About Us | About Playa Blanca | About Lanzarote

Palm trees, miles of golden sandy beaches, fascinating lava landscapes, exquisite Canarian cuisine and an almost perfect year round climate - Lanzarote ensures a unique holiday experience.
UNESCO has declared Lanzarote a World Biosphere Reservation for its protection and conservation. The island is completely different from other Canarian islands due to its vast coverage of solidified lava and volcanic rock and the influences of the Great Canarian Architect and Artist, Cesar Manrique whose hard work and determination helped in creating the charming island that we see today.

The island has many interesting places to visit, you can travel from the North to the South of the island in less than 2 hours. Explore vast caves at Cueva de los Verde (Green Caves), the amazing Timanfaya National Park which will no doubt leave you speechless with its lava landscape and many volcano craters - enjoy the peace and tranquillity of Jameos De Aqua or spend fun filled days at Rancho Texas Theme Park or the Large Water Park in Costa Teguise.

There are many small villages nestled in the islands mountainous landscape, here you will get an insight into typical Canarian life. Off the beaten track, you will find small bars offering excellent tapas, canarian cuisine and local made wines.

The islands capital, Arrecife (meaning reef) is best described as a bustling, friendly and unpretentious city. It offers a wealth of duty free shopping and hosts an outdoor market offering an interesting array of arts and crafts which is located along the seafront promenade on Wednesday mornings. There are a vast array of tapas bars and restaurants offering all types of cuisine including the notable Five Star Gran Hotel Restaurant located right on the top floor of the only high rise building on Lanzarote…..a perfect place to wine and dine whilst taking in the stunning views and spectacular sunsets. There are plenty of interesting places to visit here, including Museums, Art Exhibitions, Castillos (castles or forts built to protect the island from invading pirates) and the beautiful Church of San Gines.
All in all, Lanzarote offers a truly memorable holiday not only for its impressive scenery but also for the vast array of interesting places to visit and the wealth of activities on offer.

Lanzarote is an island that you will never forget - it really is exceptional!!!
