Holidays in Lanzarote: The area and getting around

Since Lanzarote is an island, the only two ways to reach it are by boat or by plane. Planes are much more common since they are the most convenient option, although boats offer an interesting sea journey. The island is served by one airport, Lanzarote Airport, which is composed of two terminals. From mainland Spain, you can take a boat to Lanzarote from Huelva, which takes around 26 hours. There are also several weekly boats from Gran Canaria to Lanzarote, and the journey takes around 7 hours.

Lanzarote is considered to be one of the most walkable of the Canary Islands. However, the island stretches for 60 kilometres from north to south, and 25 kilometres from west to east, so a car is needed to travel from town to town. Taxis and public buses are also popular ways for getting around the island.

Travellers and activities

Lanzarote is a wonderfully romantic island destination, offering endless empty beaches and an overall dreamy atmosphere. For a unique scenic outdoor adventure, go to Los Hervideros to see the incredible lava formations, cliffs, and stunning sea views. Afterward, enjoy a five-star meal of typical Spanish dishes with a fine-dining twist at Restaurante Lilium, which is arguably the best restaurant on the island for a date night.

Nature lovers will find no shortage of attractions and landscapes to explore on the island. Head over to the open-air Cactus Garden, where you can explore a variety of cactus species growing in a former quarry. Also, see an incredible volcano crater, which is reached by a loop trail in an otherworldly-like landscape at Caldera de los Cuervos.
