Tenerife returns to a life where every day is a holiday
December 19, 2021. Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Vesti Tourism.
On the streets of Tenerife these days you can meet parades of musicians and dancers – rehearsals of the most important event for the islanders and guests of Tenerife – the annual Carnival – have begun.
In 2022, the traditional Carnival in Tenerife will take place from February 23 to March 5, 2022. The theme of the Carnival is “Science Fiction”!
The registration of those who will take part in the dress contest, which will select the Carnival Queen, is in full swing. More information on the official website of the Tenerife Carnival at the link.
Miradores and the best Instagram points on the map of Tenerife
The island of Tenerife rises above sea level, and from almost anywhere on the island a breathtaking view opens up. There are many viewing platforms on the island, which are called miradors in Spanish. But in order to properly plan a trip and organize a trip that will leave the most vivid impressions, you should study the list of observation platforms in order to choose those that, taking into account the season and time of visit, will allow you to collect a collection of the most successful pictures for Instagram.
Teide is not only the highest point on the island, but in all of Spain, and the third largest volcano in the world. The road to the Teide is an amazing sight, but the most impressive view will open at the top of the funicular. It is important to remember that clouds that will be under your feet when you climb the peak of the volcano can prevent you from enjoying the views, so it is worth planning an ascent to Teide on a clear sunny day.
Halfway between Santa Cruz and Puerto de la Cruz, El Sauzal is a charming and quiet village with a magnificent view of the Acentejo rocky coastline and the Atlantic Ocean. You can see the exact location on the map. Next to the observation deck there is a cafe-bar with a terrace, so you can look at the scenery while enjoying a cup of coffee or dessert. Also, among other attractions of El Sauzal is the House of Honey and Wine, where the grape museum is located, as well as tastings of the best samples of these products on the island.
Humboldt Viewpoint (Mirador de Humboldt)
The Humboldt Viewpoint offers breathtaking views of the La Orotava Valley with its endless banana plantations, as well as the municipalities of Puerto de la Cruz and Los Realejos. Here you can also take pictures with the monument to Alexander von Humboldt, a German naturalist, traveler and geographer, after whom the observation deck is named. You can see the exact location on the map.
Dracaena Park (Parque del Drago)
The Millennium Dracaena is probably the most recognizable landmark of Icod de los Vinos . This plant is also called the “dragon tree” because the resin of this tree is a rich dark red color. In fact, the age of the tree in Icod de los Vinos is estimated at only 800 years, but it is considered one of the oldest and most important natural, cultural and historical symbols of the Canary Islands. Around the tree there is a park with small dracaena, cacti and milkweeds.
Los Gigantes Cliffs (Acantilados de los Gigantes)
The Los Gigantes Cliffs are part of the Anaga Natural Park, in some places they reach a height of 600 meters above sea level and look almost vertical even when viewed from below. The depth of the sea at the foot of the rocks reaches 30 meters, the bottom here is incredibly beautiful and varied, and the water is crystal clear. It attracts lovers of diving, snorkeling and kayaking. For impressive photos, you can go to the westernmost point of the island – Teno Lighthouse, to take photos with a view of the cliffs or, taking a kayak with you on a trip, take selfies passing by the majestic cliffs.
Masca mountain village (Caserío de Masca)
Masca mountain village is still far from civilization, electricity has appeared here quite recently, and the roads passing through the village are still unpaved. Surrounded by steep ridges, for many years the only means of communication with the outside world was the Guanche Road, connecting Masca with the nearest city of Santiago del Teide. It is thanks to this remoteness that the village has been preserved in its original form. Brickwork, wood, conceptual simplicity and complete harmony with the environment have made the village of Masca a real gem of the Rural de Teno.
La Laguna Old Town
La Laguna was the first capital of Tenerife for 200 years and the first city in Spain not built as a fortress. But even now the city is considered the spiritual and cultural center of the island. The city center has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You can walk around it in just an hour, but thanks to the bright colorful buildings, the walk can take up to half a day.
Lercalo, Salazar and Nava Palaces, Adelantado or Concepción Square, Leal Theater deserve special attention. It’s always noisy and crowded here. And local bars and cafes offer the famous specialties fruta de tapas la laguna, which should certainly become part of the mandatory program.

25 of the Most Wheelchair Accessible Beaches in the World
There is a broad range of wheelchair accessible beaches throughout the world, from a variety within the United States to internationally in some of the most popular vacation destinations. Finding a beautiful beach to visit is fairly easy depending on where you’d like to travel, but finding information about the accessibility can be difficult.
Many beaches offer boardwalks, ramps, and assistive equipment to help wheelchair users enjoy the sand and shore. These top 25 beaches are some of the most wheelchair accessible beaches in the world and are perfect for a vacation destination because of their wheelchair accessibility.
Wheelchair Accessible Beaches in the United States
There are several amazing beaches along the coasts of the United States, and many of these beaches are wheelchair accessible, offering a destination that everyone can enjoy. The main accessibility features of these beaches include wider paved paths and handicap parking, while some may have accessibility equipment, ramps, and boardwalks.
1: Santa Monica and Venice Beach in California
Located on the west coast of the United States, California boasts one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world. Many people are familiar with hot spots such as Santa Monica and Malibu. Those offer boardwalks and ramps, but are crowded much of the time due to their popularity as a travel destination for surfing, sunny weather and the beach life. Another thing that Santa Monica offers is a very eclectic mix of people. I’ve even had Cheetos thrown at me by a homeless man on the Santa Monica Pier before. No lie.
Santa Monica and Venice Beach are very popular tourist destinations in California, and they also happen to be very wheelchair accessible. While they do get very crowded, Santa Monica offers an accessible beach map as well as all-terrain wheelchairs. Venice Beach offers beach wheelchairs as well, usually near the lifeguard towers. The best way to visit these beaches is to call ahead to reserve a wheelchair or arrive early in the morning. Most Southern California beaches are beautiful in the morning hours and can be less crowded at this time.
2: Rehab Point in Oxnard, California
Rehab Point
Rehab Point in Oxnard features a paved path that is approximately 900 feet long. The path winds around sand dunes, offering great views of the ocean along the way, and you shouldn’t have a lap full of Cheetos afterwards either. The Rehab Point Project was completely designed with wheelchair users in mind, so everyone can visit the ocean. The concrete paths offer plenty of space to enjoy the area.
3: Virginia Beach in Virginia Beach, Virginia
Virginia Beach
Located on the other side of the country, the east coast state of Virginia boasts some of the most picturesque beaches to be seen. Virginia Beach, in particular, is quite popular as a tourist destination and one of the best wheelchair accessible beaches. Boardwalks span much of the terrain, making travel easy and convenient. There are a few levels on the parking deck that offer direct access to the boardwalk so be sure to look for those when you go.
Several Virginia beaches also offer beach wheelchair rentals, but be sure to call ahead to reserve them. Virginia Beach does still offer free use of beach wheelchairs that were used in their pilot program a few years ago. They only have two though, so make sure to reserve them in advance.
Beach wheelchairs can be borrowed for free at several spots along the boardwalk. These wheelchairs are offered on a first come, first serve basis. The three beach access points with free beach wheelchair rentals are 2nd Street, 17th Street, and 24th Street. These beaches also have handicap restrooms. Several other beach access points have ramps and extended wooden walkways to enjoy the beach without a beach wheelchair.
4: Hanauma Bay in Honolulu, Hawaii
Hanauma Bay
This beach is located on the Hawaiian island of Oahu. Hanauma Bay is a state park that was restored to its “curved bay” in 1990, creating a bountiful marine ecosystem in the area. This is a very popular snorkeling destination which is what led to its deterioration. Now the site is available to enjoy once again, with a heavy emphasis on conservation and protecting the land.
As a popular site, the beach is closed every Tuesday to allow the fish to naturally feed. The visitor population is also closely monitored and regulated to keep the beach in good condition.
They offer free use of its specially equipped beach wheelchairs for users with special needs. Wet or dry sand is easy to navigate with these special chairs. All-terrain wheelchairs are available at select beaches throughout the Hawaiian islands. The best way to rent or borrow an all-terrain wheelchair is to contact the ADA coordinator for the specific county.
5: Lydgate Beach Park in Kauai, Hawaii
The beaches on other Hawaiian islands also offer all-terrain wheelchairs, including select beaches on Kauai. For those looking for a more local beach experience, try Lydgate Beach Park on Kauai. The beach is a smaller, rock enclosed pond which keeps the waves small, creating a reef pond. This is a good place for a calmer ocean experience.
The park itself has concrete walking paths with amazing views of the open ocean. The pond offers calm waters from swimming, wading, or sitting, and with an all-terrain wheelchair, you can explore the whole area. This park also has restrooms, showers, and picnic space for a fun, relaxing day at the beach. Without an all-terrain wheelchair, you can still explore most of the park, enjoy the view, and picnic. To rent or borrow an all-terrain wheelchair, contact the County’s ADA coordinator.
.
6: Kure Beach in Wilmington, North Carolina
Wilmington is a great place to explore not only the city, but also the parks and beaches. Wilmington itself has two wheelchair accessible parks with unique playground equipment or athletic fields. Hugh MacRae Park is a very popular park and has accessible playground equipment including a Liberty Wheelchair Swing. This swing is designed to support wheelchairs and the keys can be borrowed at the Parks & Gardens office.
Olsen Park is home to The Miracle Field, which is a special rubberize turf that allows those with mobility limitations to play a variety of sports. This field also gives wheelchair users space to navigate freely. This park is also where Miracle Playground is located, another accessible playground with unique equipment.
Wilmington has several island beaches, including Kure Beach, which offers free beach wheelchair rentals through the local fire department. These wheelchairs can be rented for a week at a time. Kure Beach has three wheelchair ramps for beach access, making it the perfect beach to visit for accessibility.
Carolina Beach has three WaterWheel beach wheelchairs that are free to the public. These beach wheelchairs are different from standard beach wheelchairs and allow the user to sit lower to the ground. These chairs are made of stainless steel and are often used to feel the ocean and even transfer to a surfboard.
.
7: Myrtle Beach in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
There are three different beaches in Myrtle Beach that offer beach wheelchairs for accessibility. The entire area of Myrtle Beach prioritizes accessibility, wanting all visitors and residents to be able to enjoy the area.
All beach wheelchairs are available for free, with multiple beach access points at the Grand Stand. The beach wheelchairs are available on a first come, first serve basis but can also be reserved. With a reservation, this ensures that your beach wheelchair will be delivered to your location, if the weather cooperates. Beach wheelchairs are only available until 5pm, but can be delivered as early as 9am.
Myrtle Beach has 31 wheelchair accessible beach access points. Several offer beach ramps, while others are completely accessible. There is a resource to help navigate the access points at Myrtle Beach as well as at North Myrtle Beach and Surfside Beach.

8: John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park in Key Largo, Florida
The beach is accessible via ramps and wooden walkways. However, one of the strong appeals to this area for disabled travelers is the ability to go snorkeling and diving. A few local companies specialize in outfitting wheelchair users for underwater experiences and even have beach friendly wheelchairs for sale or rent. Boats feature lifts for easy transfer on and off, making this a great, safe way to explore the underwater sea life.
One option for water adventures in Key Largo is Tranquil Adventures, which is a fishing vessel that is specifically equipped for wheelchairs. There is a lift to lower disabled passengers into the water for shallow water snorkeling and swimming. On board are also wheelchair accessible bathrooms, which is something many other excursions and boats don’t offer. Many state and marine parks through the Florida Keys are wheelchair accessible including John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park.
.
9: Gulf Shores Beach in Gulf Shores, Alabama
Gulf Shores in Alabama is another great wheelchair accessible beach destination because of the city’s priority to make their beaches more wheelchair friendly. The city has recently added a 20 foot wide concrete promenade along with access mats on the beach.
Access mats are on both the east and west ends of the beach, giving wheelchair users an opportunity to enter the sand without a beach wheelchair. The access mats stop short of the water to avoid the natural slope and give wheelchair users space to get closer to the ocean.
There are also beach wheelchairs available at the Beach Safety office at Gulf Place Public Beach. These are available on a first come, first serve basis. Both Beach Safety Officers and Lifeguards can provide assistance with accessibility while visiting the beach.
.
10: Tybee Island Beach in Tybee Island, Georgia
The beaches at Tybee Island are designed for everyone to enjoy, no matter their accessibility requirements. There are both ramps and Mobimats, or mobility mats, to allow wheelchairs access to the sand.
In addition to the paths and Mobimats, Tybee Island offers beach wheelchairs for free rental depending on their availability. Wheelchairs can be found at the lifeguard station near Tybee Island Marine Science Center. Wheelchair availability can be confirmed if you call ahead before your trip to the beach. This will give you an opportunity to reserve a wheelchair for your visit. It’s clear that Tybee Island is working diligently to ensure their beachfront is wheelchair accessible, which makes this a great beachy destination.
.
11: Stearns Park Beach in Ludington, Michigan
Stearns Beach in Ludington is one of the most popular beaches in Michigan, making it a great tourist destination as well as a wheelchair accessible beach. Knowing how popular this beach is, the city worked with Disability Connections of West Michigan to make Stearns Beach more accessible for all.
The first step was installing accessible walkways at the beach. These walkways stretch from the North Concessions Stand to 300 yards down the beach to the water. There’s another south walkway that extends from the concrete to the pier and down to the beach. A third walkway runs down the middle of the beach, giving plenty of access through the sand as a way to visit the water and enjoy the view.
These walkways are just the beginning of adapting the most popular beach in Michigan to be accessible. This is a great start and gives many the opportunity to enjoy the beachfront, water, and natural landscape.
.
12: South Padre Island beaches in South Padre Island, Texas
The beaches on South Padre Island are a destination, people from all over the world visit and so there are many accessibility elements in place so everyone can enjoy the space. There are a total of 18 beach access points with Mobimats for easy access and 4 of these access points are completely wheelchair accessible. Many of the access points use wide wooden ramps to allow walk-over or wheelchair access over the sand to get closer to the shoreline.
The beaches also have several Mobi-Chair units, that is amphibious wheelchairs for accessing both the sandy beach as well as the water. Half of the beach accesses use Mobimats and the addition of Mobi-Chairs allows South Padre Island to offer wheelchair accessibility to all. To reserve or rent a Mobi-Chair, contact the South Padre Island Fire Department.
With these accessibility modifications, South Padre Island is known as one of the most wheelchair accessible beach destinations in all of Texas. The use of ramps, walkways, Mobimats, and the availability of Mobi-Chairs gives wheelchair users an opportunity to explore the beach, get closer to the water, and even splash in the shallows.
.
13: Santa Barbara, California
Another great destination for relaxed beaches is Santa Barbara. The wide stretch of beachfront is lined with paved paths and several stops for snacks, dining, and relaxing. There are a few ramps leading into the sand as well as covered pavilions and beachside restrooms. Depending on where you visit, the beach may have accessible equipment, but mainly this public beach is available like a public park. There’s several parking lots and large walkways.
Beyond the beach there’s a quaint town with State Street for dining, shopping, and exploring as well as Stearns Wharf for a great view of the ocean. The Wharf also offers unique dining and shopping, perfect for a day at the beach and exploring the city. The farther you get into the downtown, the less wheelchair friendly the sidewalks are, but most of the paths along the beach are wide enough to accommodate the foot traffic and gives everyone space to enjoy the view.
.
International
If traveling abroad is more your style, there are some amazing wheelchair accessible beaches around the globe. The following were chosen because they not only offer solid accessibility but also are beautiful destinations to enjoy sight-seeing, food and dining, tours, and views.
.
14: A-One Pattaya Beach Resort, Thailand
Pattaya Beach
One of the more popular tourist destinations for globetrotters (and my number one dream destination!), A-One Pattaya offers luxury and quality at every turn. This beach resort was designed specifically with wheelchair users in mind.
The hotel itself has a variety of wheelchair accessibility from the ramp in the car park to the seated desks for check in and a lowered elevator panel for easy access and visibility. The entire property is connected by ramps that stretch out over the water connecting the massive property.
All of the rooms are accessible and the beach offers ramp and boardwalk access. This is one of the few resorts in Thailand that has disabled travelers in mind. All these wheelchair accessible elements make this resort a great international destination for enjoying the beach and the weather.
.
15: Nassau Beach in New Providence, Bahamas
The Bahamas is a popular cruise destination, which can be a great wheelchair accessible vacation. Choosing to cruise to the Bahamas is often a more accessible option, as the cruise line port is very wheelchair friendly compared to navigating your own transportation to Nassau. The port offers a smooth transition from the ship to land and as a destination there are many wheelchair accessible activities along with wheelchair accessible van transportation. Be sure to book your transportation in advance, maybe even months in advance to get your shuttle to the beach.
The beaches in Nassau are more wheelchair accessible than other cruise ship port beaches. These have wooden boardwalks to allow wheelchair users access to the space and to get closer to the water. The boardwalk extends into the water, allowing wheelchair users to roll into the water. Beach wheelchairs are also available to explore the sand as well as the shore. There’s even beach excursions like swimming with dolphins that are wheelchair accessible, depending on your ability.
.
16: Sirens Resort, Loutraki, Greece
Sirens Resort
Sirens offers one of the best wheelchair travel experiences in the world. This Mediterranean resort in Loutraki, Greece is equipped with wheelchair accessible rooms throughout as well as showers that offer roll in access. The property features nice wide walkways that make navigation easy. It also has the distinction of being one of the only resorts in the world that offers direct access to the ocean. A ramp extends into the sea. Yes, it really is as epic as it sounds! You can roll right into the ocean for a total immersion experience, but I recommend not doing so in a powered chair unless you want a bit of a shock.
The beach is a resort style beach with plenty of wheelchair accessible accommodations. The highlight is the sea-access ramp which is wide enough to allow manual sea-wheelchairs entry directly into the sea. A sea-wheelchair is provided to each guest at no rental fee or extra cost, allowing all visitors to experience the wonders of the Greek Sea. The beach is fully accessible including sun umbrellas and lounge chairs as well as covered cabanas. The paved paths through the garden make it easy to explore the entire resort and truly get to experience all the wonders of the beach.

The bathrooms are also accessible with lower sinks, grab bars, and roll-in showers. The restaurants are all wheelchair accessible which makes it easy to choose your favorites and dine in luxury.
The 7 miles of beach runs parallel to the resort and some rooms even have beach access directly from their door.

.
18: Freedom Shores, Isla Aguada, Mexico
Freedom Shores
A war veteran who became quadriplegic after a diving accident created this resort property and the entire development was crafted with wheelchair users in mind, making it the place to go if you’re looking for a tropical Mexican getaway. Beach access at this 4 star resort is made possible via a large promenade designed specifically so disabled travelers could enjoy the beach. Many other perks such as roll-in showers exist and local taxis were made to transport wheelchair users back and forth on the property. You can even enjoy an accessible and relaxing boat ride in the waters if you wish.
This is a great accessible beach destination because the beach is one of the best in the area. It’s not only a place to enjoy the sand and water with the use of a free beach wheelchair, it’s also the place most people enjoy the sunrise, sunset, drinks by the water, and even full meals. If you’re looking for a destination where you can enjoy the beach all day everyday, this is a great place.
.
19: Cancun, Mexico
In addition to offering some of the most stunning scenery on the planet, Cancun is one of the most wheelchair accessible beach destinations. Plenty of boardwalks are located along the beach and resorts in Cancun, Mexico offer wide paths (enough space for you and the countless iguanas that are plentiful in Mexico) and private beach access as well. Umbrellas can even be rented for a small fee if you want to spend the day on the sand without roasting like a lobster. Staying at a resort is the best way to have private access to a less crowded beach.
Many resorts offer beach wheelchairs and some can even be reserved ahead of time through companies like Accessible Cancun. In addition to the beach wheelchairs, resorts are more likely to have wheelchair accommodations from wheelchair friendly dining to handicap accessible rooms, and even a lift for using the pool.
.
20: Manly Beach, Australia
Manly Beach
A short ferry ride from the mainland will land you at Manly Beach in Sydney, Australia. Very accessible with a plethora of cafes, restaurants, and shops, there is plenty to see and do beyond just spending time on the beach itself. Be sure to eat some pizza at Hugo’s if you visit. I ate it back in 2014 and am still thinking about it… Delicious!! However, if lounging seaside is on the agenda then there is a nice walkway between Manly and Shelley Beach with beach wheelchairs available if you desire.
The beach itself is accessible to wheelchairs by a pedestrian boardwalk that leads to Shelley Beach. This is a great way to explore the local wildlife and there are plenty of places to stop, grab a snack, and take a break while enjoying the sights. The ferry along with the beach is a great way to spend a day and gives you that perfect day at the beach.
.
21: Tobacco Bay in Bermuda
There are plenty of beaches to visit in Bermuda, but Tobacco Bay is a shallow, crystal clear bay with reef which makes it perfect for snorkeling and enjoying the calm waters. This beach is on the small side compared to resort beaches which are typically long stretches of sand.
Visiting Tobacco Bay is a great few hours at the beach, but Bermuda takes it a step further with a wheelchair accessible island tour. This air-conditioned bus tour allows you to see all the sights, make stops at historic land and enjoy the beach. These tours can also be customized to your liking, making it easier to visit the beaches you’d like to see and make sure you get a chance to see all destinations during your stay. Visiting Bermuda can be completely wheelchair accessible with the right resources, and there are plenty of options from transportation to beach destinations.
.
22: Tuscany, Italy
Tuscany
This great Italian region has several wheelchair accessible beaches. Ramps and boardwalks are abound in this tourist Mecca with the top four most accessible beaches in Tuscany being Alcione Beach, Bagno Auroria, Fossa Maestra, and Stella del Mare. A few of them offer showers and changing rooms. Many of the resorts in Tuscany offer accessible rooms as well. Make sure you call ahead to check availability or you might get booked in a regular room even if you requested an accessible room online.
Finding a specific beach in Tuscany can be a little tricky, as many public beaches are considered free beaches and may be little spots along the coast. The best way to find a wheelchair accessible beach and accommodations is to consider a resort because these establishments often have their own beach access, or know the best way to go about accessing a local beach.
.
23: Nova Icaria in Barcelona, Spain
The beach in Barcelona is very wheelchair accessible with several access points. Each access point uses a ramp to merge the city sidewalk with a beach boardwalk, allowing you to move through the sand easily. The wooden ramps go all the way to the water on some paths, making it very easy to enjoy the view and the water as well as the sand.
Of all the beaches in Barcelona, Nova Icaria is one of the most wheelchair accessible. Here they not only have amphibious wheelchairs, but also provide accessible bathrooms, changing rooms, and a hoist to assist with transferring from a wheelchair to an amphibious wheelchair.
.

New Zealand is a great destination for a vacation because there’s so much to do. Ships Creek is a trail lined with boardwalks that allow you to get close to the coast as well as explore the natural terrain. The boardwalks are broken up with hard terrain to give you a full trekking experience. Napier and Kaikoura are also great for enjoying the waterfront. Most locations have paved paths which make them easily accessible.
If you’re looking to get into the water in New Zealand, there’s a variety of beach wheelchairs available at many beaches. These wheelchairs are capable of going into the water as well as across the sand for a full day at the beach. Destinations that have aquatic wheelchairs available include Wellington, Christchurch, and Auckland. Beach mats are also available in Wellington, allowing wheelchair users better traction across the sand.
.
25: Jaco Beach in Costa Rica
To increase accessible tourism in Costa Rica, Jaco Beach was the first beach to have recycled plastic mats installed on the beach to provide access to the shore. These beach mats allow wheelchair users to navigate through the sand with a more sturdy base, making the beach more enjoyable for all.
Other beach amenities that make it more wheelchair accessible include reserved parking for those with a disability, ramps, adapted bathrooms, locker rooms, and shaded areas. There are also amphibious wheelchairs available along with a defined beach area. Jaco Beach has a lift to help wheelchair users in and out of the water. These adaptations have made this destination in Costa Rica more wheelchair accessible, giving those that would like to visit a place to have a day at the beach.
There are a variety of wheelchair accessible beaches throughout the world. Many of the beaches in the United States are wheelchair accessible due to the ADA regulations, as well as adapted equipment and beach paths.

8 Wheelchair Accessible Beaches in the U.S. (Recommended)
I’ve compiled a list below of some of America’s best wheelchair beaches – take a look and see if there’s one near you!
Gulf Shores, AL
Panama City Beach, FL
San Diego Beaches, CA
Key Largo, FL
Hanauma Bay, HI
Myrtle Beach, SC
Stearns Park Beach, Ludington, MI
Tybee Island, GA
Gulf Shores, AL
The south is well known for its hospitality. You’ll find this especially true for Gulf Shores, Alabama. Not only are the locals polite, with that wonderful southern drawl, but the beaches are sandy-white and pristine. You’ll probably want to rent a beach wheelchair to make the most of your visit. These chairs are made specifically for sandy travel, so you can roll about the shoreline with ease. Luckily, there are numerous beach resorts and companies offering rentals throughout this area.
For dolphin lovers, you’ll probably want to think about taking a local cruise. There’s nothing quite like seeing these smart and majestic creatures swimming fancy-free in the wild. They often like to swim by the boats, so you can see them up close and personal, along with a host of sea birds and other wildlife. If you’re planning ahead, you’ll find there are charter boats available that offer full wheelchair accessibility.
Panama City Beach, FL
What could be better than being able to roll onto the beach in your own wheelchair? Located on sparkling turquoise waters, you’ll want to visit the M.B. Miller County Pier at Panama City Beach. Here you’ll find the wheelchair version of the “red carpet” called the Mobi-Mat. You can roll directly from the wooden walkway ramp onto this smooth rubber pathway, perfect for power and manual wheelchairs, plus those who use walkers and other mobility aids.
This wheelchair accessible beach offers another advantage for mobility device users called the Mobi-Chair. There are two Mobi-Chairs available, free of charge, on a first-come, first-served basis. These unique chairs can float and seat two people. The wheelchair user gets strapped in and pushed to the seashore by a companion. Once in the water, the person pushing the chair hops into the back seat, and both float out onto the sea. You’ll probably want to arrive at the beach early to take advantage of these chairs!
San Diego Beaches, CA
While there are over a dozen wheelchair accessible beaches in San Diego (check out this excellent guide to San Diego’s beaches), you’ll probably want to visit Coronado City Beach, Mission Beach, or Imperial Beach. The sand at Coronado City Beach literally sparkles due to the mica, a gold-like mineral, that is found here. Mission Beach features the classic, bustling boardwalk and is perfect for grabbing a bite to eat. Imperial Beach is the city’s southernmost beach, just four miles from Mexico, and is a wonderful setting to take in a stunning seaside sunset.
Not only are these some of the most beautiful beaches around, they offer motorized and manual beach wheelchairs free of charge to visitors. Or if you need something with a little more power, Scootaround can provide rentals throughout San Diego as well. The beaches also offer handicapped parking and wheelchair accessible restrooms, so you’ll enjoy the ocean breeze and eternal views while lounging in the moderate temperatures that make this city famous. The powered beach chairs are a blend of a regular power wheelchair and a dune buggy, allowing independent exploration of the beach, while the manual beach wheelchair requires a friend to assist. What’s better than spending the day at the beach with a friend anyway?
Key Largo, FL
Home to a variety of wheelchair accessible beach resorts, the golden and white sands amidst the soul-soothing sounds of lapping waves make this a favorite beach hotspot. Key Largo is renowned for sunbathing on the beach, snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, fishing, and is home to a unique ecosystem.
A visit here would be incomplete without chartering a boat. Luckily, Tranquil Adventures offers wheelchair accessible boat eco-tours. In proximity to the Everglades, tourists will have the chance to see native mangroves, underwater coral reefs, and may even spot an alligator lurking along the shore. Furthermore, Tranquil Adventures offers adaptive equipment and special lifts for water transfers, allowing travelers with disabilities the opportunity to snorkel, swim with the dolphins, and even kayak.
After spending a day upon the sea, you’ll probably want to watch the sunset while dining on fresh seafood. There are many wheelchair accessible indoor and outdoor eateries throughout Key Largo.
Hanauma Bay, HI
How does a visit to one of Hawaii’s wheelchair accessible beaches sound? Look no further than Hanauma Bay, which means “Curved Bay” in Hawaiian and features an 1,800-foot crescent-shaped beach. This natural wonder is carved out among the cliffs of an ancient volcanic crater.
With a mountainous backdrop, this protected beach is accessed from the top side via road or a transport shuttle. The shuttle is only $1 per person and is highly recommended, as the steep road has been known to burn out power wheelchair motors. Another option is to travel via car. If you use Para City Transport in your hometown, there is a reciprocal agreement in Hawaii, meaning you can schedule a ride for only $2.
Last, beach wheelchairs are offered free of charge to visitors. You can pick one up at the beach kiosk, which is open from 8:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. daily. You’ll probably want to take your own cushion for optimal comfort. Otherwise, get ready to enjoy a fun-filled day at the beach on this excursion.
Myrtle Beach, SC
With over 60 miles of beachfront property, Myrtle Beach is a top destination for beach-goers. This city is one of the most famous wheelchair accessible beach resorts. Dedicated to inclusivity, there are over two dozen fully accessible beach entrances spattered from one end of the city to the other. Additionally, free parking at metered spaces is available to anyone with a handicapped hang tag or distinguished Veteran license plate tag.
On the beach, you’ll hear Atlantic waves crashing while enjoying moderate temperatures year-round. The city also offers beach wheelchairs free of charge and will even deliver them to your requested location. The promenade is the ideal spot to savor an ice cream cone after a hot day on the beach. When you’re ready to relax under the setting sun, the Marsh Walk at Murrell’s Inlet offers visitors a roll along a half-mile accessible walkway. Here, you can also enjoy fine waterfront dining as the perfect ending to a perfect day.
Stearns Park Beach, Ludington, MI
If you’ve never considered a visit to Lake Michigan, you’re missing out on the opportunity to visit both a woodland and beachfront region. You’ll probably want to begin your journey at Stearns Park Beach in Ludington, which was voted as the fifth most accessible walkway in the nation. Here you can remain in your own wheelchair while exploring the beaches of Lake Michigan. The north walkway extends to the water’s edge and is perfect for all types of wheelchairs. The south walkway meets up with the concrete walkway and ends at the pier.
Another famous sight to see when visiting Ludington is the North Breakwater Light. You’re sure to have seen this famous lighthouse in pictures and movies, but it can only be called a light since a house was never attached, thus its name. Lastly, this area boasts the best of both worlds with forested woodland and waterfront trails snaking their way throughout Ludington State Park. If you’re ready to make smores around a campfire, many of the campsites here are also wheelchair accessible.
Tybee Island, GA
Another one of the southern wheelchair accessible beach resorts, the charm and natural splendor of Tybee Island will let you unwind in style and comfort. The beaches here are also home to Mobi-Mats, so accessing the beaches from the walkway ramps is a breeze. Speaking of a breeze, you’ll feel the warm air tickle your hair and fill your senses with the smell of salty sea spray. The Mobi-Mats wind throughout the entire tip of the peninsula and the city offers free beach wheelchairs to traverse the sandy areas. They even offer a floatable beach wheelchair so you too can enjoy a water-logged afternoon at the beach.
Tybee Island is an important nesting area for loggerhead sea turtles, and you’ll often spot the little ones making their heroic journey to the sea, especially during the early dawn hours or late nights. These special turtles are protected, so please do not touch them or their nests, or shine bright lights on them during the nighttime.
An adventure at one of these wheelchair accessible beaches will leave you relaxed and refreshed. Whether basking in the sun on a golden beach, rolling about the boardwalk, or viewing wildlife in its natural glory, you are sure to find the perfect beach destination suited to your tastes and needs.
Traveling to one of these beaches? Scootaround can take care of all your mobility rental needs, with a wide range of options that are sure to help make your beachfront vacation unforgettable.

8 Fantastic Wheelchair-Accessible Beaches In The U.S.
Everyone has the right to bask in the sun on a beach and to breathe in that salty sea air. However, many people who are mobility challenged may not have access to beaches because they can’t maneuver their wheelchairs or scooters in the sand.
Good news: These days, a growing number of beaches in the United States use Mobi-Mats, portable rollout beach access mats that provide a firm and safe surface over sand or dirt. Some mats may extend to the edge of an ocean or lake (although many do not, because high tides may destroy the materials in the mats). Some beaches provide wide-wheeled beach wheelchairs or, more rarely, wheelchairs with flotational wheels and armrests.

Following is a list of some of the best accessible beaches in the United States that make use of accessible technology.
Pro Tip: Make sure to contact the pertinent website or the visitor’s bureau at your destination to ask about parking lot availability, distance, mode of accessible transport to the beach, rental costs of chairs, and the existence of Mobi or other mats.

You can swap out your own wheelchair for the beach version at Beach Patrol (1001 Ocean Drive) and South Pointe Park. There are more than 20 entrances to the Miami Beaches with Mobi-Mats or IPE (an exotic hardwood that is naturally resistant to rot and decay and is hard-surfaced) boardwalks.
In 2016, the Sabrina Cohen Foundation launched its free Adaptive Beach Days program in Miami Beach to provide access to the beach and ocean for disabled individuals, veterans, children with special needs, and the elderly.
Pro Tip
Also check out Hollywood Beach, about 15 miles farther north along the coast. Hollywood Beach was the first destination in Florida to offer wheelchair-access mats leading to the beach. There are eight access areas to the water for wheelchair users along the famous Broadwalk.

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

6. Oxnard Beach Park
Oxnard, California
Oxnard Beach Park in Oxnard, about an hour northwest of Los Angeles, contains one of the country’s oldest accessible beaches, with a 900-foot-long concrete path weaving among the sand dunes and leading to the beach. Called Rehab Point Path, this path was built more than a quarter of a century ago, thanks to the efforts of disabled World War II veteran Ed Hunt.
Pro Tip
Nearer to Los Angeles, both Santa Monica and Venice beaches are more crowded, but both offer all-terrain wheelchairs. These can be reserved ahead of time.
On Newport Beach (about 45 minutes south of Los Angeles), beach wheelchairs can be borrowed from the lifeguard stands under Newport Pier and at Corona del Mar State Beach. Employees at both sites will help people in and out of the chairs. There are also several miles of smooth concrete paths on the boardwalks and promenades along Newport Beach and Balboa Island; most are accessible.
Pro Tip: The California Coastal Commission has a map and list of beach wheelchair locations on all of the state’s beaches.
Hanauma Bay

8. Hanauma Bay
Oahu, Hawaii
Although the beach at Hanauma Bay on Oahu is located at the bottom of a steep cliff (created by the collapse of an ancient volcano), it is still one of the more accessible beaches in Hawaii and a wonderful spot for snorkeling. There is a tram that runs from the rim down to the beach which is included in the price of admission. Beach wheelchairs are available free of charge at the beach kiosk on a first-come, first-served basis. Reservations must be made to enter the Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve (be sure to check open hours and days).
Other accessible beaches on Oahu include Waikiki Beach, Ala Moana Beach Park, Kailua Beach Park, and Fort DeRussy.
Pro Tip
There are also a number of accessible beaches on the Big Island, Maui, and Kauai. Lydgate Beach Park and Poipu Beach on Kauai offer all-terrain wheelchairs. Kealia Pond Coastal Boardwalk on Maui is located within a national wildlife refuge. The Big Island has at least 11 accessible beaches. Check the Hawaii Visitors Bureau for additional advice.
Mobi-Mat gives access to wheelchairs, beach wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, and even strollers.

Where There’s A Wheel, There’s A Way
Beach lovers can independently find destinations that are accessible. However, travelers might well consider booking travel through a company dedicated to folks who have more mobility needs. One such company is accessibleGO, a travel platform for people with disabilities (which also provides a community forum). Other companies that offer accessible tours or that include certified accessible travel agents include Wheel the World, Sage Traveling, and Planet Abled.
Access to the beaches is vital for those who are mobility challenged, but accessible parking, washrooms, and curb ramps are also necessary for beachgoers. And, while the Americans with Disabilities Act mandates that public beaches be accessible, there are few specific directives.
Tamar Sherman of Northport, New York, found that the mat at her local beach had “a curb in front of it so it was inaccessible to people who used wheelchairs,” and that it was impossible to get into the wheelchair beach buggy on her own. “It takes more than equipment to make beaches fully accessible,” she says, “It also takes workers who are trained in their use.” When beaches provide total accessibility to those who need it, every person can experience the joys of basking in the sun.

9 Best Wheelchair-Accessible Beaches in the U.S.
Beautiful sandy beaches are a vacationers’ dream. For wheelchair users or anyone with a mobility aid (cane, crutches, walker, and scooter), the shifting surface can be treacherous and often impossible to navigate. Fortunately, a day at the beach can be enjoyed by everyone when communities consider the needs of all their visitors.
Beach Wheelchair Travel Tips
If you or someone in your travel group requires an accessible beach, spend a little time researching the destination before you leave home. Call or visit the area’s official tourism website—often called a Convention and Visitor Bureau or CVB —to find the best match for your particular needs.
Wheelchair-Accessible Beaches
Accessible beaches have ramps or specially designed synthetic mats that grip the sand and create a stable surface. Typically, these do not reach all the way to the water because high tides would cover them. If you want to explore beyond the mat, you’ll need a beach wheelchair.
Beach Wheelchairs
Unlike standard wheelchairs, beach wheelchairs feature oversized wheels that easily glide over the sand and won’t get stuck. Some beach wheelchairs are motorized—allowing the driver to be independent. Most manual beach wheelchairs do require someone else to push the occupant.
Hundreds of beaches across the country provide beach wheelchairs. You can borrow one for the day or a few hours—often at no cost. Typically, you’re asked to leave something valuable, such as a driver’s license or deposit, in exchange for the loaner beach wheelchair. Most communities only have a small number of beach wheelchairs available and lend them on a first come first served basis.
To guarantee you have a beach wheelchair during your vacation, renting might be the best option. Private businesses that rent beach gear—paddle-boards, umbrellas, bikes—often rent beach wheelchairs.
Whether borrowing or renting a beach wheelchair, be sure to address when the chair needs to be returned and ask for detailed instructions on how to use it. Some beach wheelchairs will be ruined if they go into the water and others can float in the waves. Thoroughly discuss the features of the beach wheelchair before venturing out and ask for the phone number of someone who can assist you with any additional questions or concerns.
For the wheelchair user’s comfort and safety, consider bringing a cushion from home. Not every beach wheelchair has a seat belt. Travelers can improvise by using a long piece of velcro looped around their waist. Also, some wheelchair users may find transferring from their personal chair to a low slung beach wheelchair difficult and should plan accordingly.
Whether you are visiting a small seashore town or a beach in a metropolis, there’s dozens of communities with a range of accessible services. Here’s a list to get you started.
The Best Wheelchair-Accessible Beaches in the U.S.

Disabled Beach – Beach Adaptation Guide for MHS
People with disabilities, like everyone else, have the right to a beach holiday. To do this, a place of rest near the water should be adapted taking into account the characteristics of people with disabilities of all categories and other people with limited mobility.
For the movement of wheelchair users, a separate descent to the water with a hard, rough surface, equipped with handrails 0.7 and 0.9 meters high, and a changing cabin, also with the possibility of entering it along a special path with handrails, should be provided. The number of tracks and slopes is not regulated, the main thing is at least one. The dimensions of the track are specified in clause 5 of joint venture 59.13330.2016 “Accessibility of buildings and structures for people with limited mobility”: width – not less than 1. 3 m, longitudinal slope – not more than 5%, and transverse – not more than 2%.
To create the right accessibility project, you need a well-prepared terms of reference!
Tiflotsentr “Vertical” develops projects on accessibility of the beach for people with limited mobility. To do this, you need to download the completed terms of reference for the design or leave an application on our website.
In order for a person in a wheelchair to move along the beach without sand, at the risk of getting bogged down or falling, it would be good to lay out separate paths 60 cm wide from longitudinal tactile indicators. The blind and visually impaired will also be able to move along them. Therefore, any obstacles, such as intersections with other paths, should be marked with warning markings with tactile cones laid in a linear manner. The width of the markup field must match the width of the track.
This manual takes into account changes to the new set of rules SP 59.13330. 2016. The adaptation scheme complies with the standards that came into force on May 15, 2017.

Where is the beach?
The beach has a very advantageous and convenient location: 40 km from Simferopol (35 km from the airport), 10 km from Evpatoria, 5 km from Saki. Near the beach there is a road and a railway. Also, the attractive location of the beach is very convenient for vacationers because its distance from the sea is only 100 meters. In addition, 100 meters away is the largest water park in the Crimea “Banana Republic”.
For whom?
For many people with disabilities, a holiday at sea is an impossible dream, since the beach areas are not suitable for people with limited mobility. A person in a wheelchair cannot independently drive up to the coastline, enter the water, or transfer to a sun lounger. That is why a barrier-free environment should be created not only in the city, but also in recreation areas, including on the beaches! Relaxing by the water and swimming are not only good for health promotion. For people with disabilities and their companions, this is an outlet and a way to recharge with positive energy and good mood for the whole year.
The beach is the hallmark of the resort town of Saki.

Holidays in Cyprus can be a great option for people with disabilities. Over the past few years, Cyprus has introduced new services for people with disabilities and accessibility planning to meet the needs of visitors with disabilities.
With a little planning and patience, you can have a fantastic day at one of the following beaches!
Next Beaches 36 have full access to the beach, as a wheelchair user has the opportunity to get from the beach to the sea, moving along a wooden or plastic ramp.
There are also sanitary facilities and disabled parking spaces. It is worth noting that 7 of these beaches have the innovative Seatrac system installed, which allows people with disabilities to have full access to the sea. This is an automatic photovoltaic system consisting of a seat mounted on a rail that drops a person with a disability into the sea to a depth of approximately 60 cm.
34 beaches have floating wheelchairs** that can be easily moved across the sand and float in the water thanks to the floating armrests and wheels.
Seatracs and floating wheelchairs are available for free use and information can be obtained from beach lifeguards.

The Canary Islands are open to travelers, but here’s what you should know about restrictions, weather, and the best time to visit
If you’re planning to visit the Canary Islands, it’s important to stay aware of COVID-19 advisories.
Keep reading for important details as you prepare to explore the Canary Islands.

I travel frequently to the Canary Islands and have done so often during the coronavirus pandemic.
The rules can be confusing and depend greatly on where you’ll be arriving from, so make sure to take note if you plan to travel to the European Union first. It’s also a good idea to check with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the US Embassy for updates.
I usually check the requirements on the Canary Islands tourism bureau website, which works with the government to update visitors on the rules and regulations for entering. I highly recommend checking the page regularly to ensure you’ll be fully prepared.
Do note these policies are current as of this writing but are subject to change at any time.
US travelers must meet a set of criteria before visiting the Canary Islands.Rubén Acosta for Insider
If you’re traveling directly from the US to the Canary Islands, be prepared to show the following:
A health form, which can be filled out online before traveling. Once completed, you’ll get a QR code you can either show printed or digitally to be scanned upon arrival.
A certificate of full vaccination against COVID-19. Travelers arriving from the US to the Canary Islands, or from the US to the Spanish mainland for tourism purposes, must be fully vaccinated. Accompanying persons between 12 and 17 years old are exempt.
Passengers aged between 12 and 17 must have a negative PCR test taken a maximum of 72 hours before arrival.
In addition, a diagnostic test of active COVID-19 infection will be required regardless of vaccination status or prior infection, for third countries at high risk only. The US is currently considered “at risk.” You can check the status of which countries are at risk here.
Antigen tests must be taken a maximum of 24 hours before arrival in Spain and NAAT tests (PCR, TMA, LAMP) taken a maximum of 72 hours before arrival in Spain.
If you plan to visit another European hub before heading to the Canary Islands, make sure to check the requirements for entering that particular country from the United States before traveling.

And if you’re visiting the Canaries via mainland Spain and are above the age of 12, you’ll have to show either a certificate of full vaccination against COVID-19, a negative COVID-19 test (antigen tests taken a maximum of 48 hours before arrival, and NAAT tests taken a maximum of 72 hours before arrival), or a certificate of recovery confirming that the holder has recovered from COVID-19, issued at least 11 days after the first positive test.
The island of La Palma experienced a volcanic eruption in 2021 but it has since been declared officially over. Rubén Acosta for Insider
Other key info to know before traveling to the Canary Islands
The volcanic eruption on La Palma
The island of La Palma experienced a volcanic eruption in September 2021 that spewed hot lava and ash over many businesses and residential homes in the immediate area and also temporarily affected the air quality. As of December 25, 2021, the eruption was declared officially over.
All areas outside Cumbre Vieja are safe to visit, as they were not affected by the lava. Though most places are up and running, make sure to check with local businesses or restaurants you’d like to visit that are near Cumbre Vieja in the following areas: El Paso, Los Llanos de Aridane, Tazacorte, Mazo, and Fuencaliente, which could still be affected by volcanic ash.
The sun is very strong.Rubén Acosta for Insider
What to know about weather and what to pack
No matter which island you visit, the sun can be very strong, so pack sunscreen.
Though it’s typically warm at sea level, bring along layers and warm clothing if you plan to hike in the Canaries or visit the Teide volcano — temperatures can vary up to 30 or 40 degrees Fahrenheit at different elevations on all the islands. It may be 40F and raining on Teide, approximately 12,000 feet above sea level, and 74F and sunny down below.

It’s also important to know the Canary Islands are windy, especially in summer but really year-round. Whenever there’s high pressure over the Sahara, temps rise and humidity falls, creating trade winds that blow over the islands, often at strong speeds midday. This is why the islands are so apt for surfing.
Different islands and areas of each island can have very different wind speeds. Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, and Fuerteventura are usually the windiest islands. Tenerife and Gran Canaria, especially the southern areas of these islands are usually slightly warmer, less windy, and much sunnier. Plan your vacation accordingly.

The best times to visit the Canary Islands

Canary Islands weather and climate ☀️ Water temperature 💧 Best time to visit
The Canary Islands are a very popular vacation destination. Each of the seven major islands has its own character and unique attractions. Throughout the year it is a pleasant temperature in the Canary Islands, but between the islands there are differences in climate and weather. Do you want to go on vacation to the Canary Islands? We list some of the best sights for you.
Tenerife
Tenerife is the largest and also the most popular island of the seven major Canary Islands. On this island you will find the Pico del Teide, the highest mountain in Spain. This is a real eye-catcher, which can also be seen well from the other islands. Tenerife is very popular among sun lovers, but also hikers can indulge themselves on the island.
Hike through the beautiful countryside or climb the Pico del Teide. A cable car will take you a long way, but you will have to make it to the top under your own steam. Afterwards you can relax on one of the lovely sandy beaches.
The weather in Tenerife is actually always nice. It is warm throughout the year and there is little rain. Especially the southern part of the island is therefore very popular.
Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria is an island of contrasts. In the north you’ll find a beautiful green landscape, while the south is more desert-like. In the south you will also find beautiful beaches. That part of the island is therefore the most popular among holidaymakers. The nature reserve Dunas de Maspalomas is a special place to visit. The high sand dunes completely surround you and make you feel in another world.
Charco de Maspalomas is also located in this nature reserve. This is an oasis where migratory birds regularly rest. Furthermore, a visit to the capital Las Palmas should not be missed. The old city center has a long and rich history that is still visible today.
The temperature is pleasant all year round on Gran Canaria. However, a little more rain falls here than on Tenerife and Lanzarote, for example. For the northern part of the island this has to do. Nevertheless, Gran Canaria is a fine vacation destination all year round.
Fuerteventura
Fuerteventura is the island to go to if you like windsurfing. Besides the fact that the island has a pleasant temperature and little rainfall, there is almost always wind here. The beaches are absolutely the most popular spot on the island. Not only among water sports enthusiasts, but also among sun lovers the beaches are popular.
Make time to watch a sunset on the beach. The sky takes on the most impressive colors. For hiking, Parque Nacional de Jandia is a good destination.
Lanzarote
Lanzarote is a versatile island. Of course the beautiful beaches are very popular, but also a visit to the capital Arrecife is worthwhile. The city is located on the coast and offers a lot of fun. Timanfaya National Park is also a special destination. Here you get to know the volcanic past of Lanzarote. And be sure to visit the museum Fundación Cesar Manrique. This artist has been very important for the formation of Lanzarote as it is today.
Lanzarote is very close to Africa and is therefore one of the warmest Canary Islands. The temperature is pleasant all year round and it almost never rains. However, the wind can sometimes make the evenings feel a little chilly.
La Palma
La Palma is a popular vacation destination among hikers. It is the greenest Canary Island. You can hike through special natural parks and picturesque villages. Parque Nacional Caldera de Taburiente is a beautiful hiking destination. Here you can see a huge crater with steep walls and an impressive waterfall.
The temperature on La Palma is pleasant throughout the year. In the months of October and November the most rain falls. The rest of the year is mostly dry with average temperatures between 19 and 24 degrees. This is a perfect temperature for walking and cycling.
La Gomera
La Gomera is a nice relaxing destination for nature lovers. The island is home to an enormous wealth of flora and fauna. From magnificent laurel forests to breathtakingly high rock faces. Untamed nature is still plentiful on this island.
The lively capital San Sebastián also provides plenty of entertainment. Stroll through the picturesque streets and enjoy the authentic buildings. Would you like to spend a day at the beach? Playa de Santiago is a black sand beach where you can relax.
La Gomera is a great vacation destination all year round. The temperature never drops very much and rises in summer to a pleasant 24 or 25 degrees. That is a fine temperature to discover the wild nature of the island. Precipitation is scarce throughout the year.
El Hierro
El Hierro is the smallest island of the Canary Islands. Here you will find therefore only a few small beaches. The rest of the coastline consists of high, steep rocks. This island is especially popular among divers. The marine reserve of Mar de las Calmas is considered one of the best diving spots in Europe. Many divers therefore want to discover the rich underwater world here.
El Hierro is a good choice if you do not feel like mass tourism. The small island is often overlooked by tourists, but that is exactly why it is so worthwhile.
On El Hierro the temperature is pleasant throughout the year. There is also very little precipitation. October and November are the wettest months. From August to October is with an average of 24 degrees the warmest.

Your guide to the day of the Canary Islands
Discover how each of the islands celebrates the Day of the Canary Islands, one of the Canary Islands festivals you need to know about.
The Day of the Canary Islands, or the Día de Las Canarias, is marked every single year on the 30th of May with a bank holiday for all island dwellers. This year it falls on a Thursday.If you’ve fallen under the spell of this magical archipelago, you’ll be intrigued to discover the history behind the Canary Islands Day, and how it’s celebrated in modern times.The Canaries in May are a blissful place to be, as the temperatures are yet to spike and the crowds are yet to arrive, so if you’ve booked a holiday for this time of year you’re in for a treat. Being there for one of the most important Canary Islands festivals is just an added bonus.Read on to find out absolutely everything you need to know about the Day of the Canary Islands, and how to get involved in the festivities if you happen to be holidaying on any of the Canary Islands on this special day.
The History of the Day of the Canary Islands
Unfortunately, a lot of national or regional days are held on days on which there was a significant battle or some form of bloodshed, so celebrating them can bring up mixed feelings.Luckily, with the Day of the Canary Islands, that’s not the case. On May 30th 1983, the first session of the Parliament of the Canary islands was held in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, presided over by Pedro Guerra Cabrera.That marked the start of the residents of the islands starting to have more autonomy and more say over what went on in the archipelago, rather than having everything dictated by a distant central government in Madrid. That’s the perfect excuse for celebrating the unity of all Canarian people, both those still living on the islands and those spread all over the world, as they’re an adventurous bunch with a fascinating history. These days, the islands have a population of roughly two million.
How Canary Islands Day is Celebrated
The Canaries are made up of seven islands, Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria, Tenerife, Lanzarote, La Palma, La Gomera and El Hierro. They’re all very different in many ways, but on ‘Canary Day’, they all come together in celebration of their shared, distinctive, rich culture.If you happen to be on any of the islands over this date then you’re bound to stumble across celebrations, but you can go looking for them, too!Here are a few of the things to keep an eye out for.
Spice up your Canarian holidays at a food tasting
If you’ve ever been on any Canary Island breaks before, then you’ll know first-hand that the cuisine of the Canary Islands is to die for. It’s similar to mainland Spanish cuisine in lots of ways, but is also influenced by the aboriginal inhabitants of the islands, the Guanches, who were here long before the Europeans, as well Latin American cuisine, thanks to the large number of Canarians who migrated there during the 20th century.On the Day of the Canary Islands, there are events held all over the islands that celebrate this cuisine with food tastings. Don’t leave without trying papas arrugadas con mojo (potatoes with a delicious piquant sauce), tortilla (Spanish omelette), tortillas de calabaza (flat pumpkin cakes).You should sample plenty of local, fresh cheeses and island wines, too. The flavours in both of these are very distinctive thanks to the geology of the islands.Grab yourself a plate and have a chat with the people serving you or your fellow diners. Locals are normally very proud of their cuisine, and many will be happy to wax lyrical about it should you ask them.
Enjoy some Canary Islands music
There’s no shortage of live music on 30th May. There will be plenty of concerts played by locals in public squares and bars. Just as with the food, Canarian music has been influenced by the Guanches and contact with Latin America.Cuban music and Canarian music have long been connected. If you’re lucky, you might witness some of the traditional local dances, too.
Witness something unique to the Canary Islands: Lucha Canaria
Lucha Canaria, or Canarian Wrestling, is often described as a mix between wrestling and judo. It’s the most popular local sport, passed down from the original inhabitants of the island. Before the Spanish arrived, it was a way of solving conflicts over land.There are matches organised all over the different islands on the Day of the Canary Islands, as a celebration of the island’s unique culture. If you’re here for the festivities, then it’s a great opportunity to witness this unique sport for yourself.https://www.instagram.com/p/BuPFsPqFq6U/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

3 Reasons to visit the Canary Islands in winter
The Canary Islands is one of the favourite destinations for tourists. This is mainly due to the enviable climate the archipelago has, with average temperatures throughout the year ranging between 19º and 25º degrees. This and other factors are what tip the balance in favour of travelling to the Canary Islands in winter.
The attraction of visiting the islands in winter is being able to enjoy the sun and the beach in months when half of Europe and part of Spain is in the cold, rain and snow.

Temperatures on the islands range from 15 to 25 degrees Celsius – even in winter! You can spend Christmas or New Year’s Eve literally on the beach, taking a dip even at night.

Make your friends and family jealous by showing off with photos of yourself outdoors and on the beach in the middle of winter.
2. Spectacular food
If you come to the Canary Islands leave your scarf and winter jacket at home and bring your sandals and flip-flops, sun cream, shorts and a desire to try the best typical Canarian Christmas and winter dishes by hopping from bars, pubs, to restaurants and cafeterias.

If you’re planning to visit this archipielago it’s important to know where to stay in the Canary Islands.The fabulous Canaries Archipelago comprises eight main atolls and each offer different advantages for tourists.
Known as the Islands of eternal springtime, if you’ve never visited them before, all appear very similar at first glance. But similar doesn’t mean the same-as.
Laying in the Atlantic Ocean off the west coast of Africa, between them, they attract over 16 million visitors a year. They all enjoy warm year-round sunshine, minimum rainfall, fantastic beaches, volcanic interiors, fabulous cuisine and friendly locals.
There though, is where similarities end. Each magnificent island has its own appeal, its own charm and its own character. This blog highlights each of the eight main islands and offers suggestions on which one might be the best option for your holiday requirements.
Table of Contents
1. Tenerife, the most popular destination where to stay in the Canary Islands
The largest of the Canary Islands and most popular by visitor numbers, Tenerife has something for everyone.
If your prime concern is sun, sand and sea, the south coast of Tenerife is the place to head for, especially through the winter months of October through March.
Accommodation is plentiful and well spread throughout the island. Whether a backpacking hostel, self-catering apartment, or a sumptuous 5-star, all-inclusive seaside villa, you’ll find it in Tenerife.
Families are particularly well catered for with family-friendly hotels and aparthotels, many with daily kids clubs.
The Brits are the biggest visitors to Tenerife by numbers, so if your full-English breakfast and Sunday roast are a big part of your holiday must-haves, you will find plenty of hotels, expat bars and restaurants where you can indulge your passions.
For those who prefer to live like a local, Spanish café/bars and restaurants offer the best of Canarian and international cuisine. Tenerife boasted six Michelin starred restaurants at the last count, so this time, do things a little differently and start your day with a Spanish coffee and croissant or bocadillo (filled baguette).
For those days away from the beach with the kids, you have Siam Park in Adeje, one of Europe’s largest waterparks. Loro Parque in Puerto de la Cruz, with its dolphin shows and penguins, aquariums, tropical birds and animals.
Just on the edge of Los Cristianos, you will find Monkey Park, with its collection of small primates, birds and other fauna, or, a little further out, Park Las Aquilas Jungle Park in Arona.
If you enjoy a little people watching, head for Playa Del Duque. A beautiful beach fronted by 5-star hotels and upmarket bars and restaurants. Strut your stuff down the promenade, where you might just bump into a premier league footballer or YouTube fashion influencer.
If your preference is walking, hiking and natural history, add a visit to Teide National Park and El Teide, Spain’s highest mountain.
Explore the pine-clad hillsides, geological formations and the many walking trails. In the north of the island, Sendero El Bosque Encantado in Santa Cruz, with its ancient forests, is also very popular with nature lovers.
We could also include Tenerife as one of the best places to stay in the Canary Islands for nightlife, along with Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, who all have their buzzing night-time scenes.
The Tenerife season is split broadly in two, with the 18 – 30s and families with school-age children visiting through the summer months. And older families and couples arriving through the winter months.
Puerto de la Cruz on the west coast is a popular destination with German visitors, while in the north, the island’s capital, Santa Cruz and its large port are filled with day-trippers.
Although you can seek out the odd expat bar in both these areas, most evening entertainment consists of friendly Spanish bars and restaurants.
For the younger set and party animals, the place to head for nightlife is Playa de Las Americas on the southwest coast, with its long strip of Spanish and English bars and clubs. Most establishments here stay open until 4am, with others closing at 6am.
For more family orientated hostelries and restaurants that still bump until the early hours, look around Costa Adeje, San Eugenio or Los Cristianos.

2. Gran Canaria, our choice of the best place to stay in the Canary Islands for nightlife.
Sitting in the centre of the island group, Gran Canaria is the third largest of the islands and the third most popular by visitor numbers. Particularly favoured by the Germans, it also attracts many tourists from the UK, Italy, France and Scandinavia.
Said to be the warmest of all the islands, it’s little wonder that its magnificent beaches are a big draw. Around the southern coast, the most popular visitor area, you will find kilometers of golden sand beaches with sunbeds, parasols and water sports to suit all tastes.
Along the beach fronts are plenty of bars, restaurants and shops for all your sunbathing needs, as well as beachside villas and hotels.
The island’s north coast is more rugged, with wild, volcanic sand beaches and rocky coves, popular with those who prefer quiet, away from the more crowded beach areas.
If you prefer to alternate your holidays between days on the beach and exploring your surroundings, Gran Canaria’s interior is the ideal place to do it.
Much of the island away from the coast is a dedicated biosphere of craters and calderas, mountains, valleys and pine forests, interspersed with sleepy Canarian villages that time seems to have forgotten.
The east of the island is Gran Canaria’s main agricultural area. The fertile soil in an area known as ‘La Vega Mayor’ provides the ideal conditions to raise bananas, oranges, tomatoes and peppers, cucumbers, sugar cane and ornamental plants and flowers.
With plenty of hiking and biking trails, it is popular with photographers and nature lovers, trying to catch a glimpse of the elusive Gran Canaria Blue Chaffinch, found nowhere else except in the island’s Inagua Pine Forest Reserve.
As previously mentioned, there are excellent and varied night-time scenes for visitors on all the four largest islands. However, Gran Canaria has been specifically chosen for its variety and diversity.
There’s no need to rush back from the beach to get dressed for dinner. While most hotels have fixed dining hours out of necessity, you’ll find plenty of restaurants in the main tourist areas open until midnight, often offering entertainment while you dine.
If you want to party the night away, these are the areas to head for.
Playa del Ingles: With around a dozen main nightlife centres, this bustling south coast resort is also the main area for Gran Canaria’s gay community. Visit over 200 bars and clubs at the Yumbo Centre for drag queens, fetish bars and clubs, and various Gay Pride events held throughout the year.
Las Palmas: Capital city of the island offers a good selection of everything. From quiet, laidback family bars, cocktail bars and karaoke bars, to music and dance clubs where you can party ‘til dawn. Head for Plaza de España in Mesa y Lopéz.
Puerto Rico: On the southwest coast, the places to head for are the Europa Centre for quieter, family evenings out, and the main avenue, where the party people will find plenty of bars and clubs to keep them entertained into the early hours.
Accommodation across the island is varied and plentiful, from privately let fincas in the country, to hostels, self-catering apartments, all levels of hotel accommodation and sumptuous villas.

Lanzarote, where to stay in the Canary Islands for couples
Whether looking for somewhere to celebrate that special occasion, or just wanting to chill out and recharge the batteries, there’s a lot to be said for choosing Lanzarote.
Just over 97 km off the coast of Africa and close to the island of Fuerteventura, Lanzarote is the fourth largest Canary Island, around half the size of its bigger sisters.
Lanzarote has learnt from the mistakes of the past. As a result, you won’t find high-rise hotels here. Instead, accommodation and visitor attractions have been constructed to blend in with the island’s natural scenery and contours.
As expected on these islands, beaches play a big part in visitor itineraries, but there is also plenty to see and do away from the coastal areas.
The port city of Arrecife in the centre-east of the island is the island’s capital. Not a tourist resort but the cultural and commercial hub of the island, its port sees ferries leaving for the other Canary Islands, Europe and West Africa.
It is also close to the local airport and a popular base with those visitors preferring to holiday away from busy tourist areas, liking instead to explore the less commercialised parts of the island by hire car or organised trips.
For beach lovers, the south and east coast are the places to head for those long stretches of golden sand.
The north of the island is renowned for some of the best views, and beaches in the main here are also golden sand, with smaller, quieter coves of rugged rocks and volcanic sand.
Although sheltered areas exist, the island’s west side has a constant onshore breeze that some may find a little off-putting. However, the wind also makes the west coast very popular with wind and kite-surfers.
One of Lanzarote’s most famous artists, Cesar Manrique, was a big advocate of sustainable tourism, and examples of his artistic architecture can be seen around the island today. His principal residence was converted to a museum after his untimely death, and a number of his works are displayed here.
The interior of Lanzarote around Timanfaya National Park has been likened to a moonscape, or Mars, or a lunar landscape, all with good reason.
The last volcanic eruption in the 19th century added even more to the volcanos, lava fields and rust-red and black hues of the volcanic rocks and substrate.
Nonetheless, the inhabitants developed some highly fertile soils, where various fruits and crops can be cultivated, including grapes.
Now Lanzarote produces some of the Canary Islands best wines, which are exported around the world. Organised trips are available to a number of these wineries.
Other areas are more like black sand deserts, with cacti and scrub sprouting from the barren soil.
If you prefer your evenings to be more drinking and dining, rather than singing and dancing, Lanzarote has many excellent restaurants where delicious local cuisine is served.
Try a selection of roast meats topped with goats cheese and mojo sauce. All washed down with one of Lanzarote’s excellent wines or a local beer.
Much of Lanzarote’s accommodation comprises self-catering complexes from studios to large apartments that sleep six or eight. In addition, a limited number of hostels are available, as are private villas and tour operator hotels.
The most popular resorts with all amenities are Puerto del Carmen, Costa Teguise and Playa Blanca. However, private boutique hotels and tastefully furnished apartments and cabins can be found beyond the busy resort areas if you prefer to be off the beaten track.

Fuerteventura, where to stay in the Canary Islands for amazing beaches and surf
The second-largest of the Canary Islands, and a declared UNESCO biosphere reserve, Fuerteventura has something to appeal to all adults and children. And particularly those who enjoy active water sports holidays.
Although something of a late developer in the tourism sector, Fuerteventura fast started catching up when the visitor euros began trickling into the coffers.
With over 150km of natural sandy beaches and delightful hidden coves blessing her coastlines, it wasn’t long before marinas, water parks and golf courses began to appear.
With, of course, the required infrastructure of apartment blocks, shops, hotels, bars, restaurants and an expanding road network.
If your preference when choosing where to stay in the Canary Islands is a lazy-hazy laid-back beach holiday, nowadays you have a plethora of options in Fuerteventura.
If your first consideration is riding the waves, Fuerteventura is great for that too, and we have listed a few of the island’s most popular surfers base camps.
El Cotillo, on the northwest coast and a surfers paradise
Puerto del Rosario, on the eastern coast and the island’s capital
Costa Calma, on the south-east coast and a popular surfing base
Costa de Antigua, ten minutes from the airport on the east coast
La Oliva, just inland from Corralejo in the north
Lajares, slightly inland and popular with backpackers and surfers
With high Atlantic swells and an almost constant breeze around most of the coastline, Fuerteventura has several excellent surf schools, attracting new and experienced surfers, windsurfers and kite surfers from across Europe and beyond, and the island regularly hosts international surfing events.
Almost every water activity you can think of is available in Fuerteventura, including sailing, snorkelling, scuba diving, whale and dolphin trips, and big game fishing.
If you prefer to get out and about inland, you can explore the sand dunes at Corralejo National Park, the Oasis Animal Park and the old island capital of Betancuria, dating back to 1404.
Visit the food and craft markets at La Oliva and the nearby Aloe Vera farm. Then, call into Antigua, home of Fuerteventura’s windmills.
Next, stop off at La Alcogida Eco-Museum with its 19th-century village, and Poblado de la Atalayita, an original Mahos aborigines settlement. Or spend a day with the kids at Acua Water Park, Corralejo.
All the larger resorts on Fuerteventura have enough nightlife to suit most visitors. You will find fast food outlets to serve the kids, and family restaurants, seafood restaurants and international restaurants, where you can dine Asian, Italian or Mexican.
For those after-dinner drinks, there are expat bars, friendly Spanish café/bars and cocktail bars. Many of which offer entertainment such as live music, karaoke or DJs.
Booking accommodation in Fuerteventura shouldn’t prove a problem, with plenty of self-catering apartments,hotels and villas available in the main surfing areas and other large resorts.

5. La Palma, where to stay in the Canary Islands for natural beauty and hiking
La Palma, Isla Bonita. In English, Beautiful Island. The ideal place where romantic couples, young and old, can leave the maddening crowds far behind.
The fifth-largest (or third smallest) of the Canary Islands, at just 70km long and 30km wide, it is a province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Yet it remains an island virtually untouched by the rampant growth of commercial tourism.
Not only is it a favourite destination for those seeking a week or two just for themselves, but it is a popular draw with divers, nature lovers, walkers and hikers, who like nothing better than filling a backpack and spending their days close to nature.
The whole island is a designated UNESCO Biosphere site. Although born millions of years ago from the same volcanic eruptions as its bigger sisters, it is the greenest of the Canary Islands, with much of its flora found only on La Palma.
The island has five National Parks, Caldera de Taburiente National Park, El Cubo de La Galga, Laguna Barlovento Park, Las Nieves Natural Park and Cascada de Los Colores.
La Palma’s interior rises steeply, and at sea level you will find plant species that love the intense sunshine and salty air, such as Limoniumpectinatum and Astydamia latifolia.
From 100 to 400 metres high, you will find Euphorbia canariensis and Euphorbia balsamifera. While at 350 to 700 metres, the first trees begin to appear, typified by the Mount Atlas Mastic Tree, the Dragon Tree and the Canary Palm.
At around 700 metres the first Laurels are becoming evident, nurtured by the high moisture levels of the north and northeast Trade Winds, and higher up the ubiquitous Canary Pine takes over.
All are mixed with lava fields and their hues of black, red and ochre, volcanic cones and multi-coloured rocks and boulders.
For those days away from hiking, the island’s capital and main cruise port is Santa Cruz de La Palma, on the island’s east coast. It is a beautifully picturesque old Spanish town, with cobbled streets, tightly packed, pastel-coloured terraced properties, and colourful blooms cascading from balconies and plant pots.
Aside from the above, other popular places to stay to retain that romantic vibe include the pretty town of Llanos de Aridane, tucked in the valleys of central La Palma.
The small coastal village of Tazacorte, where you can enjoy a little time on the volcanic sand beach, and in the north of the island, Barlovento, with its rugged volcanic coastline.
Puntagorda in the northwest of La Palma is famous for its fine-dining and fresh seafood restaurants. While staying at Breña Baja, you are close to the island’s international airport, meaning less travelling time.
La Palma also has plenty to keep those with an interest in Canarian history, architecture and culture busy.
All over the island, and especially in the towns and cities, you will find copious examples of churches dating back to the 13th century, such as the Gothic church of Sant Jaume in the centre of Santa Cruz de La Palma.
Fine examples of traditional rural architecture can be found at Puntagorda, Villa de Garafía and Tijarafe, while museums highlighting the island’s architectural heritage can be found at Los Llanos (Benahoarita Archaeological Museum), La Zarza (Cultural Park), Villa de Garafia (Zarxita) and Villa de Mazo (Belmaco Archaeological Park).
For nightlife, an evening out on the Island of La Palma will be a decidedly low key affair, compared to some of the larger islands. Nonetheless, low key doesn’t mean any less enjoyable. In fact many would say just the opposite.
Whether you choose to stay in one of the smaller villages, towns or larger cities, you can expect to dine in friendly local restaurants serving the best of Canarian cuisine using fresh ingredients throughout.
Consider succulent grilled meat dishes served with fresh salad or vegetables and Canarian potatoes, or grilled tuna, swordfish, sea bass or parrot fish.
If you’re not sure, ask for a selection of tapas. Small tasting plates that help you find what really makes your taste buds tingle.
If you’re staying in Santa Cruz de La Palma, you can push the boat out for that special occasion in the Michelin starred restaurants of Casa Osmunda, or the El Rincon de Moraga.
For those romantic after-dinner drinks, wherever you stay in La Palma, there will be a bar you fall in love with. A bar where you can sip a long cocktail or glass of sparkling La Palma wine. And gaze up at the stars through the clear Canary Island sky.
Although organised trips and tours are available to help you visit the places you want to see on La Palma, a hire car is highly recommended, to be able to make the most of your time on the island.

6. La Gomera, one of the nicest places to stay in the Canary Islands for nature lovers
Almost circular in shape, little La Gomera lies to the west of Tenerife. At just 20km long and roughly the same wide, with high craggy cliffs and rocky black-sand coves all around the coast, you can always find somewhere to lay your towel.
Beaches though, are not why most people visit this exquisite island.
A UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 2012, the majority arrive to enjoy the hiking and biking trails, the plethora of endemic plant life, the different local fauna, and the traditional Spanish coastal towns and inland villages that make this island what it is.
Although tourism is helping improve the economy, the majority of its 20,000 population still make a living from fishing and agriculture, with bananas, dates, grapes, figs, cereals and tomatoes being the main crops.
The jewel in La Gomera’s crown is Garajonay National Park. A UNESCO World Heritage National Park since 1986, Alto de Garajonay is the highest point at 1457 metres above sea level, and the views are superb.
High humidity and mild temperatures provide a micro-climate that sustains species of plants not found elsewhere. Laurel forests, fir trees and pinewoods, heathers and succulents; all vie for nutrients in the valleys, the hills and mountain sides.
There are 18 well-marked trails to get you around the park and its different forests and rock formations, with free guided tours available on Fridays; and Wednesdays during the summer.
Around the island, you will find the picturesque Valle Gran Rey on the west coast. A popular visitor stop-over with a backdrop of rugged cliffs, water hewn barrancas and palm trees.
Alojera, a little further up on the northwest coast, is also popular with visitors preferring to stay around the coastal areas.
Around the northern curve of the island, you will find lush green valleys and net-covered banana plantations, old townhouses, a former convent and several churches on your walks.
Take in Agulo, with its twisting lanes and old colonial buildings, the traditional village of Hermigua and the Vallehermosa area, with its 400-metre high volcanic vent called Roque Cano.
On the island’s west coast lies San Sebastian de La Gomera, the island’s capital and main port. From here, there are daily ferries to Tenerife and the other Canary Islands.
Dating back to the 15th century, the town established itself as the island’s primary commercial port, and remains that way to this day.
Its range of boutique hotels and private lets, makes it a favourite area with visitors looking for where to stay in the Canary Islands after arriving by ferry from Tenerife.
Like the other Canary Islands, La Gomera has a balmy, spring-like climate year-round. So if sunshine plays a big part in your holiday plans, choose the south of La Gomera when deciding where to stay in the Canary Islands.
Dryer than the north, the arid soil is more suited to cacti, succulents, and splurge, with its greyish-green foliage and yellow bracts, that sprout on the plains and low hillsides.
The local airport is also found here, just 34km from San Sebastián de la Gomera; it provides air transport between the islands and a limited number of flights to European destinations.
You will also find the scenic fishing village of Playa de Santiago, with its traditional fishermen’s cottages and boats bobbing in the harbour.
At 800 metres high, you can also explore the small Canarian town of Alajero, with its surrounding fields lying fallow, waiting for the winter months to bring moisture in the fogs that sweep in from the sea.
Accommodation on La Gomera is limited to privately let studios and farmhouses, small apartments and a few boutique hotels.
Nightlife on La Gomera is relaxed and laid-back. Local café/bars and restaurants will offer a choice of tapas, and serve the best of Canarian stews, meat dishes, seafood and sweets.
All can be washed down with some of the best wines you will taste anywhere or a local beer like Dorada or Estrella.

7. El Hierro, great place to stay in the Canary Islands for eco-tourism
The second smallest and most westerly of the Canary Islands, El Hierro is both a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and Geopark.
At just over 270 square km in area and virtually untouched by international tourism, it is a popular destination with eco-tourists and the many scuba divers who arrive to explore the pristine turquoise waters and aquatic species in the various Marine Reserve areas.
It is also the first Canary Island to attain 100% self-sufficiency in renewable energy, using hydroelectric and wind power.
The island’s geography was formed over a million years ago and is one of sheer rugged cliffs, volcanic cones, plunging ravines and black/red topsoil.
The flora of this ancient landscape includes plant species in every hue of green, interspersed with amber, yellow and orange shrubs, juniper groves and succulents.
Areas of wild scrub and sectors of cultivated crops and flower meadows can be found in the valleys, on terraces, and around small traditional whitewashed cottages and villages. In contrast, woods and forests of pine and laurel stretch up the hillsides.
Whether you decide to stay a week or two weeks, you certainly won’t be short of things to do on El Hierro. A hire car will undoubtedly be an advantage to get around the island, but if not, you can do it on public transport, taxis or organised trips.
Visit San Andrés and the Garoé Visitors Centre, and learn the history of the lifesaving, water producing properties of the Garoé, or Sacred Tree.
Choose a day at the La Hoya del Morcillo recreational forest, close to the town of El Pinar. It is the only forest on the island with a campsite and picnic area.
Pencil in a visit to the Frontera Rural Park, including the Mencáfete Nature Reserve. Over 12,000 hectares of extraordinary nature reserve, with many hiking and biking trails are waiting in the island’s southwestern half.
The coastal areas shouldn’t be forgotten either during your exploration. Visit the Reserva Marina del Mar de Las Calmas, the Natural Beach Monument made up of volcanic landslides stretching over 9kms and 1,000m high, and the Roque de La Bonanza at Las Playas.
For those who prefer to enjoy their downtime sunbathing and swimming, El Hierro can provide the beaches.
Although not the large stretches of golden sand you enjoy on the larger islands, the natural high cliffs, large boulders, volcanic sand and crystalline waters of the almost deserted coastline make up for it.
Check out the following beaches dotted around the island: La Restinga, Cala de Tacorón, Charco Azul, La Maceta, Charco de los Sargos, Cala de Timijiraque, Charco Manso, Tamaduste, El Verodal and Arenas Blancas.
If you enjoy basic during your time in the Canary Islands, on El Hierro, you’ve got it. There are no high-rise hotels or apartment complexes, no lifts, and only a couple of main roads.
That said, there are several small, pleasant boutique hotels, bed and breakfast establishments, guest houses, private apartments, fincas and country cottages available around the island.
You can even choose a spa hotel in the north of the island. Or a forest campsite at Morcillo.
The island can be reached either by ferry from Los Cristianos, Tenerife, or by daily flights from Gran Canaria or Tenerife.

La Graciosa, warm sunshine, crystal clear waters, golden sand beaches and total relax
You could be forgiven for having a quick glance at the top of the page, to check we’re still discussing the best places to stay in the Canary Islands.
A few years ago, La Graciosa was just another islet laying 6km off the coast of Lanzarote and unknown by the vast majority of visitors who arrived every year to stay in the Canary Islands.
In 2018, all that changed when Spain’s General Commission of the Autonomous of the Senate decreed it could become the 8th Canary Island. Now, La Graciosa is a fully-fledged island, and a part of the Lanzarote Marine Nature reserve.
A favourite dive site with snorkelers and scuba divers. It is also very popular with bird watchers who arrive to catalogue the many seabirds, falcons, kestrels, ospreys and other birds of prey that nest and hunt from the surrounding cliffs.
Just 29 square km in area, with no road infrastructure, two small villages and around 600 residents, it cries out to be explored.
Unfortunately, the only way you can get here is via a 30-minute ferry crossing from Lanzarote, with the last boat of the day leaving for Lanzarote at 19.00hrs.
Away from the pristine beaches, La Graciosa’s interior is arid and barren, with little in the way of vegetation. What there is, is protected. Created 3000 to 5000 years ago, the island was formed by four volcanoes, with falling ash and sand filling the plains.
Trails are marked out to the north and south to visit the volcano of Montaña Bermeja in the north and Montaña Amarilla in the south. You can also explore Montaña Pedro Barba and its twin peaks. All offer spectacular views across the island, Lanzarote and out to sea.
For the hikers and bikers, trails to all inland areas are carefully laid out, and detouring from them will be frowned on by any rangers in the area.
Without any roadways, mountain bikes are the favourite mode of two-wheeled transport, and if you don’t have your own, they can be hired at Caleta de Sebo.
The two villages are Casas de Pedro Barba by the harbour, and Caleta del Sebo. Both have a limited number of private lodgings available, which are best booked online prior to your visit if you want to be sure of a roof.
A basic campsite is located at Playa de El Salado, and can be booked on your arrival.
With a small supermarket and a couple of local bars and restaurants, you should be able to pick up all you need for a day on the beach, enjoy a pleasant lunch, and buy a couple of souvenirs of your time on La Graciosa.
If you have any special needs, essential medication or dietary requirements, take them with you.
When you arrive at the harbour, you will see several old Land Rovers lined up that double as taxis, to ferry you to any of the island’s glorious beaches.
These taxis also offer round the island tours, and are a great way to get a better perspective of the island while maximising your beach time. Be sure to take plenty of sunblock, sun hats and shades.
It is some years now since La Graciosa attained the dizzy heights of a fully-fledged island, and it remains virtually unknown save by those who regularly visit Lanzarote.
If you would like to visit this little Canarian gem while it remains just as nature intended, booking sooner rather than later is recommended.

List of the Canary Islands and their features
Using our short guide to the islands, you will be able to find something suitable for you and decide on the choice of a holiday destination in the Canary Islands.
Gran Canaria
The charm of Gran Canaria (Gran canaria) lies in its varied countryside and over 200 km of coastline.

Tenerife is an ideal island for hiking with its many trails through the island’s national parks. Of course, relaxing on beautiful sandy beaches, seaside resorts and rugged coves is also not to be missed. Local beaches are some of the best in Europe , but at the same time, one of the most popular.
Lanzarote
When you first come to Lanzarote, you will be mesmerized by its beauty. It is a lunar terrain of black, arid soil dotted with volcanoes and covered with dry lava flows, where only cacti grow.
It’s worth visiting the Timanfaya National Park to get close to the volcanoes. Less touristy than Fuerteventura or Tenerife , the island has retained its authenticity, where you can see local houses with white walls and feel the history of the islands.
Lanzarote also has museums and beautiful monuments, many of which are the work of César Manrique, famous architect and resident of island. Manrique has left his mark on the architecture of the island, combining styles that are in harmony with nature. His Mirador del Rio offers an incredible view of Isla de la Graciosa (Isla de la Graciosa), and in his cactus garden you will be amazed by the variety of flora and contrasts of colors.
The spectacular caves of the volcanic island , the salt marshes, its green lagoon and magnificent beaches are also amazing – you will not find such landscapes anywhere else.
La Gomera
The green and lush nature of the island of La Gomera is hidden from visitors and prying eyes. You can get here by ferry and this place will surprise you with its silence and its peaceful environment. The main activities here are hiking from the seashore to the tops of the mountains, turned into terraced farmland, the hike passes through banana plantations, rocky valleys and fog-covered forest.
The top view from the highest peak, the Alto de Garajonay National Park, allows you to watch whales and dolphins. All you have to do is arrive in the right season and arm yourself with binoculars.
El Hierro
The smallest of the Canary Islands, El Hierro is also not exactly a tourist destination. This is the realm of wild nature and beautiful landscapes, where a calm atmosphere of rural life reigns.
Volcanic landscapes reach 1500 meters above sea level, meadows with grazing cows and sheep stretch for kilometers, and banana plantations and an ancient pine forest can shelter you from the heat in the Sahara region. The waters of the Atlantic Ocean are always quite cool, so it won’t get too hot here.
Saint-Martin
The capital of Saint-Martin and its largest settlement is Marigot.
On the hill above it rises the city’s main historical landmark – Fort Louis. Built by the Spaniards in 1692, it was soon abandoned. And in 1789, the French strengthened and expanded it, naming it in honor of the then ruling monarch, Louis XVI. From the walls of the fort, stunning views of the city and the sea open up. The road to it passes along the main street – Rue de la République.
It vividly illustrates the Franco-Caribbean architecture of the late 19th century typical of Marigot – graceful houses on several floors with openwork balconies-terraces. There are many restaurants, fashion boutiques, cosmetics and electronics stores, jewelry stores offering products of the most prestigious brands. And since Saint-Martin is a duty-free zone, the prices for goods are pleasantly surprising. The open-air Marigot Market is considered the largest in the entire Caribbean. Here you can buy fragrant Creole spices, unusual sauces, tropical fruits, the freshest seafood, products of local artisans. For a unique cultural experience, visit the Roland Richardson Gallery. And admire the beautiful sunset and yachts swaying steadily on the water – in the marina of Port La Royale. There are also several excellent fish restaurants here.
Grand Case
The Creole village of Grand Case is recognized as the unsurpassed gastronomic center of all the Caribbean islands. More than three dozen restaurants operate here. The village has a peculiar tradition. Establishments along the Boulevard de Grand Case write their menus on special boards outside at the entrance. So it is very easy for tourists to choose a place with dishes to taste during a walk. The cuisine of Saint Martin is a mixture of European, Creole and Caribbean traditions. Its base is fish and seafood, which are mined in the waters near the island. It is worth trying the original soups Sopi-di-piss (fish-coconut) and Sopi-di-binja (based on wine), krokeshi (fish meatballs), wahoo or snapper fried on coals. Meat is also served here. Tourists especially like cabrito stoba (stewed lamb), ayacas roll and steak with lemon and Caribbean spices. But the side dishes here are very simple – boiled rice, beans, fresh vegetables. Sauces are a must. You can drink all this splendor with expensive vintage wine. And you can try local beer (Heineken, Balashi, Amstel) or the original Guavaberry liqueur. In addition to gastronomic delights, Grand Case is famous for the Atelier des Tropismes gallery, which exhibits contemporary Caribbean artists, and the Church of Mary the Star of the Sea. The village has a large sandy beach where you can go diving.
Tintamarre
Tintamarre Island, 4 km from Saint Martin, currently uninhabited. It is part of a nature reserve and a great place to relax. Baie Blanche is located on its western coast. It is known for its beautiful swimming beach with fine sand and crystal clear waters. On the opposite side of Tintamarra, the coast is more rocky. However, it is great for diving and snorkeling. There are sea turtles, many colorful fish and corals grow here. From February to May, dolphins appear near the island. Scuba divers will appreciate the opportunity to explore the wreck off the northwest coast. Tintamarre is covered in lush greenery. Several picnic tables can be found in the shade of the trees. But there is no other infrastructure. You will have to bring food and water with you. You will also need a pair of sturdy shoes for those who want to explore the area. Previously, an airline was based on the island, and the inhabitants were engaged in growing cotton. During the walk, you can find an almost destroyed airstrip and a small rail track that led to the plantation. There are several interesting caves on the rocky coast of the island.
Pinel
Another uninhabited island is Pinel. It is located very close to Saint Martin. A small ferry runs regularly between them. You can also swim here by boat, kayak or paddleboard. This is a very popular place among tourists, as it combines all the delights of wild recreation and the comfort of a well-organized space. Tourists are brought to the main beach. There are two restaurants on its territory. At the pier itself – Yellow Beach, and at the grapefruit grove – Karibuni. There is a gift shop nearby. They sell bright island-style pareos and other beach paraphernalia. This part of the coastline is well equipped with umbrellas and sunbeds that you can rent. The restaurants serve fish and seafood dishes. The opposite (northern) side of the island is wild and uninhabited. To get to it, you need to go along the path, bypassing iguanas basking in the sun. The beaches here are protected by a reef. This secluded place is very much appreciated by divers and snorkelers, and also by lovers of sunbathing without clothes. From Pinel, by kayak or paddleboard, you can get to the islet of Petite Clef. There is a sandbar in front of it, where you can fix a watercraft at the buoy. This is an absolutely wild place for those who want complete privacy.
Best dive sites | Swedbank blogs
Diving or snorkeling has long been a popular pastime for tourists.
There is a growing number of people wishing to get acquainted with the diversity of the underwater world, so diving tours are becoming more and more popular among travelers every year.
Dive boldly!
Before embarking on an underwater adventure, you must complete training to obtain an international diving certificate. In Latvia, several schools offer this opportunity, and prices range from 250 to 400 euros. The dive itself without your equipment will cost you up to 50 euros at a time. You will have to pay up to 1000 euros for your own equipment, while used equipment can be purchased at half the price. It will pay off if diving becomes your passion – having your own equipment will save you about 20 euros per dive.
When going on a diving trip, it is very important to choose the right insurance that covers all possible risks. For such cases, Swedbank offers insurance for active recreation and high-risk activities. In the case of diving, it is suitable if you are going to dive to a depth of more than 10 meters with the obligatory possession of a Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI) certificate or an equivalent certificate confirming the qualification of a diver. In addition, equipment can be insured.

Tip: if you choose the most profitable time to fly to Spain, you should pay attention to the off-season – the lowest prices for air tickets from Moscow (direct flight) are set in November, January and February. Booking a hotel is also quite cheap during this period. We advise you to search either on RoomGuru (hotels and hostels) or on Airbnb (apartments).

Nevertheless, information about resorts, attractions and weather in Spain is not outdated – little can change with them. But entering and staying in Spain is a difficult task, but already possible. You can travel to Spain through third countries (for example, Hungary or Greece) or directly if you have a vaccination certificate issued in Europe. We have a large article on the rules of entry, which we try to update in a timely manner. We have corrected this article.
Beach season in Spain. Weather in Barcelona
So, if your goal is to soak up the gentle waves of the Mediterranean Sea, let’s figure out when the season begins and ends? In general, the weather in Spain is very friendly for tourists, but it has its own nuances depending on the month and region of the holiday. So in the popular resort of Costa Brava in the northern part of the Mediterranean coast, the sea warms up a little later than in southern Spain; the swimming season in the hot Canary Islands lasts all year round. Accordingly, you can go here even in winter (December-January).

Vacationers with children choose the family resorts of the Costa Dorada, Mallorca, hospitable Tenerife – the island of eternal spring.
Reviews of experienced tourists will help you decide where and when it is better to relax in Spain. However, it is reliably known: in order to combine beach and cultural holidays, go to the capital of Catalonia – Barcelona 🙂
Interesting: The best resorts for holidays in Spain >>
The climate in Spain
The climate of Spain almost throughout the country has a mild Mediterranean character with dry hot summers and sunny warm winters. Thanks to favorable weather conditions, you can relax in the homeland of Carmen and flamenco in any season. But still, the average temperatures in Spain vary by month, depending on the regions.
Despite high temperatures, summer is the most popular time of the year to visit Spain. If you do not like excessively hot climate and heat, we recommend planning a trip for June – the thermometer usually does not rise above 24-25°C, you can combine a beach holiday with sightseeing of remarkable places. In July-August, the temperature rises to 30-35°C, especially in the southern regions of the country – a ticket to Barcelona or the north of the country, where the temperatures are more comfortable, would be a good choice.
Spain in the spring
There is still no swimming in Barcelona in May, but all the locals spend the weekend on the beach
Spring is a great season to visit Spain and Barcelona in particular, a time of colorful holidays and spectacular festivals. Spain in March is a good and economical option for a sightseeing tour. Due to the fact that the air temperature is still very low for sunbathing, the rest will be cheaper than in the high season. However, some southern islands are already ready to receive tourists for a beach holiday in the first month of spring. April, like March, is good for cultural and educational leisure – clear weather, lack of excitement allow you to truly feel the atmosphere of this original country. Spain in May (towards the end of the month) opens the swimming season.
Spain in autumn
The weather in September is warm and clear, the August heat subsides – the so-called velvet season begins. Barcelona beaches are emptying, and the entertainment life of the city, on the contrary, is gaining momentum. October still retains warm days, but at the end of the month comes the rainy season. The weather in Barcelona in November can bring surprises in the form of precipitation and wind.
Spain in winter
Winter weather is characterized by mildness, comfortable temperature, plenty of sunny days. In December, Barcelona will give vacationers vivid emotions, the magic of the New Year and Christmas mood.
In January, in addition to festive fairs and festivities, there are bright flamenco festivals. Winter Spain will please fans of shopping with an abundance of cool winter sales.
When is the cheapest time to go to Spain?
The high season in Spain lasts from late June to mid-September and ends with the La Merce festival. At this time, the highest prices for vacations are noted. If you are planning to visit Barcelona or another Spanish resort and save money at the same time, you should plan your trip during the low season, which falls on the period from November to April. The advantages of rest are the absence of intrusive crowds of tourists, moderate weather and attractive prices for the tour.
What else you need to know: Travel to Spain as cheap as possible >>
You can relax on the sea and not overpay for a ticket at the end of the tourist season in September – the water is still warm and suitable for swimming, there is no burning heat – which will be a big plus if you are traveling with a child.
You can buy an inexpensive tour on Travelata
Find suitable flights – on Aviasales
On Airbnb (not hotels here, but apartments)

Season of discounts and sales in Spain. Shopping in Barcelona
Shopping in Spain deserves special attention, many tourists rush to this country just for this. Modern Barcelona is a real mecca for notorious shopaholics, comparable to the possibilities of Madrid, Paris or Milan. The summer season of discounts in Spain is considered the longest in Europe, it lasts from July to early September. You can save from 20 to 70%. The second wave of discounts falls on the winter-spring season.
Shopping malls and outlets near Barcelona
If you’re visiting Barcelona, you won’t have a dilemma what to bring from Spain – craft fairs, flea markets and souvenir shops offer a rich variety of interesting national souvenirs.
The most popular outlet in Barcelona is the famous La Roca Village, where you can buy inexpensive collection items from fashion shows, shoes and clothes from last season’s collections, jewelry, handbags and other accessories. Especially for tourists, the Barcelona Shopping Line buses run around almost all the iconic shopping centers and outlets in Barcelona in one route.
Where else to go to enjoy shopping in Barcelona? Shopping centers El Corte Ingles, Pedralbes Centre, Maremagnum. In the vicinity of the city, in a 15-minute drive, you can visit the large Viladecans outlet.
Sales dates in Spain
Global sales in Barcelona, like almost everywhere in Europe, take place 2 times a year. We bring to your attention the dates of the season 2022:
In summer – from July 1 to August 31;
In winter – from January 7 to March 6.
If you are planning on shopping, it makes sense to visit the outlets during the first weeks of sales in Barcelona – by the end of the discount season, the range of goods is significantly reduced.
When is the best time to go to Spain? Undoubtedly, this is a hospitable country, interesting for travel regardless of the season. But still, the choice of the optimal tour time depends only on you and the goals of your trip. 🙂 We love Barcelona in spring — when you can walk the streets all day, there is no hot sun and crowds of tourists. Although we were also in July, having caught the sales season and bought a lot of things.

We are going to rest in the Canary Islands: where are the Canary Islands, which country do they belong to.
Holidays in the Canary Islands: weather, beaches, attractions, reviews
June 23, 2019

The Canary Islands have long been popular with travelers from Britain and the northern regions of Europe who miss the bright sun and warm weather. Here you can find a wide variety of entertainment, from water sports, exciting hiking trails and ending with visiting architectural monuments, colonial cities. But at the same time, inexperienced tourists often have many questions about exactly where these islands are located, what are their features, what other travelers say about this area.
Geographic location
“Where are the Canaries and what is their location?” – one of the main questions of interest to many travelers. From a political point of view, the Canary Islands are part of Europe. In most restaurants, hotels and shops, tourists can easily communicate in English.
However, according to their geographical location, it is more correct to attribute them to Africa. The islands lie east of the central Atlantic Ocean. The closest neighboring country to them – Morocco – is 112 km away from the island of Fuerteventura. There is no ferry service between the Canaries and Morocco, which is also important for those who are interested in where the Canaries are located. Therefore, travelers must first cross the Spanish mainland. From there you can take a ferry to the islands.
On the map you can see how close the Canary Islands are to Africa. Which country is closest to them is also visible in the diagram. This is Morocco and the territory of Western Sahara.
The islands are located in the ocean, but officially belong to Spain. The Canaries are one of the autonomous communities of this state. By the way, they received such status back in 1982. Since then, no one has any doubts about what the Canary Islands are. Which country they belong to is also clear – the archipelago is part of Spain as an autonomous territory. Also at 19In 86, the Canary Islands joined the EU on special terms.
Climate
This heavenly place is located, of course, in the subtropics. And here it is important not only where the Canaries are located, but also what other features that affect the local weather. The climate here is formed under the influence of trade winds. They bring fresh air to the sun-warmed islands. Proximity to the equator and the warm current of the Gulf Stream determine the softness and warmth of weather conditions. On the islands of Fuerteventura and in some areas of Lanzarote, the weather can be much drier; these areas sometimes suffer from insufficient rainfall. Therefore, when considering the question of where the Canaries are located, one should take into account the characteristics of each individual island. A slight difference in weather conditions may still be present.
Slight differences between different islands
Separate pieces of the archipelago are located so close to each other that one island can be easily observed from the shores of another. But at the same time, climatic conditions can vary on each of them. On those islands that can boast of high mountains (La Palma, Tenerife, La Gomera, El Hierro), much more precipitation falls than on the plains of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. Where it rains more often, and the vegetation is denser, more diverse. As for the plains of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, the climate on them is almost the same in any part of their territory. Vegetation is sparse and uniform.
In general, the Canary Islands is a place of the so-called eternal spring, where the sun shines more than 300 days a year. That is why holidays in the Canary Islands are so popular. The average annual temperature in Tenerife is about +25 °C; sea water warms up to +28 °С. The warmest month is August, when the thermometer rises to +29 °C.
The coldest time is January. The air temperature in winter is about +20 °C, and sometimes drops below +13 °C. Usually, a vacation in the Canary Islands means just a sweet pastime on the beach, swimming and walking. Therefore, the winter period is not particularly popular with travelers.
It hardly rains in the Canaries during the summer months. In spring, autumn and winter, of course, precipitation can even fall for several days in a row. But when the season is high in the Canary Islands, rainfall becomes a rarity. This is the period from August to October. At this time, the resort has the most tourists, as the weather is conducive to a better rest.
When to go on vacation?
In general, the best time to visit the Canary Islands is from April to October. In Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, located in the east, warm weather reigns all year round, so there are no time limits here. The mountainous islands of the western region – La Palma, El Hierro, La Gomera, Tenerife and Gran Canaria – are best visited at any time of the year except winter. Indeed, in the period from December to February, the temperature here becomes moderate, dropping to +20 … +23 ° С.
The tourist season in the Canary Islands is in the summer. But if travelers want to save money, then they can choose any autumn or spring month.
Canary Islands: names and brief descriptions
We list the main islands that are popular with travelers.
Tenerife. The main point that attracts tourists from all over the world and at the same time the largest island of the entire archipelago.
Gran Canaria. It ranks first in terms of the number of inhabitants, has a developed infrastructure and no less attractive natural beauty.
Fuerteventura. A peaceful place for those who seek serenity.
Lanzarote. Famous for its reserves, volcanoes.
La Palma. A small island with beautiful nature. Famous for its black sand beach.
Hierro. The westernmost of all the islands and the smallest.
Homer Island. A charming island that will impress fans of ecotourism.
Now we have considered not only where the Canary Islands are located, but also the main tourist points. Depending on their preferences, travelers can choose one or another island; however, we can safely say that none of them will leave the tourist indifferent. After all, wonderful nature is a property inherent in each of the islands of the archipelago.
Getting there
Flying to the Canary Islands is no problem. Five of them have international airports. For example, planes from Russia arrive at an airport located in the southern part of the island of Tenerife (there are two of them in total – there is also a northern one).
Features of the flight will depend on the starting point. From some countries there is no direct communication. For example, to get to the Canaries from Kyiv, you will have to make a transfer – first fly to Barcelona or Madrid, and only there you can take a direct plane to the Canaries.
Main coasts. Tenerife
Now consider the main reason why travelers come here – the beaches of the Canary Islands. Many tourists consider the beaches of this island to be the best place on earth. Strips of soft golden sand are located along the coast, and on the territory of the beaches with the most developed infrastructure there are a large number of various holiday homes, hotels, restaurants and sports facilities.
According to tourists, there is where to relax on the beach “El Medano”. But it is more suitable for surfers. To the west are the small “Playa Santiago” and “Playa de la Arena”. They are protected by rocky headlands; The coast is surrounded by lush parks.
“El Boyoyo”
One of the most popular beaches in Tenerife, famous for its black sand. In fact, ocean waves bring it here from the shores of the Sahara desert. “El Boyoyo” is a separate world that differs from other beaches in its unusualness, which is why it is also very popular among travelers.
The beaches of Fuerteventura
According to travelers, the local coastlines are rarely overcrowded with vacationers to the eyeballs. On the one hand, they are well suited to fans of a calm, measured pastime. On the other hand, the infrastructure here is poorly developed.
On the northern coast of the island is Corralejo, a fishing port that is also a popular surfing center.
“Playa Sotavento”, which means “leeward beach”, has long earned a reputation in Fuerteventura as the best place for fans of golden sand and gentle sun. It is located along the entire southern coast of the Jandia Peninsula, in the very south of the island. 30 km of golden sand, stretching along the sea line, are washed by turquoise waters. No wonder these landscapes attract travelers from all over the world.
“Famara” (Lanzarote)
Another point that is rarely overlooked by beach lovers. “Famara” is surrounded by picturesque mountains. The coast is very popular among surfers and paragliders.
“Hermigua” (Gomera Island)
Everyone loves this island for its natural National Park called Garajonay. Its area is huge – almost 4000 hectares. However, it cannot be said that this attraction is more important for tourists than the beautiful coasts of the island. One of the most attractive beaches is “Hermigua”, located in the northeast.
What to visit? Teide National Park (Tenerife)
One of the main attractions of the Canaries. The height of the Teide volcano is 3718 meters. It rises above the small island of Tenerife, the most famous of all the Canary Islands. The Teide National Park, included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, is also interesting for travelers with the opportunity to go inside the huge volcanic crater.
Its bottom is 19 km in diameter, and driving through this barren landscape is like traveling to the center of the earth. In fact, this crater is the remains of a large mountain that exploded about 3 million years ago. In some places, walls of volcanic rock remained here, towering 457 m above sea level.
Timanfaya National Park, Lanzarote
This island is much older in origin than Tenerife. The last volcanic eruptions that shaped the modern landscape of the island occurred between 1730 and 1736. In those days, 11 villages were buried under the lava. The population left the island, which was once considered the Garden of Eden.
When the eruptions stopped, the farmers returned to their former places of residence and began to cultivate the ash-covered land. Local volcanic landscapes, including the still active crater, are managed by the Timanfaya National Park, also included in the UNESCO list.
Santa Cruz de Tenerife
Many tourists recommend visiting the capital of Tenerife. It is a lively and inviting city that also has several architectural highlights. Chief among them is the magnificent Auditorio de Tenerife Opera House. Its concert hall has a sea view. The building was designed by the Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. World-class performers, including renowned orchestra conductors, perform here.
There are other places of interest in Santa Cruz that are recommended for tourists. For example, this is the Museum of Fine Arts, where you can admire the works of Spanish, Flemish and Canarian artists.
At the Museum of Nature and Man, you can learn more about the cultural characteristics of the indigenous people of Tenerife; about how the natives lived before the arrival of European settlers.
Works by César Manrique, Lanzarote Island
This artist is remembered not only for his work, but also for his dedication to preserving the culture of his home island of Lanzarote. It was Cesar who launched the campaign to save the island from the rampant tourist overrun that has destroyed so many other holiday destinations. Manrique built a number of landmarks. These include his personal home Taro de Tahiche, built in the form of several underground bubbles formed by lava flows. The abandoned fort, converted by the artist into the International Museum of Modern Art, is also interesting.
What travelers themselves advise
According to tourists, the Canary Islands are a good place not only for a beach holiday, but also for all kinds of entertainment. However, if the traveler wants to try everything that is offered here (besides, of course, a beach holiday), then you will have to prepare a considerable amount of money. By the way, tourists themselves are advised to keep money on cards. After all, thefts are not so rare here, you can be left without a penny. You can have a small amount of cash, but only for basic pocket expenses. So it is important not only to know where the Canary Islands are located, but also how to relax safely in this resort.
There are also exchange offices in the archipelago. You can always exchange dollars for euros, although the exchange rate may not be entirely profitable. So this should be taken care of in advance.

The end of autumn, which means it’s time to fly to the Canary Islands. In Europe, there is no longer a single place with warm weather, except for the Canary Islands. Now I’m planning my trip. Who is tired of Thailand in winter, Tenerife is a great alternative. In the end, spend about the same, and the level of comfort and food in restaurants are familiar, European.
Los Gigantes in Tenerife
Let me remind you that the Canary Islands belong to Spain. Any Schengen visa is required. There are 7 major islands in total. If you do not know where to fly, choose Tenerife. There are direct flights there.
Flight to Tenerife
This year, in addition to Aeroflot, S7 flights appeared on the Moscow-Tenerife route in the regular schedule, which favorably affected the price. For example, last year the average price of a direct flight in both directions was about 30,000 ₽, and this year, look what a freebie.
Go to my low price calendar and check the box for direct flights only.
Price calendar for air tickets to Tenerife
The lowest price for S7 without luggage is about 16,500₽
We switch to the price with luggage. It turns out about 19800 ₽
S7 with luggage
Aeroflot is also not far behind and offers a price of 23 200 ₽ in both directions with luggage for almost any date except holidays.

I do not consider tickets with transfers, because they are only a couple of thousand cheaper. It makes no sense.
When to fly to Tenerife?
Tenerife has excellent warm weather 22-26˚C all year round. But in the summer there is no point in flying there, since there are a lot of other summer destinations. But from November to March, Tenerife has no competitors in Europe. When snow and slush are everywhere, Tenerife is warm and sunny.
Where to stay on the island?
We lived in Tenerife in late autumn and winter, so I can say with confidence where the weather is better at this time. I draw a map for the autumn-winter period.
Where to live in Tenerife?
I advise South West:
Los Gigantes or Puerto de Santiago (Hotels at)
Costa Adeje (Hotels in )
Las Americas (Hotels on or apartments on AirBnB)
Los Cristianos (Hotels on or apartments on AirBnB)
These are the best places for infrastructure, beaches and weather in winter. I swam in the winter. The water temperature was around 22˚C. Cheerfully, but bearable.

As summer continues in Tenerife, July’s events’ scene heats up. First up, Canarias Jazz & Más offers a number of concerts across the Canary Islands. There’s jazz and more from a range of local and national artists at venues in La Laguna, Puerto de la Cruz, and Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Check the programme to see which concerts are free and those you have to pay for.
While there are no national bank holidays on the island, there are various public holidays across a number of Tenerife municipalities. For example, the Fiestas del Carmen take place in fishing communities up and down the island. If you only go to one, make it Puerto de la Cruz’s, where a throng of worshippers crowd the dock to see a statue of the Virgin Carmen carried by locals onto a boat and a subsequent lavish maritime procession.
Although Tenerife was conquered by Spain at the end of the 15th century, there have been subsequent British invasions and we don’t mean by the tourists in summer. Where Sir Walter Raleigh failed, so did Admiral Nelson, who lost his right arm as the British Navy attempted to take Santa Cruz de Tenerife in 1797. They reenact the battle each year in July.

We base the humidity comfort level on the dew point, as it determines whether perspiration will evaporate from the skin, thereby cooling the body. Lower dew points feel drier and higher dew points feel more humid. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between night and day, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while the temperature may drop at night, a muggy day is typically followed by a muggy night.
The chance that a given day will be muggy at Tenerife South Airport is rapidly increasing during July, rising from 14% to 31% over the course of the month.
For reference, on August 31, the muggiest day of the year, there are muggy conditions 45% of the time, while on January 14, the least muggy day of the year, there are muggy conditions 0% of the time.

Temperature and Dew Point
Tenerife South Airport has a weather station that reported reliably enough during the analysis period that we have included it in our network. When available, historical temperature and dew point measurements are taken directly from this weather station. These records are obtained from NOAA’s Integrated Surface Hourly data set, falling back on ICAO METAR records as required.
In the case of missing or erroneous measurements from this station, we fall back on records from nearby stations, adjusted according to typical seasonal and diurnal intra-station differences. For a given day of the year and hour of the day, the fallback station is selected to minimize the prediction error over the years for which there are measurements for both stations.
In this case, the only station close and reliable enough to use as a fallback is Gran Canaria Airport.

Tenerife South Airport
Provincia de Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain
July has the perfect weather for exploring Tenerife (beyond the resorts in the south)
July means full-on summer in Tenerife, and this translates to high temperatures, low chances of precipitation and moderate chances of calima.
July and August are the months when Tenerife is visited by families with children who are on their school holiday and also many Spaniards come to the island on their summer holiday. If winter in the Canary Islands is the season when most of the visitors are from the UK, Germany and the Nordic countries, summer is a different story. There are still many foreign visitors, but there are also many Spaniards from the peninsula coming to Tenerife.

Things to do in Tenerife in July
If in winter the Canaries have virtually no competition in Europe in terms of warm weather, the situation changes in summer. Greece, Portugal, the south of France, mainland Spain and the Balearics are also hugely popular during the summer months. So you would maybe think that July might be a slow month in Tenerife. Which is totally WRONG!
Summer is still high season in Tenerife and July makes no exception. The weather is pretty much guaranteed to be gorgeous and hot in July in Tenerife, so this is the reason why so many people choose to come here during this month.
If the month of June in Tenerife is usually warm and pleasant, with low chances of rain, July is even HOTTER and drier, with virtually no chances of precipitation in the south of the island.
July is the month to visit Tenerife if you are after long sunbathing days when the sun is up in the sky from the early morning hours and until late in the evening.
Beware of sunburns and use a factor 50 sun cream, as the UV index gets pretty high in the Canary Islands during summer and your skin will thank you for giving it protection. And don’t worry, in July you will get a tan just by walking outside, you don’t even have to lounge all day on the beach.
July is also a perfect month for exploring the north, as the weather will be also warm and dry on most days. If months like January or February might prove to be a gamble for spending your winter holiday in Tenerife in the north of Tenerife due to the high chances of precipitation, July is considered a dry month even as far as the north is concerned.
Tenerife South in July
Beaches in Tenerife South are packed in July, just like you would expect them to be.
Most visitors come here to take full advantage of the warm and gorgeous weather, which translated to spending all day around the pool or on the beach. When you see those videos of people fighting for sunbeds around hotel pools, the highest probability is that they were filmed either in July or August.
So, as a side note: don’t throw your towel on a sunbed, only to disappear for hours on end! It’s not fair towards other hotel guests to keep your towel sitting on a sunbed when you are not even there to use it. Many hotels also now have sunbed monitors, so if you leave yours unattended for a long period of time, your towel will be removed so that other guests can use the sunbed.
Temperatures in Tenerife in July
Although Tenerife might not get as hot as some of the other popular summer destinations that we have presented earlier, the temperatures are still around 30°C during the daytime. And at 30°C in Tenerife in July, on a clear sunny day, you will not wish for more – or at least this is the case for us.
The average high temperature in July in Tenerife is around 28°C (82°F), while at night you can expect temperatures of around 20. 2°C (68.4°F). During the day, the temperature is just perfect for sunbathing and swimming, while at night it’s pleasantly cool.

Record low & record high temperatures
The highest temperature recorded in Tenerife South in July was 42.9°C (109.2°F) and the lowest was 16.8°C (62.2°F) – measured at Tenerife South Aiport station.
Do you need a cardigan in Tenerife in July?
This is one of the top questions we get especially from first-time visitors to Tenerife, and it’s not just concerning the month of July, but any other month of the year, since people don’t know what to expect.
Our advice, for any trip, not just to Tenerife, would be to always bring a carding or a denim jacket with you, since some nights might be breezy or you might perceive the temperatures as cooler than they actually are, especially if you’ve been in the sun all day.
Although most people won’t use a cardigan or jacket in Tenerife in July, you should have one with you especially if you want to visit the north of the island, where it will probably be cooler than in the resorts in Tenerife south.

Things to do in Tenerife in July
July is for beach holidays and time spent swimming in the sea or lounging by the pool with a cocktail in hand.
But if you want to explore and discover the island beyond Tenerife South, this is a perfect time to do so. You can find plenty of inspiration in regards to how you can spend you days here in Tenerife, but for July this is what we recommend:
Discover the wild beaches of Anaga Rural Park
Playa de Benijo, a famous wild beach in Anaga, Tenerife – Canary Islands
Summer is the perfect season to explore Anaga Rural Park, go on hikes, and spend time on its wild and beautiful beaches.
During the winter months, the weather can be quite tricky and swimming definitely is not recommended, but you can go there during summer to enjoy these less touristic places. Take care when going into the water, because the currents are strong in this part of the island and swimming is dangerous, plus most beaches don’t have lifeguards.
Bajamar Natural Pools
The natural pool in Bajamar, Tenerife
In winter, the natural pools in Bajamar are often photographed by visitors attracted there by the huge waves that come crashing violently into the rocks.
In summer you can actually enjoy the pools and swim there with all the locals and tourists that gather here.
Maritime Park Cesar Manrique in Santa Cruz de Tenerife
We know that Siam Park is great, but if you want to try something different, come to Santa Cruz de Tenerife!
Parque Marítimo César Manrique has 3 saltwater swimming pools in a location that was designed by the famous artist Cesar Manrique.
If during winter these pools can be too chilly to be able to swim comfortably, in summer the park is filled with locals and children. The entrance to the park costs just 5€ (includes also a hammock), so it’s super affordable to go in just for a swim.
Events in July
Siam Nights at Siam Park in July
Lost City at Siam Park (children’s area)
Only in July and August visitors can have the chance to enjoy a special experience at Siam Park, the best water park in Spain!
Siam Nights are usually organized only on Fridays and Saturdays of July and August and you can experience the same thrilling rides under the magic of the night in Tenerife South.

Weather in Tenerife in July
Compared to June, in July it gets quite hot in Tenerife, but given that the island is located in the middle of the ocean, due to the pleasant breeze, unbearable heat and stuffiness almost never happen. The average daily temperature in Tenerife is +28°C, but it can also be over +30. At night it is +20°C, so it is warm in the evening and it is pleasant to take walks at this time. The sea temperature in July reaches +22 °C. For those who like to stay in the water for a long time, Tenerife is hardly suitable, because the water in the ocean rarely exceeds +24 degrees. Usually, in July there is almost no rain in Tenerife, but there is cloudiness, especially in the mornings, which, as a rule, dissipates by noon. Note that in the southern part of the island it is warmer than in the north, including the water in the ocean.

Anfi Tauro Golf Club is located in the south of Gran Canaria, 10 minutes from Maspalomas. Opened in 2007 by architect Robert von Hagge, inspired by Arizona style, this innovative and exciting 18-hole course. Volcanic colors, rich vegetation, volcano-shaped mountains; the frame instantly immerses you in the set! The Anfi Tauro golf course is very pleasant, quite technical but nevertheless accessible to everyone. Decor and impeccable care are really virtues, but they can quickly become enemies… Be precise and don’t let yourself be distracted by the unusual and privileged view that opens before your eyes!

Great gay facility and friendly staff.
Rainbow G. – G B R I say it has stayed at others and understanding how personal Antonio and his staff make a resort. You are treated like a friend, not just a guest, and are taken care of from the moment you arrive on your day of departure. The entire complex is quiet, private and clean throughout. Always go for the superior rooms if you can as the TV is better and you get the perfect air conditioning which (us Brits) need compared to at home. The food and drinks are excellent as is the whole complex. Let me know via PM if you have any questions or want a more detailed review on it all. I highly recommend Rainbow Golf and you will have a great time every time. It’s a big family in a big but friendly and intimate space. Many thanks to Antonio and your lovely staff for always making our holiday. Love of Joseph and Luke x.

Nice, relaxing, friendly people. The beach and nightlife are a bit of a walk, but taxis are inexpensive. The rooms are clean and tidy and a good bed with decent air conditioning. Kitchen very useful for two people and a nice little diner if feeling lazy. Lovely pool and sun area although the hot tub needs some work to restore its usefulness. We’ll be back again (soon, hopefully)

Excellent and very relaxed place, been here 2 times now probably won’t go anywhere else when visiting Gran Canaria. And you get to be naked in the sun, what more could you want.

Mira Tio, if you consider coming to enjoy Maspalomas this gay hotel is a good option. As you will see, it has its advantages: Each room is an apartment with a room, a living room with a small cooking area, a bathroom and a large terrace where you can enjoy the uninterrupted sun of this paradise. It also has a swimming pool, which is warm in winter, a sauna and a jacuzzi. Of course, feel free to take off your bathing suit. Although the apartment was a bit old, the decor of the whole is taken care of and everything is very cool. The staff are nice and friendly and willing to help you with whatever you need. The people that are frequent are usually couples and you will meet them all before or after at the pool. Maybe something interesting even comes… 😉

Good! Very easy place! Friendly staff! The apartment s kitchen is poorly equipped if you want to cook more than microwave food. Eated pool is closed for at least one week. The jacuzzi is out of service for at least one week. Sauna is not working. Not worth the money you pay. Good, but not repeatable.

Top four places to go snorkelling in Gran Canaria for free
Do Leagues Ahead Diving offer snorkelling in Gran Canaria?
Yes! Leagues Ahead Diving offer a fantastic snorkelling excursion which is available for everyone. The fun-filled snorkelling excursion includes a fully qualified PADI instructor guide, the best snorkelling equipment available on the market and complimentary hotel transfers. See our snorkelling excursions here!
What If I just want to grab a mask and snorkel and go by myself?
Go for it! We understand that if you love water as much as we do, just grabbing a snorkel and hitting the water is the best therapy out there. No stress, little or no expense, and a glimpse Into the hidden underwater world that enthralls so many.
Gran Canaria is home to beautiful clear, warm and sub-tropical water. Combined with the range of African, Atlantic and Mediterranean fish, snorkelling in Gran Canaria is guaranteed to delight the many. Because of this, we sat down to compile a list of the best snorkelling sites on Gran Canaria as we believe everyone needs to see what this Island has to offer!
Is it safe for me snorkel on my own in Gran Canaria?
Snorkelling is a safe sport. However you must snorkel responsibly and choose not to snorkel in places beyond your ability and confidence! Some things to be aware of when going snorkelling here in Gran Canaria are:
Monitor the water conditions before entering, do not snorkel off rocky shores and avoid any swell.
Its recommended to tow a dive buoy if you venture outside of designated swimming areas as snorkelers can be hard to identify.
make sure to stay clear of pedalos, jet skis and boat lanes.
If you have a wetsuit or a shortie we recommend you wear it.
And finally, always remember to respect the water and what lies beneath it.
Can I take my child Snorkelling in Gran Canaria?
Absolutely! Snorkelling is great exercise and a great way to tear your children away from their mobile phones. Pick a snorkelling location that is calm and sheltered where they are able to stand up. I would recommend providing your child with a wetsuit or a shortie, this will keep your child buoyant, protect their skin from harmful UV rays and ensure they do not get cold whilst in the water. Flotation devices such as a waist belt are also a fantastic idea to make the snorkelling in Gran Canaria, safe, fun and relaxed.
Now that’s over and done with, what are you waiting for, go and grab your snorkelling gear, we will see you snorkelling in Gran Canaria soon!

Amadores Beach – The lover’s beach:
What is so special about Amadores?
Everything! We take our Discover Scuba Divers to Amadores for a reason you know! Amadores offers one of the calmest and most relaxing entries to the water. Amadores Bay is perfect for the whole family as this 800-meter wide beach is home to some fantastic and reasonably priced bars, shops and restaurants! It is the perfect place to relax after a long session of snorkelling.
In addition, the abundance of parking spaces ensure that the beach is easily accessible for everyone. However, make sure you get there early in the morning to guarantee a car parking space, it isn’t called the lover’s beach for nothing. Everyone loves it!
I’m at Amadores but where do I go snorkelling and what will I see?
Enter the water at the left side of the beach, and follow the artificial rock formation on the left. Behind the pedalos is the perfect place to wait and observe the abundance of Parrotfish, Damselfish, Wrasse, and Bream that inhabit the waters below (don’t forget your buoy.) If you observe closely enough you may be able to spot an Octopus hiding in the rocks beneath you!
Where’s the best place for a refreshment afterwards?
For an after snorkelling refreshment I can highly recommend The Palm Beach restaurant. If you are looking for a refreshing drink, accommodating staff and a breathtaking Atlantic Ocean view, then the Palm Beach restaurant has you covered!
Tufia – A quiet Spanish town:
Why is snorkelling in Tufia so special?
The designated free car parking area makes this site ideal for a fun family filled day. A short walk past the quaint whitewashed houses brings you to the black volcanic sandy beach.
What’s the best snorkelling route and what will I see?
Once in the water swim to the right side of the beach as hidden in the volcanic rock formation below will be the the eco-system that Gran Canaria is famous for. Flatfish, Lizard Fish, and Sting Rays are easy to find if you’re not too busy having fun! We recommend snorkelling on the right side of the beach as the marine life is more varied and there isn’t a current like you would expect to find if you swim further out on the left side.
Be careful to check the water is calm before entering. If the conditions are wavy the entry will not be as effortless as it could be and remember the exit is always harder than the entry.
Where can I relax after I finish snorkelling?
After an exhilarating snorkelling trip, there is a hidden bar in a local residents house on the left side directly next to the beach. Here you can find fresh paella and drinks for a reasonable price in one of the most picturesque settings, that not many tourists know about! (Shh! don’t tell the others, it’s a secret.)
Puerto De Mogan:
Why is Puerto de Mogan one of the best spots to go snorkelling in Gran Canaria?
If you want a relaxing day out on the beach, Puerto de Mogan is the place to be! Parking and a newly built bus stop once again make it extremely easy to get to, don’t say I’m not considerate! Now don’t be deceived by entering the water from the beach, walk to the left far end of the parade, past all the restaurants and bars, and don’t be distracted by these alluring places to eat and drink, the real prize is a few steps away from the pebble beach.
Where do I enter the water and what marine life will I see?
You can walk or jump into the water off the pebble beach, just make sure you are careful about the tide. Once you are in the water you will be greeted by crystal clear water and the exciting prospect of caves to snorkel in. You will be welcomed by Boxfish, Parrot fish, Damselfish, Cuttlefish and much more. Carry on swimming left and there is a perfect rock to sunbathe on and catch your breath after being bombarded by Gran Canaria’s underwater wonders.
Risco Verde:
Why should I choose to snorkel in Risco Verde?
This snorkelling location is a slightly longer distance from most tourist towns, located on the East coast of Gran Canaria, but believe me, it is worth the effort. An extremely popular destination for divers and water enthusiasts alike, it is easy to see why. The visibility here averages 10 meters in winter and is often 20-30 meters in the summer months.
Where should I enter the water and what will I see?
I suggest swimming to the left side of the beach, but be careful of the Sea Urchins. Always remember to look where you are swimming or walking. Inhibiting the water below are Barracuda, Eagle-rays, my favorite smiley Parrot Fish, Lizardfish, and Wreck fish.
Where to warm up after your Snorkelling in Risco Verde?
Once you have finished snorkelling a lovely coffee afterward in one of the many charming coffee shops in Arinaga is the place to be, however directly on the left side of the beach is a charming restaurant which is bound to have your favorite Spanish cuisine, including the best Mojo potatoes on the island! It is very popular so good luck getting a seat! This is the perfect opportunity to warm up and discuss the marine life you have just seen.
Should I go Snorkelling or Scuba Diving?
The choice is completely yours, but here are some things to take into consideration when choosing whether to go snorkeling or scuba diving in Gran Canaria!
Snorkelling:
Easier to master.
No heavy equipment is necessary.
You do not need to be under the direct supervision of an instructor.
Snorkelling equipment is affordable and easy to take traveling.
Scuba Diving:
You have the chance to get closer to beautiful marine life.
You have a greater chance of spotting big marine life such as Angel Sharks and Sting Rays!
You will experience the feeling of being weightless – like you are flying through the water.
Conquer your Fears and try something new!
Stay safe, respect the environment and if you see us blowing bubbles beneath you while snorkelling in Gran Canaria, remember to say hello!

Gran Canaria – Spain, Canary Islands, photos, holidays in Gran Canaria
Updated: July 18, 2019
on the map
Gran Canaria (Spanish: Gran Canaria) is one of the major Canary Islands. The area is 1560.1 km², the population is about 900,000 people. The capital is Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
The island is of volcanic origin, which means that mountains and hills are adjacent to valleys and beaches with healing black sand.
Unlike its neighbor Tenerife, Gran Canaria has a less developed infrastructure, not so much entertainment and attractions. Accordingly, more natural and untouched areas, more calm. And there are sand dunes near Maspalomas beach – this is the main highlight of the island.
The coastline is more than 200 km (the total length of the beaches is 60 km), so there are a huge number of different beaches: some with black volcanic sand, some with white sand brought from the Sahara, there are also pebble coasts.

A few facts
The official language is Spanish.
Currency – Euro.
Schengen visa and insurance required to visit.
Time zone – UTC+00:00 (winter) and UTC+1 (summer). It differs by 2 hours from Moscow in summer (when it is 12 o’clock in Moscow, 10 am in the Canary Islands) and by 3 hours in winter. Daylight saving time is the last Sunday in March at 1 am, back is the last Sunday in October at 1 am.
Brief history
Historically, the island was inhabited by the Canarian tribe, who settled it before our era. From century to century, their way of life remained unchanged and primitive – they did not know the wheel and iron tools.
In the Middle Ages, this heavenly place was colonized by the Spaniards. The conquest began in 1402 and lasted for almost a hundred years, until 1483, when Pedro de Vega, together with Fernando Guanartemé, forced the islanders to surrender to the Crown of Castile. The capital was proclaimed the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, which it is to this day. A from 19For 27 years, it is also the second capital of all the Canary Islands.
Tourism has now become the main source of income. 2.2 million people visit the island every year. The most popular is the southern part.
Why go to Gran Canaria
First of all, Gran Canaria should go to lovers of beach holidays, moreover, calm and unhurried. There are many beaches for every taste, and there are not as many vacationers as in Tenerife.
The island has a very comfortable climate in summer, not as hot as in the Mediterranean resorts. And vice versa, in winter it is warm here in spring and when it rains and low temperatures in Europe, you can still relax in Gran Canaria at a comfortable +20 degrees (this is both daytime air temperature and water temperature). In the south, in any of the seasons, there is almost no rain, the sun shines 350 days a year.
It is also good for families. There are many comfortable hotels with shallow pools and playgrounds. Also with children you can go to the amusement park “Holiday World” or to the water parks Ocean Park and Aqualand.
The nightlife here is not as developed as in Tenerife, but it is still there. A large cluster of discos and bars in the entertainment center Kasbah, which is located in the resort of Playa del Inglés. But still, there is not much entertainment, and if you are an avid party-goer, then you will be bored.
Since there are many wild beaches on the island, nudists have chosen them. Moreover, some do not hesitate to sunbathe “in what mother gave birth” even on popular and crowded beaches.
And for some reason, Gran Canaria enjoys an increased interest among gay people. There are many more of them than in Tenerife.
Those who like to go sightseeing and go on excursions on vacation will be disappointed – there are not so many of them here, while they are mostly natural – sand dunes, beautiful mountain landscapes.
The island is not yet so popular with Russian tourists, so there are quite a few of them here. For some this is a plus, for others a minus.
In general, the infrastructure on the island is well developed: there are large shops, water sports, good conditions for windsurfing, golf courses, go-carting, a casino, many roads are laid, public transport runs. Those. it’s not some wild place.

There are hotels of different categories in Gran Canaria: 2, 3, 4, 5 stars. Some are located on the first line, others at some distance from the coast. Basically, these are not bungalows, but rooms in multi-storey buildings.

Public transport in Gran Canaria – Inostranno.ru
resorts in its south. Public transport in Gran Canaria is represented by intercity buses (Spanish: Guagua) and is as well developed as transport in Tenerife. Gran Canaria is home to almost half of the entire population of the Canary archipelago, which dictates the need for modern and well-functioning public transport. Buses connect the island’s capital Las Palmas and the airport in the north with resorts in the sunny south.
City buses in Las Palmas
Most likely, you will not need buses to move around the city of Las Palmas: tourists prefer to settle in the very center of the city or in the Playa de las Canteras area. For example, in a hotel on the first line of the Hotel Concorde or in the NH Imperial Playa hotel. However, if you still need to use public transport in Las Palmas, the official public transport website of Las Palmas Guaguas.com will come to your rescue. On the site you can get directions, see ticket sales points and public transport schedules.
For example, if you need to travel from Playa de las Canteras (stop Tomas Miller) to the Columbus Museum (stop Plaza de las ranas), then you need bus number 12. routes – urban and suburban, as well as 3 night routes – L1, L2, L3. A detailed map of all bus routes in the city can be found below. The fare on the bus is 1.4 Euros for 1 trip. In order to save money, you can also buy a contactless travel card, with which 2 trips will cost 2.4 Euros, and 10 trips – 8.5 Euros. Tickets can be bought from the driver, and travel cards can only be bought at sales offices (in Santa Catalina Park, Avda. Rafael Cabrera, Plaza de la Constitución, 5 bajo, Sor Simona, 44).
A detailed map of bus routes in Las Palmas and its suburbs is shown below.
Intercity buses from Las Palmas to the resorts of the south
Intercity buses leave from two bus stations in Las Palmas: from Santa Catalina bus station (address: Santa Catalina Park), located next to the port, and San Telmo bus station (address: Avda. Rafael Cabrera) near the Columbus Museum. Buses from Las Palmas Airport also arrive at these bus stations. Ticket offices at the San Telmo bus station are open on weekdays from 07:00 to 20:00, on weekends from 08:00 to 13:00.
Timetables and routes for intercity buses from Las Palmas are conveniently viewed on the Globalsu.net website. Buses run approximately from 06:00 to 20:00, night intercity buses no . The buses are very comfortable and air-conditioned. The capital of the island with the southern resorts is connected by the following routes:
Bus number 1: Las Palmas de Gran Canaria – Puerto de Mogan
Bus number 5: Las Palmas de Gran Canaria – Lighthouse in Maspalomas
Bus number 91: Las Palmas de Gran Canaria – Puerto de Mogan (via Gran Canaria Airport)
There are also bus routes running between the southern resorts without stopping at the capital of the island:
Route number 32: Puerto de Mogan – Playa del Inglés
Route No. 33: Playa del Inglés – Puerto Rico – Puerto de Mogan
Route No. 39: Playa del Inglés – Playa de Amadores
Line 45: Baia Feliz – Palmitos Park
Route 70: Palmitos Park – Puerto Rico
Tickets for intercity buses are bought from the driver. The ticket price depends on the number of kilometers you drive. For example, the fare on the segment Gran Canaria Airport – Faro de Maspalomas will be 4.05 Euro per person.
Taxi in Gran Canaria
The official taxis in Gran Canaria are white Mercedes equipped with counters. Tariffs are regulated at the state level. Always ask the driver for a receipt after taking a taxi (un recibo in Spanish). The check will come in handy if you forget something in the taxi.
Many vacationers, who for some reason do not want to rent a car and drive around the island with a tour, order a driver with a car for the whole day. This pleasure costs about 200 Euro per day.
If you don’t want to use local taxis and you need to leave at a certain time, for example to the airport, then I advise you to order a taxi from a reliable Russian company on the Internet. Tourists love this type of transfer. no need to wait for the car and worry about whether you will have time to get to the airport.
How to get from one Canary Island to another?
Option No. 1. Plane from Gran Canaria
The Canary Islands are connected by regular flights thanks to Binter and CanaryFly. Flights between islands are often cheaper than ferries, so I recommend paying attention to those who are not afraid of turboprops. The approximate prices for flights can be found in the table below. Please note that CanaryFly flights between the islands of the archipelago arrive at Tenerife North Airport, and not at Tenerife South. Flights are best booked in advance to catch the best price.

Option number 2. Ferry from the island of Gran Canaria
The most important ports of the island: Puerto de la Luz (in Las Palmas), Arginengin, Arinaga. Passenger traffic uses the ports of Puerto de la Luz and Purto de las Nieves in the municipality of Agaete in Las Palmas.
The most popular sea carriers between the Canary Islands are Fred Olsen Express, Naviera Armas and Transmediterranea. On ferries you can travel with a car. Please note when purchasing tickets on the website that you do not have the “Residente en Canarias” (Resident of the Canary Islands) option selected. Resident tickets are sold at a 75% discount off the regular price, and if you mistakenly purchase such a ticket for yourself, it will naturally be invalid. Tickets are sold both online and at the box office in the port of Puerto de la Luz.

Gran Canaria car rental
Gran Canaria has roads that wrap around the entire island and lead into the mountainous areas in the center of the island. The first roads appeared on the island at the end of the 20th century around its capital, Las Palmas. Expressways of the island: GC1, GC2 and GC3. In addition to them, there are highways with a dividing strip GC4 and GC5. The current cost of a liter of gasoline is 1.22 Euro. The maximum speed on the highway is 120 km / h, in settlements – 60 km / h.
Renting a car gives you a certain degree of freedom: you can drive without a tour to the most remote corners of the island of Gran Canaria: the Tamadaba National Park in the north of the island, authentic villages with the indigenous inhabitants of the island of Arucas, Firgas, Teror, Mount Roque Nublo, Pico de volcano Las Nieves. The island of Gran Canaria is divided by a volcano into 2 climatic zones; it is not for nothing that it is called a continent in miniature. To get a complete picture of the island, it is better to come here for a vacation for 7-10 days and travel around the island without haste.
The roads in Gran Canaria are winding and serpentine, so only experienced drivers can drive on them. The roads on the island are quite narrow and have many sharp turns. Locals advise turning off the music while driving in order to hear the signal of an approaching car in time (in blind corners, cars honk to let you know about themselves). It is strictly forbidden to drink and drive here – tourists are often checked by the police, and for some glass of wine you can be issued a huge fine!
You can rent a car right after your arrival at the airport, or at one of the island’s resorts. We order cars at the best prices on the Rentalcars website.

most visited islands of the Canary archipelago.
Having a rounded shape, it is located west of the southern coast of Morocco and is surrounded on all sides by the Atlantic Ocean. The island looks like a miniature continent due to the enormous number of picturesque landscapes, the diversity of flora and fauna, and the variety of climatic zones. Like each of the Canary Islands, it owes its birth to the volcanic activity of the ocean floor.
A few words about the climate
Gran Canaria, like Tenerife and many other objects of the magnificent seven, is called by many the island of eternal spring. And for good reason: the local climate pleases all year round, because in winter the air temperature is around 22°C, and in summer – about 27°C. Water warms up to 20°C in winter, and often reaches 25°C in summer. This place has 350 sunny days a year. August is considered the hottest period, but the high temperature does not feel like hellish hell – it saves the ocean.
Like a knife, the island is divided by a mountain range into northern and southern climatic zones. In the northern part, a more humid and cool climate prevails – this is the so-called trade wind area. It is not very sunny here, but there is a lot of greenery. Arid and warmer climate prevails in the south of the island. This division also affected the distribution of the tourist complexes of the island. All of them, of course, are in the south.
Focus on the essentials
The island’s beaches are no doubt ready to welcome guests from all over the world. Regardless of the time of the year and the conjuncture of the tourism business;
holidays in Gran Canaria are unhurried and measured. However, there are activities for fans of extreme entertainment. And those excursions that will be offered to you will not take much time and effort, so necessary for lying on the warm sand caressing the body;
diversity is the word that best describes this island in the Canary archipelago. The unique relief allows you to visit the sea coast in a short time, in a valley overgrown with dense greenery, walk through the subtropical forest. And if the eye suddenly gets tired of the beauties of southern nature – welcome to the mountains, where you will find the crunch of fresh snow and the silence of mountain peaks
More than one and a half thousand species of subtropical and tropical plants grow in Gran Canaria, some of which (about a hundred) are unique. For example, the Canarian bell is one of the symbols of the archipelago.
There are no poisonous insects, scorpions and snakes on the island, as well as animals that can cause significant damage to human health. Mosquitoes are rare here.
The island of Gran Canaria has the status of a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, and therefore some of its parts are closed to the public, there are more than three dozen protected areas in total.
How to get there
If you decide to visit the “island of eternal spring”, you need to take into account that this will be associated with some difficulties. The airport is located on the east coast, two dozen kilometers from the capital of the island. You can fly here from almost all major European cities – Berlin, Madrid, London, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Nuremberg, etc. There is currently only one direct flight from Russia to the Canary Islands: Moscow – Tenerife. And you can get directly to Gran Canaria using local flights or by ferry. The price of the flight is about €100 for a round trip ticket. It is convenient to travel around the island by driving or by bus: the airport, all resorts and tourist centers are connected by a motorway.
Thanks to the developed ferry lines from Gran Canaria, it is easy to get to the other Canary Islands. There are regular and express ferries, tickets for which are much more expensive, but the journey will take much less time. The port in Las Palmas is the main one on the island.
Beaches
Undoubtedly, one of the main values of the island of Gran Canaria, which always attracts tourists, is the amazing beaches, with a total length of about sixty kilometers. Some of the beaches are reminiscent of the endless expanses of the desert. Others are cozy nests surrounded by cliffs rising into the sea.
The most remarkable beach – it is called Gigi – is located in the western part of the island. Golden-yellow, finely sandy, it curved for hundreds, and tens of meters wide. The water here is turquoise and crystal clear.
Windsurfing
Gran Canaria attracts numerous windsurfers from all over the world. Due to the geographical location and stable trade winds, both experienced windsurfers and beginners can “ride the wind” here. For this, numerous schools operate, and the infrastructure for practicing this sport is well developed.
Diving and fishing
Due to its volcanic origin, there are many wonderful places for diving in the waters of the island: breathtaking cliffs, impressive rocks, wrecks, as well as an indescribably diverse world of underwater inhabitants – sea breams, barracudas, moray eels and others . Due to the purity and transparency of the water, visibility reaches three tens of meters.
Fishing lovers will not be bored here either. In Gran Canaria, coastal fishing is especially popular, but there is an opportunity to try your luck in deep water. For those who decided to try themselves in this fishery for the first time, catching fish artificially grown in closed reservoirs is provided.
Before fishing, you need to find out in advance whether it is allowed to leave the catch at the end. Otherwise, problems may arise, because a license is required for recreational fishing in Gran Canaria.
Climbing
Climbing in Gran Canaria is available throughout the year and the number of routes is steadily increasing. In the center of the island is the highest peak – Pico de las Nieves – it is an extinct volcano with a height of about two thousand meters. From here you have a picturesque view of the Roque Bentayga rock and the Roque Nublo mountain. Roque Nublo is considered one of the symbols of Gran Canaria.
As in any type of activity associated with a risk to life and health, there are certain regulatory requirements – namely, insurance and a license are required. Regarding the purchase of these services, it is better to contact the Gran Canaria Mountaineering Federation.
Shopping
Between trips to the beach and sightseeing, it’s time to check out the local shops. The Canary Islands have a special status within the European Union, that is, they are considered outside the European VAT area. Therefore, some goods there are cheaper than in other countries of the European Union. However, when exported outside the island, they will be taxed. Excluding 1 liter of spirits, 2 liters of wine, 200 cigarettes or 50 cigars.
…and more
If all of the above is not enough, the island offers day trips, sea and helicopter trips, skydiving, numerous golf clubs, camel safaris and much more. Everything is possible here for money, or almost everything.
TOP 5 tourist sites
Maspalomas Dunes is a piece of desert, located on the ocean, a park of over four hundred hectares of unique beauty, divided into two zones that are absolutely different from each other: sand dunes that are in constant motion and a lagoon La Charca with sea water separated from the ocean by a narrow strip of land.
Crocodile Park. The easiest way to get there is by bus from Playa del Inglés. More than three hundred crocodiles are comfortably housed in the park. Along with toothy reptiles, iguanas, pythons, lizards, monkeys, tigers and parrots coexist here.
Maspalomas Aquatic Park is the largest water entertainment center in Gran Canaria: a wide range of attractions makes it the best place for family holidays. It is open all year round and only closes for a few days. The water park has cafes, restaurants, small shops.
Palmitos Park is an oasis, with a colorful variety of exotic butterflies, more than a thousand species of plants and the same number of birds, as well as animals not found in other areas of the island, such as monkeys and kangaroos.
Caldera de Bandama is a huge crater-like formation with a diameter of about a thousand meters and a depth of over two hundred. Near the crater there is an observation deck, which offers a view of the central part and the capital of the island.
Asbolas Cave is the world’s second oldest volcanic cave, over fourteen million years old. In its bowels, the remains of ancient rodents and giant lizards that once inhabited Gran Canaria were discovered.
Attractions of the island
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is the capital, where more than a third of the island’s population lives. Noisy and crowded, it is the center of nightlife. Of the sights, we note:
Vegeta quarter with the Cathedral of Santa Ana with a half-century history;
Casa de Colon, which means “House of Columbus”. According to legend, Columbus stayed here during his travels, but in reality the building was the residence of the first governors of the island;
Museum of the Canary Islands, highlights archeology and pre-Hispanic culture;
Museum of Science and Technology with an impressive collection of aircraft models;
Museum of Nestor, works of the famous artist Nestor, a native of Gran Canaria, are exhibited here
The first mention of the island took place about two thousand years ago. The ancient Canarians – “Guanches” – were farmers who migrated from the African continent. Traces of their culture have survived to this day: natural or carved caves in tuff and rock paintings.
Major cities in Gran Canaria
In addition to the capital city, there are a number of other cities, each of which can be a real discovery for curious travelers.
City
Required note
Telde
It is the old capital of the Guanches. Famous for the Basilica of St. John the Baptist, located on the central square of the city. Also, tourists are attracted by the Cuarto Puertas cave complex south of the city, which is the site of ancient burials
Arucas
Located in the north of the island, famous for its neo-gothic cathedral with the tallest tower in Gran Canaria, as well as – important for vacationers – the largest rum distillery
Playa del Inglés
The name is translated as “the beach of the English”, it has some specificity for visiting. The fact is that this three-kilometer beach is a favorite vacation spot for sexual minorities. In addition, most of the coast is considered nudist beaches. But if this neighborhood does not scare you, then here at your service is the huge water park Maspalomas – an ideal place for a family holiday
Agaete
Located in the north-west of the island, it is interesting for the annual Fiesta de la Rama, which has its origins in the ancient rituals of the Guanches. During the celebration, the inhabitants of the city march with green branches in their hands to the sea, where they beat them on the surface of the water to make it rain – sometimes it turns out
Galdar
Not far from Agaete, the “city of kings”, famous for the archaeological museum and the Cueva Pintada park, as well as the house-museum of Antonio Padron with a collection of paintings by this famous expressionist artist
Teror
Despite such an ominous name for the ears of a European, it is a great place to relax with your family. It is replete with well-maintained beaches, and there is also a small water park. Ideal for those who like to swim with a mask and fins
Arkhinekhin
A small fishing town, famous for its market, the largest on the island, as well as a first-class beach
San Agustin
Quiet, calm town, it is suitable for a leisurely holiday on the beach sand. The color of the sand here is unusual: the beach consists of a mixture of light and volcanic sand and has a gray tint. In addition, the beach of San Agustin is considered one of the most well-groomed
Puerto Rico
Translated as “Rich Port”, focused on families with children. It is a center of water entertainment – here lovers of sailing, surfing, diving and so on can find an occupation of interest. After all, Puerto Rico has one of the best beaches on the island – in the shape of a crescent with imported golden sand and numerous outdoor pools
Puerto de Mogan
The town, like some European cities, is half submerged in water.

Don’t forget the code to your parking lot or apartment building.
Never hang up until you are invited to do so.
If you have existing medical problems or regularly take prescription drugs, make sure you at least know how to say their names in Spanish to the operator.
If you have children, cite their ages and how much they weigh (in kilograms) in case you need to call an anti-poison centre or to administer medication.
In a situation where you’re dealing with intoxications, make sure to inform them of what was taken and, if possible, give them the rest of what was consumed.

This list of emergency phone numbers for Spain that you’re about to read and your local Páginas Amarillas (Spanish telephone directory) should do wonders to help you get to fixing whatever it is that comes your way.
Keep in mind that some Spanish emergency services have English-speaking staff, but others don’t.

However, in an emergency that may not always be an option, so you may want to memorize these Spanish phrases, just in case:
Quiero hacer una denuncia./Quiero denunciar un crimen.=I’d like to report a crime. Necesito una ambulancia./Necesito que me envíen una ambulancia.=I need you to send me an ambulance. Mi casa está ardiendo.=My house is burning down. Vivo en…=I live at…

Reporting a Crime in Spain
Tel: 902 102 112
If you’ve been the victim of any crime, accident or assault, you need to report it to the Spanish police by making a denuncia.
Crimes can be reported in either English or Spanish in different ways:
In person at the nearest police station (comisaría de policía). You may have to wait in line a while to do this though.
Online at http://www.policia. es.
By phone at 902 102 112.
However, major or violent crimes should always be reported in person.
Calling the Police in Spain (Policía)
National Police (Policía Nacional) tel: 091 Local Police (policía local) tel: 092 Civil Guard (Guardia Civil) tel: 062
The Spanish police are there when you need them. A Madrid informant tells us that exactly fourteen minutes from the time he called the police, there were four agents at his door.
And if you see the police on the street, do you know how to tell them apart? The Guardia Civil generally wear green and sometimes their characteristic black tricorn hat, while the Policía Nacional generally wear navy blue. Local police uniforms vary from province to province, from light blue in Madrid to the red of the Ertzaintza in the Basque Country.
To report a crime (make a denuncia), call 902 102 112.
Major or violent crimes should always be reported in person.
Calling the Fire Department in Spain (Bomberos)
In case of fire, call 112, 080, or 085. You can rest assured that fire service in Spain is fast and efficient. Madrid’s fire service promises to arrive at the scene of a fire in an urban zone in less than 10 minutes from the time they receive the call.
Calling an Ambulance in Spain (Ambulancia)

A Quick Directory of Spanish Emergency Numbers
Emergency services: They’re the heroes we hope we’re never going to have to call, but it’s reassuring to know that they’re always there! Whether you’re living in Spain or just visiting the country for a short holiday, crimes, accidents, and emergencies can happen anywhere you are in the world. So it makes sense to plan ahead and be prepared, by knowing the right numbers to call if you ever need emergency help or support.
With that in mind, here is our quick directory of the most important emergency numbers in Spain. Write them in your diary, bookmark this page on your phone, or print them out and stick them on your fridge! It’s important to note that whilst some Spanish emergency service operators will speak English, many will not. It may be handy to learn a few key phrases you can use over the phone in case of an emergency (such as your address and the different, most common types of emergency) and we would also recommend that you find a trusted Spanish or Spanish speaking friend who could help you in the case of an emergency.
The Important Emergency Numbers to Call
If you have a key emergency and require the police, fire brigade, or an ambulance then the number to call, no matter where you are in Spain, is 112. You don’t need to dial an area code, and the operator should be able to speak a range of different languages, including English. If you have a disability that makes speaking on the phone difficult then you can also send an SMS text message or a fax to the number 112 and you will also get help and support when you need it.
Knowing What to Say
So, you’ve reached the emergency services that you need, but what should you say? Whilst you should find that the operative on the end of the phone is able to speak English, if they are unable to them you may find that the following phrases come in handy:
Pharmacy: farmacia
Doctor: médico
Serious illness: enfermedad grave
I’d like to report a crime: Quiero hacer una denuncia. /Quiero denunciar un crimen.
I need you to send me an ambulance: Necesito una ambulancia./Necesito que me envíen una ambulancia.
My house is burning down: Mi casa está quemandose.
I live at…: Vivo en…
Help! (emergency): socorro
Accident: accidente
Emergency services: servicios de urgencia
Other Numbers You Should Know
Of course, unfortunately, there are far more than just three types of emergencies you can experience, no matter where in the world you are living. If you find that you need assistance for any reason during your time in Spain, then it’s likely that you will find the number you need in the comprehensive list below:
Local Police
Whilst 112 is the right number if you need emergency assistance, if you need to contact the local police for a non-emergency then the right number to call is 092. The local police on this number will be able to help you with traffic issues, lost properties, minor thefts, and other minor neighbourhood issues.
Civil Guard
You might not have heard of the Civil Guard, but they are a police force that falls under the military umbrella and operates mostly in rural areas. They are responsible for drug crimes, robberies, murders, and car accidents that lead to fatalities. You can contact the Civil Guard on 062.
National Police
The National Police, as the name suggests, deal with issues that affect Spanish residents on a national level. These include terrorism, national security, and high level crime. There are a myriad of ways you can contact the National Police, including calling 091 or visiting www.policia.es and contact the appropriate department online. You can also find them on Twitter @policia
Maritime Sea Rescue
If you’re spending your time lounging on the beach or paddling in the ocean on the Costa del Sol then it may be helpful to know the contact details for the Maritime Sea Rescue. The best number to call is 900 202 202
The Red Cross
The Red Cross can help you with medical emergencies, and you can also contact them if you wish to donate blood. Their 24/7 helpline number is 900 100 333, whilst their direct dial number for blood donors is 900 506 819.
Tourist Helpline
If you’re a tourist in Spain and want to report a crime then the best number to call is 902 102 112. It is likely that you will then need to follow up this call with a visit to your local police station, in order to secure a valid crime number.
Road Traffic and Accidents
Want to make sure your journey isn’t going to be delayed by a traffic jam or road traffic accident? Call 011.
Crime Victim Support Service
Have you been a victim of crime? It is something that can be hard to forget, and can often have a long term effect on mental and physical health. If you have been a victim of crime and feel you need extra support then you can call 900 150 909
Support for Women
If you have been a victim of domestic abuse or domestic violence then you can call 900 100 009. For any other support for women there is a 24 hour helpline available at 900 580 888

Calling The Emergency Services When In Spain
Expat TipsPublished: 07 September 2018 12:22 CETUpdated: 22 June 2022 12:22 CET
Living in Spain is fantastic. Most of the people who decide to relocate with the idea of spending their retirement years in the warm Mediterranean sun are more than happy with their life choice. You must, however, plan carefully, especially when it comes down to things like healthcare.
It doesn’t matter what age you are, or what station you may be in, in life. You may be a retired couple, or a young family with children to support; but when it comes down to needing to call for the emergency services in Spain – be it the police, an ambulance or a fire engine, you need to know what to do and the emergency telephone numbers to call.
I’m surprised at just how many expats I hear asking, “What is the emergency number in Spain?“. Well read on and let’s find out the most important ones to remember.
In the UK it’s easy. It’s ingrained into each and every one of us from an early age. All you need to do is to pick up the phone, dial 999, and explain your situation, and what it is you need; all in plain simple English and its job done. But what about when you living abroad, somewhere like Spain? What must you do here, and what are your chances of being understood? Well, that’s exactly why we’re publishing this brief article. To explain what numbers you need to call for which services, and to tell you how to prepare to put your emergency into words that will be understood by the person on the other end of the phone.
First of all, you mustn’t expect the person that answers your emergency call to speak English. We Brits do have a bit of a problem when it comes down to learning foreign languages. Because English is so widely spoken, we tend to expect everyone we come across to understand it. A lot of people do of course, but when it comes to foreign nationals in their own country, (like Spain for example), the majority of them don’t speak or understand it.
If you put the boot on the other foot for a moment, you wouldn’t expect an English telephone operator in the UK to understand Spanish, German, or Italian for example, would you? So you need to be prepared.
Whatever you do, you mustn’t get too frustrated or excited if the person on the other end of the line does not speak English. Simply do your best to remain calm, and talk quietly and slowly, keeping your words as simple as possible. You’ll find that many words are similar, like doctor, or hospital. Yes, they’re spoken in a different accent with stresses in different places and sometimes missing letters (for example the Spanish don’t pronounce the letter “H” it’s usually silent). But there may be enough similarities with some words, and if you speak clearly and slowly, eventually you’ll be able to make the other person understand you. Better still, learn some phrases, or copy them down from a phrasebook, and keep them handy, near the phone. Of course, if you know a Spanish speaker who can help – better still!
So much for the language aspect; now let’s turn our attention to the actual numbers to call.
Emergency Service Telephone Numbers In Spain
Ambulance (ambulancia in Spanish) – 112 (from anywhere in Spain – no area code needed)
Police (policia in Spanish) – 112 (from anywhere in Spain – no area code needed)

To report a robbery an assault, break-in or other crime – 902 102 112
The British Consulate (Madrid) – 917 146 300
National Police (Policía Nacional) – 091
Local Police (Policía Local) – 092
Civil Guard (Guardia Civil) – 062

It might also be a good idea to bookmark and share this page on social media with your friends and family as well to make sure they are aware of these numbers. Also, keep a note of the numbers in your handbag or wallet as well as next to the phone – just in case you might encounter an emergency situation when you’re out and about. You never know – it always pays to be prepared.
For any non-emergency enquiries, you may want to try Twitter! The Spanish police have now adopted the social media platform and regularly post important information. If you have a question, why not send them a tweet @policia

Ambulance in Spain. Spain in Russian
How is ambulance organized in Spain? What is the phone number for an ambulance? How much does it cost to call an ambulance for foreigners? These and many other questions related to obtaining emergency medical care are of concern to everyone who is going to Spain both on vacation and for permanent residence. Spain is one of the leading countries in terms of the development of the healthcare system. This applies to both the public and private sectors. The indisputable advantage of private medicine is the ability to choose a doctor, the almost complete absence of queues and waiting lists. Emergency departments in Spain are organized both at the public and private levels.
History of modern ambulance in Spain
Ambulance in Spain in its present form appeared more than 20 years ago. In the 1980s, the sad statistics of deaths from heart attacks and car accidents led to the decision to organize specialized emergency departments in a number of government services: fire, emergency, etc. The work was carried out with the direct participation of the Red Cross.
In 1984, a national plan for the development of emergency medical care in Spain was adopted, which was the beginning of the creation of a modern ambulance system in the country.
In 1988, a single number of the Rescue Service 061 was introduced, which in 1997 was replaced by a common number for all of Europe 112 (the number 061 is still used in some provinces of Spain). Royal Decree 103/2006 legislated the concept of “ambulance” and the list of services provided by it in Spain.
Ambulance in Spain for foreigners
In 2012, the Spanish public health system underwent significant changes. Previously, all residents of Spain had the right to receive medical care. Now only foreigners who legally reside in Spain and are registered in the social insurance system can apply for free medical care in Spain. In other words, all illegal immigrants, as well as foreigners who live in Spain without employment, were left behind (a number of regions of Spain continue to provide free medical care to everyone). As for the ambulance, then, as before, emergency care in Spain is provided to all those in need.
Call an ambulance at home
In Spain you can call an ambulance at home. If you have a health card (Tarjeta Sanitaria Individual), you will find the emergency room number of the medical center where you are registered on the back of the card.
If in a stressful situation you cannot find your card or you do not have it, you can always call the Rescue Service (number 112), whose specialists will help to provide first aid to the patient and call an ambulance. It should be borne in mind that doctors go home only if there is a threat to the life of the patient or if it is not possible to deliver the patient on their own to the hospital (in some provinces of Spain, the patient may be charged a fee of 5 euros).
Spanish hospital emergency departments
Emergency departments in Spain are open in every hospital. Free care is provided only in public hospitals. For examination and diagnosis, the patient is placed in the “observación” room, where the patient can stay up to 24 hours. If, after this time, the doctors come to the conclusion that hospitalization is necessary, then the patient is transported to the main building of the hospital and placed in the appropriate ward. Relatives of the patient await the decision of the doctors in the waiting room “sala de espera”, while they are periodically called to give news about the patient’s condition, the need for hospitalization, etc.
If you wish to receive private ambulance, you must have insurance. When concluding a health insurance contract, you will be given the telephone number of the insurance company’s 24-hour service, through which you can call an ambulance.
You can also call an ambulance by calling the private hospital where you are usually treated. All private insurances cover calling and providing an ambulance. An exception may be complex studies or some surgical interventions already in the inpatient department (it is necessary to clarify this issue when insuring). In a private hospital, you can be admitted without insurance, but on a paid basis.
If you cannot find an ambulance in an emergency or think that you cannot explain to the operator the reason for the call, you can directly contact the Center for Business and Life Services in Spain “Spain in Russian”, whose staff will organize an ambulance call on house, as well as provide a telephone translation service.
Service Center “Spain in Russian” organizes your treatment in Spain. Selection of the best clinics, specialists, check-up examinations, childbirth, accompaniment to appointments. Individual solution for each patient.

The high level of medical development in Spain applies to the system as follows called ambulance, which is considered one of the best in Europe. And this despite the fact that the first ambulance appeared in the country almost 35 years ago, which was caused by a high mortality rate – primarily as a result of traffic accidents, stroke and myocardial infarction. Often, single patients simply could not get to a medical facility and died at home or on the way to hospitals. In this regard, the Spanish government decided to equip medical institutions with special vehicles, which were designed to deliver the patient to their destination as soon as possible, and, if necessary, provide first aid on the spot. However, all the principles of the work of the ambulance were legislatively enshrined only in 2006 by a special Royal Decree.
How to call an ambulance in Spain
Sometimes Spaniards and foreign residents are faced with the problem of how to call an ambulance in Spain for the first time. This can be done in two ways.
If you have a personal medical card, you should dial the Spanish emergency number on the back. This number belongs to the clinic to which the patient is assigned, and there he will be taken for assistance;
The Rescue Service can help you call an ambulance, which, based on the information it has, will determine the necessary hospital. In the vast majority of the territory, the ambulance number in Spain is the same as that of the unified Rescue Service – 112, but in some regions the old phone – 061 is still in operation.
Even in large cities in Spain, if there are traffic jams, you don’t have to wait an hour for an ambulance, and the average time of its arrival from the moment of calling is, depending on the location of the nearest brigade, about 10 minutes.
According to current regulations, a regular ambulance team must include a driver and an attendant, whose purpose is to transport the victim to the appropriate hospital. However, in especially critical cases, an ambulance with a doctor and a nurse is sent to the exit. Upon arrival at the medical institution, the patient, if he is not in an extremely serious condition, which is determined by the doctor, enters the diagnostic room, from where he is likely to go home. And after carrying out all the necessary procedures, a decision is made on his hospitalization.
Features of the ambulance service in Spain
As in many countries, the ambulance service in Spain has its own characteristics of work. For example, an ambulance call in Spain can be carried out in case of almost any ailment, but if a person is able to move on his own two feet and does not need emergency medical care, then the “ambulance” will not leave on call. In addition, Spain has a number of features of the emergency ambulance service that distinguish it from other countries, both for better and for worse:
Spain has both public and private ambulances. In the first case, the patient must be taken to a nearby hospital, and in the second, to one that is covered by his insurance. That is, a patient who is served by state insurance cannot count on being treated in any private hospital.
The ambulance number in Spain in an emergency is the same as for public hospitals as for private hospitals. However, “private traders” accept only their clients, and not all those in need in a row.
Regardless of whether the patient is a foreign resident or an illegal immigrant, emergency care will be provided to him if his life is in danger.
In the vast majority of autonomies in Spain, emergency care is available to seriously ill patients, severely injured in an accident, pregnant women and minors, regardless of their country of origin.
In many regions of the country, a fee of 5e to the hospital is charged for transporting a patient in an ambulance, and the same amount if there is no serious threat to the patient’s health, and he intends to return home in the same car in order to avoid any or complications.
In the event that the patient reaches the nearest public hospital “on foot” (and far from everyone is accepted on board) – namely, to the emergency room, he will be admitted, examined and, depending on the results of the examination, placed in hospital or transferred to outpatient treatment.
In the case of pediatric emergency care, as a rule, almost all doctors speak at least English, which makes it much easier to communicate with young patients.
Ambulance for tourists in Spain
One of the most pressing problems in Spain at the moment is the provision of emergency ambulance to tourists from other countries. The easiest way in this regard is for citizens of the EU countries who do not need to purchase separate medical insurance for a trip to Spain. For all others, a medical policy with a minimum coverage of 30 thousand euros is required, which includes the repatriation of the body of the deceased to their homeland.
As practice shows, the biggest problem experienced by ambulances in Spain for foreign tourists, as well as in many other countries, is the language barrier. Not all employees of the Spanish ambulance are fluent in English, and knowledge of Russian in many regions is a rarity. It is one thing when there is a discussion of prices in a street market, and quite another when the question comes about the life and health of a foreigner who has arrived to spend his summer vacation in Spain.
Unfortunately, for foreigners from countries outside the European Union, in almost all autonomous communities of Spain, their illegal residents can no longer count on the provision of full medical care – only emergency, urgent, for pregnant women and minors. However, this does not in any way affect other patients who always know how to call an ambulance in Spain.
Travelers in distress usually call the Spanish emergency number (112 or 061) in order to resolve their health problems.
Ambulance in Spain for tourists does not discriminate with the locals, unless it is private insurance. In the end, you must first contact the Russian insurance company, whose policy is on hand, and after agreeing on all the controversial points, present all the necessary documents to the local ambulance – paid or free.

Emergency medical assistance for foreigners in Spain

Spain is considered a country with a high level of health development. In this country, medical care is provided both in public medical institutions and in private clinics.
But before you get such help, you often have to call an ambulance. Therefore, people living in Spain or planning a trip to this country need to know how this service is organized, and what you may encounter when calling an ambulance.
How the ambulance is organized
By Royal Decree No. 103/2006 in the country , the regulation on the ambulance was approved at the legislative level. The same document approved the list of medical services provided by this service throughout Spain.
Currently, all hospitals in the country have emergency departments and serve patients.
This service is also available in private clinics. But private ambulances operate on a commercial basis and only treat casualties with private insurance.
The provision of emergency care and the delivery of the victim to the hospital in most cases is carried out by specialized vehicles. However, there may not be a certified doctor as part of a team leaving on a call.
The standard ambulance (Ambulancia básica) involves the departure of a team consisting of a driver and an orderly and the delivery of the victim to the territorial hospital. Volunteers who have undergone special training may also be included in the composition of such a brigade.
Usually an ambulance arrives very quickly when a patient is called. Even in a major city in Spain, where traffic jams and congestion are possible, will not have to wait more than 5-10 minutes for an ambulance.
But if the dispatching service, when called, considers that the victim is not in critical condition and can independently get to the territorial hospital, then he will be asked to do this, and the ambulance will not leave on call.
In difficult cases, when the life and health of a person is really in danger, Ambulancia Medicalizada (SEM) resuscitation vehicle leaves on call. In this case, the team includes a nurse and a resuscitator. The decision on the need to leave the resuscitation team is made by a doctor working in the control room of the Rescue Service.
Medical assistance will also be provided if the patient arrives at the emergency department on their own. In this case, he will be asked to undergo an examination to make a final decision on further treatment.
At the same time, the patient is sent to a special room “observación”, in which all necessary medical actions are carried out. It should be borne in mind that the procedure for medical examination and diagnosis can be delayed and last up to 24 hours.
Only after all the tests are done, the doctors will make a final decision on the need for hospitalization or outpatient treatment.
While the patient is in the “observación” room, his relatives may be in the special “sala de espera” waiting room. From time to time they are called to the doctor to inform about the current condition of the patient and the need for his hospitalization.
Ambulance emergency numbers
Spain, as a member of the European Union, uses the generally accepted system in this interstate entity to notify the rescue dispatcher of the need for emergency assistance.
Telephone number where you can contact the dispatch service and call an ambulance – 112
In some areas of the country, there is an ambulance telephone 061, which was used before the introduction of the generally accepted number 112
When contacting the Rescue Service, you should keep in mind that you will most likely have to communicate in Spanish.
This is not always convenient, as the country is visited by many tourists and not all of them speak Spanish. Spain is aware of this problem and is working hard to resolve it. In order to minimize the language problem, the Service is actively implementing a system of simultaneous translation, and it is already successfully operating in many provinces of the country.
Category of persons entitled to use ambulance
According to the current legislation, the public health system guarantees unimpeded access to medical services to all citizens of Spain, as well as stateless persons paying social insurance.
But the ambulance service will not check with the register of the social insurance system, and find out the social status of the victim. Emergency assistance will be provided to anyone who needs it.
Cost of ambulance
Emergency medical care provided by public hospitals is free. But here it must be borne in mind that will be free only for emergency care.

Charco La Laja nature pool of Tenerife beaches
Charco La Laja is a breathtaking wonder of nature by San Juan de la Rambla on the Tenerife Northwest coast. Picturesque serpentine stone stairs provide easy access, although not for wheel chairs.
Where is this bathing idyll?

From the central town bus stop of Titsa 363 on Avda. Jose Antonio to the Laja: About 12 minutes on foot
This ocean Charco that looks like a Lagune nests deep down below a rocky outskirt about fifteen minutes by car from Puerto de la Cruz by the Atlantic Ocean. Its often ferocious tidal waves have molded this natural rock pool over time. It’s now a coastal jewel that resembles a turquoise gemstone. An astounding color for an early 2019 Winter afternoon on January 16.
Ecological assets of the Charco La Laja
Volcanic Colades and Basaltic Pyrioclasts
created what looks like a romantic haven in a peaceful environment.
There, sun bathers on unequal, rocky terraces gaze daydreaming into the
calm pond below. Giant boulders flank protecting on the right. On the
left, more jagged ones portray a contrast of menace.
Why a danger board in three languages?
The natural barrier that separates the enclave from the Atlantic isn’t safe enough.
In fact, warnings are up for a reason, as the board beside clearly shows.
Unfortunately, tourists often ignore danger boards just like red and yellow flags by beaches, as I could witness last year.
Notice where the girl that swam stands by the mini breakwater in my little video.
By the way, I took friends to the Charco which I love so much at the beginning of February 2019. Red flags were on many Tenerife beaches on that day.
So?
Well, the Charco de la Laja was totally cordoned off. Big red signs warned not to enter the area because of dangerous waves. This shows you how concerned the people at the town hall are now to prevent that tourists or locals may be harmed.
Tidal waves on a windy day will overtake
with force. It will claim the innocent bather. Then, uncontrollable
currents will make it impossible to return to the shore.
A fatal Charco de Laja drama in 2019
In fact, four Lithuanians who were in the
main pool were washed out to sea on January 16. One of two rescue
helicopters could only save two, one of which had sacrificed his life
trying to help.
More about the San Juan de la Rambla Laja
Size? About 22 meters in diameter and 2m at its deepest
Ideal for first time divers permitted from 10 years onward in the Canary Islands (an instructor is a must for starters)
Exposed? Little but dangerous at times
Wheelchair friendly? No
Recommended for the elderly? With much precaution
Amenities like toilets and showers? No
Life savers? Only in summer
Fresh drinking water? No
Food and drink sales? Supermarket Avenida opposite Farmacia Los Castaños
Parking? By the lookout or in Calle Los Sabadeños
Many tourists? Not too bad which may change soon
I saw about 20
tourists, most of which were coming and going within the half hour I
have spent there in the mid afternoon on a Tenerife winter day.
Getting there by Titsa 363 or 108
Only Titsa bus 363 take you to the center of San Juan de la Rambla near the farmacy Farmacia Los Castaños. From there, walk or drive right into C/Los Sabadeños and continue straight to the Laja. A bus stop to return to Puerto de la Cruz is only by the freeway TF5, one of which is opposite Calle de la Luz where Titsa 108 also takes you back to the capital Santa Cruz.
Dévora Café Bar Restaurant
Since about October 2018 Dévora Café called a Cafeteria by the locals is in Calle Estrecha,15. It is the next good place when you are hungry and come from the Charco. The Dévora has much on offer for buying lunch or supper or to just have a coffee or any drink. Find it near the Caixa Bank just off the Church place Plaza Oramos. From February 2019 onward you may eat al fresco on a terrace upstairs as well.

Charco de la Laja (Naturpool am Meer) in San Juan de la Rambla
Wenn du auf Teneriffa einen schönen Naturpool am Meer suchst, ist der Charco de la Laja genau der richtige Ort für dich. Der natürliche Lavapool liegt im kleinen Fischerdort San Juan de la Rambla im Norden von Teneriffa und ist derzeit noch fast ein Geheimtipp. Der Eintritt ist frei und das gesamte Erscheinungsbild des Lavapools ist sehr naturbelassen. Um den Pool erreichen zu können, wurden ca. 150 Treppenstufen in die Felsen gebaut, die aus Lavasteinen bestehen und sich somit perfekt ins natürliche Bild der Küste einpassen.
Anzeige
Der gesamte Bereich besteht aus insgesamt 3 Aussichtsplattformen und einem Lavapool. Umkleidekabinen, sanitäre Einrichtungen oder Gastronomie gibt es hier nicht. Und auch ein Strand ist am Charco de la Laja nicht vorhanden. Dafür findest du unten am Pool mehrere Felsen, auf die du dich hinsetzen oder auch hinlegen kannst.
AnzeigenVor allem bei Flut lohnt es sich auch ohne Badeabsicht zum natürlichen Lavapool nach San Juan de la Rambla zu kommen. Denn dann schlagen die Wellen mit teils hoher Wucht auf die Felsen auf und lassen das Meerwasser imposant in die Höhe steigen. Das Wasser spritzt über die Felsen bis in den Pool hinein und erzeugt zwischenzeitlich sogar einen natürlichen Wasserfall an der Seite des Pools. Schaue dir auf dem nachfolgenden Bild am besten selbst an, wie schön dies aussieht:

Schwimmen im Charco de la Laja
Wenn du nicht nur aufgrund der schönen Kulisse nach San Juan de la Rambla kommst, kannst du im Charco de la Laja auch schwimmen gehen. Der natürliche Lavapool ist zum Baden freigegeben und kann kostenfrei genutzt werden. Hierfür wurden extra Treppen bis hinunter in den Pool gebaut. Zur Sicherheit befindet sich oben am Pool zudem ein Rettungsring.
Der Charco de la Laja ist ca. 1,40 Meter tief, sodass Erwachsene hier in der Regel gut stehen können. Kinder sollten am besten nur mit Aufsicht der Eltern hier schwimmen gehen. Bei Flut ist der Wasserstand des Atlantischen Ozeans so hoch, dass die Wellen regelmäßig in den Pool hinein schwappen und auch das an den Felsen aufprallende Meerwasser mit Wucht in den Pool hineinschlägt.
Daher solltest du bei Flut etwas vorsichtiger sein und dich nach Möglichkeit nicht am äußeren Rand des Pools zur Meerseite aufhalten. Es gibt hier nämlich eine Stelle, an der das Wasser wieder zurück ins Meer läuft und vor allem Kinder hier mit hinausgezogen werden könnten. Sei daher besser einmal zu vorsichtig, als einmal zu nachlässig und gehe am besten bei Ebbe schwimmen. Die Gezeiten für San Juan de la Rambla findest du z.B. auf dieser Webseite.
AnzeigenAnsonsten ist das Baden im Charco de la Laja aber ein echtes Vergnügen. Das Meerwasser im Pool ist kristallklar, sodass du problemlos bis auf den Grund schauen kannst. Der Pool hat mindestens die Temperatur des Atlantischen Ozeans oder ist manchmal auch etwas wärmer. In den Wintermonaten liegt die Wasser-Temperatur bei ca. 18 Grad Celsius und steigt in den Sommermonaten auf bis zu 23 Grad Celsius.
Aussichtspunkte am Charco de la Laja
Der Charco de la Laja ist nicht nur zum Baden ein lohnenswertes Ausflugsziel. Auch die einschlagenden Wellen und die schönen Aussichtspunkte sind eine Reise wert. Am Charco de la Laja gibt es insgesamt drei Aussichtspunkte. Wenn du von der Straße aus zu den Treppen gehst, befinden sich die ersten schönen Aussichten sowohl zur rechten wie auch zur linken Seite. Links gibt es zudem auch Bänke mit Palmen, auf denen du eine Zeit lang verweilen kannst.
Wenn du dann ein Stück die Treppen hinunter gehst, erreichst du nach wenigen Minuten die zweite Aussichtsplattform. Hier bietet sich ein schöner Blick auf die Küste in Richtung Nordwesten. Je nach Wellengang schlagen die Wellen auch hier wuchtig auf die Küste auf, sodass du von oben dem Naturspektakel zuschauen kannst.
Der dritte Aussichtspunkt befindet sich dann schon recht nah am Naturpool, sodass du hier den Badegästen beim Schwimmen zusehen kannst. Wenn du selbst nicht im Lavapool baden willst, kannst du dich hier eine Zeit lang auf die Felsen setzen und den Wellen zuschauen. Das Ambiente ist hier auch trockenen Fußes sehr lohnenswert.Anzeigen

DÍA 3: TENERIFE (PUERTO DE LA CRUZ, CHARCO DE LA LAJA, HORNO DE CAL, ALIMOCHE, CHARCO DE LOS CHOCHOS, MIRADOR DEL FRAILE, FARO DE TENO)
29 de Enero de 2019
Después de la paliza del día anterior, hoy los kilómetros los haría el coche y no yo. Íbamos a recorrer el norte de la isla visitando los puntos más llamativos.
Un día más el tiempo no acompañaba: nublado, lloviznando y con mucho viento. Parecía que estábamos en Galicia, más que en las Islas Canarias.
Cogimos el coche y fuimos a visitar la Gigante de Santa Úrsula. Por desgracia, al llegar allí había jardineros poniéndole flores. Nos fuimos y decidí probar suerte al día siguiente.
Continuamos la ruta en el Puerto de la Cruz. Lo que vimos en el coche no diferenciaba a este pueblo de un Torremolinos cualquiera (un pueblo orientado al turismo lleno de tiendas de souvenirs y cafeterías). Menos mal que lo que visitamos fue distinto.
Recorrimos varias de sus calles haciendo la ruta de los murales llamada Street Art (descargar el plano aquí). Está planteado igual que el Soho en Málaga.
El plano no lo tienen actualizado, por lo que vimos algunos murales más que no aparecían en el plano.
Nos animamos a probar unos churros en la Churrería Perdomo (y de paso entrar al baño). Descubrí que los churros de Tenerife son como las porras de Málaga pero mil veces más densos y más caros: 4 churros por 1.50 €.
Comí sólo uno y parecía que había tomado un pan de lembas entero.
Más tarde descubrimos que muy cerca había unos baños públicos.
Después paseamos alrededor de la Playa del Muelle y la Batería de Santa Bárbara.
Mientras recorríamos los murales descubrimos otros encantos de este pueblo, como sus balcones de madera o sus casas de colores.
Tras la visita, pusimos rumbo al siguiente destino: el Charco de la Laja (coordenadas: 28.395577, -16.651500).
En verano es una piscina natural, pero en invierno y con ese viento era una atracción turística y poco más. Fue formado por los restos de las erupciones volcánicas y en todo el entorno se puede observar las caprichosas formas que creó la lava. Os dejo unas fotos retocadas de cómo se vería un día más o menos bueno.
Aunque podéis ver en el vídeo que el día estaba nublado y oscuro.
Miguel se enfadó porque, tras mucho rato grabando a pie de la charca y en vista que las olas no daban para más, decidimos irnos. Mientras subíamos las escaleras al marcharnos de allí, el mar se embraveció y comenzaron a entrar olas muy fuertes. Parecía que esperaba a que nadie lo grabara. Miguel pudo grabar el final.
Ya era la hora de comer. Como siempre, buscamos en Google Maps y me decidí por un restaurante de pueblo llamado El Frenazo. Fue una fantástica elección. Pedimos: garbanzas (que es otro plato de garbanzos típico de Canarias), costillar asado (mucho más grande de lo que parece en la foto) y croquetas de pescado. De postre, quesillo (flan de queso típico canario) y flan de gofio (aún más canario, el gofio es una especie de harina de cereales). No pudimos acabar tal barbaridad de comida y decidimos pedir las croquetas para llevar. Todo muy bueno, casero y abundante. La cuenta muy barata para la cantidad de comida: 23.60 €.
Hartos de comer, pusimos rumbo al siguiente destino (coordenadas: 28.379077, -16.813522). Allí vimos varias cosas: un antiguo horno de cal, una escultura de un alimoche realizada con materiales reciclados (me hizo mucha gracia que Miguel supiera perfectamente qué tipo de ave era), la réplica del esqueleto de una ballena hembra y el Charco de los Chochos. Este charco debe su nombre a que antiguamente los campesinos de toda la comarca llegaban hasta allí para poner en remojo los altramuces, que popularmente son conocidos como chochos, y así quitarles el amargor.
Estuvimos poco tiempo allí porque el aire era frío y cortante. El siguiente punto a visitar fue la Cueva de El Rayo (coordenadas: 28.392122, -16.832488).
Es una inmensa abertura con varias teorías sobre su origen: por el derrumbe de una cueva ya existente o el fruto de la erosión generada por el viento sobre la roca. Debe su nombre a otra teoría sobre su origen, y es la creencia de que se formó por un rayo un día de tormenta. No es sencillo llegar hasta ella y creo que habría sido imposible sin el GPS.
Pusimos rumbo al Faro de Teno, uno de los lugares más bonitos de Tenerife. Por el camino vimos inmensas fincas de plataneros y enormes acantilados de lava. Un día soleado debe ser espectacular.
Por el camino paramos en el Mirador Punta del Fraile (coordenadas: 28.366755, -16.884466). Apenas hay hueco para parar un coche, así que si está ocupado os será difícil poder verlo.
El viento aquí directamente me empujaba y me hizo perder el equilibrio en varias ocasiones. Os aseguro que las vistas eran mucho más bonitas de lo que el vídeo (con tanta nube y viento) logra captar.
El último punto a visitar en el día fue el Faro de la Punta de Teno (coordenadas: 28.342633, -16.920455). La carretera para llegar aquí no siempre está abierta al tráfico de vehículos privados, que normalmente sólo pueden acceder libremente los lunes, martes y miércoles (no festivos), y el resto de la semana tienen el horario restringido la mayor parte del día; por tanto, os recomiendo consultar qué días de la semana y a qué horas está restringido el tráfico.
Tuvimos algo de suerte y el sol apareció un poco entre las nubes para ofrecernos un bonito atardecer y disfrutar de esta zona.
El faro en sí no es visitable y no puedes acercarte a menos de 100 metros porque tiene una cancela.
Los días despejados se puede ver la isla de La Gomera desde aquí. Nosotros la vimos oculta bajo un manto de nubes (fijaos en la segunda foto).
Ya a las 19:00 no había luz, así que pusimos rumbo de vuelta. Habíamos estado todo el día con el coche y nos separaban casi 2 horas de nuestro piso.
Yo no tenía mucha hambre (seguía saturada por el almuerzo) y me apetecía tapear, así que buscamos un sitio de camino al piso. Paramos de nuevo en el Puerto de la Cruz donde leímos en Google Maps sobre una tapería con muy buenas críticas. El lugar se llamaba Restaurante el Camino. Cada tapa costaba 4.50 €, pero si pedías el mix de tapas para dos personas, te entraban todas por 21.50 €. Visto lo visto, nos convenía. Lo que yo no sabía es que vendrían 10 tapas bastante abundantes (no me salió bien la idea de cena ligera de tapeo). Incluía: albóndigas con tomate, champiñones, tortilla de patatas, fabes, pollo, patatas gajo, calamares, ensaladilla rusa, arroz con pasas y verdura mixta.
Con el postre vino la anécdota del viaje con el acento canario. Los isleños pronuncian todo con «s» en vez de con «c» o «z». Como íbamos apuntando todo lo que pedíamos de comida, cuando nos dijo que de postre tenía «Lasso», un dulce de hojaldre y yema, Miguel le preguntó de nuevo como se decía para escribirlo. El camarero le respondió «Lasso», y Miguel, inocente de él y dado que no conocía el postre, le preguntó: «¿Con una «s» o con dos?» La cara del camarero fue mítica cuando le respondió: «Eh… con seta…» (con zeta). Yo me aguanté la risa porque no pensara el chaval que me reía de él, pero la vergüenza que pasamos fue cómica… 😀
Tras la cena pusimos rumbo al piso. Había sido un día muy frío y apetecía una buena ducha de agua caliente y descanso.

Charco La Laja, en Tenerife: la mejor piscina natural de España
Escrito en . Publicado en Tenerife
El Charco La Laja se encuentra situado en el municipio de San Juan de la Rambla, en la costa norte de Tenerife. El encanto de esta zona es que se trata de una costa muy escarpada y accidentada que da lugar a paisajes espectaculares, como este.
Espectaculares no solo porque lo digamos nosotros; el propio diario El Mundo nombró el Charco La Laja como la mejor piscina natural de España…
Se trata de una piscina natural que fue creada por las erupciones volcánicas que ha sufrio la isla a lo largo de su historia y que llegaron al mar…
Cuando publicamos algunas imágenes por stories a través de nuestro perfil Instagram y preguntamos si conocían el lugar, nos sorprendió que la mayoría no lo conocía. Y nos sorprendió también que automáticamente se desató la polémica…
Muchas personas nos escribían pidiéndonos más información sobre el lugar porque, ¿quién no iba a querer conocer un lugar así? Pero muchas otras nos pedían que no compartiéramos su ubicación, para que las personas no puedan llenarlo de basura y acabar destrozándolo.
Etendemos esa postura, pero no la compartimos. Nosotros, que tratamos de mostrar alternativas de viajes sostenibles, en Tenerife y también en los lugares a los que viajamos, entendemos el cambio que necesita el planeta en positivo.
Es evidente que aún queda mucho camino por recorrer en la concienciaión. Pero estamos seguros que se puede lograr mucho más compartiendo que ocultando lugares… Por eso hemos hecho este vídeo. El obejtivo no es solo que cualquiera que quiera disfrutar de él, tenga la información y pueda hacerlo, sino que, con estas imágenes, pretendemos “tocar la fibra” de quienes lo vean. Y que ante tanta belleza, sientan la necesidad de comenzar a cambiar hábitos y preocuparse por la huella que dejamos en el medio ambiente.
Qué hacer, qué ver y cómo llegar al Charco La Laja
Este no es un lugar secreto. De hecho, el Charco de la Laja está acondicionado para el baño y se accede a través de unas escaleras empinadas, pero que hacen el camino muy sencillo.
Lo que no logramos entender es cómo en un lugar como este, acondicionado para el baño y para facilitar el acceso hasta el mismo, prácticamente no hay papeleras (solo se encuentran arriba, justo en el comienzo de las escaleras que dan acceso). Aunque, esta no es una excusa para que el lugar quede totalmente limpio si lo visitas, asegúrate de meter la basura en una bolsa y llevártela contigo de nuevo.
En esta zona de la isla el oleaje es muy fuerte y acaba arrastrando todo lo que dejamos en la costa hacia el mar. ..
La belleza no está solo en el charco, sino en el conjunto del paisaje. Y la importancia de sus valores naturales se debe a las características del entorno, al situarse junto al mar en un lugar estratégico desde le punto de vista orográfico y paisajístico; por lo que todo el conjunto del paisaje, la flora y la fauna hacen de este rincón un lugar con especiales características naturales.
Nuestro consejo: abre los ojos, mira más allá y usa los 5 sentidos… ¡es un lugar único!
¡Precaución!
El charco es aparentemente inofensivo, pero tal y como hemos dicho un poco más arriba, cuando hay mar de fondo las olas llegan a chocar contra las rocas y meterse dentro del charco. Es un auténtico espectáculo, porque la espuma baja por las rocas en forma de cascada; pero también puede ser muy peligroso.
No te acerques si encuentras estas condiciones condiciones, porque una ola podría arrastrate mar adentro. Desgraciadamente, varias personas han muerto aquí por esta imprudencia.
¡Mil gracias por leernos!

Aerial view of a natural pool in the Canary Islands.
Without waves, with calm water, even on those days when the sea is noticeably rough. The nature of the Canary Islands has led to the formation of natural pools, protected from sea currents, where swimming will be pleasant for everyone. In addition, many of them have stairs, walkways and jumps, which makes them even more convenient. Many consider the Canary Islands to be small oases in the Atlantic Ocean. They say so because spring temperatures almost always reign here, which allows you to enjoy the beauty of their volcanic nature at almost any time of the year. The same can be said about the natural pools in the most rocky areas of the islands: it does not matter that the sea has a strong surf or currents. Their calm waters make it possible to enjoy swimming any day. These images will help you get to know them better, and we will tell you about the most popular ones.

Natural pools in Tenerife
The most famous pools are in the north of Tenerife and two of them are quite close to each other. These are Charco de la Laja and Charco del Viento, two natural pools created by the whims of volcanoes. The first one is located in San Juan de la Rambla, and although it is very easy to get into it, you may not reach the water soon. What is the reason? In the views from the observation deck and the number of photos that you want to take. The second one is easily accessible from the highway leading to Icod de los Vinos. Here you will be enchanted by the views of Spain’s highest peak, Mount Teide. Charco del Viento has several bathing areas, with sand or rocky arches, but the water is crystal clear everywhere. UNESCO, so you can combine these two excursions. There are several swimming areas here, including two large swimming pools, a children’s pool and a light-colored sandy beach protected from the sea.
The Caleton Basin is located in Garachico, one of the most photographed historic centers on the island. Calm dams are combined here with areas where sea water enters. From all these places you can admire beautiful views of the coast.
Natural pools in Gran Canaria
In Gran Canaria, natural pools are also concentrated in the north of the island. We will tell you about the four pools that are located over 40 kilometers on the way from the capital of the island, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, to Agaete. The closest to Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is the pool known as Los -Charcones, in Arucas. At first glance, it may seem very secluded, although it can be easily reached from the GC-2 expressway. There are three large swimming areas, one of which is especially suitable for children. An interesting fact: many people say that from the air this pool resembles a human figure with its shape.Charco de San Lorenzo is located just five kilometers away, in the municipal district of Moya. There are two swimming pools, numerous services and a sand area. About 10 kilometers away, in Santa Maria de Guia, are the Roque Prieto pools. Compared to other pools, they are more private and are great for forgetting about the hustle and bustle. Areas with shallow depths are combined here with zones up to three meters deep.
At the end of the route through the natural pools in the north of Gran Canaria, we will reach Salinas de Agaete, which can be easily reached from the port of this village. These three basins are connected by lava tubes and protected from the surf by walls that resemble fortifications. We recommend you go snorkeling to discover the amazing marine life. This village is known for its fishermen’s cuisine.
Natural pools on the island of El Hierro
This small island of the Canary archipelago is a real volcanic whim, and therefore you can see amazingly beautiful natural pools here. If you come here with the whole family, we recommend you the La Maceta pool in Frontera (in the north of El Hierro). The Pozo de las Calcosas in the El Monacal (Valverde) region is unique and has an interesting natural environment. It is a small cove sheltered by a cliff that houses curious thatched volcanic stone houses once built by local fishermen. Not far away are the pools of La Caleta, where the natural shape of the rocks is used to make the pools more comfortable and avoid the need to walk on rocky ledges.
An excellent plan for a holiday on La Palma: Hike in the forests or other stunning scenery in the morning, and relax in the afternoon on one of the beautiful beaches or, especially if on the sea excitement, in natural pools. You can do this in the north of the island, for example by visiting the famous linden forest, and then the natural pool of Charco Azul (“blue puddle”) in San Andrés y Sauces. Seeing the bright blue color of the water, you will understand how its name came about. It is large and completely protected from the waves of the sea, and in addition there is a pool for children. About 10 kilometers north, in Barlovento, you can visit La Fajana. This place is ideal for families thanks to the three pools and leisure area.
Are you looking for family holidays in a fishing village or in pools that are practically isolated from the rest of the world? The first of these options awaits you in Punta Mujeres in the northeast of Lanzarote. This place seems to be a natural water park (with minimal human intervention) and is located near a beautiful village with white houses. The second possibility is Los Charcones in the south of the island, not far from Playa Blanca. These are amazing pools, but you need to consider that access to them is quite difficult and while swimming you need to carefully monitor the state of the sea.
Los Charcones Natural Pools, Gran Canaria
Natural pools in Fuerteventura
This is an island with less rocky coastline and long beaches with light sand. However, in the area of Betancuria, for six kilometers, there are numerous small reservoirs and places where the sea juts out into the land, and after high tide, small natural pools form here. This area is known as Aguas Verdes. Having been here, you will certainly find in its warm waters the peace and relaxation that you are striving for. Are you familiar with Lobos Island? This is a virtually unspoiled island of less than 5 square kilometers, which can be reached in about 20 minutes by ship from Corralejo (northeast of Fuerteventura). On it you will find heavenly beaches with clear water, small ponds and natural pools, distinguished by their beauty.
There are few natural pools on this island, but there are numerous beaches with calm waters, such as La Cueva and San Sebastian (both in San Sebastian de La Gomera) or Vueltas (in Valle Gran Rey). It is in Valle Gran Rey that Charco del Conde is located, the most popular natural pool of the island of La Gomera. It is recommended for families and has a sandy beach where you can sunbathe.
– Although most natural pools are protected from the surf, remember that you are at sea and therefore you should always be careful and watch the behavior of the waves. – Many natural pools are located between rocks and therefore you may need to shoes for rocky beach.- Swimming in some natural pools is possible or easier depending on the sea level. The following list indicates the state of high and low tide (low tide, high tide or average water level) when you can swim in each of the natural pools: Tenerife : Charco de la Laja (low tide) – Charco del Viento (low tide) – Bajamar pools (low tide) – Caleton de Garachico (medium) Gran Canaria : Los Charcones (middle) level) – Charco de San Lorenzo (low tide) – Roque Prieto basins (middle level) – Salinas de Agaete (middle level) El Hierro : La Maceta (low tide) – La Caleta (at any time) – Pozo de las Calcosas (low tide) La Palma: Charco Azul (middle tide) – La Fajana (low tide) Lanzarote : Punta Mujeres (middle tide) – Los Charcones (low tide) Fuerteventura : Aguas Verdes (low tide) – Puertito de Lobos (high tide) La Gomera : Charco del Conde (middle level)

Tenerife natural pools: my advice
Pools come in different sizes and shapes. Many have easy access, ladders and benches.
One of the natural wonders of Tenerife is the unique natural pools. Created by nature itself, they arose as a result of volcanic eruptions. Lava flows descended to the waves of the ocean and solidified, forming bizarre shapes.
Most natural pools are small bays filled with cool sea water. Many such places were ennobled – stairs, ramps, benches were built.
I have collected information on all the volcanic basins in Tenerife in one article. I visited many of them personally, swam and watched. Collected real reviews about others. Now I want to share my experience with you.
CONTENTS
Swimming pools on the southwest coast of Tenerife
On the southwest coast of Tenerife, where the main tourist resorts are located, there are only three natural pools. But each of them is worth a visit. Moreover, it is very easy to get to them.
Paseo La Jaquita, Alcala: a peaceful place
Paseo La Jaquita is a little known swimming pool complex in the town of Alcala. It is located directly opposite the chic RedLevel at Palacio de Isora hotel. Despite such a neighborhood, there are very few visitors here, sometimes you can even retire.
In my opinion, this is one of the best natural pools in Tenerife. I came here very often. Very close are the wonderful beaches of Jaquita with black sand and cafes, as well as the picturesque promenade of Alcala.
The pools have a convenient descent into the water with ladders and handrails, benches are provided.
But it’s not so easy to find a parking place here. The nearest car park is in front of the entrance to the RedLevel at Palacio de Isora, but there are few spaces. You can park on the street along the Gran Meliá Palacio de Isora, and the beaches are only a few minutes’ walk away.
El Tancón: real pool cave
Tenerife natural pools: cave pool
Very unusual pool. It is a cave that fills with water at high tides.
This place is not very famous, so it is usually not crowded. I liked the lack of people, you can fully focus on the sensations of an unusual place. You can come with a cheerful company and jump into the cave.
Please note that the water level in this pool can rise sharply during high tides, so you should be careful when swimming here.
For a family holiday with children, El Tancon is hardly suitable.
Charco de Isla Cangrejo, Los Gigantes: impressive views
On the coast of Los Gigantes is one of my favorite natural pools in Tenerife – Charco de Isla Cangrejo. Despite attempts to protect the pool from the waves with a specially equipped wall, the water here is not always calm. Due to the huge waves, the pool often floods, and it becomes dangerous to swim. Therefore, Charco de Isla Cangrejo is sometimes closed, especially during strong winds and storms. But if you manage to visit here, the impressions will remain forever.
Be sure to take a walk around the area and admire how the waves break on the sea cliffs – there are many excellent viewing platforms. And the sunset here is just divine!
The disadvantages can be attributed to the crowded, which is largely due to the good accessibility of this place and convenient parking nearby.
El Laguillo: more than just a natural pool
The El Laguillo pool complex in Poblado Marinero includes a natural and several artificial pools. It is not as big as Lago Martianez in Puerto de la Cruz. But here there are fewer visitors, calmer and more comfortable. Located near the port of Los Gigantes.
The pools form a large lagoon that is complemented by islands with tropical palm trees, sun loungers for vacationers, and lots of sun and views of the Los Gigantes cliffs.
The water warms up quickly, there are shallow areas, so you can come with children.
There are sun loungers, umbrellas, shower, toilet, small cafe-bar. Entrance for residents is free, for the rest – 5 euros.
Tip: Bring sunscreen, cap and sunglasses.
Pools on the northwest coast of Tenerife (Isla Baja)
The northwestern part of Tenerife, called Isla Baja, has the largest number of natural pools on the island. Their visit can be combined with a trip to the Teno lighthouse, with a trip to the town of Garachico or Teide Park. It is very nice to take a dip in the refreshing water after sightseeing.
Charco Roque, or Charco Las Mujeres
One of the most pleasant pools turned out to be Charco Roque, or Charco Las Mujeres. Located between the beaches of Las Arenas and El Fraile.
Very calm water, bizarre volcanic shapes and wonderful views.
Despite the fact that getting here from the main southern resorts is quite far, this place is unusually beautiful!
Be aware: the place is popular with the locals, but if you arrive early, you will be alone.
Charco Don Gabino
Nature itself has created several entries into the Charco Don Gabino basin. Named after the famous Tenerife banana plantation owner Gabino Dorta. The pool is not very big – about 10 meters long and 2-3 meters wide. But the water here is very clean and clear. There is a separate recreation area where you can lie and sunbathe, stairs with handrails are made.
In the red there are strong waves, which are not rare in this part of the island. During the waves, I do not advise swimming in the part of the pool closest to the sea.
Charco de la Araña
Charco de la Araña: skeleton of a whale skeleton of a sei whale
The swimming pool is located next to the beach of Araña. It fills up at high tide and nearly dries up at low tide. The water is very clear, perfect for snorkelling.
Nearby there is a nice well-equipped embankment where you can take a walk and walk to the neighboring beaches.
Nearby there is also an attraction: a real skeleton of a sei whale. The size of the animal is impressive.
The composition symbolizes people’s respect for the ocean and its inhabitants.
Charco Los Chochos
If you want to get away from everyday worries and be alone for a while, go to Charco Los Chochos. Usually it is very calm here, there are almost no people and there is a lot of space.
The pool is also suitable for children to swim in, not bad for families. The depth is not more than two meters in the deepest part. There are stairs with handrails for easy descent.
The nearby Playa del Puertito is covered with black sand and pebbles.
Very close to Charco de la Araña.
In fine weather, you can see the cliffs of La Culata and the majestic Teide from here.
Charco Juanikin
Shallow small pool with a pebbly beach where you can sunbathe. Equipped descent with a ramp and handrails. Perfect for a family holiday.
Please note that the place is very popular with locals, especially during the warm season from April to November.
Tip: On the eve of the celebration for St. Andrew the Apostle, November 29, there are water fireworks. Considered one of the best in Tenerife.
Charco El Inglés
An attraction for the locals: here they relax and fish. The pool is suitable for swimming, there is a ladder with handrails for easy entry.
Tip: come at high tide when the pool fills up with water. At low tide, almost all the water goes into the ocean.
Charco del Cumplido
In the area of La Caleta de Interian, near the famous salt mines of La Caleta, lies the Charco del Cumplido basin. It has an oblong shape. Depth is about two meters in the deepest part. The water here is very calm. A ramp is provided for a comfortable descent.
I recommend swimming at high tide in the evening, although it will be quite comfortable at low tide.
If the tide is strong, you can swim in the neighboring pools of Las Damas and El Romantico. Water remains in them even at low tide.
Visiting the salt mines, you can learn about the process of salt mining, which has been carried out here for a long time and is a source of income for many families.
El Caleton in Garachico
The El Caleton pool complex was formed in 1706 by the eruption of the Trevejo volcano. During the eruption, most of the city of Garachico, the former main port of Tenerife, was destroyed. Merchants have moved to Puerto de la Cruz, and a new tourist attraction has appeared in Garachico – the bizarrely shaped volcanic pools known throughout the island.
The water is usually calm, children can swim too.
Despite the fact that they are located in the center of the city, and there are quite a lot of vacationers, there is enough space for everyone.
Please note that during strong winds high waves rise and pools may be closed for safety reasons.
Right next to the pools there is a restaurant where you can have a bite while enjoying the amazing view. I recommend trying traditional Canarian seafood dishes.
Pools on the north coast of Tenerife
Charco del Viento
Charco del Viento is a small natural bay, very well protected from the waves. The water is very calm, there are no strong waves.
It is worth visiting not only for those who like to swim: fans of scuba diving and fishing will not be bored here, because there are a lot of fish in the water.
The lack of infrastructure is compensated by the fact that there are always few people in this place. So I definitely recommend this place to lovers of solitude and silence.
La Laja
La Laja is a natural pool that amazes travelers with its beauty. For a long time it was considered secret, because. few people knew about this place. It is very calm here, the water is clear and without waves. There is a sunbathing area.
Tip: In strong winds, ocean waves can hit the pool, be careful.
You should definitely take a walk along the coast and visit the village of San Juan de la Rambla. The local restaurants serve delicious traditional dishes, be sure to try them.
Lago Martianez
Lago Martianez pool complex is one of the main attractions of Puerto de la Cruz
Lago Martianez is not a natural swimming pool, but it is a unique place in its own way. This is a swimming pool complex created by the architect Cesar Manrique right on the coast of Puerto de la Cruz. Elements of traditional Canarian architecture, interesting sculptural compositions, trees and flowers are used.
The complex consists of a huge artificial lake with sea water, four swimming pools for adults and three children’s. There are bars, restaurants and food stalls.
It is very pleasant to spend time here, especially when the ocean is rough.
Mesa del Mar
The two natural pools on the coast of Tacoronte are popular with the locals. Perfect for swimming, there is plenty of space to sunbathe.
In winter, one of the pools becomes shallow and sometimes completely dry. But the second is filled with water all year round.
El Pris: very calm water, raging waves around
El Pris – this is an unusually picturesque view, calm water in the pool and raging ocean waves around. Feelings are indescribable.
Comfortable conditions for rest are created for everyone: a convenient descent with a ladder, a ramp and handrails. The water is very clean and calm, waves appear infrequently.
Tip: Arrive in the afternoon to watch the sun set against the backdrop of the majestic Mount Teide.
After sunset, stop by one of the nearby fish restaurants.

General information about Tenerife
Island, square 2034 km is considered the largest in the Canary archipelago. It is located between the resorts of Gomera and Gran Canaria. Due to its volcanic origin, mountainous relief prevails here. In the center, at 3718 m, rises the Teide stratovolcano, which is the symbol of Tenerife and the highest point in Spain. From 1954 the area around it was turned into a national park. In 2007, it was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Thanks to the Atlantic Ocean, it is warm here all year round: in winter the temperature is within +20…+26°С, in summer it rises to +29°С. Therefore, Tenerife is often called the “Island of Eternal Spring”. The north is cooler than the south.
As of February 2020, 928.6 thousand people lived here. The main city is Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Popular resorts include:
Puerto de la Cruz;
Los Cristianos;
Playa de las Americas.
The official symbols of Tenerife are the dragon tree and the blue finch.
Features of the island’s basins
Thanks to the frozen lava flows in Tenerife, natural reservoirs were formed, which are separated from the ocean by volcanic stones or concrete fences. They differ in different sizes and shapes. In the north, large waves are often observed in the bays, in the south, the reservoirs are calm.
Tenerife basins are small bays formed after the lava hardened.
The depth of pools often depends on the water level. During high tides, some of them are flooded with water, while others dry up at low tide.
Pools on the southwest coast of Tenerife
Most of these pools in the southwest are not popular with tourists. They are visited by local residents, so the infrastructure is poorly developed. But its absence is compensated by the beautiful nature.

Tenerife sea water pools. Spain in Russian
Sea water is useful – that’s a fact. What exactly? Waves give the effect of light massage and improve the tone of blood vessels. The cool water of the Atlantic tempers and strengthens the immune system without any effort on your part. Saturated with minerals and salts, the skin becomes more elastic and elastic, puffiness decreases, injuries, rheumatism and musculoskeletal diseases pass faster. Therefore, bathing in sea water is shown to absolutely everyone, from young to old.
The weather of the “Island of Eternal Spring” does not change much during the year, in the hottest month of August the water in the ocean warms up to +24°C, in winter and spring – only +18-19°C. As we know, Tenerife has many good beaches, from idyllic and gentle to absolutely wild. The waves in the Atlantic Ocean are always strong here, it will be scary for an inexperienced swimmer to swim far even in the bays. If you are a good swimmer, please do not overestimate your strength: ocean waves “drag” you along, be careful! For those who want to swim in a relaxed way, as well as for children, the elderly or just looking for a variety of guests of the island, there are several pools with sea water. We will talk about the best of them.
Lago Martianez
The waves in the ocean near the city of Puerto de la Cruz are quite strong, so they bathe here in the complex of the famous artificial lakes with sea water Lago Martianez. The depth of the pools is small, the water warms up quickly in the sun. The view of the ocean is not overshadowed by anything. A large lake with islands for sunbathing and a fountain and several smaller lakes are surrounded by gardens with local flora and are combined into one recreation complex for children and adults. It is located right on a rock in the open air. This is the work of the famous Canarian architect Cesar Manrique, who managed to succinctly fit all this beauty into the rocky coast. Here you will find a casino, a restaurant and several bars. In the evening, the fountain is beautifully illuminated, so once or twice you can linger in the bath until dark.
Charco de la Laja
As you already understood, the northern coast of Tenerife is a rather harsh place. Thanks to the strongest eruption of the Teide in modern history, namely in 1706, the coastline has changed a lot. Today we see here a unique landscape, a gift of nature. If you’re into extreme sports, look for Charco de la Laja, located in the coastal area of San Juan de la Rambla (San Juan de la Rambla). This is a pool created by solidified lava. Water comes here naturally from the ocean, overflowing over the edge of the pool. The place is “uncivilized” and with waves, but there will be no crowds of tourists here, unless the locals will keep you company.
El Caletón
Not far from here, there is another similar bathing spot, formed by the meeting of boiling lava and ocean waves. Find the seaside promenade (Avenida Marítima) in the city of Garachico. Next to it, you can go down to the wild rocks along the path and swim in a small oblong pool of sea water.
Punta del Hidalgo
In the town of La Laguna you will find a charming, peaceful sea water swimming pool. The place is called Altagay, right by the pool there is a famous fish restaurant of the same name. This is a man-made pool, which means that you can safely sunbathe on the sides, unlike relaxing in the above natural backwaters, where it is not so easy to find a flat area of lava and stretch out comfortably.
Bajamar
Bahamar is a village near the city of La Laguna. The charming fishing village is known for its tidal pools. Unique baths are carved into the rocks, and the water is renewed every ten minutes with large waves. Therefore, it is cool, especially compared to the comfortable Lago Martinez. The complex consists of two large swimming pools and one small one for children. Here it is good to relax and improve your health with the whole family, catch bright small fish with a net, which the waves bring, and sunbathe. After water procedures, you can have a tasty and inexpensive meal in a nearby cafe. In general, the place has a relaxed family atmosphere.
Ten Bel
On the south coast of Tenerife, in the town of Las Galletas, there is an artificial swimming pool with free entry. The pool is also filled with sea water, but mostly swimmers train here. The pool is adjacent to the coast, the view from there is traditionally beautiful, and the air is fresh there.
Park Maritimo Cesar Manrique
Let’s finish our review of seawater pools in the capital of the island (and sometimes the Canary Islands) Santa Cruz.
Here, of course, there is a complex for entertainment in swimsuits – Maritimo Park. Like Lago Martianez, the complex, which occupies 22 sq. km, harmoniously integrated into the landscape of the city and the coast. The entrance to the territory is paid (about 6 euros). Here you will find playgrounds, a jacuzzi, a small artificial beach and sports facilities – all with sea water. In Maritimo Park it is good to celebrate birthdays, relax with the whole family and generally enjoy life.
This is also the work of the architect Cesar Manrique. An entertaining artist and architect born on the neighboring island of Lanzarote has turned it into his personal canvas, an open-air studio! It is thanks to him that Lanzarote has retained its individual style, while Tenerife in places resembles an ordinary American resort. Hot black hardened lava in his hands became like plasticine and obeyed his hands. Manrique has achieved the effect of perfect harmony of his buildings with nature, whether it be water parks or residential buildings, simple garages or art installations. Swimming and sunbathing in the Maritimo Park or Lago Martianez in Tenerife, you will feel this harmony, because nature always reciprocates if you treat it with care.

Tenerife heated sea water pool
Tenerife is a volcanic island. During numerous eruptions, red-hot lava, having reached the ocean and met with water, very quickly and bizarrely solidified, in places forming a kind of “lagoon”. Later, some of them were adapted for swimming and became known as “pissinas naturales” – natural pools.
Natural pools are very useful where there are no beaches at all, and this is a significant part of the coast of Tenerife. But even the presence of a beach does not guarantee comfortable swimming because of the waves, especially in the north of the island, while Pissinas naturales are often better protected. Many Canarians are sure that the lava baths with crystal clear water are much more attractive than traditional beaches in every way. Tourists also like natural pools for their exoticism and authenticity.
1. Garachico
On the waterfront of the small town of Garachico, the most famous natural pools of the island are equipped – the result of the 1706 eruption that destroyed the once main port of Tenerife. Known largely because Garachico lies in the path of sightseeing tours and tourist routes, while other pissinas naturales still need to know where to look.

Nice and well sheltered lava bath in San Juan de la Rambla. For a long time it was considered “secret” in the sense that few uninitiated people knew about it.

4. Los Silos
On the small coast of the municipality of Los Silos there are several natural pools. Charco Los Chochos (pictured) with a maximum depth of about two meters is recommended for families with children. Next door is the Charco de la Araña bath, which appears at low tide and disappears at high tide. Charco El Inglés and Charco Don Gabino are two other popular natural pools in the area.

5. Tacoronte
Tacoronte has two natural pools: El Pris (pictured) and Mesa del Mar. The El Pris pool is a part of the bay, fenced off by a semicircular wall, against which the waves break. The wall is man-made, but such structures are also called natural pools.
28.509416, -16.421420
6. Bahamar
Pissinas naturales are different. There are “wild” ones, with minimal human intervention. And there are such as in Bajamar (Bajamar) – re-ennobled and locked in concrete. And although water still enters them directly from the ocean in a natural way, they can be considered natural very conditionally: there is almost nothing left of nature here.

8. El Tancon
This is not just an ideologically correct natural pool, but a real cave. Located in Puerto de Santiago near the Barcelo Santiago hotel.
Be careful! During the roughness of the ocean, the water level in the cave changes dramatically, up to its complete flooding. You can swim here only when the water is calm.

“Lago Martianes”
Well, at the end of the article, a few words about the complex of pools with sea water “Lago Martianes” in the city of Puerto de la Cruz (Puerto de la Cruz), which is also mistakenly referred to on many sites as pissinas naturales.
Irrespective of ideology, “Lago Martianez” is not a natural pool, if only because the water from the ocean is pumped into them, and does not flow, as expected, in a natural way. A place for swimming and relaxation is pleasant, beloved by residents of the city and tourists, but not Pissinas Naturales, whatever one may say. And yes, there is an entrance fee.
Of course, these are not all the natural pools that Tenerife has. The purpose of the article is to tell what this is, show the variety of forms and give the coordinates of the most remarkable. Need more information – we are waiting for you on the forum.
Sea water is useful – that’s a fact. What exactly? Waves give the effect of light massage and improve the tone of blood vessels. The cool water of the Atlantic tempers and strengthens the immune system without any effort on your part. Saturated with minerals and salts, the skin becomes more elastic and elastic, puffiness decreases, injuries, rheumatism and musculoskeletal diseases pass faster. Therefore, bathing in sea water is shown to absolutely everyone, from young to old.
The weather of the “Island of Eternal Spring” does not change much during the year, in the hottest month of August the water in the ocean warms up to +24°C, in winter and spring – only +18-19°C. As we know, Tenerife has many good beaches, from idyllic and gentle to absolutely wild. The waves in the Atlantic Ocean are always strong here, it will be scary for an inexperienced swimmer to swim far even in the bays. If you are a good swimmer, please do not overestimate your strength: ocean waves “drag” you along, be careful! For those who want to swim in a relaxed way, as well as for children, the elderly or just looking for a variety of guests of the island, there are several pools with sea water. We will talk about the best of them.
Lago Martianez
The waves in the ocean near the city of Puerto de la Cruz are quite strong, so they swim in the complex of the famous artificial lakes with sea water Lago Martianez. The depth of the pools is small, the water warms up quickly in the sun. The view of the ocean is not overshadowed by anything. A large lake with islands for sunbathing and a fountain and several smaller lakes are surrounded by gardens with local flora and are combined into one recreation complex for children and adults. It is located right on a rock in the open air. This is the work of the famous Canarian architect Cesar Manrique, who managed to succinctly fit all this beauty into the rocky coast. Here you will find a casino, a restaurant and several bars. In the evening, the fountain is beautifully illuminated, so once or twice you can linger in the bath until dark.
Charco de la Laja
As you can see, the north coast of Tenerife is a rather harsh place. Thanks to the strongest eruption of the Teide in modern history, namely in 1706, the coastline has changed a lot. Today we see here a unique landscape, a gift of nature. If you’re into extreme sports, look for Charco de la Laja, located in the coastal area of San Juan de la Rambla (San Juan de la Rambla). This is a pool created by solidified lava. Water comes here naturally from the ocean, overflowing over the edge of the pool. The place is “uncivilized” and with waves, but there will be no crowds of tourists here, unless the locals will keep you company.
El Caletón
Not far from here there is another similar bathing spot, formed when boiling lava meets ocean waves. Find the seaside promenade (Avenida Marítima) in the city of Garachico. Next to it, you can go down to the wild rocks along the path and swim in a small oblong pool of sea water.
Punta del Hidalgo
In the town of La Laguna you will find a charming, peaceful sea water pool. The place is called Altagay, right by the pool there is a famous fish restaurant of the same name. This is a man-made pool, which means that you can safely sunbathe on the sides, unlike relaxing in the above natural backwaters, where it is not so easy to find a flat area of lava and stretch out comfortably.
Bajamar
Bajamar is a village near the city of La Laguna. The charming fishing village is known for its tidal pools. Unique baths are carved into the rocks, and the water is renewed every ten minutes with large waves. Therefore, it is cool, especially compared to the comfortable Lago Martinez. The complex consists of two large swimming pools and one small one for children. Here it is good to relax and improve your health with the whole family, catch bright small fish with a net, which the waves bring, and sunbathe. After water procedures, you can have a tasty and inexpensive meal in a nearby cafe. In general, the place has a relaxed family atmosphere.
Ten-Bel
On the south coast of Tenerife, in the town of Las Galletas, there is an artificial swimming pool with free entry. The pool is also filled with sea water, but mostly swimmers train here. The pool is adjacent to the coast, the view from there is traditionally beautiful, and the air is fresh there.
Park Marítimo César Manrique
Let’s finish our review of the sea water pools in the capital of the island (and sometimes the Canary Islands) Santa Cruz.
Here, of course, there is a complex for entertainment in swimsuits – Maritimo Park. Like Lago Martianez, the complex, which occupies 22 sq. km, harmoniously integrated into the landscape of the city and the coast. The entrance to the territory is paid (about 6 euros). Here you will find playgrounds, a jacuzzi, a small artificial beach and sports facilities – all with sea water. In Maritimo Park it is good to celebrate birthdays, relax with the whole family and generally enjoy life.
This is also the work of the architect Cesar Manrique. An entertaining artist and architect born on the neighboring island of Lanzarote has turned it into his personal canvas, an open-air studio! It is thanks to him that Lanzarote has retained its individual style, while Tenerife in places resembles an ordinary American resort. Hot black hardened lava in his hands became like plasticine and obeyed his hands. Manrique has achieved the effect of perfect harmony of his buildings with nature, whether it be water parks or residential buildings, simple garages or art installations. Swimming and sunbathing in the Maritimo Park or Lago Martianez in Tenerife, you will feel this harmony, because nature always reciprocates if you treat it with care.

Having visited Spain more than once, I understand that in Tenerife I found myself in the most unusual and comfortable climate. Here the air literally breathes with a breeze from the ocean, and is pierced through with tiny invisible droplets …. Yes, and Europe here is somehow not the same as usual …. And Spain itself is completely different … The expression “island of eternal Spring” speaks for itself – this is not spring in our understanding, with prolonged rains and wind. It is always +24-25 here, even in the evening, even in rare rains. The unique climatic natural feature of the island creates comfortable conditions for recreation. The water temperature does not drop below +20, so Tenerife is the only place in Europe where you can swim and sunbathe all year round .
Stepping onto the embankment, you literally plunge into a mixture of ocean breeze and waves that bring millions of invisible salty air bubbles and such familiar and beloved aromas of freshly brewed coffee. The promenade seems to be an endless row of cafes, shops on the one hand, and a wall of tall palm trees, through which the magical ocean glows under the insanely beautiful rays of the setting sun, on the other hand. Somewhere in the distance, like a mysterious ship, the mysterious island of La Gomera beckons ….
Such a lost and alive Tenerife: the mountains, approaching the ocean a little, hang fluffy sable collars of clouds on themselves and, literally in a moment, remove them, showing the tops of the craters of the largest volcanoes in the Atlantic. The ocean then lets snow-white “lambs” along the emerald infinity of water, then it beckons into a blue-clean and calm expanse …. Every cell feels the breath of nature, the fullness of life …
The southern part of the island attracts tourists due to the warmer climate and comfortable beaches. Las Americas is considered the main tourist area of the island, small beaches of black volcanic and golden sand intertwine here, small bays with majestic rocks cutting right into the ocean, huge volcanic stones, as if frozen surrealistic figures. On the shore it is nice to bask in the sun, read your favorite books, forget about everything everyday, realizing that you are alone on a small piece of serenity in the middle of the endless Atlantic . …
The northern part of Tenerife attracts with its insanely beautiful landscapes. Here the rocks literally fall with all their black weight into the velvet waters of the ocean. A wetter climate gives the north lush greenery in all its manifestations. You can easily verify this by renting a car and exploring all the lost corners of the island.
Tenerife – rest aimed at peace and serenity, and travel and excursions around the island allow you to learn a lot of new and unknown. Here you can find everything for yourself – excellent service, excellent Spanish cuisine, shopping, open-air discos and a great welcome …. From here you can travel to other islands of the Canary archipelago: La Gomera , Lanzarote ; you can go snorkeling with sea turtles, whale watching, fishing in the Atlantic and much more.
Loro Parque is one of the largest parks in the world, where many species of parrots, penguins are presented, shows with killer whales, dolphins and seals are held, which is very popular with both children and adults.
Mount Teide is the highest peak in Spain and the highest peak in the Atlantic Ocean. Excursion to Teide National Park gives the opportunity not only to enjoy the views of the frozen lava flows and the volcanic landscapes of the volcano, often called lunar landscapes, but also to climb the funicular almost to the very top of Teide at a height of 3555 meters, from where a unique view of Tenerife and all the Canary Islands opens.
Siam Park – is a new themed water park in the style of the ancient Kingdom of Siam, where breathtaking ultra-modern attractions take your breath away. A small journey into the world of exotic will bring pleasure to everyone!
Classic flamenco show – is a burning bright dance passion that penetrates through the soul and body. A performance staged, if not by the Gods, then at least by crazy talented people ….
You don’t have to think of Tenerife as a purely beach island – it’s just not a beach holiday, but, first of all, a great climate for Recreation at any time . Many hotels have pools with sea water, hiking, restaurants with seafood are popular.

Canaries, Tenerife, west coast, beaches and natural pools
11/30/2017, Thursday, day 12. rich program, however, as usual. We plan to drive all over the west coast, see the beaches, with an emphasis on natural pools, walk the trails, see the sights. We decided to carry out this block today because the weather forecast is good for today, it will be clear and warm all day. We leave at 07:30 from the village of Tegueste where we live. From this village we head south. Further, the description of beaches and attractions will go in the order of movement to the south. 1. Natural swimming pool near the Playa de la Arena beach (not to be confused with the Playa de la Arena beach, which is located to the south, to the left on the map in another area). Pool with ocean water in the Mesa del Mar area, in the village of Punta de la Mesa, gps 28.5031071,-16.424303 We followed the signs, a long steep serpentine goes to the beach. Natural swimming pool “cultivated type” with flowing ocean water, concrete, shallow, completely calm. There are wooden decks around the pool. To the left are high-rise hotel buildings. Suitable for small children and people with disabilities. We saw that a man without legs was swimming without outside help. 2. The Rambla del Castro trail.
On the west coast from Mesa del Mar to Cuesta de la Villa along the coast is very green, unusual landscape gives the abundance of greenery growing on the steep slopes to the sea. Trekking trail in a very attractive area through palm trees overlooking the ocean. It is in the Top 10 most beautiful routes in Tenerife. With which we fully agree and recommend that you definitely visit the trail. By TF-5 we reach the parking lot on the right side of the road, next to the restaurant, gps 28.394896,-16.593329. The photo below was taken from the parking lot.
Intermediate points on the track: 28.397254, -16.5
and 28.398879, 16.584668. Finishing point 28.401352, -16.580592. Back – return the same way. Total round-trip 4 km. In time, the Rambla del Castro walk takes 1 hour 45 minutes. There are signs on the trail. The start of the trail is easy to find. When you are at the Rambla del Castro parking lot, go to the door of the restaurant, there will be a path below, you need to follow the signs “Los Rogues”. Before reaching the finish line 1.5 km, we found that the trail was closed for repairs. Getting around the repair was not possible, so I had to return.
The Rambla del Castro trail is easy, pleasant, accessible even to small children. There is fresh water on this part of the coast, so there is a lot of greenery, huge chic palm trees and other trees. You walk through a nice park overlooking the coast. Paradise place.
3. Further along the road on the right, as you drive a little from the Rambla del Castro parking lot, there will be two good lookouts: at the gas station and near the restaurant. Do not miss. 4. Charco de la Laja (Laja) – a nice small natural pool in the rocks of the “wild” type (ie there is no beach infrastructure). Free parking.
A staircase 100 meters long leads to the beach.
It is better to enter the pool on the right, there are steps to go down into the pool. When we were there, there were only a couple of tourists on the beach. There are big crabs and fishes in the pool. 5. Charco del Viento/Charco del Viento – “wild” natural pool gps 28.400191, -16.672905. It’s beautiful, but it’s problematic to enter and it’s better to enter the left bay.
Sunset – stones, but you can get used to it, especially if you have slippers for corals. Some of us were able to swim in this place. Below is a photo from a hillock, to the left of this natural pool
6. San Marcos beach, gps 28.378216, -16.723454. The beach has black sand and small rocks. San Marcos is in a bay, on the right is a small port.
Beach infrastructure available (catering, showers). There is parking both at the bottom of the beach itself and a little higher, there is more parking. Here we are all stingy 🙂
7. Dragon tree, close, best angle – 28.36688,-16.72187
On the way to the Dragon Tree and back, we watch fascinating and dangerous competitions of local daredevil boys who ride planks and plywood like sleds on asphalt, while smashing their bodies on the asphalt “to the meat”. Starting point
Serene father photographing his child at the start
On the track. Below you can see a mountain of tires that acts as a buffer, some racers crash into these tires at such a speed that they fly over them from the impact. Brrr, horror…
8. Next on the way is Garachico. We have already described this natural pool.
9. Los Silos, San Jose, gps 28. 381431,-16.814735. 4 natural, “wild” pools located close to each other, between them there is a primer. We swam in the first pool, the entrance was convenient, we liked the pool very much, it is the most convenient of all four.
You can also swim in the 4th pool, but, in our opinion, it is less convenient.
Further to the left, this is the view
And to the right this view
A whale skeleton is located near the first pool.
From the 1st pool to the 4th 300-400 meters. Nice place for camping and motorhomes. 10. Then you can go to Cape Teno. But we didn’t stop there, turned around and drove back to Tegueste. But we still had time and we went after Tegueste in a northerly direction and there we visited 2 excellent beaches: 11. Bahamar, 5 km. from Tegueste to the north. The best, in our opinion, beach and natural pool in Tenerife. Signs “piscina natural” lead to the natural pool. Parking near the beach. On the left – a beach in the form of a small artificial cove with small waves. To the right is a huge concrete pool with flowing ocean water. You can swim even when the ocean is very rough. For lovers of waves and splashes, there is every opportunity – huge waves crash around the edge of the pool, creating amazing water currents that, if you swim closer, will erupt right at you. But in other parts of the pool – quiet water and you can safely swim. Ladder entry. Behind this pool there is another large pool. Around the pools everything is concreted, there are benches where you can put things to change. A lifeguard is on duty. There is a shower and toilet indoors. The stand shows the actual temperature of water and air.
12. Natural pools of Hidalgo, gps 28.56943,-16.33191. Located 9 km from Tegueste to the north. The most beautiful place. Extreme point in the north, to the lighthouse. Wild natural pools, many baths of different shapes and sizes, from shallow to deep. On the left – the largest pool, a convenient entry along the ladder. There are few people. Since the pools are not located in the bay, a panoramic view of the coast opens up. Behind him are the green mountains of Anaga. You can swim in the evening, the sun is not covered by the mountains. Nice place to watch the sunset. Parking along the embankment, no problem.

We base the humidity comfort level on the dew point, as it determines whether perspiration will evaporate from the skin, thereby cooling the body. Lower dew points feel drier and higher dew points feel more humid. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between night and day, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while the temperature may drop at night, a muggy day is typically followed by a muggy night.
The chance that a given day will be muggy in Lanzarote is rapidly decreasing during November, falling from 26% to 6% over the course of the month.
For reference, on August 31, the muggiest day of the year, there are muggy conditions 58% of the time, while on February 1, the least muggy day of the year, there are muggy conditions 0% of the time.

Lanzarote Weather in November – How Warm & Sunny Will It Be?
The beach in Arrecife in November (not many tourists come here, but it’s a really nice place)
November might not be the warmest month in Lanzarote throughout the year, but it’s definitely sunnier and warmer than the UK and mainland Europe.

Events in November
On most days you can still expect temperatures of up to 24-25°C, so as long as the sun is out you can still sunbathe and swim in the sea. November is one of the more quiet months in Lanzarote, since many people come for a break in October during half term and others will wait until December to come here to spend their winter holidays.
So November is good for a relaxing holiday and will give you the freedom to roam around the island without experiencing long queues anywhere.
Weather in Lanzarote in November
While cold weather is starting to creep up on most European countries, the Canary Islands are still enjoying nice and toasty temperatures during November.
It’s true that even in Lanzarote the chances of rain increase and you might get up to 3 wet days during this month. But it’s still far better than most other places. People who come here with high expectations, thinking that temperatures will still be around 30°C will be disappointed since Lanzarote is not a tropical island like the Caribbean islands.
Lanzarote’s climate is actually a subtropical desert, which still means that it enjoys mild winters, with temperatures around 20°C, just not as hot as some people may think (or want).
But if you want a short-haul warm holiday in winter and you are from Europe, the Canary Islands are your best bet. They are the warmest destination in winter in Europe by far, because technically they are part of the African continent, although politically they part of Spain.
During the daytime in November, you will be perfectly ok in shorts and a T-shirt (you’ll be fine even in a swimsuit), but for nights and evenings, you should pack some long trousers and a jacket, because it can get chilly.
Average temperatures in Lanzarote in November
The average high temperature in November in Lanzarote is around 23- 24°C, while at night you can expect temperatures of around 20°C. While it’s definitely a drop from temperatures in October, the weather during the daytime still allows for sunbathing.
Average high temperature: 24.2°C (75.6°F)
Average low temperature: 17.2°C (63°F)
Daily mean temperature: 20. 7°C (69.2°F)
In Lanzarote, the daily mean temperature is 20.7°C in November, which is calculated as a mean between the average high temperature of 24.2°C and the average low of 17.2°C.
Record low & record high temperatures
The highest temperature ever recorded in Lanzarote in November (at Airport station) was 34.2°C and the lowest was 10.9°C.
Since the island is mostly flat, the temperatures stay pretty much the same across all major resorts in Lanzarote: Puerto del Carmen, Playa Blanca, and Costa Teguise. However, there can be significant differences between resorts, in the sense that while it can be sunny and nice in the south in Playa Blanca, it can be overcast up north and vice versa.
Rainfall
Average rainfall (mm): 15 mm
Average rainy days (>=1mm): 3
November is one of the months that see some rain in Lanzarote, but usually no more than 3 days per month and no more than 15 mm rainfall. There have been some exceptions in the past years, including November 2018, which saw a lot more rain than it’s common for this time of the year.
Sunshine hours
Lanzarote gets an average of 7 hours of sunshine per day in November, so the days are shorter but you’ll still have time to enjoy in the sun.
Sea temperature in November in Lanzarote
Average sea temperature in November in Puerto del Carmen: 21.2°C / 70.2°F
Can you swim in Lanzarote in November?
With an average of 21.2°C / 70.2°F, it is still possible to swim in the ocean in November. However, this the temperature at the water surface, so it totally depends on what is the temperature outside and each person’s tolerance and preference.

Things to do in November
Since in November it is possible that not all days are beach days, here’s our top proposals of what to do in November in Lanzarote.
Fortunately, there are lots of things to see and places to visit, so you will not have time to be bored as long as you are willing to leave your hotel for the day.
Visit Arrieta and Punta Mujeres on the North Coast
If you want to leave the busy resorts for a chilled day, you can drive up north and go to one of the smaller towns that retain their local charm. You have time to stop in Arrieta and Punta Mujeres and you could even go inland to Haria, where there’s a small market on Saturdays.
Go to Rancho Texas in Puerto del Carmen
If it’s a cloudy day, you can reserve the day for a trip to Rancho Texas, the animal park in Puerto del Carmen. This is a great day out for the entire family and on Fridays and Tuesdays, they even have a Country Night with a cowboy parade, a lasso and cabaret show, dinner, and dancing on country music rhythms.

Winter in Lanzarote – Should You Book a Trip?
I actually visited Lanzarote in December.
It is very rare that I book long trips during the earlier part of winter as I reserve them for dreadful February, but this was different.
My winter trip to Lanzarote was pretty dang perfect.
The weather was usually sunny but did have the occasional rain pass through (it never lasted long at all).
There was plenty to do and while I expected most businesses to be shut down during the low season, it was quite the opposite.
Businesses just had shorter hours if anything.
Playa Blanca harbor where you take ferry to Fuerteventura
The tickets, food, hotels, and everything else seemed to be at a discounted rate compared to usual and my wallet appreciated that.
My Lanzarote winter trip was pretty epic, if I do say so myself.
The weather ranges from about 18-22C on average on Lanzarote during the winter months.
There were definitely tourists still there, but most came off of cruise ships so the cities and towns were a bit quieter in the evenings.
It also made for a more personal experience than I would have anticipated during the busier summer months.
Restaurants did not have many people in them and the service was usually exceptional as a result.
I also found the tours had other travelers, but you had a chance to feel like it was a more intimate experience than it would be during the summer months.
All in all, I would most certainly recommend traveling to Lanzarote in winter if you aren’t looking for a holiday of just swimming and sitting by a pool.
Things to Do in Lanzarote During Winter
There are many things to do in Lanzarote during winter and this guide will cover some of the highlights.
Please drop us a comment on additional activities and things if you know of them as it will help future travelers enjoy their time there!
Timanfaya National Park
Learn More about Cesar Manrique
It is literally impossible to visit Lanzarote and not hear about Cesar Manrique, the island’s most famous architect and name, at least one time.
Every single tour I took on the island took me to places that were created by him and gave me the opportunity to learn more about Manrique and his exquisite work.
Another great place to learn about Manrique is at the Cesar Manrique Foundation in Tahiche.
I went there as part of my tour of north Lanzarote and it was a great place to learn more about his life and work that he dedicated to making Lanzarote the awesome travel destination it is today.
Nevertheless, if you don’t have time to visit the Foundation or museums dedicated to him, you can still see his work spread throughout Lanzarote.
Book your Cesar Manrique tour: Full-day Cesar Manrique tour of Lanzarote
You can also take a tour of Lanzarote that focuses solely on Cesar Manrique.
To be honest, my favorite types of architecture lean toward old brutal modernism and I didn’t think the work of anyone today would be of interest to me.
I found Manrique to be extremely enthralling and his work to be a breath of fresh air.
While I didn’t get a chance to take this specific tour, it gets exceptional ratings and it is high on my list for my next trip to Lanzarote.
Click here to check rates and availability for the Cesar Manrique tour of Lanzarote.
Visit La Graciosa
One of my favorite days in the Canary Islands was the day I took a day trip to La Graciosa from Lanzarote.
La Graciosa is technically the newest Canary Island and its landscapes sure are rugged and unique to Lanzarote itself. It is definitely worth a visit!
To reach La Graciosa, you will need to take the 15-minute ferry from Orzola. Orzola is the northernmost town on Lanzarote and is a nice place to relax for a night before taking the ferry the next day.
Book your La Graciosa ferry: Round trip ferry ticket to La Graciosa from Orzola
I found good food and a really nice place to stay there and I could have stayed a few days longer just on that premise. Anyway, La Graciosa is kind of adventurous and kind of chill at the same time.
On La Graciosa, you will likely arrive in Caleta de Sebo, the capital of the island. That is where you’ll find almost everything from food to tour pick-up to hotels and villas.
The town’s origins are in a fish-salting factory that was open there until the middle of the 19th-century. Nowadays, it still feels like a quaint fishing town, however.
Since I was there during the middle of the Lanzarote winter, there weren’t many tourists there at all.
In fact, it felt almost a bit like a desert island in the middle of nowhere that was yet to be discovered (in a good way).
There are a few beaches worth visiting on La Graciosa.
The closest one to Caleta de Sebo is El Salado and it is permitted to camp on the beach if you desire to stay overnight!
Otherwise, I recommend walking 2.5 kilometers to Playa Francesa or an additional 1.5 kilometers from there to Playa de la Cocina.
They offer impressive views of Montana Amarilla and the sand is a gorgeous mixture of colors. It was truly remarkable and breathtaking!
On the island, you can go diving, an activity the island is known for. Click here to check rates and availability for diving in La Graciosa.
Book your trip to La Graciosa with one of these tours or ticket options:
Return ferry ticket to La Graciosa from Orzola with on-board wifi
La Graciosa island cruise with lunch and water activities (pickup from all over island)
6-hour sailing trip to La Graciosa (top-rated with snorkel, swim, kayak options!)
If you get seasick, be sure to bring some pills with you for the ferry ride.
It is only 15-minutes, but when I took it during winter, it was a bit ‘rough’ for my liking! Just a quick note for those traveling there.
Try Lanzarote Cuisine (Especially Stews!)
The food in Lanzarote actually surprised me. I was certain that the island specialized in solely seafood and truthfully, I didn’t really do my research prior to traveling there.
What I discovered was a whole range of delicious dishes that offered seasonal options and everything ranging from stews to octopus salads.
The stews in Lanzarote made for such a fantastic winter dish, to be honest.
While the weather was mild, the evenings could get a little chilly and nothing excited me more than knowing I’d get to order a heaping bowl of a stew of some sort.
Ropa vieja is a common stew you’ll find on the island that is made of chickpeas, a protein, and flavorful broth/sauce.
I saw it on various menus and it almost always was a unique variety which was kind of exciting.
Caldo de millo is also a really delicious corn soup that you’ll see ubiquitously on menus during the cooler months.
Lanzarote’s cuisine is pretty diverse and I highly suggest trying as much of it as you can during your winter trip to Lanzarote!
Explore Lobos Island from Playa Blanca
One of the biggest highlights for me from my trip to Lanzarote and Fuerteventura was visiting Lobos Island.
It is an easy excursion from Corralejo in Fuerteventura, but you can actually take a trip there from Lanzarote, too.
Lobos Island is a sanctuary for rare species of birds and reptiles like lizards and more.
There are several ways to get to Lobos Island and the best way to explore it at your leisure is actually to be based in Corralejo for a day or two.
Corralejo is on Fuerteventura, a short ferry ride away from Lanzarote. However, there are a few tours that are available from Lanzarote to Lobos Island.
One tour we recommend is this dolphin spotting tour that goes to Lobos Island from Lanzarote.
It is a half-day tour that will put you on a boat with an experienced guide as you cruise through the cerulean waters of the Atlantic.
Book your Lobos Island tour: Half-day dolphin spotting tour to Lobos Island from Lanzarote
I really loved Lobos Island and recommend it to everyone visiting Lanzarote or Fuerteventura.
The island can be quite hot, even in winter, so do pack sunscreen and a lot of water with you!
Be sure to stay on the path when hiking and walking around the island as it is illegal to stray off.
Marvel at Papagayo Beach
One of the best things to do in Playa Blanca and Lanzarote, in general, is to visit Papagayo Beach(es).
These beaches are easily one of the most remarkable places in all of Lanzarote and a can’t-miss if you want to see one of the best natural sights there.
You may hear of this beach referred to as one or as many. In fact, it is a total of about five beaches- Playa de Afe, Playa de Mujeres, Playa Pozo, Playa de Afe, and Playa de la Cera.
These are referred to as the Papagayo Beaches and you can actually walk from one to another if you have it in you!
The beaches remain a bit secluded and offer a quiet and relaxing day, but getting a taxi there from Playa Blanca can cost you upwards of $60 or so.
Book your trip to the Papagayo Beaches with one of these tours:
Catamaran cruise to the Papagayo Beaches (unlimited bar included in price!)
Half-day chill out cruise to Papagayo Beach on Lanzarote
As a result, we recommend taking a tour there if you’re adhering to a tighter budget.
A few tours are available, and they all run in winter.
Amenities at Papagayo are lacking so bring your own towels, beach chairs, etc.
The beaches are top-rated for activities, however. It is great for swimming, snorkeling, and water sports!
Go Dolphin Spotting
Another popular Lanzarote winter activity is dolphin spotting.
This has become a popular thing to do there because dolphins are very prevalent in the winter whereas, in many other places, they are not.
Sometimes, if you’re lucky, you can also see whales on cruises and spotting boats… but dolphins are much more likely to be seen.
The recommended way to see dolphins in Lanzarote is by joining a sunset cruise or a boat trip.
This sunset cruise lasts for 2.5 hours and will take you out for Champagne (included in price) on a boat to check out the sunset and the dolphins calling the local waters home.
It is a highly recommended tour for those visiting Lanzarote in winter or summer!
Alternatively, you can join a daytime tour to go and see the Lanzarote dolphins.
This 1.5-hour cruise will take you out to sea to check out the local dolphins and also give you time to swim or snorkel.
Take a Ride through Timanfaya National Park
If someone asks me what I think of when I think of my time in Lanzarote, it would definitely be Timanfaya National Park and its lunar-like scenery.
I was completely blown away at how stunning the landscapes were and how obscure absolutely mind-blowing it was. I genuinely thought this kind of scenery only existed on Mars!
Unfortunately, Timanfaya National Park is rather protected so you can’t just rock up and stroll throughout it at your own leisure. It is still a potentially dangerous place… so, fair enough!
But, everyone visiting Lanzarote should still get a chance to see Timanfaya and the best way to do so is to join a tour to it.
Book your trip to Timanfaya National Park with one of these top-rated tours:
Volcanoes of Timanfaya, camel ride (optional), caves, and lunch (bestseller!)
Timanfaya National Park, cave of Cueva de los Verdes, and Jameos del Agua tour
Fire mountains in southern Lanzarote tour (half-day)
Volcanoes and caves: Full-day tour of Lanzarote
While the tour I joined was not my favorite one I’ve ever been on, I understood that the park can not just allow visitors to stroll through it.
As a result, the tour was mostly inside of a bus. Nevertheless, it was SO worth seeing this scenery with my own eyes and it was truly one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen.
If you’re an active traveler, you will have the chance to experience the National Park by hiking, if you wish!
I wish I had booked this experience, personally, as it would have allowed me to get up close and personal with Timanfaya and the volcanoes, but there’s always next time!
This hiking tour of Timanfaya National Park can be booked through our partners at Adrenaline Hunter and it is highly, highly recommended for those wanting to not be in a vehicle to see the park!
In addition, they will provide transportation for you if you can’t get to the meeting point yourself.
Attend the Saborea Lanzarote (Savour Lanzarote) Wine and Gastronomic Festival
The Saborea Lanzarote Enogastronomic Festival is an event that takes place at the end of every November and it is the largest gastro event in the Canary Islands.
The greatest thing about this event is that it puts local ingredients center-stage and really highlights them and focuses on the regional destination as well as the product itself.
The Lanzarote event brings people from all over the island and the world together to celebrate new concepts, traditional ingredients, and much more.
You will find masterclasses, lectures from international chefs, workshops, children-friendly activities and exhibitions, and more.
There is even a cooking contest that has amateur chefs from the island’s different regions cooking off against each other!
If you’re heading to Lanzarote in November, definitely check it out! It is held in Teguise and is a one-of-a-kind event!
Visit Costa Teguise With the Family
This gorgeous beach resort boasts a subtropical climate, making it warm as the rest of Lanzarote even in the winter months!
The temperatures in colder months like January are warm without being too hot, making it the perfect experience for those who don’t enjoy the sweltering heat or for those who are traveling with little ones.
One of the most popular destinations is Aquapark, the island’s largest waterpark. Ticket prices range between 13 and 26 euros, and entrance is free for babies.
Costa Teguise also boasts hotels with kids clubs, so you and your significant other can enjoy the island’s nightlife and other beach-side adventures!
Check Out the Green Lagoon in El Golfo
One of Lanzarote’s most unique attractions is the green lagoon in the fishing village of El Golfo.
It’s spectacular in person and can look different depending on the time of the day you visit. In fact, some say that it looks even greener if you visit on a cloudy day.
The lagoon is green due to the type of algae that grows in it. Green Lake was formed in the crater of a volcano and is surrounded by stunning volcanic rocks in the background.
It’s considered a natural reserve, so it is not possible to swim in the lake, but it’s definitely a spot worth visiting!
What to Pack for the Lanzarote Winter
To be honest, it really depends on what you plan on doing in Lanzarote during the winter that determines what to pack!
I found the evenings chilly and the days to be super comfortable.
I am American and am used to a hotter climate, however. If you’re coming from the UK or Northern Europe, you may find the temperatures still quite hot despite being a winter sun destination in Europe.
I had a denim jacket for the evening and wore pants every day while there. I didn’t swim as I found it slightly too cold to do so. However, I did see people at some of the beaches near Playa Blanca and on Lobos Island.
I would advise hiking boots for those looking to trek a little as the sands are volcanic and very harsh on the feet!
Best Lanzarote Tours
There are heaps of awesome tours you can take on Lanzarote, especially during the winter months.
I took a couple with Get Your Guide when I was there and they were fantastic introductions to the island!
For the more adventurous traveler, you also can hook up with some Adrenaline Hunter tours when there.
They specialize in exciting activities and Lanzarote has no shortage of such.
Below are our top tour recommendations on Lanzarote- covering the needs of all types of travelers!
Volcanoes of Timanfaya, caves, camel ride (bestseller!)
Cesar Manrique full-day tour of Lanzarote
6-hour sailing trip to La Graciosa with snorkel, swim, and kayak options (bestseller!)

Sunset and dolphins cruise of Lanzarote (Champagne included)

Where to Stay in Lanzarote
I stayed in three different places in Lanzarote. The first place I stayed at was at a beautiful flat in Orzola as I used it as a base to get to and from La Graciosa.
The second place I stayed was in Arrecife. I stayed there several nights and it served as a fantastic base to explore the island with tours.
And the last place I stayed was in Playa Blanca as I needed a chilled-out break and a place to use as a launchpad for eventually taking the ferry to Fuerteventura.
I opted for apartments for Orzola and Playa Blanca but stayed at a nice hotel/hostel in Arrecife. Below are the three places I stayed and recommend:
Casa Salinas Playa (Orzola apartment)
Hostal San Ginas (hostel and hotel I stayed at – budget option!)
Playa Blanca Marcastell (Playa Blanca apartment)
I hope this guide encouraged you to book a trip to Lanzarote in winter.
While it may not offer tropical temperatures, the climate is warm enough to get some sun and enjoyable temperatures during the colder months.
I traveled to Lanzarote in December, but I think any time of the year you visit will give you a fantastic holiday!

Most days in Lanzarote are warm and you will see many people around the beaches and the pools. You certainly won’t mind the odd cloudy spell every now and again, and most hotels and resorts are equipped with lots of fun and entertainment activities indoors. During the day the temperatures are warm around 24 to 26°C, though sometimes there may be cool winds blowing, you definitely won’t want to forget to take along your swimsuit, sunscreen and flip flops. Evenings can be a little cold, so carrying a fleece or a light jacket along is good, and a quiet stroll along the beach every night is awesome, and at night can get a little colder reaching lows of 16°C.
But is Lanzarote hot in November?
Let’s face it is hotter than the UK and Ireland and you can still get sunburned so if the question is Lanzarote hot in November we say yes hot but mild! it can be it depends on what you are used to. We certainly recommend packing suncream as the weather in Lanzarote in November can vary and while it may look cloudy the UV rays are still shining through the clouds. But come sun or cloud there are so many things to do in lanzarote whatever the weather.
With the weather in Lanzarote in November, what clothes should you pack?
All the usual clothes should be on your list for the days in Lanzarote, certainly swimming clothes, shorts T-shirts and general summer clothes, we would, however, suggest packing something warm for the evening, a hoody, cardigan, you won’t need your full-on winter coat. Socks are always a good one to keep your feet warm at night, hotels won’t have heating its not needed neither do they provide quilts but most have warm blankets. You won’t go wrong picking one or two warmer outfits but you probably won’t need them.
How cold is the sea with the Lanzarote weather in November?
The average sea temperature in Lanzarote in November is around 18.6°C, it is a shock getting in but it will be warmer than most pools if you are in a hotel or apartment with no heated pool. November in Lanzarote is a lovely time of the year and you can even get yourself out on one of the many Lanzarote boat trips. If your pool is not heated fear not because in Lanzarote one of the two water parks opens all year round and their pools certainly take the chill off and you can have loads of fun on the slides and rides at the same time at the Playa Blanca waterpark Aqualava waterpark Lanzarote. They offer a bus service from Costa Teguise and Puerto Del Carmen also.
Things to do in Lanzarote in November
Like all months there are so many things to do in lanzarote and as November is a relatively quiet month although are plenty of events you will find most of the Lanzarote attractions will be peaceful. There will still be long waiting times at Timanfaya National Park so we always recommend taking one of the Timanfaya National Park tours as they will have priority entrance at the park. The Rancho Texas Park is of course open 365 days of the year and is a great day out for the whole family and there is also the Buggies Lanzarote tours which also have quads and trikes too and this is a great way to see the island.
Lanzarote Marathon: This is one of the most popular sporting events on the island with athletes running through the streets of Arrecife in the most mild weather of November across the beautiful volcanic landscape.
Like any other month November also is for festivals like the All Saints Day celebrated across Lanzarote fervently. The Fiesta in Tao on November 13 is also a notable event.

PLAYA BLANCA IN LANZAROTE, ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW
Playa Blanca is located in the southern part of Lanzarote on the Canary Islands. Although a quiet and peaceful fishing village not too long ago, Playa Blanca changed a lot over the years and became one of the main tourists area in Lanzarote.
Indeed, in ten years only this region has experienced a big rise for tourism. This growth can be explained by the proximity of Playa Blanca to a sublime coastline, its sunny sandy beaches and its idyllic setting. At the seafront there are many bars, luxury hotels, restaurants and shops. A real gem in Lanzarote!
Playa Blanca is located at about 30km from Lanzarote airport. One of the city’s latest addition is the Marina Rubicon. This area is found on the outskirts of the town not far from great restaurants and clothing shops. This area is luxurious and very pleasant with a state of the art Marina.
In this post we will let you know about what to do in Playa Blanca, the best places to stay and our overall opinion about Playa Blanca.
If you want to know more about Lanzarote, you can also check out the 25 best things to do on the island here. We also compiled the list of the top 10 beaches in Lanzarote here.
1. Check out the main beach, Playa Blanca
The name of Playa Blanca comes from the fact that in the middle of the city there is the main beach called Playa Blanca (located here). The beach is very beautiful with fine sands and quiet water. It’s the perfect spot to spend the day with the family.
However this is not our favorite beach in Playa Blanca. It is much smaller than the other ones in Playa Blanca. So we recommend 2 other beaches in Playa Blanca, check out the rest of the post to know more about it.
2. Playa Flamingo
Playa Flamingo is our favorite beach in Playa Blanca. It is much bigger than Playa Blanca and protected by breakwater. There are a few restaurants and shops right behind the beach, but it’s relatively quieter that Playa Blanca.
We recommend this beach if you are in Playa Blanca. This is one of the best beaches in Lanzarote.
Location: here
3. Playa Dorada
The last beach located in the center of Playa Blanca is called Playa Dorada. This beach is equally beautiful as Playa Flamingo. The great popularity of this beach is due to its locations near many hotels and because of the beautiful Caribbean-like water. An absolute pleasure for the eyes.
Location: here
4. Marina Rubicon
Marina Rubicón is one of the most complete marinas in Lanzarote. Set between Papagayo beach and Playa Blanca, Marina Rubicón is well protected from the strong winds. There are many really nice restaurants and bars facing the marina. It’s a great place to go in the evening.
There is also a market which takes place every Wednesday and Saturday with handicrafts items.
This place is a must-see if you travel to Lanzarote.
Location: here
Website: here
5. The underwater Museum
Museo Atlántico is the first underwater museum in Europe. It might not be for everyone, but Museo Atlántico is an underwater attraction unique in Europe and located just off the coast of Playa Blanca.
You can go underwater to see the beautiful statues, which have started to attract marine life and in doing so have revived the ecosystem around this part of the island of Lanzarote. If you love scuba diving, don’t miss this great experience in Playa Blanca!
Location: here
Website: here
6. Stroll along the waterfront promenade
Our favorite activity in Playa Blanca is to take long walks along the seafront promenade. You can actually walk for hours if you decide to go all the way to the west coast. There you will reach the Lighthouse called Faro de Punta Pechiguera Antiguo (location: here)
We love having lunch or dinner in one of the fish restaurants facing the sea. Order a paella or the fresh fish of the day, you won’t be disappointed. Our favorite area is behind beach Playa Blanca here. If you go one street parallel, you can also find many shops.
7. Aqualava Waterpark
This is an attraction that will delight the little ones. So if you are staying in Playa Blanca and you are looking for an activity to do with the family, Aqualava Waterpark would be a great choice. This water park has all you need for a full day of joy.
Location: here
Opening Hours: 10AM–5PM
Website: here
Admission: buy your ticket at cheaper price here.
Photo from Aqualava website.
8. Los Charcones
Los Charcones are natural swimming pools formed into the rocks. You can also swim in those pools or go snorkelling. It is advisable to be careful during your visit because the landscape of the site is covered with pebbles. This could be dangerous for children. However the area is really beautiful.
To get there you will need a car or to rent a bicycle. Hiking there from Playa Blanca is feasible, but it is not the nicest area to hike in Lanzarote.
Location: here
9. Los Hervideros
This site is one of the most beautiful places to visit in Lanzarote. You can see huge waves crashing onto the cliffs. To get there you will need a car, as it relatively far away from Playa Blanca. It is also a fantastic spot to watch sunset.
Location: here
Entrance: free
10.Visit Playa Papagayo
Papagayo is considered one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. It is located in a wild area on the southern tip, where you can find stretches of golden sand and turquoise water. To enjoy the wild beaches of Papagayo, you can access by car on a dirt road, by bicycle, on foot or by boat.
The term Papagayo beach is often used to describe the whole area. But the actual Papagayo beach is the last beach in the area which is a nice cove that seems to close in, creating a protected area (which is great when it’s windy). However there are other beautiful beaches in the area. You can discover them all in one day.
Our trip to Papagayo beach was one of the highlight during our stay in Lanzarote.
Location: here
For more information about Papagayo Beach, check out our full post here.
11. Take a boat trip from Playa Blanca
There are many boat tour starting from Playa Blanca. Some will sail around Playa Papagayo and stay there for a few hours. They provide lunch and many other equipments such as snorkels, kayaks or Stand-up Paddle boards. You can check it out here.
12. Take a day trip to Fuerteventura
Fuerteventura is the sister island of Lanzarote. It is only located 30min away from Lanzarote. There are many things to do in Fuerteventura which is more wild than Lanzarote.
Fuerteventura, with the red color of its land, its beaches as far as the eye can see, its blue and green waters, big waves, its arid landscape, is nicknamed “the African island”.
With the ferry (which you can book here) you will arrive in Corralejo, the second city of the island which was originally a small fishing village. Today, it is a tourist hotspot of Fuerteventura, where the famous dunes of the Natural Park of Corralejo – El parque natural de Corralejo – are located.
This site offers a paradisiacal arid landscape made up of the erosion of shells and other marine organisms: a small Sahara where you can find wide open spaces and tranquility. The dunes are bordered by sublime beaches of fine white sand. It’s a favorite ground for lovers of windsurfing, surfing, kitesurfing and also nudists.
Strolling there on foot along the ten kilometers of beaches and dunes is one of the essentials when visiting Fuerteventura.
The ferry leaves from Lanzarote every 30min or 1h. You can catch the ferry here. There are 3 different companies to choose from, you can book your ticket online here.
Here we listed the 25 best things to see in Fuerteventura, check it out.
14. Best activities in Playa Blanca
1. Scuba Diving
Start your vacation in Lanzarote with a scuba diving session. This is an opportunity to discover the island’s marine world. The island offers a great diversity of underwater species. To discover the best diving spots, leave from Playa Blanca or Puerto del Carmen.
If you’ve never scuba-dived before, a guide will explain the right steps to take to swim underwater. If you are already an expert and have your PADI, you will be able to rent equipment to explore the depths of the Atlantic.
To book, click here
2. Jetski
If you have never tried Jetski before, Lanzarote is a good place to try. You can rent a Jetski directly on the beach of Playa Dorada or you can also book here.
3. Dolphins watching tour
There are many dolphins around the Canary Islands. You can join a mini cruise to see them. Check it out here.
4. Kayak and Snorkelling trip
If you want to explore the sea in a complete different way, join a kayak tour which also offer snorkelling opportunity around Papagayo beach. You can find out more about it here.
Where to stay in Playa Blanca?
Hotel The Volcan Lanzarote
If your budget allows, then we highly recommend Hotel The Volcan in Playa Blanca. This hotel is located right by Marina Rubicon with many restaurants and bars around. The beach is just a few minutes walk. This hotel has a very large swimming pool and offer excellent breakfast. You can check it out here.
Iberostar
This hotel has a breathtaking view, directly facing the ocean. Iberostar has 3 large swimming pool, including 1 dedicated for kids only. The beach is located just a few minutes walk from the hotel. In front of the hotel, you have the famous Playa Blanca promenade with restaurants and bars along the way. We absolutely love this place. You can book here.
Ona Las Casita
If you are a little bit more on a budget, then we recommend Ona Las Casita. This lovely bungalow is perfectly located near the beach and the main promenade at Playa Blanca. The bungalow has a kitchen, so you can cook at home to save a bit of money. The place was super clean when we stayed there and we ate pretty much every day on the outdoor terrace. We love this place which has the perfect value for money. Book it here.
For other areas to stay in Lanzarote check out this post. We list the top places to stay on the island.
Our favorite restaurants in Playa Blanca
Casa Joaquín: right behind Playa Flamingo, you can find Casa Joaquín, a great spanish restaurant with amazing paella on the menu. This restaurant is directly facing the beach in a very nice setting. During lunch time they offer lighter meal such as Tuna Salad or a variety of sandwiches. Location: here
Restaurante Playa Blanca: for the best Sangria in Playa Blanca, head to Restaurante Playa Blanca here. We tried their tapas with 1L of Sangria. We absolutely loved it although we could barely walk home after all that Sangria…
Playa Dorada Lanzarote: for the perfect sunset drink, head to Playa Dorada Bar and Restaurant right behind Playa Dorada. It’s the go-to spot to watch sunset. Location: here
Our opinion about Playa Blanca
If you are wondering where to stay in Lanzarote, we highly recommend Playa Blanca. For us it the best spot on the island. Although it is touristic, Playa Blanca kept a certain charm. The hotels are relatively small and blend nicely with the rest of Lanzarote. The coast is also beautiful with a fabulous seafront promenade.
In addition Playa Blanca is located near some of the main attractions such as Timanfaya National Park, the wine road, El Golfo, Playa Papagayo etc.. It is also the starting point to check out Fuerteventura and an awesome diving spot.
Stay in Playa Blanca or at least come and visit during your stay in Lanzarote, you won’t regret it.

THINGS TO DO IN LANZAROTE PLAYA BLANCA (AND BEYOND)
The Canary Islands are the perfect destination for a family holiday. Whether you are travelling with kids or alone there are plenty of things to do in Lanzarote near Playa Blanca and around the compact Island. And Playa Blancahas regular Ferries to Fuerteventura meaning you have another one of the Canaries to explore right on your doorstep.
Lanzarote is my top pick of the Canary Islands. Read on to find out why.
1. Playa Flamingo Beach
With it’s white sand beache and crystal clear waters Playa Flamingo is one of the best beaches on Lanzarote. The beach is protected by a breakwater on both sides keeping the waters calm and providing shelter from the wind. Fish can be seen in the clean waters and it is a perfect place to try snorkeling.
Sunbeds are available for hire and there is also room to sit on the sand and build sandcastles. A number of restaurants sit above the beach on the promenade and there is a well stocked supermarket here too if you want to have a budget friendly picnic.
You can reach Playa Flamingo by biking or walking from Playa Blanca down the sea front promenade. By car you can park on the street and access the walkway from either side of the Tui Flamingo Beach Resort.
2. Playa Blanca Beach
This is the main beach from which the area gets it’s name. The small beach is very central and just off the main streets of Playa Blanca. It is a pleasant and popular beach and because of this can be busy at times.
3. Playa Dorada Beach
Playa Dorado beach is east of Playa Blanca and still very central. There are more watersports options here as well as fitness equipment perched up the cliff over looking the beach, an incredibly picturesque place to have a workout.
There are sunbeds for hire as well as many options for meals and refreshments.4. Walk the Playa Blanca Promenade.
The almost 10 km paved walk-way runs from Faro de Pechiguera light house in the west all the way through Playa Blanca and past Marina Rubicon in the East. The pedestrian only path is easily accessible for walkers and runners as well as for push-chairs, wheel-chairs and bikes.
The path runs along the waterfront. Heading westward craggy black volcanic cones can be seen to the right with rocking beaches to the left. Pedestrians heading East will pass sandy beaches and have a view across the ocean to nearby Fuerteventura.
There are plenty of places along the promenade to stop for refreshments or a meal. The walk can be extended further by taking the un-paved path all the way to Playa Papagayo.
5. Timanfaya National Park
Timanfaya is the largest national park on Lanzarote. The volcanic park was created during a huge eruption in between 1730 and 1736, Lava flows covered the landscape in think black rock. The area is still active today and the Mars-like landscape can be visited on bus.
Buses leave from the main visitor centre, the carpark can get full during peak times so it is best to visit before 11am or after 2pm. Around the visitors centre you will also see geysers and food being cooked over the heat of the earth.
6. Cueva De Los Verdes
This cave formed by a Lava tube can be visited as part of a guided tour. The multilingual guide will take you 1km into the cave with an interesting commentary about the history and geography of the area.
7. Papagayo
Papagayo is west of Playa Blanca and can be reached by car or by walking around the coastline. The beaches here are more secluded and less touristy, although also popular with nudists.
8. Visit the Sand dunes in Fuerteventura
Regular Ferries make the short trip from Playa Blanca to the seaside port town of Corralejo in Fuerteventura. While there is public transport on the Island the quicker and more convenient way to visit some of the sights is to hire a car. Cicar car hire has an office at the ferry terminal. I love that everything is included in the price, full insurance, GPS and kids car seats all come as part of the fee, no hidden costs and super quick pick up and drop off.
Just South of the town of Corralejo you’ll find the 11km sand dunes of Parque Natural de las Dunas de. The fine yellow sand stretches on one side of the road down to the azure waters of the ocean. On the other towards the volcanic landscape in the distance.
The blue flag beach is patrolled by lifeguards and its calm waters are inviting for swimmers. The is an area for windsurfing and kite-boarding.
With kilometers of sand there is plenty of space to lay and enjoy the serenity and beauty of the area, small brick shelters along the beach provide some protection from the persistent wind.
Venture across the road and away from the beach to be even more secluded and even spot some of the wildlife, lizards, rabbits, goat and camels can be seen here.
Local companies run horse-riding, camel-riding and quad biking around the dunes and along the beach.
A regular bus runs to the dunes. As the dunes are so large it is best to take your own water and snacks if you plan to spend some time there.
One of the main reasons we visited Lanzarote was for some winter sun. Lanzarote turned out to be so much more than just a sunshine holiday and we fell in love with this Island.
Before we visited the Canary Islands all I had heard was that they were touristy, tacky and windy. Well it was windy at times but Lanzarote was far from touristy and the Island has done an excellent job of preserving its heritage and protecting itself from over development (Fuerteventura didn’t do so well in this regard).
Full of Spanish culture, beautiful beaches, dramatic volcanic landscapes and endless ocean it was the perfect holiday destination especially for an active family like ours.

BEACHES OF PLAYA BLANCA
The name of the resort Playa Blanca is translated from Spanish as “White Beach”. Partly it is. Three main beaches within the city limits will delight tourists with light sand and calm waves, while a significant part of the six-kilometer coastline of the resort is occupied by rocks.
In the very center of the resort, in the so-called “old village” there is a natural beach, the name of which obviously did not take long to come up with – 1 Playa Blanca . The beach is quite small and not very interesting. Well, except for the fact that you can be on it just by taking one step from the restaurant table on the busy embankment. But to the east of it is a spacious beach 2 Playa Dorada , well protected by breakwaters. Everything is already here, like on a real beach: umbrellas and sun loungers, water activities, walking hand in hand along the surf line.
A similar beach, only smaller, is located in the western part of Playa Blanca and is called 3 Playa Flamingo . It is also fenced off from the ocean by breakwaters, man-made and has a traditional set of services.
015 You can get to Playas de Papagayo either on foot from Playa Blanca or by car on a dirt road. The beaches are located on the territory of the natural park, therefore, tourists will have to pay for entry by car – 3 € for four wheels. But the locals swim and sunbathe for free.
Playas de Papagayo is without a doubt the jewel of the island. Coves with emerald water, light sand, picturesque surroundings, no signs of urbanization. Although there are good private beaches within the city limits of all the main resorts of Lanzarote, many people prefer to come here. Which, however, is not at all surprising.
FKK The customs on the beaches of Playas de Papagayo are democratic, that’s why they are “wild”: it’s not customary to force anyone only in two bays to the right and left of the cliff with a cafe. For more information (in English) see here.

Playa Blanca – Photo and description of the resort
The Canary Islands have long been among tourists and not only popular. Not in vain, many people have the question: “where would you like to relax?” the answer would be “in the Canaries”. Lanzarote is one of the islands of the archipelago. So if the dream is the Canary Islands, then welcome to one of the resorts of Lanzarote – Playa Blanca.
Once it was a small village of fishermen. Today, in its place is a chic resort. Playa Blanca is the third largest tourist center of the island. He began to build up not so long ago. Building is going on now.
The resort is located at the southernmost point of the island.
Transport connection
On the island of Lanzarote, where Playa Blanca is located, there is an airport. There are no non-stop flights from Moscow. You can fly directly from the capital of Russia to the Canary Islands only with a landing in Tenerife. And this option will not be the worst, because between the islands of the Canary archipelago, the communication of local airlines is quite developed. You can still get to Gran Canaria, from where Lanzarote should also have a direct flight to Tenerife.
{module AviasalesInText}
Not very popular, but there is another option to be on a sunny Spanish island: make a transfer in one of the European cities. Flights to Lanzarote follow from Amsterdam, London, Berlin, Madrid, etc.
The airport is located 5 km from the capital of the island. You can get from the landing site to Arrecife (the capital of the island) by bus, and from there to Blanca by taxi.
Climate
The Canary Islands are notable for the fact that you can relax here all year round. This resort is no exception. However, the best time to visit is the end of July – October. Lanzarote is located close to the African continent, and therefore is dominated by the trade winds. And in the summer it is especially noticeable. In addition, from time to time harmattan waves come from the Sahara – with this wind, the heat of the desert is felt on the island, often along with sand.
The coldest months fall at the beginning of the year, when the thermometer shows 17-19 degrees. At the peak of the season, the air warms up to 25-27 degrees. In the high season, the water temperature in the ocean is 23-24 degrees, in the low season – 18-19 degrees.
Hotels
The resort is pleased to offer tourists a variety of accommodation options. You can stay in a hotel, apartment, villa – there are 162 options to choose from. And the level of service is high. At the same time, it practically does not depend on the number of stars on the facade. Excellent reviews are left by travelers about both 4- and 5-star hotels, as well as those of a lower level. For example, Bungalows Coloradamar, Iberostar Lanzarote Park are popular among tourists.
If you want to splurge, then the 5-star Princesa Yaiza Suite Hotel Resort, Hesperia Playa Dorada, h20 Lanzarote Princess from the 4 * category will be just an excellent option. The h20 White Suites boutique hotel is very interesting, but it should be considered only if the holiday is planned without children.
Overview of the beach area
There are six beaches in the resort. There are three within the city limits. The total complexity of the equipped beach area is 655 meters. It includes Playa Blanka (100m), Playa Flamingo (225m), Playa Dorada (300m). Bathing on them will be calm and serene. The waves are small, which contributes to a comfortable stay, including with children. Light sand on all three justifies the name of the entire resort.
In the city center is Playa Blanka. The beach is quite small in size, its width is only 20m. Not equipped with sun loungers and umbrellas. In fact, it’s just an embankment, where it is constantly crowded and noisy. It fits the expression: at hand, because you can find yourself on the beach, taking only one step from the cafe, where you just drank a cocktail or ate ice cream.
Two other beaches are much more spacious. The width of Playa Flamingo, which is located in the western part of the city, is 40 meters. To the east is Playa Dorada with a width of 35m. Both have a full range of recreation services – sun loungers, umbrellas, water activities, walking paths, etc.
Three more beaches are not equipped with beach attributes at all, so they are not in demand among tourists. Playa Los Colorados does not receive attention either. But the “wild” Playas de Papagayo are considered the real highlight of the island and the Playa Blanka resort in particular. This is a chain of several beaches, each with its own name. The lack of civilization leaves an imprint on pastime: hunters rush here to sunbathe in what my mother gave birth to. Only two places – on both sides of the cliff, at the foot of which there is a cafe – a territory where you can not force.
Infrastructure
There are restaurants, bars, cafes and shops along the entire length of the embankment. The embankment is wide enough, so there are plenty of places for shopping. Among the attractions are the 18th century fort – Castillo de las Coloradas.
The lack of crowds of tourists and noisy new establishments contribute to a quiet and relaxing holiday, so it is suitable for families with children. It is from this resort of the island that the ferry leaves for Fuerteventura, where you can go diving.
October can be called the velvet season, when precipitation is not expected, air and water temperatures are high, which allows you to fully enjoy all the delights of a beach holiday.

There are no direct flights to this amazing island from our country, but if you get to Madrid or Barcelona and take the time to fly to the capital of the island of Lanzarote – Arrecife, your efforts will be fully rewarded. Possible inconvenience during the transfer and the time spent in the airliner’s seat – everything will be erased as soon as you find yourself in this fabulous place.
Lunar landscapes will captivate you from the first moment.
Lanzarote is a reserve of volcanoes. The combination of beaches, modern civilization and a range of volcanic cones cannot leave indifferent even the most sophisticated travelers.
So, after landing, getting to your destination will not be difficult – bus service between the resort places of Lanzarote is well established. It is also convenient to move around the island by renting a car.
Kitchen and restaurants
Island cuisine is a combination of Spanish spice and Mexican spiciness, invariable seafood and British breakfast rolls. For every taste you can find a menu in Lanzarote. If you want to taste traditional Canarian dishes, the best choice is to visit the restaurant “Volcan de la Corona”.
Grilled fresh meat and fragrant vegetables, all kinds of stews – all with a view of the Corona volcano.
Cozy, homely, with a patio – you will return to this establishment more than once.
For lovers of Mediterranean cuisine who want to taste luxuriously cooked seafood, dinner at Isla de Lobos will be a real gastronomic shock. But don’t forget to book a table at this exclusive venue and make sure you dress appropriately.
If you’re staying in Puerto del Carmen or you’re on a tour there, stop by for a pizza bite at Caffe Italia Pizzeria – you won’t regret it.
Lanzarote Attractions
The island itself is a tourist attraction. As a result of numerous lava eruptions, it is completely devoid of flora, but three hundred volcanic peaks and colored fields of solidified lava make such a strong impression that you can be sure that you will not forget this place in a lifetime.
You can enjoy these views in full in the Timanfaya National Reserve, which is located in the western part of the island.
The Cueva de los Verdes cave is a must to visit. Formed as a result of an eruption and having a depth of 6 km, it is a unique monument of nature. And in one of its halls there is a concert hall – natural acoustics strikes the imagination of visitors.
The cactus garden will be interesting for both children and adults. You will not see such bizarre plants anywhere in the world.
Entertainment
As on any island, all kinds of water sports are popular on Lanzarote. Windsurfing, snorkelling, scuba diving, as well as other types of active pastime: hang gliding, karting, golf, horseback riding – all these and other types of recreation are developed in Lanzarote.
And if you are lucky enough to visit Lanzarote at the end of June, on International Surfing Day (24.06) an unforgettable performance awaits you.
In addition, the island has four large entertainment centers where you can spend time with the whole family.
The Canary Island of Lanzarote is a unique place, and if you happen to be there, the desire to return there will not leave you until you realize it.
Lanzarote – an island in the Canary Islands, province of Las Palmas
A place that combines mesmerizing volcanic landscapes, innumerable opportunities for outdoor activities, amazing Mediterranean cuisine – this is one of the islands of the Canary archipelago – Lanzarote.
The unique atmosphere of Lanzarote is fundamentally different from the tropical paradise reigning on other islands of the Canary archipelago. Its volcanic landscapes evoke strong associations of being on another planet or in a fantasy world inhabited by unknown inhabitants. And the majority is sights of Lanzarote only reinforce the initial impressions. The most famous place on the island is Timanfaya – a national park that amazes tourists with lunar-Martian landscapes and an incredible number of volcanoes located in a small area. Few people will be left indifferent by a lunch in a restaurant above the mouth of a volcano and a fire show arranged for visitors. The legacy of ancient eruptions are the inimitable galleries of the underground caves of Los Verdes and Jameos, whose bizarre forms frighten and fascinate. The skill of the legendary architect Cesar Manrique turned one of them into a unique natural and architectural complex with an artificial lagoon and an underground concert hall. Other creations of the master are no less interesting: the Mirador del Rio observation deck, a luxurious cactus garden and the former architect’s house, harmoniously integrated into the volcanic landscape.
The Canary Islands have long been rightfully considered a place of elite recreation. The islands are washed by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean and consist of 7 large and several small islands.
Island of Volcanoes
The fourth largest island in the Canary archipelago Lanzarote is called the “island of volcanoes” . It is complex, like a bizarre mosaic, of unique multi-tiered caves, beaches, plantations of vineyards, cacti and, of course, the sun. Scientists suggest that the age of the island is approximately 15 million years. This is the easternmost island of the Canarian archipelago, located about 125 km from the coast of Africa and 1000 km from the Iberian Peninsula.
The island got its name from the Genoese merchant Lancelotto Malocello, who arrived on the island in the 14th century. The coastline of the island stretches for 213 km, of which 10 km are covered with sand, and the rest is a rocky coast. The beach is located at 16.5 km. Extravagant mountain ranges were formed after numerous eruptions and lava flows that spread along the slopes, giving them bizarre shapes.
The demon is the emblem of the island . This is explained by the fact that the first inhabitants of the island perceived the volcanic eruptions as the work of the devil. The largest recorded eruptions occurred between 1730 and 1736.
During 2.053 days of eruptions, lava covered ¼ of the surface of the entire island, including the most fertile soil, and buried 11 villages under it. The island was actually deprived of forest cover and only succulents and lichens managed to take root in Lanzarote. The drought that affected the island in 1768 and the lack of rain during the winter led to the emigration of the population to America and Cuba.
The next volcanic eruption occurred in 1824, but in terms of its strength it was less destructive than the main one. But it also led to the exodus of the indigenous population. Today, the island has about 140,000 inhabitants, 73.9% of which are Spaniards.
How to get to Lanzarote
There is no direct flight connection to this fabulous island from Moscow or Kyiv. You can fly to the airport of the largest island of the Canary archipelago – Tenerife, and then, having made a transfer, fly to the island of Lanzarote.
From Moscow to Tenerife
Travel time from Moscow to Tenerife South Airport will take about 7 hours 23 minutes.
As a rule, there are 4 flights per week. You can use the services of AirBaltic, VIM-Avia, Transaero or Helios-Air.
You can immediately choose the optimal connection time for flights. For example, from Moscow Domodedovo Airport to Lanzarote Airport with one transfer can be reached in 11 hours and 40 minutes, while the return flight can take only 11 hours.
You can save a lot on air tickets if you follow the low price flight calendar.
From Kyiv to Tenerife
You can fly from Kyiv to Tenerife in 6 hours using the services of Binter Canarias, Iberia, Ukraine Intl Airlines, KLM, Air Europa and Air France.
After landing on the island of Tenerife, having made a transfer, you can fly to Lanzarote International Airport, which is located 5 km from the island’s capital Arrecife in the municipality of San Bartolome.
Buses No. 22 and No. 23 run from the airport to the city center (approximate ticket price is from 0.92 to 1. 15 €.

There are also excellent transport links to other resort areas.
The cost of a flight between the Canary Islands, which will last 50 minutes, will cost approximately 80€.
Towns and resorts of Lanzarote
Since 1927, Lanzarote, along with another Canary Island – Fuerteventura, became part of the Las Palmas region and was territorially divided into seven municipalities:
Arrecife,
San Bartolome,
Haria,
Tias,
Yaisa,
Tinaho,
Teguise, which includes Isla de la Graciosa and four small islets, which also include Taiche.
Tenerife – a detailed guide to the Spanish island of eternal spring and not all parents want to tire their little ones.A good alternative is a holiday in mainland Spain, our review tells.
The capital of the island Arrecife owes its name to a mountain reef , which is why Aressife is translated from Spanish as “reef”. The streets of the city reflect the unique maritime character and literally breathe history.
The first mention of Arrecife dates back to the 15th century, when this city was still a small fishing village. Black volcanic reefs, behind which boats hid, protected fishermen from sudden pirate attacks. In the XVI century. the settlement began to grow actively, and the first church dedicated to the first bishop of San Gines was erected on its territory.
The city became the capital in 1852 and such major industries as tourism and agriculture are actively developing on its territory.
Arrecife is home to the city beach of Reducto, a castle of San José built in the 17th century. and which today houses a collection of modern art, as well as the castle of San Gabriel.
The tallest building on the island – Gran Hotel Arrecife is located in the city next to the harbour. The city has several malls and the main street of the shopping district.
Of course, not the capital of the island is attractive for tourists, but resort centers :
Costa Teguise;
Puerto del Carmen, in the suburbs of which the resort village of Puerto Calero is located;
New tourist center in the south – Playa Blanca.
PUERTO DEL CARMEN
The tourist center is located on the southeast coast of the island and stretches along the ocean for 7 km.
You can get to Puerto del Carmen from the airport by bus . Arrecife Bus provides regular transport links. The ticket price is negligible – approximately 1.50€.
You can also use the services of the competing company Bono Bus, which will cost you 1.20€ to get to the oldest resort.
Buying Bono Bus magnetic cards , save 20% on travel.
Taxi service for visitors. The fare depends on the time of day . So from 6:00 to 22:00 you can get to Puerto del Carmen for approximately 15 €, from 22:00 to 6:00 – for 18 €.
Once a small resort village in just 20 years has turned into a resort town, receiving from 30,000 tourists annually. A significant part of the city is occupied by natural spacious sandy beaches.
Puerto del Carmen Beaches
Playa Grande or Playa Blanca
Ideal for families with children , as it is covered with golden sand, there are no winds here, the waters of the ocean are calm and the shore canopy. Its length is 900m, maximum width – 100m. On the beach there is a rental of umbrellas and sun loungers, a shower and a wide range of water activities.
Playa de los Pocillos
The golden sandy beach is just above sea level, so the tides leave small “lakes”. Previously, sea salt was mined here by the old method of evaporation in the sun.
This is the longest and widest beach in the resort. Its length is 1.600m, the maximum width is 170m (at low tide it can reach 200m). Because of the winds, it is not so attractive for families with children. On its territory there is a rental of sun loungers and umbrellas, a shower, but there are no water activities here.
Playa Matagorda
The golden sandy beach gently starts from Playa de los Pocillos and ends at the Beatriz Playa hotel. It is also windy, its length is 1.000m, the maximum width is 60m. Umbrellas with sun loungers and showers are provided for vacationers. There are no water activities.

The resort has no history of turning a fishing village into a beautiful city. It was created artificially on an uninhabited stretch of coast about 40 years ago. The coast is always windy, so Costa Teguise has become a favorite destination for windsurfers and kiters.
Beaches Costa Teguise

Las Cucharas
Translated from Spanish, the name translates as “spoons”. The length of the beach, covered with fine light sand, is 700m, the width is 60m. On the beach, guests can rent umbrellas and sun loungers, showers.
There are no water activities, so for the impressions of walking on the ocean and catching exotic fish, you will have to go to the nearby Puerto del Carmen or its suburb – Puerto Calero. The beach was chosen by windsurfers, as a moderate wind does not stop blowing even for a minute.
But near the Melia Salinas, the wind is calmer, so the waves are calmer, and beach lovers are already basking in the sun on a wider beach.
Playa de los Charcos
Windy beach with fine light sand. Entry into the waters of the ocean is hampered by stones. But the beach, with a length of 310m and a width of 30m, is protected from the waves. There are water activities, umbrellas with sun loungers and showers.

The center of Costa Teguise is centered around Pueblo Marinero, an ornamental fishing village designed by Cesar Manrique. Also, according to the project of Manrique, ordered by King Hussein of Jordan, one of the four residences of the King of Spain, La Mareta, was built. She was presented by Hussein to the Spanish king Juan Carlos as a wedding gift.
La Mareta is a rather modest building, on the territory of which there is a helipad. The residence is carefully guarded, and curious tourists are not allowed to enter here.
Costa Teguise has numerous bars and restaurants , and once a week on Fridays there is a market where they sell clothes, cheap jewelry and souvenirs. Those who wish can go with specially organized flights from Costa Teguise to a huge market in the city of Teguise, which takes place on Sundays.
You can buy original handmade souvenirs in the market craftsmen. After shopping in the administrative capital of the coast, you can stroll around the city – the old capital of the island with a long history.
The settlement was named Teguise after the daughter of the last native king who lived in the 15th century. One of the streets of the city is called “Bloody” in memory of the events when most of the inhabitants were brutally killed in one of the numerous raids of pirates.
Also, the fortress on Mount Castillo de Santa Barbara is named after its owner, who was canonized for the fact that she was martyred without giving the pirates a place of refuge for her servants. She is the patroness of the city, and Spanish Catholics always commemorate her day in churches.
Among the interesting objects is the Spinoza Palace, which was originally the residence of the Governor-General, and then passed to later owners – merchants from Genoa.
The palace is now a museum and its ornate interior impresses visitors. It is also worth visiting one of the oldest churches in the Canary Islands, the Nuestra Señora de Guadelupe church, and then strolling along the stone-paved streets with numerous sights.

Lanzarote beaches TOP 10: description, location, photo, video
Although the Atlantic Ocean is not very warm and gentle, you can and should swim in it! Therefore, I offer you an article – Beaches of Lanzarote TOP 10. Let’s analyze the beaches “by the bones” and tell you everything! You will not find such a rating in RuNet, this is not a template redone article, but manually compiled by me, the author of the site. The fact that I have visited Lanzarote twice gives me the right to talk about this and I know what I am writing about!
Before we start, I would like to recommend that you subscribe to my YouTube channel Aviationmania so that you don’t miss a single episode about Lanzarote, and there will be many!!
1. Papagayo Beaches (Playa de Papagayo)
It is not by chance that I rank the beaches, and I put Papagayo Beaches in the first place!
The fact is that under this name in the south of the island there is not one beach, but several.
Moving from the resort of Playa Blanca, you will pass one after another beautiful secluded coves hidden from the wind.
But since we are doing a rating here, I include a very specific beach – the last bay of Papagayo.
Believe me, you will recognize her and she will win you over!
Hint: there are two cafes on the mountain at the corner of the beach.
Papagayo on the map
How to get to Playa del Papagayo
There are at least three options:
on foot from Playa Blanca (resort in the south of Lanzarote)
by water taxi
0930
Advice if you go on foot:
The path is not easy: the distance is about 7-8 km (depending on which road you choose). In time, it will take at least 1.5-2 hours, add to this the hot Canarian sun and rest stops and it turns out that you will spend half a day on the road and rest there. But, if you don’t have plans for a person and you like to walk, then why not!
Playa del Papagayo by car, advice:
If you are renting a car and going to this beach, keep in mind that the road is unpaved, so it is more comfortable to travel by jeep / SUV.
Water taxi Ido Papagayo:
I already wrote about this in the article Lanzarote Canary Islands: Puerto Del Carmen resort, so I am posting a screenshot:
2.
Playa Chica
popular resort of Lanzarote – Puerto Del Carmen. Its length is less than 100 meters, but it is considered the best in the resort and one of the best on the island.
This beach is also very popular due to the fact that there is a diving school right on the coast. Therefore, all lovers of diving from the shore adore this place.
Well, ordinary tourists will like the beach because it is sheltered from the wind (located in a bay between rocky lava rocks), which means that the water here is warmer than on many beaches of the island.
Playa Chica on the map
3. Famara Beach (Playa de Famara)
This is a beach for surfers and people who are active and free. The landscape is reminiscent of Los Gigantes in Tenerife. Who cares, welcome to my article about our visit to Tenerife, namely in article Tenerife black sand beaches .
Here you can find inexpensive hotels, eat unrealistically delicious paella in a fish restaurant on the shore. Surf schools and equipment stores, all this is on the beach of Famara.
The beach is long and picturesque. The entrance is comfortable, but, as you probably guessed, the signature feature of the beach is the presence of waves and wind. There are not many families with children here, since the waves of the Atlantic Ocean are not like sheep on the Mediterranean Sea, you won’t frolic with a circle …
The bulk of vacationers are young people.
Famara beach photo:
Playa de Famara on the map
4. White beaches of Orzola (Playa Caletón Blanco)
The beach is located in the North of Lanzarote and not everyone comes here.
There are several reasons:
in the settlement of Órzola, few people stay during their holidays, perhaps it would be more correct to say almost no one. This is not a tourist place
the first reason leads to the second – it’s a long way to go to the beach
not everyone knows how picturesque it is, but what can I say, not everyone knows about its existence. Many people think that all the remarkable beaches are located in the south. But this is not always the case!!!
Órzola’s Caletón Blanco beach
There is a bit of confusion around this beach, as is the case with Papagayo. The town of Orzola is rich in beaches on both sides:
south of Orzola is Caleton Blanco
north of Orzola is Playa De Orzola
And these are two completely different beaches!
Caleton Blanco beach photo
Playa De Orzola beach photo
Caleton Blanco — the beach is very picturesque!
Its main feature is green hills of grass powdered with white sand brought from the Sahara. Yes, yes, don’t be surprised. The wind carries sand across the ocean, which settles here, forming white dunes among bright green vegetation. And if you add the blue waters of the ocean to all this, it seems that you are in a fairy tale!!!
But let’s be honest: admiring and swimming are two different things!
Therefore, I want to warn everyone who is already putting on swimming trunks, that this is not a good entry into the ocean, there are a lot of stones. And if the water is not calm, then stones, waves and wind can completely spoil the bath. Be careful. But it’s definitely worth it to come and see it.
Playa De Orzola – a beautiful beach (little Famara)
I did not include this beach in my rating, and here’s why.
It is very beautiful (rocks, waves, ocean. But it reminds me of Famara beach, which I already talked about, only Playa De Orzola does not have such a civilization (restaurants, surf schools, etc.). Therefore, if you want privacy , then you will quite like it, but I will not repeat myself)
Playa Caletón Blanco on the map
5. Flamingo Beach (Playa Flamingo)
If you are staying at the resort of Playa Blanco, then do not rush to walk 8 km to Papagayo Bay!
Visit the beach of your resort first:)
It is very hot in the Canary Islands in summer. The sun spares no one! In this sense, the presence of civilization near the beach can play a decisive role in choosing a place to relax and swim. Flamingo Beach is just like that. It is not very long (about 200 meters), but everything you need is there.
Restaurants with terraces and a beautiful promenade will diversify your holiday. And if you also order a bottle of Yaiza wine … mmmm … But more on that later, in another article. Wine in Lanzarote is a separate issue.
Playa Flamingo on the map
6. Mujeres Beach (Playa de Mujeres)
To be honest, I don’t know how to pronounce the name of this beach in Russian)
It is located in the south of the island. And the choice of this beach is something between Papagayo Bay and Flamingo Beach. At least in terms of location. That is, it is located, one might say, halfway along the road to Papagayo from Playa Blanca. And it is Mujeres – the first beach of Papagayo. That is, he also belongs to this group. Its popularity is partly due to this. But besides the loud name, it still has some positive features.
Both the rough waters of the Atlantic and calm waters can welcome you here, both are normal for the Canaries, bring some goodies and a hat and enjoy.
In addition, there is a World War II quarry and limestone bunker that travelers love to explore. However, I am not a supporter of such entertainment, at least without a Geiger counter in my hands)
Photo of the object on the beach
Mujeres Secret Coves
If you are not afraid or, on the contrary, love, then at low tide in these places you can look for bays that cannot be reached by land.
Playa de Mujeres on the map
7. Beach with olivines (Playa de Janubio)
Here in Lanzarote miracles happen at every turn. Right on the beach you can collect a handful of semi-precious emerald stones. Twice a day, at high tide, they wash ashore from the ocean, and knowledgeable tourists collect pebbles.
This is the main feature of this beach. It is difficult to swim here because of the often strong waves and large stones, but it is very pleasant to walk along the black sand along the ocean, collecting olivines.
In addition, behind the beach is the salt mining site in Lanzarote – Salina De Janubio.
But I talked about this in another article .
8. Beach near Lago Verdi – Charco de los Clicos
In the photo you see a green lake. This is Lago Verde. I have already written about it in more detail. And next to it is the beach. It seems to be nothing particularly remarkable, however, you can get several pleasures at a time by visiting it.
El Golfo
The fact is that this is a beach – a volcano crater, which is now a beach))) I would swim in the crater, and you?
9. Playa Del Risco beach
Friends, I’m “burning the topic” because I just can’t be silent…
in fact, absolutely ordinary and unremarkable .. I want to write to you about such places, seeing which you will remember me with a kind word and write good reviews on the website and YouTube channel Aviamania)))
Lanzarote Beaches TOP 10: Playa Del Risco

Lanzarote – an island in the Canary Islands, the province of Las Palmas
A place that combines fascinating volcanic landscapes, innumerable opportunities for outdoor activities, amazing Mediterranean cuisine – this is one of the islands of the Canary archipelago – Lanzarote.
The Canary Islands have long been rightfully considered a place of elite recreation. The islands are washed by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean and consist of 7 large and several small islands.
Island of Volcanoes
The fourth largest island of the Canary archipelago Lanzarote is called the “island of volcanoes” . It is complex, like a bizarre mosaic, of unique multi-tiered caves, beaches, plantations of vineyards, cacti and, of course, the sun. Scientists suggest that the age of the island is approximately 15 million years. This is the easternmost island of the Canarian archipelago, located about 125 km from the coast of Africa and 1000 km from the Iberian Peninsula.
The island got its name from the name of the Genoese merchant Lancelotto Malocello, who arrived on the island in the 14th century. The coastline of the island stretches for 213 km, of which 10 km are covered with sand, and the rest is a rocky coast. The beach is located at 16.5 km. Extravagant mountain ranges were formed after numerous eruptions and lava flows that spread along the slopes, giving them bizarre shapes.
The demon is the emblem of the island . This is explained by the fact that the first inhabitants of the island perceived the volcanic eruptions as the work of the devil. The largest recorded eruptions occurred between 1730 and 1736.
In 2.053 days of eruptions, lava covered ¼ of the surface of the entire island, including the most fertile soil, and buried 11 villages under it. The island was actually deprived of forest cover and only succulents and lichens managed to take root in Lanzarote. The drought that affected the island in 1768 and the lack of rain during the winter led to the emigration of the population to America and Cuba.
The next volcanic eruption occurred in 1824, but in terms of its strength it was less destructive than the main one. But it also led to the exodus of the indigenous population. Today, the island has about 140,000 inhabitants, 73.9% of which are Spaniards.

Black volcanic reefs, behind which boats hid, protected fishermen from sudden pirate attacks. In the XVI century. the settlement began to grow actively, and the first church dedicated to the first bishop of San Gines was erected on its territory.
The city became the capital in 1852, and such major industries as tourism and agriculture are actively developing on its territory.
Arrecife is home to the city beach of Reducto, a castle of San José built in the 17th century. and which today houses a collection of modern art, as well as the castle of San Gabriel.

The market offers original handmade souvenirs craftsmen. After shopping in the administrative capital of the coast, you can stroll around the city – the old capital of the island with a long history.
The settlement was named Teguise after the daughter of the last native king who lived in the 15th century. One of the streets of the city is called “Bloody” in memory of the events when most of the inhabitants were brutally killed in one of the numerous raids of pirates.
Also, the fortress on Mount Castillo de Santa Barbara is named after its owner, who was canonized for the fact that she was martyred without giving the pirates the place of refuge of her servants. She is the patroness of the city, and Spanish Catholics always commemorate her day in churches.

And the majority is sights of Lanzarote only reinforce the initial impressions. The most famous place on the island is Timanfaya – a national park that amazes tourists with lunar-Martian landscapes and an incredible number of volcanoes located in a small area. Few people will be left indifferent by a lunch in a restaurant above the mouth of a volcano and a fire show arranged for visitors. The legacy of ancient eruptions are the inimitable galleries of the underground caves of Los Verdes and Jameos, whose bizarre forms frighten and fascinate. The skill of the legendary architect Cesar Manrique turned one of them into a unique natural and architectural complex with an artificial lagoon and an underground concert hall. Other creations of the master are no less interesting: the Mirador del Rio observation deck, a luxurious cactus garden and the former architect’s house, harmoniously integrated into the volcanic landscape.

South of the village of El Golfo is an amazing lake of unnatural acid green color – Charco de los Clicos. Like frozen waves, it is surrounded by bizarre rocks. On the black pebble beach there are tourists who are keen on searching for the olive-green semi-precious stone – olivine (chrysolite).
Jameos del Agua volcanic caves
Jameos del Agua volcanic caves are an extraordinary landscape that consists of underground passages and grottoes. This complex has become an excursion object thanks to the initiative of the artist Cesar Manrique. The first cave with a luxurious tropical garden and an artificial reservoir is called Jameo Grande. A little further is Jameos del Agua, a concert cave with unique acoustics and the entrance to a crater called Jameo de la Cazuela. The fauna of Jameos del Agua is interesting, the most famous representative of which is the white blind crab, which has become a symbol of this cave complex.
Cueva de Los Verdes
Los Verdes cave, more than 6 km long, appeared several thousand years ago. At one time, local residents fled from pirates in its intricate galleries. Now a kilometer section of the tunnel with winding corridors and spacious high halls is open for tourists.
César Manrique House Museum
The amazing house of the famous artist, built and decorated by himself, is now the office of the César Manrique Foundation (Fundación César Manrique) and the museum of the eminent master, which houses the works of the artist himself, as well as his personal collection of paintings Tapiesa, Miro, Picasso.

Its often ferocious tidal waves have molded this natural rock pool over time. It’s now a coastal jewel that resembles a turquoise gemstone. An astounding color for an early 2019 Winter afternoon on January 16. 
From there, walk or drive right into C/Los Sabadeños and continue straight to the Laja. A bus stop to return to Puerto de la Cruz is only by the freeway TF5, one of which is opposite Calle de la Luz where Titsa 108 also takes you back to the capital Santa Cruz.

Der natürliche Lavapool liegt im kleinen Fischerdort San Juan de la Rambla im Norden von Teneriffa und ist derzeit noch fast ein Geheimtipp. Der Eintritt ist frei und das gesamte Erscheinungsbild des Lavapools ist sehr naturbelassen. Um den Pool erreichen zu können, wurden ca. 150 Treppenstufen in die Felsen gebaut, die aus Lavasteinen bestehen und sich somit perfekt ins natürliche Bild der Küste einpassen.
Das Wasser spritzt über die Felsen bis in den Pool hinein und erzeugt zwischenzeitlich sogar einen natürlichen Wasserfall an der Seite des Pools. Schaue dir auf dem nachfolgenden Bild am besten selbst an, wie schön dies aussieht:
Der natürliche Lavapool ist zum Baden freigegeben und kann kostenfrei genutzt werden. Hierfür wurden extra Treppen bis hinunter in den Pool gebaut. Zur Sicherheit befindet sich oben am Pool zudem ein Rettungsring.
Die Gezeiten für San Juan de la Rambla findest du z.B. auf dieser Webseite.
Auf dem kleinen Platz kannst du kostenfrei parken und findest aus unserer Erfahrung problemlos einen freien Platz.
Der natürliche Lavapool Charco de la Laja ist einer der schönsten Naturpools auf Teneriffa und definitiv einen Besuch wert. Egal, ob du hier schwimmen gehen möchtest oder nicht. Denn durch die schöne Kulisse und die einschlagenden Wellen ist der Naturpool in San Juan de la Rambla auch ohne Badeaufenthalt einen Ausflug wert.
Íbamos a recorrer el norte de la isla visitando los puntos más llamativos.
Descubrí que los churros de Tenerife son como las porras de Málaga pero mil veces más densos y más caros: 4 churros por 1.50 €.
Fue una fantástica elección. Pedimos: garbanzas (que es otro plato de garbanzos típico de Canarias), costillar asado (mucho más grande de lo que parece en la foto) y croquetas de pescado. De postre, quesillo (flan de queso típico canario) y flan de gofio (aún más canario, el gofio es una especie de harina de cereales). No pudimos acabar tal barbaridad de comida y decidimos pedir las croquetas para llevar. Todo muy bueno, casero y abundante. La cuenta muy barata para la cantidad de comida: 23.60 €.
Os aseguro que las vistas eran mucho más bonitas de lo que el vídeo (con tanta nube y viento) logra captar.
Y nos sorprendió también que automáticamente se desató la polémica… 
Y que ante tanta belleza, sientan la necesidad de comenzar a cambiar hábitos y preocuparse por la huella que dejamos en el medio ambiente.

Desgraciadamente, varias personas han muerto aquí por esta imprudencia. 
There are two swimming pools, numerous services and a sand area. About 10 kilometers away, in Santa Maria de Guia, are the Roque Prieto pools. Compared to other pools, they are more private and are great for forgetting about the hustle and bustle. Areas with shallow depths are combined here with zones up to three meters deep. 
If you come here with the whole family, we recommend you the La Maceta pool in Frontera (in the north of El Hierro). The Pozo de las Calcosas in the El Monacal (Valverde) region is unique and has an interesting natural environment. It is a small cove sheltered by a cliff that houses curious thatched volcanic stone houses once built by local fishermen. Not far away are the pools of La Caleta, where the natural shape of the rocks is used to make the pools more comfortable and avoid the need to walk on rocky ledges. 
Seeing the bright blue color of the water, you will understand how its name came about. It is large and completely protected from the waves of the sea, and in addition there is a pool for children. About 10 kilometers north, in Barlovento, you can visit La Fajana. This place is ideal for families thanks to the three pools and leisure area. 
It is in Valle Gran Rey that Charco del Conde is located, the most popular natural pool of the island of La Gomera. It is recommended for families and has a sandy beach where you can sunbathe.

Collected real reviews about others. Now I want to share my experience with you. 
Despite attempts to protect the pool from the waves with a specially equipped wall, the water here is not always calm. Due to the huge waves, the pool often floods, and it becomes dangerous to swim. Therefore, Charco de Isla Cangrejo is sometimes closed, especially during strong winds and storms. But if you manage to visit here, the impressions will remain forever. 
It fills up at high tide and nearly dries up at low tide. The water is very clear, perfect for snorkelling. 
The water here is very calm. A ramp is provided for a comfortable descent. 
few people knew about this place. It is very calm here, the water is clear and without waves. There is a sunbathing area. 
Calm water, great views around, relatively few people. 
There are shower cabins, there is a rescue station, everything is adapted for easy access for children and people with disabilities. 
It is located between the resorts of Gomera and Gran Canaria. Due to its volcanic origin, mountainous relief prevails here. In the center, at 3718 m, rises the Teide stratovolcano, which is the symbol of Tenerife and the highest point in Spain. From 1954 the area around it was turned into a national park. In 2007, it was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 
The main visitors are the guests of the nearest hotel Barcelo Santiago. Charco de Isla Cangrejo is characterized by large waves, deep sections and rock bottoms. 
Therefore, it is not suitable for children. 
These beaches are definitely among the most beautiful on Lanzarote and are a must-see especially if you are staying in Playa Blanca.
It is also possible to drive to the foot of the Volcano Walk and start your hike from here. Arriving at the top, you can enjoy the panoramic views over the Playa Blanca resort, the distant beaches, surrounding volcanic mountains and across to Fuerteventura island. The view is truly breathtaking from up there.
The Windblue sports diving school in Playa Blanca offers amazing diving courses from beginner level to advanced. On the beach of Playa Dorada, you can find water sports also.
Whether classic Spanish tapas, Italian specialities, burgers, fresh fish, steak, you will find everything you could wish for here.
The winds tend to die down a little in September. Daytime temperatures rarely rise above 32°C during the summer months. Playa Blanca also tends to experience little wind, as it is protected by the cove, so perfect for enjoying the beaches.

It is much bigger than Playa Blanca and protected by breakwater. There are a few restaurants and shops right behind the beach, but it’s relatively quieter that Playa Blanca. 
It’s a great place to go in the evening. 
You can actually walk for hours if you decide to go all the way to the west coast. There you will reach the Lighthouse called Faro de Punta Pechiguera Antiguo (location: here)
Visit Playa Papagayo
Some will sail around Playa Papagayo and stay there for a few hours. They provide lunch and many other equipments such as snorkels, kayaks or Stand-up Paddle boards. You can check it out here. 
The island offers a great diversity of underwater species. To discover the best diving spots, leave from Playa Blanca or Puerto del Carmen. 
You can find out more about it here. 
The bungalow has a kitchen, so you can cook at home to save a bit of money. The place was super clean when we stayed there and we ate pretty much every day on the outdoor terrace. We love this place which has the perfect value for money. Book it here. 
It’s the go-to spot to watch sunset. Location: here

It’s residential so we did have to put up with some local dog barking which was annoying at times. We would …”
2 mi from Playa Blanca
It is a pleasant and popular beach and because of this can be busy at times.
The beaches here are more secluded and less touristy, although also popular with nudists.
Partly it is. Three main beaches within the city limits will delight tourists with light sand and calm waves, while a significant part of the six-kilometer coastline of the resort is occupied by rocks. 
Not in vain, many people have the question: “where would you like to relax?” the answer would be “in the Canaries”. Lanzarote is one of the islands of the archipelago. So if the dream is the Canary Islands, then welcome to one of the resorts of Lanzarote – Playa Blanca. 
At the peak of the season, the air warms up to 25-27 degrees. In the high season, the water temperature in the ocean is 23-24 degrees, in the low season – 18-19 degrees. 
There are three within the city limits. The total complexity of the equipped beach area is 655 meters. It includes Playa Blanka (100m), Playa Flamingo (225m), Playa Dorada (300m). Bathing on them will be calm and serene. The waves are small, which contributes to a comfortable stay, including with children. Light sand on all three justifies the name of the entire resort. 
It is from this resort of the island that the ferry leaves for Fuerteventura, where you can go diving.

Possible inconvenience during the transfer and the time spent in the airliner’s seat – everything will be erased as soon as you find yourself in this fabulous place. 
Few people will be left indifferent by a lunch in a restaurant above the mouth of a volcano and a fire show arranged for visitors. The legacy of ancient eruptions are the inimitable galleries of the underground caves of Los Verdes and Jameos, whose bizarre forms frighten and fascinate. The skill of the legendary architect Cesar Manrique turned one of them into a unique natural and architectural complex with an artificial lagoon and an underground concert hall. Other creations of the master are no less interesting: the Mirador del Rio observation deck, a luxurious cactus garden and the former architect’s house, harmoniously integrated into the volcanic landscape.
