About the area

Lanzarote is the most easterly of Spain’s Canary Islands and direct flights to its international airport take around 4 hours from the UK. It’s synonymous with volcanoes and much of its inland landscape is dominated by its volcanic, moon-like landscape which also produces some unique tasting wine. Puerto del Carmen is the island’s most popular tourist destination. The town has one of Lanzarote’s finest beaches, Playa Grande – which stretches for half a mile and runs alongside a busy promenade filled with places to eat, drink and shop. There’s also Playa Chica, a charming bay popular with swimmers and families, and Playa Pocillos which is great for watersports. So there really is something for everyone in this sun-soaked spot.
