Lanzarote – Canaries Islands – Spain
Green Lagoon at El Golfo
The Island Lanzarote in Spain is dominated of volcano landscapes. On the Island which belongs to the Canaries archipelago are more than 300 crater, 1824 was the last eruption and bring three new volcanos, the Tao, Tinguaton and the Chinero. The highest Mountain on this Island of Spain in Europe is the Penas del Chache with about 680 meter. I was here 3 times on holidays on this beautiful spot in the Atlantic Ocean. The highlights for tourists are the Timanfaya national park, the green lagoon (called as well the green lake) of El Golfo, Uga where you can ride camels, Arrieta where you can see rare crabs at Los Jameos del Aqua, Costa Teguise where you can play Golf in your holidays, La Geria which is famous for great wine, in Haria you will recognize 1000 Palms and many more destinations make Lanzarote to my favorite on the Canaries Islands. The Capital of Lanzarote is Arrecife, on the Playa del Reducto beach you are nearly the onliest tourist. If you like it more touristic: Playa del Carmen and Playa Blanca will be the right destination for your travel tour or for your holidays here on Lanzarote.
Camel at Uga
If you want to go scuba diving, than you need for sure a minimum 5mm wetsuit. The water temperature of the Atlantic is about 18 degree in January and 23 in August. The best way to travel here on this island of Spain is by car, you will see many possibilities to rent a cheap one to explore the beautiful island of Cesar Manrrique who made a lot of arts and sculptures here.
