Timanfaya National Park

At the visitor’s center located in “Fire Mountains” you can enjoy demonstrations of the park’s volcanic activity. You will have the privilege of feeling the warmth of Timanfaya as a result of its characteristic volcanic activity. You will be able to take a deeper tour by bus or camel.

Jameos del agua

This is a show formed from the mixture of volcanic rock and water. One of the eruptions that occurred on the island formed the jameos inside a volcanic tube. The result was a phenomenal underground lake created by seawater seepage. This natural spectacle will leave you speechless.

Beach days in Famara

You can’t visit Lanzarote without enjoying the Famara beach, the best beach on the island with 6 kilometers long. This beach is perfect for water sports such as surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing.

A few meters from this beach you will find our  Lanzarote Surf school. In our accommodations you will enjoy an incredible family atmosphere and paradisiacal views.

La laguna de los ciclos

It is also known as the green lake because that is the color of its waters. It is located on a black sand beach covered by a brown mountain offering a true contrast of colors. The color of its waters is produced by the level of sulfur in them. It is considered by many to be the most picturesque place on Lanzarote.

Los hervideros

It is a cliff area that offers a unique spectacle. In its caves the ocean usually enters with enough force hitting and jumping in the natural enclave. Admiring the force of the ocean can be truly pleasurable.
