Three places to visit in Lanzarote

One of the Canary Islands, Lanzarote is a great place to visit any time of year due to its great weather, lovely beaches, and delicious food, but you will also find that there are plenty of great things to do too.

Here we share three places to visit in Lanzarote that we think will inspire you to travel to this exciting island.

Playa Blanca

The perfect place to head if you just want to chill out and enjoy some beautiful scenery in peace, Playa Blanca is the southernmost town in Lanzarote and offers all that you need for a relaxing break.

Wander aimlessly between boutiques, enjoy drinks in a selection of bars, dine out in sophisticated restaurants, and spend time on the stunning white same beaches. Looking for some action? Head to Playa Dorada where you can choose from a selection of water sports, including jet skiing, parascending, and scuba diving.

Timanfaya National Park

Boasting a diverse landscape that just has to be discovered, Timanfaya National Park is home to the Fire Mountains which were responsible for the volcanic eruptions that hit the island in the 1700s.

These days, you can take a coach or walking tour to see the lava fields and salt marshes, as you are not permitted to wander around the park without a guide, and can even eat in a restaurant that cooks food on grills heated by the volcanoes.

Rancho Texas Park

A great place to visit as a family, Rancho Texas Park in Lanzarote is plenty of fun for adults and children, as it offers both the chance to see wildlife and the opportunity to play in a water park!

Home to everything from armadillos and white tigers to chameleons and snakes, this park boasts both attractions and performances, including those involving birds of prey, sea lions, and dolphins.

You will also find pools where you can swim and sunbathe, amazing water slides, canoes, and lots of water-based games too!
