Activities in Lanzarote

Look no further than Aquapark Costa Teguise if you're seeking for an activity that the kids will enjoy. This exciting water park has a variety of slides, rapids, and whirlpools – everything you need for a great day out! The Rancho Texas Lanzarote Park is another excellent site to visit from your Lanzarote rental. There are spectacular birds of prey here, as well as lovely sea lions and a variety of other creatures. Pony rides, a splash pool, and even cowboy lessons are available for kids.

A Lanzarote villa is the perfect place to spend your vacation if you're a serious golfer. You may enjoy a day of golfing at Lanzarote Golf in Puerto del Carmen or Costa Teguise Golf while taking in the beautiful scenery.

A vacation wouldn't be perfect without some shopping, and you'll be able to do just that when you stay in a Lanzarote vacation villa. Many of the big resorts have extensive shopping malls where you may shop for your favorite brands and save money thanks to tax-free shopping. Costa Teguise, Playa Blanca, Puerto del Carmen, and Playa Honda are all famous vacation destinations.

Away from the crowds, head to one of the smaller resorts for trendy boutiques where you may get one-of-a-kind products and traditional gifts to take home. Discover Arrecife's meandering, narrow lanes and the numerous small stores that line them. Handmade lace, tablecloths, local art, leather goods, and other items can be found here.

Various markets are hosted throughout the year, selling everything from local products to handcrafted jewelry. These vibrant markets are a terrific place to buy unique things while also getting a good deal! The oldest and largest open-air market on the island, Teguise Market, is a delightful way to spend a Sunday morning away from your villa. The entire town comes alive, and the atmosphere is electric as people dig through the merchandise in search of the ideal purchase.

Lanzarote Beaches

Lanzarote's beaches are a true delight, with crystal blue waves, long stretches of sandy beach, and stunning coves. Whether you're a sun worshipper or an all-day swimmer, the pull of the beach will appeal to you from your Lanzarote villa, and you won't be able to resist.

To the north, Costa Teguise is ideal for windsurfing, while surfers and body boarders may be found catching waves at adjacent La Santa and Famara beaches. Costa Teguise and La Santa have tranquil waters that are ideal for beginners, but Famara provides somewhat larger waves for more experienced surfers.

Head to Puerto del Carmen, a bustling beach on Lanzarote's south coast, if you want to be right in the middle of it all. This family-friendly beach is surrounded by superb restaurants, pubs, and facilities, making it ideal for a day out with the family. The kids will enjoy splashing in the shallows, and you will enjoy reading a good book on the sandy shoreline. Everyone comes out on top!

Playa Blanca is another fantastic beach on Lanzarote. Playa Blanca translates to "white beach," and it's obvious to see why when you arrive. White sands stretch out in front of you, drawing you in. It truly is a heaven. You can take a ferry from here to Fuerteventura and discover the sights and sounds of this neighboring island.

Sightseeing in Lanzarote 

Although it may be difficult to leave your fantastic villa rental, this wonderful island has so much natural beauty and so many incredible spots that are just waiting to be discovered. From natural wonders to cultural landmarks, you must spend at least a few days exploring some of the island's most fascinating sights.

Prepare to be stunned by the stunning salt water lagoon and underground caves in Jameos del Agua, located in the north of the island. If you venture inside the caverns, you'll discover not just stalagmites and stalactites, but also a unique cave concert theater. 

The Timanfaya National Park is the finest spot to witness what years of volcanic activity look like on the surface. Even if the volcano underneath you is inactive, temperatures of 400°C-600°C can be found just a few metres below the surface, so you can still feel its heat! At the very top, there are special presentations, and you may spend time exploring the hundred-year-old craters as well as the breath-taking active geysers of the Fire Mountains. It will undoubtedly be an unforgettable experience.

With monuments and museums strewn across the island, Lanzarote's culture can be admired at every step. The Museo del Campesino is a must-see attraction.

Explore the wide Sahara sand beaches that surround the peninsular of Punta de Papagayo in the south.

Take a trip to Fire Mountain for a unique BBQ experience. Forget about charcoal; your steak will be cooked by the volcano's natural heat.

The aqua park at Costa Tequise is a terrific way for the youngsters to cool off and have a fun-filled day.

Visit the Fundación César Manrique, a Lanzarote artist's home created in volcanic bubbles in the rock and now containing paintings by Picasso, Miró, and others.

Travel to Fuerteventura on a glass-bottomed catamaran, keeping an eye out for pods of playful dolphins along the way.

Explore the Cueva de los Verdes and Jameos del Agua, which feature a subterranean lake and a beautiful cave and gallery complex.

Lanzarote Golf is a stunning new golf course. Ron Kirby created this tough 18-hole, par 72 course.

Take a journey to Teguise's historic capital to see the large local market that takes place every Sunday morning.
