island's easterly location, but low hills are responsible for the lack of green in the landscape, and the sparse vegetation on the island appears to grow miraculously out of nowhere, forming botanical formations that are often very rare. One might expect this desert-like dryness to create an unfriendly landscape, but Lanzarote has the opposite effect; the visitor is left with an inviting impression.

Lanzarote's extraordinary volcanic landscape with a plethora of remarkable places, including Timanfaya National Park, El Golfo, and Los Verdes caves, must be added to the superb, golden sandy beaches. Lanzarote is a tourism model in the world because of its magnificent integration with the environment. Although well-developed, the hotel infrastructure has avoided agglomeration by adopting forms more in keeping with the landscape, such as small housing developments and the use of traditional architecture.

Lanzarote is an island in the Canary Islands where volcanic activity was the most violent, and nature and humanity learned to coexist as few places in the world, forming a unique landscape of special beauty and originality. The entire island has been designated a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO.

Lanzarote's spectacular volcanic upheavals, with over 300 cones and a plethora of shapes and colors of lava, are relatively recent; two eruptions in the 18th and 19th centuries covered the center, of the island, molding a landscape that resembles another planet, a fact that has made it a frequent setting for science-fiction films.

Lanzarote is one of Spain's seven Canary Islands (eight if you count the tiny island of La Graciosa), which are located in the Atlantic Ocean about 60 miles off the coast of North West Africa.

The flight from the UK to Lanzarote takes approximately four hours (this can occasionally be faster with favorable wind speed), and the Canaries are on Greenwich Mean Time, so there is no need to adjust your watch upon arrival.

If you trace your finger down Morocco's coastline, you'll notice that the Canaries are more southerly than well-known winter sunspots like Marrakech, Casablanca, and Agadir. The Canary Islands are also close to the Western Sahara, which helps to explain the dry, arid climate of the eastern Canary Islands like Lanzarote and Fuerteventura.

Despite being nowhere near Europe, the Canary Islands are still part of the European Union because they are owned by Spain this is the furthest south you can go and still be technically within the EU. Furthermore, the islands are located on the same latitude line (37 degrees) as parts of Florida and Mexico, making them ideal for tourism.

Lanzarote has a wide range of accommodations, including resorts, luxury hotels, private villas, and more. The majority of them are clustered together as part of the island's responsible tourism strategy, which aims to reduce the industry's negative impact on natural resources.

Some of the most beautiful beaches can be found in the tourist areas of Costa Teguise, Playa Blanca, and Puerto del Carmen. The Charcones de Janubio is a swimmable series of crystal-clear pools of water near the coast surrounded by rocks that travelers can discover.

Culture enthusiasts will appreciate the island's numerous art galleries and museums, as well as the blending of natural wonders with art at one or more of the Centres for Art, Culture, and Tourism.

The Legacy of César Manrique

It's impossible to discuss traditional architecture in Lanzarote without mentioning César Manrique. This twentieth-century artist, designer, sculptor, and architect devoted his life to the island where he was Malpas rediscovering the beauty of Lanzarote's landscape and culture. The islanders began to appreciate their architecture of white walls, green windows, and unique chimneys as a result of their determination and originality. Many of the Montanaures that are now examples of the harmony that can exist between architecture and nature were designed by the artist, including the Monumento al Campesino (Monument to the Peasant), Jameos del Agua, Mirador del Ro (lookout), and the Cactus Garden.

Montañas del Fuego

All of this place is called “Montañas del Fuego” (Mountains of Fire) and has been declared a National Park. A go-to consists of a bus tour through most territory places of this mysterious lava mass, as well as a demonstration of the heat though preserved by the skill of the earth, 350ºC (662ºF) completely an inch or so from the ground, successful of burning a bundle of straw in seconds or grilling a steak.

Playa Blanca

Playa Blanca, located on the southern coast, is a tourist destination built around an animal fishing port. Nearby are the most beautiful beaches on the island, the idyllic coves of Papagayo with white sand and crystal-clear waters, only accessible by dirt roads and preferably with a 4-wheel drive vehicle. The relative isolation of this string of beaches has kept the majority of them untouched.

Cueva de Los Verdes

Cueva de Los Verdes is worthy of a visit and is something that not only offers a unique experience for those looking for something ais little different but it is also ideal for those wanting to find out more about the history of Lanzarote. The cave is the result of the eruption of the Volcan de la Corona and was used as protection against centuries in the 16th and 17th centuries. However, its use today is much more peaceful.

El Mirador del Rio

Although many beautiful views can be enjoyed in Lanzarote, one of the most popular is the El Mirador del Rio, and with good reason. Translating to ‘lookout,’ the mirador lived up to its name, as it helped Spanish settlers look out for potential invasions against pirates. Despite the location being used to counteract attacks in the past, Cesar Manrique was keen to use the space for more peaceful means and used his architectural expertise to create the alluring space that so many visitors enjoy to this day.

Timanfaya National Park

Timanfaya National Park is one of Lanzarote’s most vibrant and popular tourist hotspots. This can be attributed to the unique landscape, made up of dormant volcanoes and spent cones. Not only are there plenty of opportunities to take pictures and look out the wondrous landscape, but you’re also able to fully embrace the unique ambiance while enjoying a meal in the famous El Diablo restaurant, which is known for using the heat from a dormant volcano to cook its delicious cuisine. Visitors can also find out more about the park using the pre-recorded tour guides scattered around the park, as well as additional information from tour guides.
