Vallehermoso is a town in the Negros Oriental province of the Philippines. It is located on the border of Negros Oriental and Negros Occidental, which are the eastern and northwestern parts respectively of the island of Negros in the Central Visayas region. It is surrounded by three cities, San Carlos in the north, Guihulngan in the south and Canlaon in the east. The municipality of Vallehermoso is divided into fifteen barrios or barangays, which means village, district or ward, and is the smallest administrative division in the Philippines.
The town was founded by Don Diego de la Viña y de la Rosa, a revolutionary and a local hero of Negros Oriental who was of Spanish-Chinese parentage. In 1881 he came from Negros Occidental looking for new land to occupy. He called the place “Valle hermoso” or beautiful valley when he first saw it from the top of a hill, and that was how the town got its name. The region, then called Bagawines, was the home of the unfriendly Bukidnons, an aboriginal tribe. Don Diego met their chief Ka Saniko and offered fine canes and other artifacts in exchange for land. Clearing the land with the help of some members of the tribe, Don Diego built his home, a casa tribunal, and a chapel. Within five years the valley became a hacienda where rice, corn, sugar cane tobacco, and coconut were grown. Don Diego continued to increase his estate until it stretched north to Macapso on the boundary of San Carlos, south to Mopolo on the boundary of Guihulngan and the slopes of Canlaon, where his horses and cattle grazed. He had a civilizing influence on the Bukidnons and inculcated in them a love of work and ideas about religion. Don Diego also built a road to Negros Occidental, which gave him access to take part in the historic revolt against the Spanish.
According to the census of 2010, Vallehermoso has a population of 36,943. Most of the people are farmers and fishermen while some work for the government or in private businesses. More than half have completed secondary schooling while many are professionally trained.

Vallehermoso: Nature’s Landscape Masterpiece – Canary Islands Info
Sprawled in La Gomera‘s western part is the glorious Vallehermoso. As the largest in the island, the vast municipality is home to various types of terrain. Its coast, although not always welcoming to eager swimmers, is also stunning. Here, vacationers are close to natural wonders and can walk in towns where time stood still.
History
La Gomera was once a kingdom under one ruler. After the death of King Amalahuigue, however, the island was divided into four smaller territories: Mulagua, Ipalán, Agana, and Orone. Then, the conquest and eventual fall of the Canaries came. Today’s Vallehermoso was, at that time, part of the last two cantons. It wasn’t until 1678 that it was finally declared a separate municipality.
In the 16th century, the vast area started sugarcane cultivation. This industry well lasted until the 18th century and was the force behind the population growth. While other regions were experiencing economic hardships, Vallehermoso was the engine that kept La Gomera afloat.
The 19th century was an entirely different story as the demand for sugarcane significantly dropped. Alas, the era of agricultural prosperity brought by this particular crop came to an end. Other produce such as tomato and orchilla, unfortunately, didn’t return enough profit. Nonetheless, Vallehermoso still expanded with the addition of Chipude in its territory.
1910 came and what was once fields and fields of sugarcane were turned into banana plantations. Sadly, the resurrection of the farming industry was short-lived. Many years of political turmoil in La Gomera caused many of its inhabitants to leave the island for greener pastures. A good number moved to Venezuela and other countries in South America. Tourism eventually landed on its shore by the 90s and has been the primary reason for the surge of developments in the green isle.
Holidaymakers who wish to witness pristine natural beauties at every turn have Vallehermoso to add to their destination checklist. They can watch the world go by while sauntering its timeless towns. If admiring its landscape from a distance doesn’t suffice, they may hike through its captivating features. In this municipality getting close to nature and experiencing rich culture is effortless.
Natural Monument Roque Cano
Rising from the hillside of Vallehermoso is the unique-looking Roque Cano. It has quite a portfolio that attests to its landmark status. Considered a symbol of La Gomera, it is its most significant geological rock in the north. The municipality coat of arms also bears its image. Now wonder hikers from all over the globe travel here to climb it.
Chiseled out of the north-west coastline of the island by the harsh Atlantic waves, Los Órganos is an all-natural spectacle. Unlike the prior that is visible from many parts of Vallehermoso, the cooled mass of magma remains hidden from the inland but out in the open from the sea. The only way to see it is by joining a boat excursion.
Fortaleza de Chipude
La Fortaleza is an imposing beauty at 1241-meter-high. Even in the time of the original inhabitants of La Gomera, it already played a vital role. As such, its flat summit is home to several valuable archaeological sites. Today, vacationers can admire it from the nearby town of Chipude or hike to its peak.
Erques-La Rajita and La Negra, the two ravines of Orone, are also favored by hikers. Aside from the breathtaking vistas that enthralls adventurers, the semi-abondoned villages of Erques, Erquito and La Rajita are also a must-see. Somehow, they have this melancholic charm that makes the walk and visit worth it.
Only three kilometers from the town center is the stunning beach of Vallehermoso. With towering cliffs surrounding the unspoiled gravel beauty, it is gaining popularity amongst holidaymakers. As marvelous as it looks, though, its choppy bay is only for experienced swimmers. Those who wish to take a dip can still do so in the seawater swimming pool built just beside it. Fitted with changing rooms, showers, and a snack bar, the complex is very much like a tiny resort. Here, visitors can swim, lounge around, and bask in the sun and all the glorious panoramas.
Built in 1890, the former banana loading station in Playa de Vallehermoso is quite an intriguing structure. It stands at the bottom of the cliff, and its platform extends to the sea. From here, people can admire the wondrous beach and the silhouette of Mount Teide. Today, apart from being a tourist attraction, it also hosts cultural events.
Dam of La Encantadora
Mountainous landscape and palm trees ring in the dam of La Encantadora. From here, Roque Cano is also visible. For those who would like to enjoy a tranquil setting without breaking a sweat, this place is a great option. Picnics are also allowed, so it’s a pleasant place to visit with family and friends.
Jardín Botánico del Descubrimiento de Vallehermoso
Of course, the municipality has something to offer plant enthusiasts. Get to know the endemic floras of La Gomera in Jardín Botánico del Descubrimiento de Vallehermoso. The 16,219-square-meter botanical garden, constructed in 2000, also houses plant species from the other Canary Islands and five different continents.
The clock stopped ticking a long time ago in some of Vallehermoso’s villages. Serene and timeless, they embody the authentic rural Canary Islands that has since been lost. The north-west of the island is particularly rich with those kind of hamlets. Hear the crashing waves in Arguamul and Alojera. Visit one of the island’s oldest church, Ermita de Santa Lucía, in the mountain-top Tazo. Not in that region but undoubtedly a must-visit is El Cercando. It’s in the center of the island and is a go-to for people who love pottery or want to it.
Getting to and Around Vallehermoso
By Bus
Tourists arriving in La Gomera by plane and going to Vallehermoso by public transport have two options. From the airport, the fastest route is by going north. Take bus number 06 to El Cercado, Chipude, and Alejeró (towns in Vallehermoso). To go to the town of Vallehermoso, they must stop at Las Hayas and take bus 04.
Another option and is to head to San Sebastian first via bus number 07. From the capital, bus number 02 will go straight to Vallehermoso while 03 goes to Alajero. Those arriving by ferry must take either of the two (depending on where they plan to go).
Once already in the town of Vallehermoso, travelers can take bus numbers 04 and 05 which stops at the different towns in the municipality.
By Car
From the airport to the town of Vallehermoso, drive along GM-2 then GM-1. If coming from San Sebastian, GM-1 will take them straight to the town center.
Where to Stay
When planning to spend a holiday in Vallehermoso, dismiss the idea of staying in a lavish hotel. Sojourning in this municipality means living like the locals and being close to nature. With unspoiled scenery right next door, it’s no surprise people are moving here for good.
In the Municipal Capital
Many vacationers opt to stay in the town of Vallehermoso as it is near several natural landmarks and is fitted with ample commercial establishments. When in the heart of the municipality, the three-bedroom Casa de Telégrafos is an excellent choice. Guests can get relax in the cozy seating area or cook when and what they want in the fully-equipped kitchen. They can also admire Roque Cano from the roof-deck.
In El Cercado
When going to El Cercado whether to learn pottery, hike, or just unwind, Casa Vista Bella’s door is wide open. It comes with a lounge, dining area, and a well-furnished kitchen. The outdoor features of the property are also desirable. Travelers can relax on the seating area of the sun terrace while admiring the commanding La Fortaleza.
From the Apartamentos Clary, tourists are free to cherish the magnificent Atlantic and surrounding mountains any time of the day. Heading to the beach is also a must as its only a nine-minute walk away. The property has two apartments; both can cater up to five persons, have two bedrooms and fully equipped kitchen.
Where to Eat
Most of La Gomera’s best international food establishments are in San Sebastian and Valle Gran Rey. Vallehermoso, however, has a good share of excellent Canarian restaurants. For true island flavors with a touch of Spanish and Mediterranean taste, there’s no need to search outside the municipality.
Vallehermoso’s Must-Trys
Vacationers in Vallehermoso (the town) should not miss Tasca Restaurante El Carraca and Bodegon Restaurante Agana. Literally split in half, the prior is a bar on one side and a seated restaurant on the other. Morcillas Caseras (homemade blood sausages), Albacore A La Plancha (Grilled Longfin Tuna), and Leche Agana (baked egg custard) are their best-sellers. On the other hand, the latter is a local favorite known for their huge pork chops, Costillas con papas y piñas (Ribs with potatoes and pineapples), Escaldón, fish soup, queso frito, and Leche Asada.
Romantic Meal by the Beach
To sweep your partner off his or her feet effortlessly, drop by Prisma. Don’t think it’s only for couples, though. All seafood lovers near or in Alojera should try their menu. Their tuna salad and “catch of the day” selections are always cooked marvelously. Diners can enjoy a meal and a glass of wine while watching the waves crash against the sea wall. They can also play with the friendly neighborhood cats if they want.
Local Bar in a Picturesque Village
Bar Victoria is a favorite amongst La Fortaleza hikers and El Cercado visitors mainly for three reasons. They have a wide range of local wines, inexpensive but delicious food, and the encompassing scenery is heart-stopping. Their must-trys include watercress soup, beef and goat stew, pork liver and mojo picón, almendrados, almogrote, goat cheese, and milk pudding with palm honey.
There’s an avalanche of destinations with prime facilities and amenities in the world. Unscathed natural beauties, though, are rare and becoming even rarer as time pass by. The municipality of Vallehermoso is one those few places. For travelers who desire pristine nature and serene towns, travel to the west of La Gomera. It is where they can go back to basics and just enjoy the scenery for what it is — beautiful and breathtaking.

The beaches in Gran Canaria get crowded even in November
November is the month when temperatures start to drop and although it’s as hot as it was during the summer season, the weather in Gran Canaria is still much great compared to what people living in continental Europe are getting.

Events in November
The Canary Islands are the closest warm destination to Europe during the winter season and the differences start to show come November. While some parts of Europe might even get their first snow of the season in November, Gran Canaria is still boasting sunshine almost every day, with a daily mean temperature of 21.2°C . This means that during the daytime you can still see temperatures rise up to 24 – 25°C, which means that you will be able to lay on the beach and get a tan, even if you visit the island in November.
November is also when the “swallows” start to arrive to Gran Canaria for the winter season. And by swallows we are not referring to the migratory birds, but instead to people from Europe, mostly from the UK, Germany or Scandinavia, who come to Gran Canaria to spend the winter months here, in order to escape the cold back home. This makes November the start of the second high season of the year in Gran Canaria (the other one is during the summer season).
The numbers mentioned in this article (temperatures, sunshine hours, water temperature, etc.) are from the GRAN CANARIA AIRPORT WEATHER STATION, but you can find info about other parts of the island in the table below.
The temperatures during the day in November are usually situated between 21°C and 24°C, which is still a good temperature for sunbathing and even swimming, depending on the other weather conditions as well of course.
November also comes with the risk of stormy weather and rainy days, as it marks the change of seasons between summer and winter and it is not usual to get a few wet days throughout this month. The worst weather the Canary Islands have seen in November in recent history has been the Delta tropical storm back in 2005, which has caused damage of hundreds of millions of euros. November 2018 has also seen some rough days towards the end of the month, so keep in mind that it is not usual for these sort of weather conditions to appear in Gran Canaria in November, although the south of the island is also more sheltered from the storms, compared to the north.
In November the percent of possible sunshine is at 54%, so some days may starts as cloudy in the morning, but you will also be able to enjoy hours of sunshine in order to get a tan or relax by the pool. And although you won’t get as much sun as in the summer months, the island still sees an average of 6 hours of sun per day (the south will probably have more hours of sun than the north).
The fact remains that, despite the chances of rain and storms, Gran Canaria will enjoy much better weather in November than most other European destination, where the beach season usually ends by the end of October. So if you don’t want to travel too far away, Gran Canaria and the Canary Islands, in general, are the safest option you have for a holiday of sun and warm weather towards the end of the year.
The south of the island is the ideal place to look for accommodation and we especially recommend that you stay in Puerto de Mogan or somewhere in the area, as that part of the island is considered to be the driest and most sunny part of Gran Canaria.

Things to do in Gran Canaria in November
In case the weather is not each day ideal for sunbathing and chilling by the pool we have a few suggestions of things that you could do in order to discover Gran Canaria beyond the beaches in the south.
Visit Firgas and explore the north of Gran Canaria
For a change of scenery, why not rent a car at least for a day and drive to Firgas, in the northern part of the island?
This is a lovely small town, situated just 13 km away from the capital of Las Palmas and the main point of attraction is an artificial waterfall right in the middle of the old town.
A short hike to Mirador Mogan
We recommend that you do this short (but steep) hike at sunset because the view from that viewpoint is simply breathtaking. You just have to head towards the big cliff in Playa de Mogan and on the way you will see a sign that points in the direction of the Mirador.
Events in November
Maspalomas Winter Pride
Dates: 8 – 14 November 2021

Where does this data come from?
Weather data for Las Palmas de Gran Canaria was collected from the MERRA-2 project from NASA, which used a climate model combined with historical data from weather stations around the world to estimate what the conditions were like for every point on the Earth.
For all data based on historical data, we’ve averaged the data from the past 11 years (2010-2020). For example, for the hourly temperature at 10am, we’ve looked at the temperature at 10am on every day in November (e.g., November 1, November 2, etc. in 2010, 2011, etc.) and took the arithmetic mean. We did not smooth the data, so for example, our daily temperature line will have some randomness due to the fact that weather is random in the first place.

In many sources describing Gran Canaria, the island is compared to a “continent in miniature” due to the variety of natural phenomena. Mountain landscapes are combined here with sand dunes in the resort of Maspalomas, which look like a small desert. And in the central part of the island is an extinct volcano Pico de las Nieves. In the north of the island it is always a little cool and there is a light breeze, and a few hours drive to the south you can languish from the hot scorching sun. Here it is – amazing Gran Canaria!
I got to the airport of the same name Gran Canaria by direct flight from Warsaw Modlin Airport. Travel time was 5 hours 30 minutes. As soon as you exit the plane, you begin to feel the pleasant warm air. There is a bus stop near the airport. By the way, the bus transport in Gran Canaria is called funny – “gua-gua”.
Santa Catalina bus station.
I planned to stay in the capital of the island – Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, having previously booked an apartment via the Internet. And I want to note right away that if we consider Gran Canaria for youth holidays, then only the capital of the island, since in other resorts young people will howl with longing on the second day, surrounded by expensive hotels, restaurants and German pensioners, imposingly strolling along the promenade.
The journey from the airport to Las Palmas takes about an hour and a half. The city has two main bus stations: San Telmo and Santa Catalina, and they are located underground. When I got there, I discovered that my apartment is located 5 steps from the magnificent beach of Las Canteras! A good-natured Spaniard met me on the threshold, he gave me the keys to the apartment, and from that moment my acquaintance with the island began.
I fell in love with Gran Canaria forever! I can’t say exactly what struck me. I want to go back there again, sit on the promenade of Las Canteras beach, enjoying a cup of aromatic coffee, look at the horizon, not think about anything and breathe in the fresh breeze coming from the ocean. I want to share what touched me, surprised, pleased and forever remained in my memory.
Old Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
To get to know the main attractions of the city, we took the Hop on, Hop off tour bus. For those who have not come across – bus route passes through the main tourist attractions, at stops you can get off, watch, take pictures, then the next bus drives up, and you continue the tour. A ticket for the tour costs about 20 euros and is valid for a day. The start of the route is Piazza Santa Catalina.
Plaza Santa Catalina.
A separate day was devoted to getting to know the old part of the city — Vegeta. Unlike the northern part of the city, which belongs to the port, Vegeta district has preserved its historical architectural appearance. The heart of the old town is the beautiful Basilica of St. Anne – the first church built in Gran Canaria and the largest in the Canary Islands.
Church of St. Anne.
You can go up to the observation deck of the temple and appreciate the panoramic view of the city.
Panoramic city view.
The second most popular architectural landmark, after the Church of St. Anne, is the House of Columbus. The building where the great navigator stayed during one of his expeditions until his ship was repaired. Now the House of Columbus is used as a museum, which presents expositions dedicated to the century of the Great Geographical Discoveries.
Columbus House.
Wonderful interactive museum, located in Piazza Santa Catalina. Museum expositions reveal various physical and chemical processes. Here you can see the device of the aircraft, the engine of the ship. And the best part is that you can touch everything, put it into action and participate yourself. You can spend half a day in the museum, and you won’t even notice how time passes. It will be equally interesting for both children and adults.
Museum of Science and Technology.
Atlantic Ocean
In Las Palmas I met the Atlantic. My trip took place in November, the weather at that time was very capricious. The ocean at this time was agitated, which attracted surfers.
Unfortunately, I was never lucky enough to get a deep tan. One fine morning, I woke up and decided to go to the beach, as the weather was favorable for this. While I got ready and left the house, the sun disappeared somewhere. I got to the beach, settled down, and it appeared again, but not for long. When clouds roll in, it becomes cool, as there is always a light wind on the island. I had to get dressed. Then, after some time, the sun again appeared from behind the clouds. In general, I spent this day chasing the sun. Despite the lack of heat, it was comfortable to swim, but this is all, of course, very individual.
Las Canteras beach.
Maspalomas
One day was planned for a trip to the south of the island – the resort of Maspalomas. We were on a regular bus from the Santa Catalina station. It was interesting for me to watch the locals getting on and off the bus. It’s not like we have in Russia – everyone is going with stone faces and is silent, while the Spaniards are chatting, laughing, chattering, there is such a din in the bus that you can’t hear what the person sitting next to you is saying.
The road from Las Palmas took about 2 hours, there were sections with serpentine, but it was not scary. The resort itself is a promenade area, cafes, restaurants, small villas and hotels.
Maspalomas resort.
We walked along the sand dunes and felt like Bedouins in the desert. And in the evening we watched an incredibly beautiful sunset.
Incredibly beautiful sunset.
Shopping
Long before the trip, of course, I heard that Canary Islands is a duty-free zone, but going on a trip, shopping was not my goal. I didn’t want to waste time shopping until I visited a major shopping center – Las Arenas. What can I say, I flew back with an advantage, and my most expensive purchase was glasses for 12 euros.
Notes and “chips”:
Connection: Wi-fi is difficult in the Canaries, there are free points in McDonald’s and in small supermarkets “HiperDino”. In kiosks with all sorts of things, you can buy a local Lebara SIM card. It gives you 2 GB of internet for 30 days.
Food: jamon, cheeses, olives, paella – without trying this, you can not return to your homeland. But there is a small Chinese restaurant Wok in Las Palmas, where you have a rich selection of seafood in the form of a buffet, for a fixed fee of about 13 euros.
The attitude towards Russians is more than friendly. On the promenade of Las Canteras there is a restaurant with Russian cuisine “Balalaika”. And once, walking along Santa Catalina Square, I heard the venerable grandfather playing “Katyusha” on the button accordion.
The best way to explore the island is by renting a car.
City Las Palmas de Gran Canaria – the capital of the island, business and cultural center. But there is no noise and turmoil inherent in large cities. This is a city for relaxation and soul.

The Ethical Cellar: Winemakers Pioneer a New Form of Sustainable Agriculture
We’ve all heard about imperiled bees. They are like canaries in mines, warning us that we may be in trouble.

Surveying the vines from a crest at Olianas, just outside Gergei, Sardinia, we feel enveloped in the magic of a healthy farm. Out of the corner of an eye, one of us spots something moving close to the ground. Geese? In a vineyard? In this “Bio-Integrale” field, geese work nibbling away at the lower leaves, allowing grapes to aerate. And on the days the geese rest, draft horses and donkeys finish the task.
If you’ve toured as many vineyards as we have, the difference between ethical and conventional ones is palpable. Grapes from the former appear healthier and often glow with an inner luminescence. The fields are different too. They’re alive with undergrowth, birds, and bees. They sometimes look unkempt. They’re not sterilized from pesticides, fungicides, and herbicides.
This is why it’s so hopeful the world of ethical wine is having its moment. A once obscure, fringe movement, practiced and promoted by radical grape growers, vintners, and wine merchants, has exploded globally. Sales of organic wine are now $10 billion and likely will grow 10 percent annually to reach over $20 billion by the end of the decade. One recent survey showed that 58 percent of New Yorkers and 68 percent of Parisians base their wine purchases on sustainable practices.
The ethical wine movement is a subset of critical new agricultural thinking, which realized that the farming practices that brought us increased reliance on petrochemicals to supplement depleted soil is not going to be the solution going forward. The world has learned that chemical interventions lead to diminishing returns, more toxic farmlands, and will not feed a growing global population.
In the UK, University of Manchester’s Professor Richard Bardgett, lead author of a 2020 UN Paper, reported: “There is a vast reservoir of biodiversity living in the soil that is out of sight and is generally out of mind. But few things matter more to humans because we rely on the soil to produce food. There’s now pretty strong evidence that a large proportion of the Earth’s surface has been degraded as a result of human activities.”
Before going further, here’s a brief review of ethical wine-making and what grape growers have done to address these unfortunate trends. They appear in order of least to most stringent.
Sustainable:
This is the loosest term and has no Federal or trade-enforced definitions. However, several regions have established guidelines/certifications like Northern California’s Lodi Rules. Hopefully, it means the grower or vintner is doing something better than traditional winemaking. Sustainable could mean dry farming rather than irrigation in a water-scarce region. Or it could mean using fewer pesticides and other toxic vine treatments. It can also mean using solar or gravity-fed (energy reduction) processes during fermentation and storage. The label or website should explain what makes the wine sustainable. It is really up to the drinker to drill down and ensure this is not green “wine-washing.”
One winery that understands this trend is Wolffer Estate in Sagaponack, a bucolic hamlet on Eastern Long Island. As their vineyard manager Richie Pisacano told Worth, “For seven years, our estate grapes have been certified by Long Island Sustainable Winegrowing, an independent, third-party viticulture program tailored to the unique needs of our region. We adhere to a checklist of nearly 200 farming best practices to minimize the use of chemicals and fertilizers, promote high biological diversity and healthy soils, and protect our delicate maritime ecosystem. We have invested in solar power and encourage native vegetation and wildlife to help balance and enhance our unique biome.”
Organic:
The same USDA rules apply to grapes as all other organic agriculture, i.e., growers can only use pest and mold reduction methods consistent with strict guidelines. Following these regulations earns the vineyard the right to put the organic symbol on its label. Note that these rules do not cover additives or manipulations in the vinting process, although it is reasonable to hope that a vintner who cares enough to grow organically will also apply ethical standards afterward. The word “Bio” is used in Europe to designate organic products.
Natural:
This is another user-generated term without any regulatory oversight. It is understood to mean zero intervention in both the growing and vinting processes. Grapes ferment in naturally occurring yeasts with no chemicals or fermentation helpers, like sugar, allowed. No color or flavor enhancers, ubiquitous in conventional winemaking, are utilized. Natural winemaking produces more misses and taste outliers because standardization and uniformity of vintage years are not the goals. The true expression of the grape is.
Two subsets of natural wine are the increasingly popular “Pet-Nat” (pétillant naturel, translated to “naturally sparkling”) wine that is bottled during the first fermentation, resulting in trapped carbon dioxide which yields a bubbly, champagne-like effect, and “Orange wines” where grape skins remain in contact with the fermenting juice.
Biodynamic:
The use of this term is strictly limited by the copyright holder, the Demeter Federation. After WWI, Biodynamic farming was developed by Rudolph Steiner, an Austrian polymath and one of the greatest minds of the 20th Century, as a method of increasing the yield of ruined farmland to feed Europe’s starving masses. His process incorporates enhanced natural fertilizers, crop rotation, and holistic animal and plant considerations. Sometimes derided for fringe/questionable practices like planting with moon cycles and burying “teas” in cow horns, Biodynamic farming has proven to be one of real value. Over 800 wine producers in more than 20 countries have earned the Demeter certification.
Benziger was Napa and Sonoma’s first Biodynamically certified winery. Chris Benziger, a founding family member, explained to Worth, “One of the great benefits of Biodynamic farming is the roots are encouraged to dig deep for nutrients and water. Over the years, ours have gone very deep and, in the process, have become almost self-sufficient. They have better resilience to drought and other weather extremes. Also, the deeper the roots, the greater potential for complexity because every band of soil the roots cross allows the vine to pull up that strata’s minerals into the grape. The result is more terroir.
“The biggest benefit of Biodynamic farming is that it is reparative. It replaces the biological capital,” Benziger says. “This type of farming thinks generationally, not quarterly. It is long-term and truly sustainable.”
One of our most influential wine writers, Jancis Robertson, believes the extra care needed to grow grapes Biodynamically results in higher quality wine in the bottle.
Moving past definitions, we find most interesting the degree to which these ethical practices are not only mainstream but are used by premium winemakers. For example, on a recent tour of wineries in the exulted Napa Valley, Opus One, Spotswoode, Tres Sabores, and others were organic, Biodynamic, or both. Some of the world’s ultra-high-end wines, like Bordeaux’s Chateaus Palmer and Latour, are certified Biodynamic. So is Chateau Petrus, often considered the greatest wine in the world, as are dozens of the best Burgundies.
An important and surprising aspect of using these categories is that most high-end vintners choose not to label their wines organic or Biodynamic because they sell them for their quality. They prefer the wines to speak for themselves and are not compelled to inform customers about their growing practices. During a visit to Burgundy a decade ago, we learned that many Chateaus in the region have been in the same families for hundreds of years, and the proprietors live on the property. They refuse to poison their land, so they quietly grow their grapes organically. Neither their websites nor their labels mention it. Your best source of information will be a knowledgeable wine merchant.
Why does it matter whether the wine is ethically made or not? What are the benefits? Why should it be your preference over conventionally grown grapes?
The multi-faceted answer starts with the soil. Non-pesticided earth is alive with thousands of microorganisms, insects, and worms. As prescient climate scientist James Lovelock wrote precisely half a century ago in his book Gaia, the land is a living part of the planet. When endless insecticides, pesticides, and herbicides are applied to the vines and often directly to the soil, it becomes lifeless, and the first link in the chain of life is broken. (For more on this, see Damian Carrington’s Guardian article “Global Soils Underpin Life Nut Future Looks ‘Bleak.’)
We’ve all heard about imperiled bees. In this regard, they’re like canaries in mines, warning us that we may be in trouble. Like them, humans need an entire biosphere to prosper and survive. We know it sounds like a woo-woo eastern religious philosophy but harming the most diminutive creature’s life cycle has dire repercussions for many other organisms living on the same planet.
Next up on the scale of biological complexity are the workers who come into contact with the grapes. Farm workers, in general, are an exploited population. In conventional farming, they are unprotected from a host of toxic substances. If you have seen a photo of a field laborer harvesting in a hazmat suit, you would understand the issue.
Growers who use toxic materials endanger not only their employees but also the workers’ families. Chemicals blow into nearby neighborhoods—usually where the workers live—landing on their clothing, inhaling into their lungs, and polluting their drinking water. Children are more susceptible to these poisons and can easily suffer severe developmental damage.
Numerous studies have shown these chemicals can affect neurological functioning, stunt development, and increase the risk of cancers. Like the garment industry, now in its ethical revolution, the case can be made that your enjoyment of a product should not come at the expense of others. Instead, it should be based on an ethical chain that respects all who touch it.
And, like clothing manufacturing which has so many steps, ethical wine need not be limited to the fields. CEO of the City Winery chain Michael Dorf told Worth, “Not only do we try to provide the highest quality wine possible, but we eliminate the largest portion of wine’s carbon footprint—the bottle, packaging, and shipping. Our wine goes from vat to a keg to drinkers’ glasses or reusable bottles. Plus, we plant trees to offset the carbon footprint of our grape deliveries.”
Luckily, sometimes this ethical process is consumer driven. At Francie, a Michelin-starred Williamsburg hotspot, maître d’ Erica Cantley told Worth, “We’re in Brooklyn where a lot of diners are looking for organic, Biodynamic, or even orange wines. But none of the wines are on our list because of this. It’s a bonus. Their quality is the reason.” Francie isn’t unique. Many restaurants don’t highlight their ethical wines, but staff will know and probably be delighted to tell you.
Lastly, it’s simply not in your interest to poison yourself. According to the Organic Wine Alliance’s Pesticide Fact Sheet, in California alone in 2010, 25 million pounds of pesticides were applied to conventionally grown wine grapes, resulting in more pesticides than those used to produce almonds, table grapes, tomatoes, or strawberries.
A European Union study found that 100 percent of conventional wines contained pesticides. The analysis revealed 24 pesticide contaminants, including five classified as carcinogenic, mutagenic, reprotoxic, or endocrine disrupting.
The French Ministry of Agriculture has identified 15 pesticides systematically transferred from grapes into wine during the winemaking process. Mirroring the U.S., grapes are among the most contaminated food products on sale in the EU because they receive a higher dose of synthetic pesticides than almost any other crop.
Why anyone would knowingly consume these chemicals remains a mystery to us.
Some good news for ethical wine drinkers or those considering ethical wines: There is a glut of grapes in the world. And every country has some and a significant amount of organic grapes. Most are expanding their production: the result—a lake of ethical wine that keeps prices low.
In states with minimal liquor taxes, it is not unusual to find ethical wines for a little over $10 a bottle. Organic wines from California like Bonterra, Frey, Benziger, Oregon’s King Estate (the largest Biodynamic vineyard in America), and Chile’s Natura each ship hundreds of thousands of cases annually and can be found in many U. S. supermarkets and places like Trader Joe’s.
French producer Gerard Bertrand has blended ethical winemaking with eye-catching packaging and marketing, allowing the company to bring its extensive family of wine—16 estates in the South of France—to 171 countries. Their award-winning rosés set the standard for refreshing summer wines and start at modest prices. The fact that they are ethical is not only of utmost importance to Bertrand but, he believes, “a key part of what I can deliver to the wine drinkers everywhere.”
All of this illustrates that ethical wine is not an elitist niche. It is for everyday drinking. Price point and quality-questioning resistance are not valid.
In conclusion, pick your reason for drinking ethical wine. Whether it’s for the earthworms, for Gaia, for the workers and their children, for the climate-change resilient plants, or your liver, there is a profound benefit to organic, Biodynamic, or natural wines. Plus, there is no downside. Their quality equals or exceeds conventional wines, allowing all wine-drinkers to make an ethical selection without sacrificing refinement.

‘Like a new planet’ | Volcano draws visitors to Spanish isle
Friday 16 September 2022 – 10:50am
The eruption of the volcano in La Palma a year ago — spewing rivers of molten rock and ash plumes into the air — has sparked tourism to the Spanish island
AFP | Juan MAZA CALLEJA
SPAIN – When the volcano erupted in La Palma last year, Teodoro Gonzalez Perez rushed to the Spanish island to see the lava flows with his own eyes — now he’s back for another look.
This time, he’s here to see the volcano closer up now it has quieted down.
“It’s like walking on the surface of a new planet,” said the 54-year-old nurse from the nearby island of Tenerife while hiking through a lush pine forest carpeted with black ash to reach the site.
“Visiting a volcano which recently erupted is an opportunity that only arises once in a lifetime,” he told AFP.
Since the volcano erupted on September 19, 2021, spewing rivers of molten rock and ash plumes into the air, interest in visiting La Palma is booming.
The island is normally one of the less visited ones of Spain’s tourism-dependent Canary Islands off Africa’s northwestern coast.
In August, the average hotel occupancy on the island hit 90.9 percent, well above expectations, with visitors from the rest of Spain accounting for the bulk of the overnight stays, according to local hotel lobby group ASHOTEL.
“Before the eruption, we struggled to make the island known,” ASHOTEL’s vice president Carlos Garcia Sicilia told AFP.

“On the one hand, the volcano has been a misfortune, a huge blow to the island’s economy. On the other, I think half the planet has now heard of La Palma.”
While the images beamed around the world during the 85-day eruption focused on the destruction caused by the volcano, news reports also highlighted the tiny island’s charms — which has helped whet the appetite for travel to La Palma.
Nicknamed “La Isla Bonita” or “The Beautiful Island”, La Palma is a UNESCO-recognised biosphere reserve replete with verdant forests, rocky peaks and desert.
– ‘As close as possible’ –
Since the eruption, the number of cruise ships stopping at the island has increased, as has the number of direct flights from mainland Spain and elsewhere in Europe.

Irish low-cost airline Ryanair opened its first base in La Palma in March and offers several direct flights per week to three Spanish cities as well as Milan.
Business is also booming for tour companies offering day trips by ferry from Tenerife, the largest and most visited island of the Canaries.
Excursiones Jesus, based in Tenerife, runs its 135-euro ($135) 11-hour tour of La Palma three days a week now, up from just one before the eruption.
“People want to get as close as possible to where the eruption happened,” company founder Jesus Molina told AFP.
The ash and rivers of lava spewing from the volcano swallowed up more than 1,000 homes, cut off highways and suffocated lush banana plantations.
On a recent weekday, small groups of tourists could often be seen snapping pictures of excavators removing giant chunks of solidified lava from the centre of La Laguna, a town where the molten rock swallowed up a gas station and a supermarket.
Among those flocking to the island are regular visitors, one of whom is Rita Ley, a retired German woman who said she wanted to see what it looked like after the eruption.
“It is terrible to see that everything is destroyed, but it’s interesting to see how the earth is alive,” said the 59-year-old.
– Travel vouchers –
The government now sees tourism as key to the recovery of the island’s economy.
It has spent heavily to promote travel to La Palma and has given away 20,000 travel vouchers worth 250 euros to residents of Spain that can be used in hotels and restaurants on the island.

To help draw more tourists, the authorities have inaugurated a new zip-line and a visitors’ centre at the Roque de los Muchachos astronomical observatory.
It is also helping restore the tourism infrastructure.
Around 3,000 of La Palma’s 8,000 tourist beds were either destroyed in the eruption, or are located in areas that remain off limits due to dangerous levels of volcanic gases, mainly in Puerto Naos on the southwestern coast.
Hawaii and Iceland saw a similar increase in tourists after they experienced volcanic eruptions but visitor interest eventually waned and some tourism operators in La Palma expect the same to happen.
Jonas Perez, founder of Isla Bonita Tours, predicted the volcanic eruption “won’t be as fresh in people’s memory” in a few years.
“La Palma will no longer be as popular,” he said.

About the weather in Tenerife
Tenerife is the largest island of the Canary archipelago, washed by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The mysterious resort attracts with its magnificent nature, volcano, marvelous black beaches and, of course, mild climate. The island is located at the latitude of the Sahara desert, and therefore it is always warm there, but it is never hot or cold. That is why Tenerife is called “the island of eternal spring”.
But the ocean off the coast of Tenerife is always cool – an unprepared tourist who relies solely on a lazy beach holiday may be slightly disappointed by this fact. The warmest water for the whole year is in September and October.
The island fascinates with its landscapes, and the Teide volcano is especially impressive in this regard. The path to the top of the volcano is a real adventure: the views are rapidly changing – here are lush green forests, here are rare pine trees growing right on the lava, and here is the “Martian” desert, stones, thorns and snow. It is worth noting that Teide is an active volcano, but the last eruption occurred in 1909, after which the volcano acquired its present form.
It is definitely worth visiting the capital of the island, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, where the most architectural sights are the charming church of St. Francis of Assisi, the spacious Plaza of Spain, a large port, the Carta Palace on Candelaria Square, etc. In addition to Santa Cruz de Tenerife, other cities of the island deserve attention – for example, La Orotava, hidden in the volcano valley. This is a tasty morsel for lovers of antiquity, cozy cobbled streets and gingerbread houses. The city center is under the protection of UNESCO – and this is a very convincing reason to visit this place! Not far from La Orotava is the miniature park “Pueblo chico”, where you can admire small copies of the main attractions of the archipelago.
Very popular among tourists is Loro Park, where lively colorful parrots, dolphins, fur seals, penguins, sharks and a variety of fish live. Great entertainment for the whole family is the Siam Park water park, one of the largest in Europe. And in the north of Tenerife, in the town of Icod de los Vinos, a dragon tree grows, which is considered the oldest in the Canaries.

The Canaries are not always paradise. A 6-meter lava wave of 1,075 degrees is crawling across the island – September 20, 2021
Incidents
in the Canary Islands, it is planned to evacuate 5-10 thousand people.
“The evacuation from the areas of El Paso, Los Llanos de Aridane and Tazacorte has already begun in anticipation of the advance of the lava tongue, approximately 5,000 to 10,000 people will be taken out,” RIA Novosti quotes a September 20 message from the Civil Guard in “Twitter”.
The Efe agency reported 2,000 evacuees, including 500 tourists. The authorities reported about 5,000 evacuated residents of nearby municipalities. People are placed on two football fields and at a military facility.
A lava river up to 6 meters high slowly, at a speed of 0.7 km/h, moves towards the sea. Its temperature, according to the Canaries Institute of Volcanology, is 1,075 degrees. She walked through 80-100 houses, people were not injured, RIA Novosti reported, citing the government of the island.
On the afternoon of September 19, the Cumbre Vieja volcanic ridge in the municipality of El Paso began erupting on the island of Palma. Prior to that, during the week, the National Geographic Institute of Spain recorded an increase in seismic activity there – more than 25 thousand earthquakes, and on Sunday there was the most powerful shock – 4.2 on the Richter scale.
The last time the Teneguia volcano erupted on Palma was in 1971, before that, in 1949, the San Juan volcano.

Peculiarities of holidays in the Spanish islands: entry conditions and prices for tours
Ukrainians continue to look for interesting vacation destinations at affordable prices in autumn. One of these is the island of Tenerife in the Canaries, where last-minute tours are offered at an unusually low price in November.
“Now there are a lot of opportunities to visit those countries that were previously inaccessible to transport. As soon as a message appears, demand immediately arises,” says Oleksanda Panamarchuk, tour selection specialist, in a commentary to RBC-Ukraine.
For example, many Ukrainians now instead of vacationing in Egypt, where prices have doubled, are choosing to vacation in more exotic countries: Tanzania, the Dominican Republic, Portuguese Madeira or the Canary Islands.
“If earlier exotic destinations were 2-3 times more expensive, now the difference is only 30-40%. And there are times when prices are reduced, and you can relax at the price of Egypt,” the specialist notes the trend.
SkyUp launched charter flights to the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean at the end of August 27 with a frequency of three times a week.
“Islands of Eternal Spring”. What Tenerife is interesting for travelers
Tenerife is the largest island of the Canary archipelago within Spain in the Atlantic Ocean. It takes 7 hours to fly there from Ukraine.

“These are the islands of “eternal spring”, where everything is buried in flowers, there is no heat and the powerful energy of the Atlantic Ocean,” Alexandra Panamarchuk describes the direction.
The expert gives a list of “tourist magnets” that Tenerife will surprise even sophisticated travelers with:
extraordinary volcanic landscapes;
exotic forests;
black sand beaches;
picturesque Spanish villages;
varied and authentic Canarian cuisine;
UNESCO listed sites;
whales and dolphins;
Loro Park with 500 species of parrots;
luxury hotels.
Who would like to rest in the Canary Islands
Among the destinations where Ukrainian tourists went most often in autumn, Spain occupies 5-7th place among different companies. Part of the demand also applies to the Spanish island in the Canary Islands – Tenerife.
“At first, flights were announced for only two months, and popularity was extremely high. For example, the return flight for October 29 was completely sold out very early. But with the beginning of November, demand gradually decreased,” says Alexandra Panamarchuk.
According to her, in November the airline has flights to Tenerife once a week, and from January the frequency will increase to two times. At the same time in Tenerife the season lasts the whole year . There is never too hot and never cold – always comfortable weather, she notes.

Canary Islands,” the expert notes.
This is a very popular destination for active and curious tourists, for young people. It is often chosen by newlyweds for their honeymoon.
“There are hotels for every taste – from apartments and 2 stars to five-star luxury hotels. It is absolutely safe to rent a car and visit many interesting and panoramic places,” she adds.
Rules for entering the island of Tenerife: what tourists should take into account
Spain is still open for tourists, but vaccination is mandatory from November 15th. Children under 12 can enter without a certificate if accompanied by vaccinated adults.
Travelers without a vaccination certificate are not allowed to visit Spain for tourism purposes.

Vaccines recognized by the Spanish side:
Comirnaty/BionTech/Pfizer;
AstraZeneca;
Covishield;
Janssen;
Moderna;
Coronavac/Sinovac;
Sinopharm;
Spain recognizes Ukrainian vaccination certificates if they are issued with a QR code from the Diya application. It is also obligatory to fill out a “health questionnaire” (FCS) before departure (free online).
New Year’s Eve in Tenerife will cost twice as much
New Year’s tours in Tenerife will rise in price by about two times compared to autumn.
“Now the prices have come down because November is always the “low” season and a lot of people get sick. Good 4-star hotels with swimming pools have prices reduced by 20% compared to September. For example, in September, a week in a 4* hotel with half board was 54,300 hryvnias, and in 5 * – 82,700 hryvnias. Now the cheapest 5 * hotel on full board is 38,800 hryvnias for two, “she draws attention.
At the same time, prices for the New Year will almost double , she warns.

hryvnia,” says the expert.
By the way, some travel companies warn that when booking tours, an additional payment is required for gala dinners on the dates of December 24 (Catholic Christmas Eve), December 31 (New Year), and January 6 (Orthodox Christmas Eve).
“Supplement – from 140 euros per person and more. But not all hotels have gala dinners: they are not available in budget hotels,” the travel agent notes.
How much are tours in Tenerife in November 2021
We checked the cost of a holiday for two with airfare and insurance in hotels with breakfast meals from November 19-20 and chose the lowest prices.
For the company “Pilgrim” a week in a 4* hotel with breakfast will cost from 752 euros (22580 hryvnias) with a flight on 19November, from 819 euros – with a departure on November 26. In a 5 * hotel with breakfast you can relax at a price of 979 euros with a departure on November 30th. In a 5 * hotel with full board meals – from 1131 euros on the same date.
Photo: An example of the cost of tours in Tenerife in the second half of November (screenshot from the website tours.com.ua )
in a 4* hotel with breakfast for 26398 hryvnia with a departure on November 26, in a 3* hotel with breakfast the rest will cost from 26711 hryvnia for two, in a 5* hotel with breakfast – from 28751 hryvnia on the same date.
Last minute tours from the company Clever Travel are offered at a price of 578 euros in a 3 * hotel without food with a departure on November 19, in a 4 * hotel with breakfast – from 751 euros on the same date. In a 5 * hotel (without meals) you can relax at a price of 826 euros with a departure on November 26th.
Recall that we wrote that on the eve of the end of the season, tours to Antalya are offered at unusually low prices.
Meanwhile, in Egypt, the tourists found abnormal weather with heavy rains.

The climate of the Canary Islands is changing | Tenerife Today
Leal Theater hosted a scientific conference on global warming and the impact of this process on the climate of the Canary Islands.
Emilio Cuevas, Director of the Center for Atmospheric Research (a branch of the national meteorological organization Aemet), was the keynote speaker who expressed his concerns about global warming in the Canary Islands. According to him, scientific research and statistics over the past 10 years allow us to conclude that geophysical activity, such as earthquakes and volcano activity, behaves relatively stable and is under control, but the frequency of meteorological disasters has increased significantly in recent years. This trend has been manifesting in the Canary Islands since the early 00s in the form of sudden heat waves, strong winds and frequent storms.
Global warming
According to the Spanish meteorological office Aemet, temperatures in the Canary Islands have been rising steadily since 1990. June 2017 was the hottest June in 102 years, and the next month, July, was also exceptionally warm in decades. “First of all, research shows that minimum temperatures are rising and maximum temperatures are falling. This means that the fluctuations become smaller. Most of all, these changes are noticeable in the southern parts of the island and in mountainous areas, as there are more hot days.
All of these are clear signs of global warming, Cuevas explained.
— In this vein, the possibility of observing climate change in Tenerife is of great scientific importance to us. This is a kind of visual aid for studying global warming across the country. After all, this island is a miniature mainland – Tenerife has various climatic zones, ranging from coastal regions to the highest peak in Spain at an altitude of 3718 meters above sea level.
According to meteorologists, the weather in the Canary Islands is becoming more and more similar to the weather in Hawaii. We can say that these two archipelagos, although they are located in different parts of the world, have a lot in common. And now they are united not only by volcanic origin and related features, but also by weather conditions. Therefore, experts believe that it is necessary to take measures that have long been used in Hawaii to protect the environment and control global warming.
“What climate conditions we will have in 2040 depends on the measures we take now, and when I say now, I mean right now.
If we apply the right levers today and noticeably reduce pollutant emissions, we can ensure that the climate remains at an acceptable level in the second half of this century. If we continue to do nothing, between 2040 and 2100 our descendants will face adverse consequences in the form of natural disasters, Cuevas argues. “Today, hurricanes such as the Delta that hit the Canary Islands in late November 2005 are still rare in the archipelago, but in the near future, devastating hurricanes and severe tropical storms could appear all over the world, and our islands are no exception.”
In addition, according to Cuevas, the already frequent “sand fogs” called “calima” caused by the wind blowing from the Sahara are expected to appear even more frequently in the future. It is interesting that the specialist associates the exceptional reproduction of blue-green algae, which filled the coastal waters of the archipelago this summer, with Kalima. “Fine sand is an ideal fertilizer for algae. And together with UV radiation, which has also increased in the archipelago in recent years, Kalima creates excellent conditions for ocean blooms.”
Meteorological control
At present, weather forecasts for the archipelago are based on data transmitted by a radar located in Gran Canaria. However, according to Emilio Cuevas, if the weather comes from the northwest, the measuring station is in the shadow of the Teide, and therefore the data is difficult to intercept. This can lead to erroneous data and incorrect predictions. It is planned that for the successful work of meteorologists who are responsible for monitoring the weather in the Canary Islands, in the future, another radar station will be installed on the northwest coast of Tenerife, in the Isla Baja area, not far from the town of Buenavista.
In addition, a disaster relief office will soon be set up in the capital of Santa Cruz. This will be the point through which Tenerife residents who suffer damage from natural events such as extreme rainfall or winds can apply for assistance and compensation for lost property. These expenses will be financed from the state treasury, and the budget fund for this item of assistance to citizens has already been approved.
Impact on marine life
Climate change is not only affecting the weather, but also the oceans and associated marine diversity. “Over the past 20 years, the water temperature around the Canary Islands has risen between 0.5 and 1 degree Celsius. Also, over the past 13 years, sea levels have risen by about 10 centimeters. In addition, there is an increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the water, ocean acidification and increased UV radiation. Together, this affects marine organisms and ecosystems,” says Alberto Diaz, lecturer in marine biology and zoology at the University of La Laguna.
In addition, the expert agreed with Emilio Cuevas and confirmed that “the huge carpets of algae that we saw last summer are clearly due to factors such as the high concentration of sand in the air and the increase in UV radiation. They have nothing to do with raw sewage.”
Observations of water temperatures between 1948 and 2016 clearly show that they are increasing overall. This is especially noticeable in the south of the archipelago. In the summer of 2017, Atlantic waters peaked at 26 degrees Celsius. All these factors contribute to the formation of blue-green algae, but this is only the visible side.
Changes in marine life associated with rising temperatures are less obvious. Along with algae, they include, for example, a sharp decline in the number of coral reefs. In Tenerife, only the corals left from the Anaga massif are preserved. El Hierro has already lost about 80% of its coral colonies. This has a decisive impact on the underwater landscape and biodiversity.
Another consequence could be the development of cyanobacteria, which, in addition to polluting the ocean, can affect the quality of fish and seafood.
Today, only 10 cases of edible fish contamination have been reported in the archipelago, but it is already important to develop a rapid test to detect possible risks in the fishing industry.

Where to stay in Playa de Las Americas depends on the type of holiday you wish to have. If you’re looking for a quiet and relaxing holiday, renting a holiday apartment might be the better choice for you. The further away you stay from the main strip, the quieter it will be.
We would recommend Playa de Las Americas as a place to stay in Tenerife if you’re after a lively resort, with lots of options for bars and restaurants and you plan to go out every night.
The weather in Tenerife is great all year round and you can swim even in winter, although especially for the months of January, February and March we would recommend booking a place with a heated pool. If you’re undecided about when to visit, read our article about the best time to visit Tenerife.

50th Anniversary of the first hotel in Playa de Las Americas –
7/10/22, 9:12 AM
By Canarian Weekly
Tenerife
Today is the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Gran Tinerfe, the first hotel built in Playa de Las Américas, which became the beacon of the intentions of Catalan industrialist Rafael Puig Llivina, and his son Santiago Puig Serratusell, to create a major tourist destination in the south of the island in the middle of a desert.
Puig arrived in Tenerife in 1965 and fell in love with the island, and after the approval of the first and second phases of the Playa de Las Américas Urbanisation Plan in 1968, which saw the construction of the first apartments in the area: Acapulco, Copacabana, Viña del Mar, Bungamérica, Troya, and Paraíso del Sol, decided to attract investors to build four-star hotels to add value to the area and attract a more select visitor profile.
The strategy paid off and the Gran Tinerfe began to be built by businessman Cándido Luis García Sanjuán, owner of the emblematic Tenerife Playa hotel, which opened in Puerto de la Cruz in the early 1960s.
His involvement had special value as he was the only hotelier with interests in the north of the island who envisioned prosperity in the south. Most businessmen, even having liquidity, experience and contacts with tour operators, let the opportunity pass, because they did not fully believe in the future of the area in Adeje and Arona.
The Puig family put an offer to García Sanjuán that he couldn’t refuse, selling him the land next to Bobo beach for 500 pesetas (3 euros) per square metre, with all the basic services installed. However, it was one thing to buy the site and another for the huge economic effort involved in building an emblematic hotel.
Although its design wasn’t ground breaking, the magnitude of the construction became a symbol of modernisation for the region, and the 360-room Gran Tinerfe opened its doors on 10th July 1972, with its two lake-shaped pools designed by the legendary artist from Lanzarote, César Manrique.
A few months after its opening, the hotel received a visit that meant great support for the new tourist destination of Tenerife, when the then Prince of Spain, Juan Carlos and Sofía, stayed in its facilities for four days, with his three children.
The Gran Tinerfe was the magnet that Santiago Puig needed to attract new investors. The following two hotels didn’t take long to arrive: the Troya in 1973 built by the Barcelona-based hotel chain Hesperia, and the Europa, at the end of 1974, thanks to the investment of the German businessman Karl F. Gassmann and his son Axel.
The Gran Tinerfe and surrounding hotels in 1976
But long before the foundations for the hotel and non-hotel facilities in Playa de Las Américas were laid, hard work had to be done, starting from scratch to lay the foundations for the basic infrastructure of the resort.
In June 1966, the company Playa de Las Américas SA was incorporated and work began at a frenetic pace at a time when Central European and Nordic tourism was beginning to fill the incipient accommodation facilities on the Mediterranean coast and in Puerto de la Cruz.
The Puig family took over the installation of water pipes, ceded two plots of land to Telefónica and to the electricity company Unelco for the installation of a power plant and a substation, and participated in the construction of two treatment plants, and planted 5,000 palm trees imported from Elche in mainland Spain.
Given the economic precariousness of the municipalities, in the following 15 years, he faced all the necessary fronts to guarantee the viability of the project. In addition to selling plots, looking for and trying to convince developers, Santiago Puig supplied the water, covered the costs of public lighting, planted green areas, paved streets, and took care of the sewage system and pumping stations.
Today, 50 years after the opening of its first hotel, Playa de Las Américas is one of the main tourist destinations in Spain and Europe. A reality that was difficult to imagine when Rafael Puig Llivina and his son Santiago landed for the first time in Tenerife after the director of a Barcelona bank suggested the Catalan industrialist explore the possibility of developing the south of Tenerife for tourism.
Previously, the builder Luis Díaz de Losada and the landowner Antonio Domínguez Alfonso had told the Catalan banker their intention to carry out a project that sounded reckless and that required a brave, almost heroic, investor. The rest, as they say, is history!

4 and 5 star hotels in Tenerife in Las Americas
In the south of Tenerife there is a popular resort Las Americas, which is chosen for recreation by both young people and families with children. Speaking of Las Americas, it should be understood that the neighboring resorts of Costa Adeje and Los Cristianos have long since merged with the more famous neighbor, so in the review of hotels I will combine these resorts into a single whole.
There are various hotels in Las Americas: from simple apartments to luxurious hotel complexes. I have collected some good hotels in Las Americas, and if you are used to good and comfortable hotels, then this review is for you.

La Concha beach, Fuerteventura, perfect for the whole family
Fuerteventura entices you to come and enjoy its coastline. The oldest of the Canary Islands (geologically speaking) has around 150 kilometres of shores with typical volcanic and black pebble beaches, and fine, white sand beaches too. El Cotillo, a small fishing village in the north-west of the island, is home to La Concha beach (not to be confused with the beach of the same name on the Island of Lobos), an idyllic spot considered by many to be the best beach on the island. In addition, it combines the charm of unspoilt coves with the ease of visiting a well-serviced beach. Join us below on a virtual tour around La Concha beach to discover all its nooks and crannies.
La Concha, a multi-coloured beach in Fuerteventura
Over the past few years, La Conchabeach has sporadically flown the prized Blue Flag above its shores, an award given to beaches and ports that comply with certain requirements concerning information, environmental management, water quality, safety and services.
The beach is really easy to reach: from the village of El Cotillo follow the directions on a sign that points you towards Los Lagos, Playas, Faro; after 700 metres another turning to the left leads you directly to a car park right next to the beach.
Free cancellation
La Concha beach is probably most famous for its huge range of colours: the turquoise blue ocean contrasts with fine, white sand that is dotted with chunks of black volcanic rock. La Concha isn’t usually too crowded so you can easily find a good spot to set up camp—you’ll soon notice two important factors here: the wind and the surf. La Concha is a fairly windy beach, something that locals have tried to combat by building corralitos, small arches of volcanic rock that break up the wind. In fact, some of the corralitos that are scattered along the shore are large enough for a whole family to fit inside.
Paradoxically, surf is sometimes practically non-existent here thanks to a natural horseshoe-shaped reef offshore that functions like a protective shield. This means that a huge number of marine animals live in the water so scuba-diving is very popular and highly recommended.
La Concha Beach
What’s more, the International Kite Festival has been held at La Concha each year since 1987. This competition sees 450 kites from different countries around the world flutter in the skies and decorate the shores of this beach in El Cotillo, adding to its charm.
Finally, make sure you don’t miss the sunset at the end of your day of relaxation and exploration: at this point on Fuerteventura’s coastline the skies turn a mysterious shade halfway between lilac and blue.
La Concha beach, all the services you need in El Cotillo
La Concha beach succeeds in retaining the beauty of an unspoilt beach but has all kinds of services for beach-goers at the same time. Wooden walkways make it easier to reach the sand for people with pushchairs or wheelchairs. There are also public toilets and showers if you want to wash off any annoying sand before leaving.
And if you fancy a bite after long hours on the beach, Bar Torino is close to the car park, a beach bar that serves dishes typical to the area, such as ‘wrinkled potatoes’ with mojo sauce or fresh grilled fish. However, if you’d prefer a table and tablecloth, Italian and Mediterranean restaurant Azzurro Chill Out is just 300 metres away and it has a full menu, a long wine list and live music.
La Concha Beach
Other El Cotillo beaches at a glance
La Concha beach, also known among locals as Playa Chica, is especially enchanting due its diminutive size. However, at 200 metres long and 60 metres wide, this does mean that people who love strolling along the seashore might be a bit disappointed. But there’s no need to worry! El Cotillo has many other beaches apart from La Concha and they can all be walked along as part of a 4-kilometre long route.
For example, Los Lagos beach is connected to La Concha to the south; this family beach is similar in appearance to La Concha but is unusual because small natural pools form among its rocks so swimming here is a real adventure.
You’ll find two other beaches in the opposite direction, to the north: El Islote and El Río. They also have similar characteristics to Los Lagos and La Concha, however, El Islote and El Río are both unspoilt and isolated without any kind of nearby services. They’re a great option if you’re interested in naturism.
And if you continue bordering the coast northwards, after 2.5 km you’ll come to El Tostón lighthouse, which was built on Punta Ballena in 1897. In 2008, the lighthouse building was converted into the Traditional Fishing Museum, a collection of original pieces that aims to reveal the historical importance of fishing on the island. In addition, the views from this spot get better and better as the sun rises and sets.

10 Best things to do in El Cotillo, Fuerteventura
One of the beautiful lagoons in El Cotillo
El Cotillo used to be a small fishing village in Fuerteventura and nowadays it’s a quiet place for a holiday on the island, with plenty of amazing beaches nearby, some of each are ideal for surfers.
El Cotillo is situated on the northwest coast of Fuerteventura and it’s home to some of the best beaches on the island. La Concha beach was voted among the most beautiful beaches in Europe by Tripadvisor users and it is truly a small paradise, with all the lagoons and crystal clear waters. The village offers some nice hotels and good restaurants, and it’s usually a quiet place, in comparison with other resorts on the island like Corralejo.

1. La Concha beach
2. El Cotillo lagoons
3. Surfing in El Cotillo
4. Playa del Castillo (Piedra Playa)

What to do in El Cotillo
The village gained lots of popularity in the last years, and it is all because of the beautiful landscape, which is so peaceful and relaxing.
The beaches are the main attractions in El Cotillo, especially Playa de La Concha, ideal for families, which is easy to find and offers easy car parking. From here you can continue your road towards the lagoons in El Cotillo, a series of small beaches, very private and with beautiful white sand.
1. La Concha beach
La Concha Beach – El Cotillo’s most popular beach and one of the best in Fuerteventura
La Concha beach is featured on many postcards of Fuerteventura and it’s been named as one of the most beautiful beaches in Europe by Tripadvisor and many other travel publications.
The white sand, turquoise water, the view… everything makes it idyllic and a great place to visit in El Cotillo.
One thing we need to mention about Playa de la Concha is that it’s often quite windy here and there are no sunbeds or umbrellas for hire. If you plan to spend several hours here you should bring your own beach tent or parasol, otherwise, you will definitely get a sunburn. Also, the beach looks different depending on the tide, so when the tide is high the water gets deep quickly and when the tide is low, it’s a great place to be with kids, as they can fully enjoy this beautiful beach.
There are no restaurants or shops on the beach, so it’s recommended to bring something with you to eat and drink.
2. El Cotillo lagoons
El Cotillo Lagoons
The lagoons are El Cotillo’s own collection of private beaches, secluded, with wonderful calm waters, ideal also for families with small children.
You can get here by car or on foot, and it is worth spending here at least a few hours to explore around the lagoons.
We love coming here at low tide in summer, when the water is warm, with almost no waves and it is probably the calmest image you will see of the Atlantic Ocean.
There are no bars or shops, so if you plan to spend the day here it is advisable to bring some snacks or you will have to go back to El Cotillo in order to have lunch.
People come here because of the wild and untouched landscape, where you can admire the true beauty of Fuerteventura, with its marvelous beaches and endless dunes of sand.
3. Surfing in El Cotillo
El Cotillo is one of the best spots for surfing in Fuerteventura and there are people coming here also from Lajares, Corralejo and all over the island, just to ride the great ocean waves.
If you’re inexperienced and you want to learn, El Cotillo is a great place to be in Fuerteventura, as there are many local surfing schools to choose from. In El Cotillo, you can also try SUP or kitesurfing, as the location of the village is ideal for water sports in general.
4. Playa del Castillo (Piedra Playa)
Piedra Playa in El Cotillo
If you are interested in surfing, then once you get to El Cotillo village you should head left, towards Playa del Castillo, also known as Playa Piedra. This beach is extremely popular among surfers in El Cotillo but you can also enjoy the views and the landscape even if you don’t surf.
Continuing from Playa Piedra there are 2 more beaches which are wild and with big waves, also ideal for surfing.
5. Castillo de El Toston
On your way to Playa Piedra, you will pass Castillo de El Toston (Castillo del Cotillo), which is a small circular structure, which can be visited for a small entrance fee of 1,5 euros. You will find out more about Fuerteventura’s history and it also has beautiful views of the ocean.
6. El Cotillo lighthouse
El Cotillo Lighthouse, officially known as Faro El Toston (El Toston Lighthouse)
On the road towards the lagoons, about 5 km from El Cotillo, you will pass by El Toston Lighthouse, where you will find a small museum and a cafe.
The Traditional Fishing Museum is showcasing aspects of traditional fishing in Fuerteventura and also offers panoramic 360 degrees views towards the ocean and also Lanzarote.
It is open from Tuesday to Saturday from 10 am till 6 pm.
Entrance fee: 3 Euros
7. El Cotillo Market
Every Friday evening there is a small market in El Cotillo. It’s a nice place to look around for souvenirs and maybe afterward, get dinner and watch the beautiful sunset in El Cotillo.
8. Watch the sunset
Since the village is situated on the west coast, El Cotillo is the best place to admire one of the most dramatic sunsets in Fuerteventura, so even if you are staying somewhere else on the island, it is worth visiting El Cotillo just to be able to see the sunset and the colors of the sky at golden hour.
9. Fuerteventura en Musica (FEM)
FEM is an annual event organized on the beach in El Cotillo.
The entrance is free and it’s a really popular music festival especially among the Spaniards, who come from all over Spain in order to attend. It’s a really nice and chilled vibe and it lasts for 2 days (Friday and Saturday).
10. Discover the bars and restaurants in El Cotillo
La Vaca Azul is a well-known restaurant in Fuerteventura, and there are people coming to the village just to eat here. You will find fresh fish and seafood, great serving and nice views from the terrace. It is easy to find, there are signs that guide you to the restaurant.
Azzurro is another good restaurant, which is a bit harder to find, on the road that takes to Faro El Toston.
It serves both Spanish and Italian dishes, also with fresh fish and seafood.
Places to stay in El Cotillo
El Cotillo does not have many hotels like the bigger resorts, so private apartment rentals are the most popular options in terms of accommodation.
You can find lots of nice apartments in El Cotillo on Airbnb, with breathtaking ocean views, which would offer you more privacy than a hotel, a fully fitted kitchen and more space than a hotel room.
The most popular hotel in the village is by far the Hotel Cotillo Beach, a 3 stars hotel with beautiful ocean views. All the rooms have a balcony and pretty spacious and the location is ideal if you like surfing, since you will be close to some of the best locations in Fuerteventura. There are some mixed reviews about this hotel, especially regarding the food served, so you should take this into consideration. However, if you are decided to stay near El Cotillo beach, then this is one of your best choices.

When is the best time to visit your property for the perfect beach holiday?
The Canary Islands is a place that can be visited all year round because of their fantastic weather.
The best time for the perfect beach holidays is from April-May to October, but the rest of the months is also good weather and more calm because there are less tourists.

El Cotillo Beaches & lagoons
The El Cotillo beaches and El Cotillo lagoons are a great draw for people staying all over the island and are one of El Cotillo’s greatest assets. Although many people refer to them just as El Cotillo beach, there are actually many more than just one beach around the village (Playa del Cotillo if you are Spanish or spiaggia El Cotillo if Italian).
In fact, El Cotillo beaches provide probably the widest variety of beaches anywhere on the island. They comprise, without doubt, some of the best beaches in Fuerteventura. They are so diverse that there is definitely an El Cotillo beach to suite everyone’s taste – whether you like your beaches quiet or busy or perhaps small or large beaches.
You may just like to lie on the sand, or in a fox hole, with the occasional dip in the calm waters of the lagoon beaches. If you like to be more active and do some surfing then head for the water sports beach (Piedra Playa) with its 1.5km of sand and some great waves.
Fortunately, you will not find row upon row of sunbeds, umbrellas, or any of the other tourist rubbish, found on some other beaches in Fuerteventura. Just wonderful, natural, unspoiled beaches with lovely sand and clear water.
El Cotillo Beaches Map
El Cotillo Beaches Map
The beaches to the north of El Cotillo
To get to these beaches on foot. If you are arriving in El Cotillo on the no 8 bus from Corralejo then stay on it when it gets to the bus station and then get off at the bus stop through El Cotillo village, near the Cotillo Beach Hotel. You will see the start of the beaches when you get off so just head for those and walk along the various small beaches until you find one you like. It will take you about 10 minutes gentle stroll to get to La Concha Beach.
To get to these beaches by car. When you arrive in El Cotillo you will see the football ground on the right (with floodlights) so drive past this and take the first right hand turn which is signposted to Faro de Toston (the lighthouse) and there is a new large El Cotillo sign (more like a sculpture) at this junction. Follow that road through the village and past the Cotillo Beach Hotel (on your right). After another 500 metres the road turns 90º left and the runs along the coast behind the beaches. The most popular la Concha Beach is opposite the Azzurro restaurant with its own car park behind it.
La Concha Beach (Playa de la Concha)
La Concha Beach
Playa de la Concha Fuerteventura is the most popular of the El Cotillo lagoon beaches (La concha = the shell). It is just to the north of the village, on the road towards the lighthouse or a nice stroll from the village along the smaller beaches before it.
It takes the form of a small bay with lovely white sand and has calm waters as it is protected from the big waves by rocky reefs just offshore. This makes it great for children, swimming and snorkelling.
During very high spring tides a shallow lagoon forms just behind the beach which is ideal for small children to play in.
This El Cotillo beach has to be one of the safest and best swimming beaches in Fuerteventura.
There are toilets and showers at the back of this beach.
Sue enjoying a paddle on La Concha Beach
This is a link to a live Playa de la Concha webcam so you can see up to the minute what it is like, how busy it is and whether the sun is shining!
Also at the back of the La Concha beach is a car park. This car park is where the annual Fuerteventura Music Festival takes place in July.
Although naturists can be found anywhere on Playa de la Concha they generally stick to the right-hand (north) side, near the rocks.
The only beach bar in El Cotillo, Torino’s, is located at the back of La Concha beach.
It is family run and serves fresh fish and many say makes the best paella in the village and perhaps even the best in Fuerteventura.
Torino
It is a very popular place on a sunny day to chill out with a beer or to have lunch. Also a lovely spot to watch the sunset. See Torino’s Facebook page for further details.
UPDATE: Sadly, the morons at the town hall have closed and dismantled Torino’s beach bar after 22 years, as well as two bars on the beaches in Corralejo. This is for “environmental reasons” which is code for the corrupt officials can make more money in another way.
My video of a walk along the beaches described below from El Cotillo to Torino’s for a drink.
The first beaches north of the village
The view from our honeymoon Marfolin apartment of the first beaches looking towards Playa de la Concha. The tide is out.
Between the village and Playa de la Concha are a series of small white sand beaches, all very sheltered from any waves, so ideal for a quick early morning dip. These are popular with families as they are a shorter walk I guess.
The popular Marfolin apartments, Cotillo Sunset Apartments and El Balcon apartments have direct access to the first El Cotillo beach to the north. When we staying in one of the El Balcon apartments, some years ago, my morning ritual was to get up, make myself a coffee and then walk into the sea up to my knees and drink it. Not a bad way to start the day.
First beach on the edge of El Cotillo going north towards La Concha beach
Caleton Beach
This is so called because of the small complex of Caleton apartments right on the edge of the beach. It is a small, but nevertheless, lovely beach. It is a great place to swim, although at low tide almost all of the water disappears. This beach is often frequented by naturists. Many naturists stay in the Caleton apartments.
Caleton Beach (Caleton apartments at the back of the beach)
There is a well-known rock pool which forms to the south (left) of the beach when the tide goes out that is always full of fish.
Rock pool on Caleton Beach
El Cotillo Lagoons
The lagoons (los lagos) extend from Caleton Beach pretty much all the way to the lighthouse and then on along the north shore almost to Corralejo. This includes the quirky Popcorn beach.
The lighthouse
There are lots of little beaches among the rocks with many of the stone circles to sunbathe in to keep out of the wind. For those that like to explore the minute world of rock pools there are many to be found among the rocks with small fish, crabs, shrimps and even the odd sea cucumber if you look closely.
This is the area most often used by naturists in El Cotillo as it is the most out of the way area but clothed and unclothed sun worshippers co-exist quite happily.
The beaches to the south of El Cotillo
To get to these beaches on foot. If you are arriving in El Cotillo by bus then get off at the bus station. The first beach, Piedra Playa, is only a few minutes walk along the cliff. Just walk past the Toston Tower and keep going. To get to Steps Beach will take you around 15 to 20 minutes along the cliff path.
To get to these beaches by car. The easiest way to get to these beaches is when you arrive in El Cotillo take the first turning on the left (next to the Dragon China 2012 shop and opposite the Superdino supermarket). Follow this road around a right hand bend until you get to the junction. Turn left there and follow this well maintained track which passes behind all of the beaches. You can turn off and park at various places to access different parts of the Surfer’s beach or continue on to Steps Beach.
Surfers’ Beach / Piedra Playa /Playa del Castillo
Piedra Playa/Surfers’ Beach
Just south of the village is the Piedra Playa (Stone Beach) also known as both the Wild Beach and Surfers’ Beach locally and is shown as Playa del Castillo on many maps. Despite its name it does have lots of lovely soft sand – 1.5km of it in fact. It is less than a 10 minute walk from the new harbour.
This is the most popular beach for water sports including surfers, kite surfers and wind surfers. Many surf and kite surf schools operate from this beach. Having said that it is still popular with sunbathers and families, particularly at the El Cotillo end.
There is a lifeguard station and a flag indicating whether it is safe for swimming or not.
This is a link to a live Piedra Playa Beach webcam so you can see how busy it is, what the waves are like and whether the sun is shining!
Nature is wonderful as most winters there is a large storm with big waves and much of the sand on this beach gets washed away. Within a couple of months the beach repairs itself which I find quite incredible.
2nd beach going south
Our feet on this beach a few years ago
There is another beach just around the southern headland of the Surfer’s Beach that can often be reached at low tide by walking along the base of the cliff. It may have a name but I am not aware what it is.
If you are as nimble as a mountain goat you can also follow a steep path down the cliff to reach it.
If you go around the cliffs at low tide then you may need to go up the cliff path to get out if you get caught out by the rising tide. So be careful!
There was a well-known English man called Billie who lived on a flat area half way up the cliff in a makeshift shelter for many years. He died unfortunately a few years ago.
Steps Beach / Playa de Escaleras
Steps Beach
This beach is quite a walk, as it is 4km south of the village, so is best reached in a car, along the coast track (you can’t call it a road).
Steps beach is accessed down a set of Heath Robinson type steps, built by a German guy many years ago I believe – hence the name. It is the least accessible of all the El Cotillo beaches but certainly worth the effort to visit. See photo below.
Steps to get down to Steps Beach
It is a wonderful beach with beautiful sand and is generally not very busy, even in the summer. It is the best beach in Fuerteventura I think.
The stairs have recently been renovated which is great news.
Beach Webcams
There a few webcams in El Cotillo showing the beaches and the sea so you can see the state of the waves etc.
Piedra Playa Webcam – this is positioned in the Seahorse bar facing across the bay towards the beach
Playa de la Concha Webcam – this webcam is located at the Azzurro restaurant opposite the beach
The Other Beaches
The Old Harbour Beach
Old Harbour Beach
The Old Harbour Beach is used occasionally and mainly by locals. It is quite popular in August, particularly during the fiesta. On the first Sunday of the fiesta this is where the Virgin is transported from.
The New Harbour “Beach”
The smallest El Cotillo beach is a very small pebbly beach next to the quay in the new harbour. You can reach it either by walking through the harbour or follow the path down from the road above, opposite the Seahorse bar.
El Cotillo Beaches Naturist Information
Many of the El Cotillo beaches in and around the village are naturist friendly, with the exception of the beach in the old harbour. The further north towards the lighthouse you go, the more naturist the beaches become. They are some of the most popular nudist beaches in Fuerteventura Canary Islands.
The El Cotillo lagoons are probably the quietest of the Fuerteventura naturist beaches making them popular with many Fuerteventura naturists. As they are secluded with plenty of private areas they are suitable for people wanting to try naturism discretely first before trying more populated beaches.
The most popular of the El Cotillo beaches, La Concha beach, is a mixture of textile and naturist. Naturists tend to go towards the right hand side of the beach. Some days it is more naturist than others. The theory is that it depends on who arrives first. Many couples are happy to either be nude or wear something so if there are no naturists to be seen when they arrive they wear something but if there are some they join in.
The Surfers’ Beach/Piedra Playa used to be more naturist than it is now, particularly towards the far end away from the village. However, the beach is much busier these days, particularly with surf schools, so it is less naturist now.
If you go further south to Steps Beach then there are usually plenty of naturists as it is rarely busy. It is the least visited of the El Cotillo beaches so usually the quietest.
I have written an article on my Fuerteventura website about the naturist beaches of Fuerteventura and naturist accommodation which includes a Fuerteventura naturist beach map.

JP in Fuerteventura( Site Owner )
I have been holidaying in Fuerteventura for over 30 years and first came to El Cotillo 15 years ago. I owned an apartment in El Cotillo for 10 years and now live with my wife, Sue, and dog, Jenson, just 5 miles away. El Cotillo is my favourite place in Fuerteventura.
TOP 5 beaches in Spain
In Spain there is everything to ensure that even the most spoiled and sophisticated tourists get full pleasure from their vacation. A separate item on this list is beautiful, picturesque and incredibly numerous beaches of all types, shapes and sizes. Moreover, due to the fact that the country includes several islands, beach tours to Spain are in demand throughout the year.
The total length of the Spanish coastline is almost 5000 km, but the exact number is there are no beaches in Spain . But it is known that in 2021 this country once again retained its leadership in the number of beaches marked with the Blue Flag. At the moment, there are 615 beaches in the country that have been awarded this honorary European award!
We at Deluxe Voyage are working to ensure that you get the most out of your holiday in Spain, so we have compiled the TOP 5 best, in our opinion, beaches in countries that deserve your attention.
La Concha Beach, Basque Country
La Concha Beach, Basque Country
Located in the northern city of San Sebastian, this beach regularly ranks at the top of TripAdvisor’s travel platform and is included among the “12 Treasures of Spain” , and is also included in the rating of best beaches in Europe, compiled by the English edition of The Guardian. He deserved such unprecedented popularity due to a number of factors.
Name La Concha means “shell” in Spanish, and this is no coincidence. This is the shape of the bay, along the coast of which the specified beach stretches. Its length is 1350 meters, and the average width is 40 meters (during high tides, its area is reduced). The beach is covered with sand and surrounded by mountains, which perfectly protect it from wind and waves.
Along the beach is La Concha Promenade – the city’s promenade, which is always filled with vacationers. Sunbathers can be seen on the beach all year round, and some daredevils dare to swim here even in winter.
Playa de Illetas, Formentera
Playa de Illetas, Formentera
Reviews about this beach are usually full of superlative adjectives: it is called the most attractive, cleanest, most picturesque, stunning, etc. Playa de Illetas is located on the small island of Formentera , part of the Balearic Islands . This relatively small beach (its length is about 500 meters) is famous for its amazingly clear, azure water, the finest “powdery” white sand and picturesque landscapes.
Playa de Illetas is called one of the best places to relax in Spain with children: the sea is shallow here, the coast is very gentle, so the water is always perfectly warmed up. In addition, there are no noisy bars and restaurants, so you can fully enjoy the sounds of waves and wind on the beach.
Playa de Muro, Mallorca
Playa de Muro, Mallorca
In the bay of Alcudia, 62 km from the capital of the island of Mallorca – the city of Palma, there is a beach Playa de Muro . It is located on the territory of the natural park “Parque Natural S’Albufera” and is surrounded by pines and juniper thickets, which create a special atmosphere here. The beach stretches for 9km, it is covered with the purest golden sand and has a very gentle coast. The territory of the beach is conditionally divided into three parts: the western and central parts are more comfortable, several hotels have been built along them, and there is the necessary infrastructure. The eastern section is ideal for active beach lovers in Spain, in particular for sailing, water skiing and paragliding.
Playa del Duque, Tenerife

PLAYA DE COFETE BEACH, FUERTEVENTURA, CANARY ISLANDS
the ocean of an island, remote and most likely uninhabited.
We hasten to please – there is such an island much closer, this is Fuerteventura and its Cofete beach. That’s where a variety of bizarre shapes and colors, that’s where you can turn on the fantasy at the highest power.
What to do? On this beach you can walk for hours without the risk of meeting at least one person. The beach is secluded, which allowed it to keep its nature completely untouched.
How to get there: you can get to the beach by car along the road leading from the only settlement on the island – the village of Kofete. Or use a bike. It’s worth it: your only companion will be the mountains of Jandia.
The oldest Barceloneta is more of a lifestyle than just a sunbathing and swimming area. It is located in its historical part, 15 minutes from Las Ramblas, is especially loved by young travelers and is hardly suitable for a quiet family vacation. During the day, young people indulge in playing football, volleyball, tennis, rollerblading, skateboarding and jet skis, and at sunset they fill the numerous taverns, cafes and bars located on the waterfront. Despite the glory of the party center, Barceloneta is annually awarded the “blue flag” of quality, the entrance to the sea here is long and gentle, and the fine sand is mostly clean and golden.
La Concha is located in the capital of the Basque Country, between the rocky outcrop of Pico del Loro and the port, and proudly bears the title of one of the most famous city beaches in the world. 1350 meters of fine golden sand, the perfect shape of a sea shell and the emerald color of the water brought her fame as the most beautiful on the coast. The sea here is shallow, subject to ebbs and flows, but the rocks surrounding the bay prevent the formation of high waves, so tourists relax here all year round, even during the winter months. Among the favorite pastimes of beachgoers are windsurfing, surfing, kayaking, beach football, as well as tasting delicacies in famous restaurants overlooking the bay and Santa Clara Island.
a young tourist destination in Spain, which until recently was not known to the general public. Popular coastal resorts are Benicassim, Oropesa del Mar, Benicarlo, Vinaros, Peniscola. Every year, in July, Benicassim hosts a grandiose music festival – FIB. It gathers the most famous performers of the world performing in different genres. That is why many tourists come here just to be part of this event. The main action takes place on the Costa del Azaar. The best beach in this area is Oropesa del Mar. In addition to music, it pleases with delightful landscapes, picturesque bays and a wide coastline that stretches for 1400 m.
there are still places barely known even to the locals. A natural park in the Ebro Delta, 40 km from the Catalan city of Reus and a two-hour drive from Barcelona, is one of them.
The local sandy beaches are relatively few people and they are perfect for those who like to sunbathe, listening to the sound of the surf, and not the chatter of neighbors on the beach. And a little to the south is the long sandy spit of Trabucado, which will be just right for fans of kitesurfing and windsurfing.
Crystal clear turquoise water and white sandy beach make the Bay d’Algaraens a place of truly unearthly beauty. Strong winds often blow in these parts, and therefore large waves are not uncommon. On the west coast of the bay there is a great place for fishing, and Menorcans often go here for picnics. If you want to find this paradise beach untouched, hurry up – more and more people come here every year.
A real relaxed atmosphere reigns here: hot sun, gentle sea, warm white sand, amazing nature. The beach is not crowded, which will appeal not only to family tourists with children, but also, for example, lovers of yoga and meditation. There are neither loud beach parties nor a large number of bars.
All that is here is pretty nature and excellent landscapes. Costa Calma is generally one of the greenest places on the island of Fuerteventura. Lush vegetation is everywhere, which is not typical for arid Fuerteventura.
What to do? It is noteworthy that the beach actually consists of five beaches: La Barca, Risco del Paso, Mirador, Malombre and Los Canarios. Strong winds blow on the Sotavento beach in spring and summer, which also attracts surfers.
How to get there: beach stretches from the town of Morro del Jable to the very border of the Jandia peninsula. Getting here is very simple – the road from Fuerteventura Airport to any of the settlements of the Jandia Peninsula will take no more than an hour, and even less to Morro Jable – 25 minutes.
The sandy beach of Es Trenc is popular among those vacationers who are bored with places close to local hotels.

The coastline here is washed with the aromas of pines and rosemary, sheltered from strong winds and waves and covered with the same soft golden sand as most of the Costa Dorada. Due to the gentle slope, the absence of noisy bars and a convenient descent into the sea, this place is often chosen by family travelers. In addition to swimming, active beachgoers can go wakeboarding, windsurfing and snorkeling, ride a boat or catamaran, or try parasailing.
there was a barren desert in these places, now Duque beach is one of the visiting cards of the city of Costa Adeje.

PLAYA DE BOLOGNA BEACH, CADIS, ANDALUSIA
Another “character” from the series “conquered with its beauty”. The beach is really magnificent and falls in love with itself from the first minutes. So you can lie all day and dissolve in nature. Lovers of complete harmony will also be fine here – at the southern end of the beach you can sunbathe naked.
What to do? If you want to diversify your vacation, go on an educational walk. Near the beach are the ruins of the Roman city of Baelo Claudia, which is perfectly preserved for its 2000-year-old age, and the medieval fortress on the shores of the Strait of Gibraltar in the town of Tarifa.
How to get there: beach is located in the town of Bologna. It consists of only twenty houses, so you won’t be able to pass by a picturesque cozy bay with a snow-white sandy shore. It is more convenient to get to the village from Malaga airport, by bus or taxi. Travel time is 1.5 hours. Either from Tarifa to Bologna, they are only 20 km apart.

PLAYA DE ALCUDIA BEACH, MALLORCA
It is easy to imagine that you are on some neighboring planet where nature exists in its original form if you go to the best beach in Mallorca – Playa de Alcudia. Graceful, beautiful, calm.
What to do? An ideal place for family tourists. White sandy beaches and a very gentle entrance to the sea, which is ideal for small children. Frequent guests on the beach and windsurfers.
How to get there: look for the beach in the tourist area of Alcudia, south of the port. The beach stretches along Avenue Pedro Mas y Reus to Lake Esperanza. You can get here by ferry from Barcelona or from Menorca, or by bus from Mallorca airport, but it’s much longer.

One of the most comfortable stretches of Barcelona beach is located 4 km from the center and has a length of about 700 m. Ennobled for the Olympics-92, it is separated from Playa Nova Icaria and Playa Mar Bella by powerful breakwaters, thanks to which it is always completely calm here. For lovers of outdoor activities, there are playgrounds for playing basketball, volleyball, football and ping-pong; there is an interactive board that shows the air and water temperature, there are showers, safes, restaurants. Fine light sand, a gentle entrance to the sea and relative peace away from tourist spots attract holidaymakers of all ages, but especially families with small children.
Sitges, located 40 km from Barcelona, is a popular beach resort in Spain, which is famous for all kinds of entertainment for sexual minorities. Gay parades and celebrations of LGBT communities are often held here. Of course, there are many corresponding beaches in the city. The most popular of them is the Playa de l’Home Mort complex, which actually consists of two small secluded beach areas about 300 m long and 10 m wide. They are located immediately behind the Atlantis club. Unlike other beaches, the coast here is pebbly.

Almost all of Spain is one huge open-air historical museum, surrounded by a ring of beautiful seashores and resort areas, many of which are considered the best in Europe.
Spain is a country with a long history. The most ancient cultural monuments in Spain belong to the Paleolithic era. These are rock paintings on the walls of the Altamira cave. From the architecture of the Iberians (ancient tribes that inhabited the Iberian Peninsula in the 1st millennium BC), there were ruins of gigantic stone walls in Tarragona. The Romans in Spain are mainly reminded of civil buildings – water pipes, bridges, aqueducts, amphitheatres, arches. One of the Roman bridges is perfectly preserved – Alcantara on the Tagus River. The bridge has six arches and a triumphal arch in the middle. Majestic are the ruins of the Roman amphitheaters in Merida and Sagunto for 6000 spectators and the arches in Medisaneli and Bar, built in 107-102 BC.
Arabs had a great influence on the development of medieval Spanish art and architecture. The Alhambra palace-fortress in Granada, the mosque in Cordoba, the La Giralda minaret in Seville are world famous.
Mosque-Cathedral in Cordoba (VIII-X centuries) – the largest mosque in the world after the famous Kaaba in Mecca. Its 19 naves with 32 arches occupy a significant area (175×140 m). A double monument – a mosque and a cathedral – testifies to the attempt of the Christian government to get rid of even a hint of Muslim influence. In 1236, after the capture of the city by Christians and the flight of Muslims to North Africa, King Ferdinand III ordered to turn it into a Christian temple. Were closed 19doors facing the courtyard, chapels were built along the inner walls of the building, the minaret was turned into a bell tower.
Alhambra (in Arabic “red”), a palace-fortress of the 13th century, is a miracle of Muslim architecture. Depending on the lighting, its walls and towers change color during the day. Particularly beautiful is the courtyard of Lviv, surrounded by columns of white marble. In the middle of the courtyard is a fountain. Its huge marble bowl rests on 12 lions. There are several magnificent halls in the palace: the Hall of Ambassadors with a huge dome made of cedar wood, the Royal Hall with golden lace arches in the form of stalactites, the Hall of Secrets with amazing acoustic effects.
La Giralda – the former minaret of the mosque, built by the Arabs in the XII century. The mosque was not preserved, and the minaret was turned into the bell tower of the cathedral. This is the most famous monument in Seville. Its silhouette is amazingly graceful. If you climb the bell tower, to a height of 97 m, then a beautiful view of the city opens from there.
Numerous medieval castles – paradors – have been preserved in Spain. Usually they are located in picturesque, quiet and cozy corners and provide excellent opportunities for both leisure and work. Now it is a whole complex of buildings and structures that combine strict architectural lines with modern interior rooms. Rooms are equipped with heating and air conditioning, TV, telephone and minibar. For lovers of outdoor activities in such buildings, a swimming pool, tennis courts, and gyms are necessarily provided.
Madrid – Prado National Museum of Painting and Sculpture, Museums of Modern Art and Natural Sciences, archaeological and ethnographic, of the Spanish people. Royal Palace 18th century and the Sabatini Gardens, the 18th century San Francisco el Grande Church, the Bueno Petiro Park with the zoo and the Botanical Garden, the residence of the monarch Zarzuela, the El Esprial monasteries, the Valley of the Fallen – a memorial to the victims of the civil war.

Spain is considered the largest “hunting” country in Europe. The largest hunting reserve – Sakha (177 thousand hectares) occupies almost the entire eastern half of the province of Santander in the Cantabrian mountains (north of the country). In the beech and oak forests of this reserve, bear, wild boar, roe deer, wolf, chamois are hunted, and among birds – partridge and snipe.
One of the most beautiful and richest in flora and fauna hunting reserves in Spain – Somiedo (88 thousand hectares) – is located in the mountains of the northern province of Oviedo. Its forests consist of a wide variety of broad-leaved species. Bear, wolf, fox, wild boar, roe deer, chamois, polecat, marten, hare are found here, among birds – capercaillie, partridge, snipe, wild pigeon, quail.
In Spain, the Sierra de Cazorla, crossed by the Guadalquivir River, is considered a real miracle of nature in terms of the richness of species and the beauty of landscapes. On its right bank, in the lower reaches, there is the Koto-Donyana nature reserve. The landscape of marisma is protected here – brackish-water coastal swamps of the southern type (reminiscent of the lower reaches of the Volga) with exceptionally rich flora and fauna. Colonies of waterfowl are especially numerous: ducks, geese, flamingos, white storks. A huge colony of herons lives here. The semi-desert southeastern regions of Spain are considered one of the most convenient places to study the life of scorpions and tarantulas. Chameleons live in the south of the country.
Climate:
Spain is divided into three climatic zones:
North of the country (from Galicia to Catalonia) – influenced by the Atlantic Ocean. The area is characterized by mild, wet winters and moderately warm summers.
Southeast coast (Andalusia and Extremadura) – Mediterranean-type climate with exceptionally mild, short winters and dry, hot summers. This area is characterized by a fairly low level of precipitation, falling mainly in autumn and winter.
Central Plateau – here the climate is sharply continental, with significant differences between day and night temperatures (in the center of Spain in summer the temperature during the day rises to +30 degrees, and at night it drops to +15 degrees). Summers are hot and dry, winters are dry and cold.
Despite the fact that the Iberian Peninsula is surrounded by sea on almost all sides, in its central part the influence of water masses on climatic conditions is vanishing. Mountain ranges stretching along almost the entire coastline protect the interior of the peninsula from external influences. In general, the country is dominated by a subtropical climate of the Mediterranean type, although in its pure form it can only be stated in the south and east of the country. The influence of the continental climatic zone increases with distance from the coast. On the coast, where the sea acts as a huge reservoir of solar energy, the climate is very mild. On the Mediterranean coast, the average winter temperature is +17°C, +19°C degrees (the thermometer rarely drops below +10°C). In summer the temperature does not rise above + 32°C. The beach season here lasts from June to October.
In Castile and La Mancha, located on the central plateau, the weather is very hot from May to September, and in winter squally, piercing, cold winds blow here. The climate of Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria and Basque Country is characterized by high humidity – it rains here literally all year round. At the same time, the south and southeast of Spain often suffer from drought.
In the highlands of Spain during the winter months there are often frosts, heavy snow falls. In the Pyrenees (Andorra), the mountains of the Sierra Nevada (Andalusia) and the Sierra de Guadar Rama (near Madrid), ski resorts operate all year round.

Map with driving times – Lanzarote by car
Below is a map of the driving times you can expect around Lanzarote.
#1 to 6 – Lanzarote Driving Rules
Let’s start with general rules and regulations you should be aware of:
#1 – License requirement / Age – Do I need an international driver’s permit?
To drive in Lanzarote you need a valid driving licence from your country.
People with EU licenses can drive on their holidays with only their valid national licenses
All other nationalities must have an International Driving Permit (on top of their national license)
You must be 18 years of age (but know that many rental companies may have other age requirements).
It is also mandatory to always have the vehicle registration documents as well as a valid ID, such as your passport, with you.
#2 – Side of the road
Driving in Lanzarote is on the right side of the road. It is very important to remember it on one lane roads when you have to give way! It means roundabouts are taken anti-clockwise.
#3 – General behavior rules
Seatbelts are mandatory for all
No cell phone while driving
Headphones are illegal
Kids under 12 cannot seat in the front of the car
Do not wear flip-flops to drive
#4 – Alcohol and driving
The legal alcohol limit here is 0. 05%. Driving under the influence is considered a serious offence. I always recommend not drinking at all if you are driving.
#5 – Mandatory equipment to have in your car
In Lanzarote, the following pieces of equipment must be available in the car:
2 Warning triangles
Reflective vest or jacket
Spare wheel and tools to change it
First aid kit (advised, not mandatory)
Flashlight (advised, not mandatory)
Children under 18kg (39.7 pounds) in weight must be in child seats
Children under 135cm (4.4ft) tall should be in the rear seats on a booster.
#6 – Mandatory insurance
The only mandatory insurance in Lanzarote is: unlimited third-party liability insurance – it is automatically included in the price of all car rentals. If you are visiting with your own car, don’t forget to bring proof of insurance.
Compare car rental prices in Lanzarote
#7 to 12 – Roads conditions and Road Signs in Lanzarote
#7 – Conditions on fast roads
Lanzarote does not have any motorway. But there are roads allowing to drive faster between town. They are in very good conditions, mostly one lane in each direction with beautiful pavement and clear lines:
#8 – Conditions of other roads to enjoy
Once outside the motorways, roads vary. Most of them have at least one lane in each direction.
When you go off the beaten path, you may be driving on smaller roads. Those might have holes and bumps but also a lot less traffic. So take your time, it is easy if you don’t speed. And if locals arrive, slow down and give way.
Only 2 roads are a little bit more difficult than the others.
1. LZ-10 down to the town of Haria. It is a mountain side road, with 5 sharp bends. It is not that hard, but some people are not big fans. Just take your time
2. LZ-202 to Mirador del Rio. The inland part of the road to the mirador is very easy. But for those you want to loop on the scenic part along the cliff, note that the road is just large enough for 2 cars (with not much space to spare if the cars are large). My suggestion is to leave the car at the carpark and go enjoy this road on foot. This way you can really appreciate the views. And you drive back via the inland part of the road.
#9 – Driving in towns & villages
No major difficulties with driving in towns. Some smaller villages have smaller streets where you might have to wait to engage. But generally it is quite easy.
What I don’t recommend is driving inside the center of Arrecife. You can drive around, and park in the South to explore on foot. But the small very streets of the center with one-way roads everywhere is really a nightmare. I was really annoyed when I got stuck in.
#10 – Speed limit & signs
Speed limits are indicated on circular signs with red border and a number
Speed limits are in kilometers per hour
National speed limits are – 50km/h in residential areas, up to 110km/h on main roads
#11 – Other road signs in Lanzarote
The road signs are classic in latin letters, nothing specific to know. There are plenty of signs to indicate directions. Although sometimes in the countryside, they can be missing.
Points of interest are indicated on brown signs.
#12 – Tolls in Lanzarote
There are not toll roads. The only “toll” is on the unpaved road that allow you to reach the Papagayo beaches. It is more of a gate.
#13 to 15 – How to drive safely
#13 – Know the potential dangers on the Lanzarote roads
Apart from you driving too fast, the main dangers on the Portugal roads are:
SCENERY – The main danger is for you to be distracted by the amazing scenery especially around volcanoes and lava. The solidified lava seas can be very impressive and you want to look better but there is no place to stop. This is when you become dangerous
LOCALS – because you want to look at the scenery, locals going to work can be impatient. There are sometimes a bit crazy when overtaking. So always look in your mirrors, particularly when turning left (to an accommodation for example) in the middle of a long straight road
CYCLISTS – During weekends cyclists take over the roads. Be really careful when overtaking.
#14 – Specific driving tips
Some specifics to Lanzarote driving are:
None
#15 – What to do in case of accident
In case there are people hurt or there is a conflict, the emergency number in 112 is: The best order of actions is:
contact emergency services
contact the police
contact your rental provider
#16 to 17 – Parking in Lanzarote
#16 – Parking in towns
Parking in Arrecife can be very difficult. I recommend you choose an underground carpark and head there directly.
In the resort towns, it can also be difficult to find parking, especially close to the beaches. If you are staying in one, don’t forget to check if it includes a parking space or not.
#17 – Parking at attractions
Most attractions have large free carparks. The main attractions have paved carparks, while off the beaten path places (such as start of volcano hikes) might be unpaved. Drive slowly on them.
Where to stay in Lanzarote? My tips:
Most enjoyable Resort Town – Playa Blanca – see best rated accommodations
Main resort town (without car & nightlife) – Puerto del Carmen – see best rated accommodations
Best location to be able to explore Lanzarote – Costa Teguise – see best rated accommodations
Coastal Charm and Quiet – Punta Mujeres – see best rated accommodations
Scenic Views – Famara Beach – see best rated accommodations
Original& isolated – La Graciosa – see best rated accommodations

#17 to 18 – Gas stations
#17 – Fuels and their names
Fuel is considered cheap compared to the rest of Europe
Petrol station in Spanish is “estación de servicio”
Petrol is on green pump – called “gasolina” and if unleaded “gasolina sin plomo”
Diesel is on Black pump called “gasoil”
See the concentration of electric car charging station, where you are going in Lanzarote on this website
Petrol station in Lanzarote
#17 – Management of gas stations
There are stations roughly everywhere, so don’t worry
And most of them have fuel attendants to fill up your tank, which I love.
During night time you may have to prepay before being able to fill up
#19 – Most beautiful roads in Lanzarote
The island is not large. You can drive almost all roads and admire the different sides of Lanzarote.
My favorite is to drive through the Los Volcanes Natural Park with volcanoes and lava fields all around. – LZ-56 and LZ-67
The coastal road from Janubio to El Golfo (with lava cliffs, salt pans…)
The road around the Mirador del Rio
Montana Cuervo
#20 to 23 – Renting a car in Lanzarote
Below is a snapshot with the main things to know. You can learn more on my article about renting a car in Lanzarote.
#20 – Type of car to rent
Most cars in Lanzarote have manual transmission. You will pay more for automatic and they are fewer options.
No specific recommendations in terms of size and power
Compare car rental prices in Lanzarote
#21 – Where to rent
Car hire in Lanzarote is available from the airport, the port as well as all the main resort towns; Playa Blanca, Puerto del Carmen, Costa Teguise and the capital Arrecife.
The largest car rental hubs in Lanzarote are:
Arrecife Aiport car rental – see deals
Arrecife port car rental – see deals
Playa Blanca car rental – see deals
I have personally used Cicar in Lanzarote and was very satisfied. It is available on Discovercars.com.
#22 – 4WD and going off-road in Lanzarote
As I said earlier, many rental companies don’t even allow 4WD vehicles to go off road. So your options are:
To book an off-road excursion – I did one day with Crazy David with a private tour organised to my interest and it was splendid – Contact here on his website
To hire a buggy and follow your guide – Voir options
#23 – General tips for worry-free experience
There is nothing special about renting a car in Lanzarote – no specific scam or rules
As everywhere, I recommend a thorough examination of the car before taking it (and take pictures) – and don’t fall for extra insurance hard sell
Book early to get the best prices and the choice of cars
See all my tips on my other article
#24 – Changing islands – ferry with rental car
Most of the companies do not allow you to change island with your car. And you will be in big trouble if you do go and have a technical issue or accident. So best to do a comparison:
Cost of ferry for the entire party + car with company that allows it
Versus – Cost of ferry seat without car for the entire party + rental in Fuerteventura
Ferry prices available here
If renting with Discovercars.com, once you selected a car you can click on “Rental conditions” and then again “Rental conditions” or “Additional conditions” to find the “geographical restrictions”. If it is not documented, you can add the question to customer support.

Driving In Lanzarote – Lanzarote Information
For some people, driving in Lanzarote is their first experience of driving abroad, and a few nerves are understandable.
Let’s start off by putting you at your ease – driving here is easy and safe. Our roads are excellent, traffic quite light and visibility is always good. Also remember that locals are very used to tourists not being quite sure of what they are doing, so there’s plenty of time to make decisions. Relax – you’ll be fine!
Here are some key things to note:
We drive on the right
Cars here are left hand drive and we drive on the right side of the road. You’ll get used to it very quickly, but a couple of things might feel odd if you are used to right hand drive. You’ll find the central interior mirror feels as though it’s in the wrong place, and changing gear will feel a little odd with your right hand. If you’re concerned about the latter, hire an automatic.
Also remember on a dual carriageway, you should stay in the nearside lane unless you are overtaking.
Roundabouts
The first thing to note is that we go around them anti-clockwise. The rules are also different here – traffic in the outside lane has right of way. That means you will often see people going all the way around a roundabout in the outside lane, even if they are leaving at the 3rd or 4th exit. Just make sure you are in that outside lane at the point you want to leave the roundabout.
Stop Signs
If you come to a stop sign at a T-Junction, you have to stop, even if you can see the road is clear. A stop is mandatory here, so make sure you do so, especially if you see a policeman around.
Solid white lines
You must never cross a solid white line, either to overtake or to turn. Note this one, especially when parking – don’t be tempted to cross a solid line and park facing the wrong way.
Bikes
You’ll see many more bikes on the roads of Lanzarote than in many other places. Of course, they have just as much right to use the roads as car drivers or pedestrians. If they are riding in a group, they will usually ride two abreast in a “peloton” which means their line is shorter for you to overtake. Wait for a moment when there are no solid lines and the road ahead is clear, then pass the cyclists leaving at least 1. 5 metres clear on your nearside.
Parking
You should park in the direction of the traffic, especially at night so your reflectors are presented to traffic. You shouldn’t swing across the road to park facing the oncoming traffic.
Slip roads
Slip roads onto main roads can be quite short here, and traffic on the main road is not obliged to let you filter in, so be prepared to stop if you don’t have a clear entry into the traffic.
Right turns onto a road
When you turn right from one road to another, you should give way to any on coming traffic turning left into the same road. You’ll see markings which show you where to stop to let the left turner through.
Headlights
It doesn’t rain often in Lanzarote, but when it does, turn your headlights on, and remember the roads can be slippery if it’s the first rain for months.
A left indicator is often used to show you the car in front is stopping
You may have noticed that when cars stop at pedestrian crossings, they put their left indicator on. That signals the car behind, but also the pedestrian, that they have been seen and it is safe to cross.
Seat belts
All occupants must wear seat belts. Children under 18KG in weight must be in child seats and those under 135CM tall should be in the rear seats on a booster. When you hire a car from us, we supply both types free of charge.
Drinking and driving
The legal alcohol limit here is 0.05% and driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is a serious offence.
Police
The police here maintain a strong presence on the roads and they are permitted to stop traffic for road side checks. Ensure you have your driving licence with you when driving, and if it’s not a photo type, you should have photo ID with you. Also keep a copy of your hire agreement in the car. The Policía Municipal are responsible for traffic control within the towns, outside these areas it becomes the area of the Guardia Civil de Tráfico. The motorcycle police usually patrol in pairs and are trained in mechanics and first aid, they will stop and help any drivers in trouble. The police will often set up a check point and stop random motorists, they want to see your passport or residencia, driving license and vehicle registration papers (permiso de circulación) with insurance certificate (including proof of payment). For hire cars, the copy of the contract covers all these things.
Speed limits in Lanzarote
Residential areas 20 kph
Built up areas 50 kph
Country roads 80 kph
Dual carriageways 100 kph
Traffic Fines
A traffic ticket (multa) issued should show the vehicle’s registration number, details of the driver, details of the offence, police identification number and time limit for an appeal. Any non-resident driver will be asked to pay traffic fines on the spot and expect to be accompanied to a cash point if you don’t have the funds on you! A resident is given 30 days to make the payment at a local bank or the tráfico office. A discount of up to 30% may be offered for prompt or immediate payment, the fine is to be paid within 60 days otherwise.
The amount of the fine depends on the severity of the offence, they range up to €1,500.
Serious offences include driving at least 30 kph over the speed limit, driving whilst under the influence of drugs or alcohol, refusing to take a breathalyzer test and exceeding the number of people legally permitted in the vehicle.
Offences such as driving without lights, parking in a dangerous position, crossing a solid white line, driver or passengers not wearing a seatbelt carry fines from €91 to €300.
Speed Cameras
There are fixed cameras in some locations in Lanzarote and average speed cameras in others. There is also a radar equipped car and portable radar speed checking equipment which can be set up anywhere.
Take your time, and obey the speed limits!
Towing
You are not allowed to tow cars in Lanzarote, if your car breaks down or has an accident then you must call for a grúa (tow truck).
If you have an accident
If anyone is injured or the accident is a serious one, you must call the police on 112, and you will also be able to ask for an ambulance. You should put a warning triangle onto the road behind and in front of a car blocking any part of the road, and passengers should don reflective jackets.
Notify your insurance company or the hire company as soon as possible. It’s common practice for those involved in an accident to complete an accident report form at the scene.
Car Hire
We have a huge range of cars which you can hire at really affordable prices – the small cars are generally less than €80 per week. Our prices include two drivers, full insurance with no excess, free child seats, and the cars all have air conditioning. See the full range here: Lanzarote car hire
4 Lanzarote Scenic Drives & Advice for Driving in Lanzarote
Enjoy the driving experience in Lanzarote
Lanzarote is a small island compared to Tenerife or even Fuerteventura, which is located in the close vicinity and is the second largest island in the Canaries. Given its relatively small size and flat surface, Lanzarote is the ideal place to drive for visitors who rent a car abroad for the first time.
Info and Tips For Driving in Lanzarote
4 scenic drives in Lanzarote to get a taste of the island
1. Discover the north of Lanzarote
2. Timanfaya National Park and La Geria – The Wine Valley of Lanzarote
3. The south of Lanzarote – from El Golfo to the Papagayo Beaches
4. Teguise Sunday Market and Playa de Famara
Driving in Lanzarote is easy and there’s usually no traffic or congestion, except maybe if you go into Arrecife, where you may find it challenging to navigate through the one-way streets and to find a parking space.
Renting a car in Lanzarote is easy and cheap, usually, it even works out better to rent a car for a week than to pay for a return taxi fare between the airport and Playa Blanca for example. The gas price is lower compared to the rest of Europe, so driving around the island won’t be an expensive activity, especially if you take into account the prices for bus tours.
Driving in Lanzarote is easy, as the roads are usually in great condition and there’s not much traffic really, as the island’s population is only around 100 000 people. Driving in Lanzarote is actually a rather satisfying experience, as you get to drive by the ocean and stop anywhere you like, which means that you can discover on your own some of Lanzarote’s hidden gems.
The island is mostly flat, so driving is easy and does not pose many challenges
Avoid driving in Arrecife if you are an anxious driver – the streets are narrow, many of them are one-way streets and finding parking can be difficult. The old town was not designed with the nowadays traffic in mind, so be patient while looking for a place to park
The drive up to Mirador del Rio is probably the most exciting part of driving in Lanzarote, as you get to go up on a narrow road, which is in good condition, so there is no reason to worry
Be careful when driving in roundabouts
4 scenic drives in Lanzarote to get a taste of the island
There are many beautiful places to see in Lanzarote and if you decide to visit on your own, you can take your time and do things at your own pace. Lanzarote is a very safe destination for tourists and as long as you drive carefully and respect traffic signs you should have no problem.
1. Discover the north of Lanzarote
When driving towards the north of the island there are a few places that you shouldn’t miss: Cesar Manrique Foundation, Jameos del Agua and Cueva de los Verdes.
If you still have time, follow the road from Cueva de los Verdes and go up to Mirador del Rio, where you’ll enjoy some spectacular views towards the smaller island of La Graciosa.
If on the way to the north you’ve come on the LZ-1 highway, on the way back from Mirador del Rio you can take the alternative route that passes through Haria, a charming village where you can enjoy a few moments of piece and quiet.
If you leave in the morning you’ll probably have time to stop at all of these places and you could have lunch at the restaurant inside Jameos del Agua, to enjoy even more the spectacular settings of this attraction.
2.
Timanfaya National Park and La Geria – The Wine Valley of Lanzarote
Don’t be afraid of driving in Lanzarote – the roads are good!
A holiday in Lanzarote just wouldn’t be complete without a visit to Timanfaya National Park, to find out more about Lanzarote’s volcanic history.
You’ll go inside the national park by car just up to the point where the restaurant is and there you’ll have to go on a ride by bus, that will take you through the volcanic landscape and it takes around 45 minutes.
From there you can head towards La Geria to sample some of Lanzarote’s finest wines. Although this might not be the best activity for the person behind the wheel, you can still buy a bottle of wine to take back home and enjoy it there.
Nonetheless, seeing the landscape and the grapevines is still a beautiful experience, even if you’re not able to taste the wine at the location.
3. The south of Lanzarote – from El Golfo to the Papagayo Beaches
Playa de Papagayo
Another MUST SEE place in Lanzarote is El Golfo – the island’s very own green lake, which is an unusual sight in contrast with the black volcanic sand of the beach.
From here you can head down towards Los Hervideros, another place where you can admire the force of nature, especially if you get here when the tide is in.
The rest of the day you can spend in on one of the most beautiful beaches in Lanzarote, inside Los Ajaches Natural Park. It costs 3 euros per car to enter the park and go to one of the Papagayo beaches, but it’s well worth the price for the amazing views you get. Our advice is to bring something to eat and drink with you, as there’s just one restaurant inside the park and the prices are higher than in similar restaurants around the island.
4. Teguise Sunday Market and Playa de Famara
The drive to Famara Beach offers really nice views!
The Sunday Market in Teguise is the largest market in Lanzarote and one of the most famous in all the Canary Islands.
If you’re driving into town try to arrive here early, as parking spaces get filled up quickly and this way you make sure you’ll find a spot as close as possible to the market.
After spending a few hours at Teguise Market, where you can have a nice breakfast or lunch (depending on when you’ll arrive), you can drive towards Famara Beach, the popular surfer’s beach in Lanzarote. Even if you’re not into water sports, it’s still worth the time and drive in order to admire the wild landscape around this place.

Are you planning a road trip in Lanzarote? From hiring a car to where to visit, this is the ultimate guide to driving in Lanzarote, Spain!
With volcanoes dotted all around the island and mile after mile of gorgeous coastline views, driving in Lanzarote is an amazing activity in itself.
Just put on some banging choons, wind down the windows and let the good times roll. That’s what our Lanzarote road trip was all about.
When we booked our trip to Lanzarote, we didn’t just want to base ourself in one town. We wanted to see all the island had to offer.
The majority of tourists either stay in Playa Blanca, Puerto del Carmen or Costa Teguise. If you’re just staying by the pool for a week, you’re probably not going to need a car.
This is what our road trip Lanzarote was all about
However, we’re explorers and we wanted to explore the island. For that, we needed a car so we could drive to the best beaches in Lanzarote and a few other hidden sites.
If you’re planning your own road trip in Lanzarote, then this is the blog post for you. In it I’m going to tell you what it’s like driving here, where some of the best places to visit are, and loads of other useful information too.
I’m pretty sure you’re going to enjoy the driving here as much as I did!
To help plan your trip here, make sure you check out my guide to the best boutique hotels in Lanzarote. Some of these places are so dreamy and perfect for that extra special holiday.
Contents & Quicklinks
Hiring a car in Lanzarote
I really recommend hiring a car in Lanzarote
Firstly, if you’re driving in Lanzarote, you’re going to need a car.
There are all the usual car hire companies at the airport like Avis, Europcar, Hertz and Sixt. There are also a few budget companies too like Payless Cars, Topcars and Thrifty.
We went with Thrifty (they’re a subsidiary of Hertz). We booked a small Ford Focus which cost £270 for 7 days, so it worked out to be £38.60 per day. This is a fair bit more than it’d cost hiring a car on mainland Spain, but because it’s an island where they have to import everything, the prices are higher.
You can also hire a car from local tour operators in Playa Blanca, Puerto del Carmen or Costa Teguise. If you’re just hiring for a day or two, this can be quite expensive, but it gets cheaper with multiple days.
There’s a lot of debate whether it’s cheaper hiring a car from the airport vs in a local town close to where you’re staying. To be honest with you, researching it, prices are about the same. I’ve always hired a car from the airport because it’s a lot easier in the long run, especially when flying home.
Oh, one thing to be aware of. You have to be over 23 years of age to hire a car in Lanzarote.
What’s it like driving in Lanzarote?
I promise you’re going to love the driving here
I genuinely loved driving in Lanzarote. There’s something so special about driving towards a volcano with the blue glistening water on one side and the black lava on the other.
The whole island is only 60 kms from north to south, and 25 kms from east to west, so the distances aren’t huge. Also, there are 213 kms of coastline to follow, so expect nothing but beautiful views.
Driving from the north to the south only takes around 45 minutes, so I found most of the distances very manageable.
There are so many cute towns to stop off at all around the island
Most of the driving is very easy and relaxed. The max speed limit on the island is 110 kph, so it’s not like driving on the autobahns in Germany.
The main roads are in a very good condition with smooth tarmac, plenty of space and good signage. I was actually quite surprised with how good the roads were – they were better than I expected.
However, there is one road this is absolutely shocking. The road from near Playa Blanca to Papagayo (one of the most popular beaches in Lanzarote) is a dirt track riddled with potholes. This is a proper themepark ride where you get thrown all over the place. I could only manage about 20 kph on this ‘road’. Everyone takes is slowly though and respects each other which is good.
Main roads in Lanzarote
Get ready for lots of views like this while driving Lanzarote
There are two main motorways in Lanzarote, both of which start in the capital Arrecife.
The LZ-1 heads north all the way up to Orzola. This is where you can catch the ferry over to La Graciosa (one of the other Canary Islands).
The other road LZ-2 heads all the way south to the town of Playa Blanca.
LZ-202 to Mirador del Rio
The roads around Mirador del Rio are the best for scenic driving
Another road to be wary of is the LZ-202 to Mirador del Rio. The inland part of the road up to the mirador is absolutely fine – if you’re looking for an easy drive then take this road (the one in the above image).
However, there is a scenic section of the road that runs alongside the cliffs. Even though the views are absolutely spectacular here, the road is barely wide enough for 2 cars passing side by side. Also, there are only a couple of places where you can pull in to allow the car on the other side of the road to pass, so it’s tight.
If you’re a nervous driver or you have a car larger than a hatchback, I would avoid this road.
Instead, you can park at Mirador del Rio and walk along this section of the road. This way you can really appreciate the views without the worry of scratching your hire car!
Rules for driving in Lanzarote
Driving is on the right side of the road. This means roundabouts are taken anti-clockwise. This always confuses people coming from the UK, so be careful!
Alcohol limit is 0. 05% which is lower than the UK. This is a very very small glass of wine or low-alcohol beer. If you get caught for drink driving, the fine is Є1,000
Kids can’t sit in the front seat of a hire car. In Lanzarote, any child under the age of 12 or under 1 metre 35 cm must sit in the back. If not, you could get a Є200 fine
Driving rules from Spain apply
You have to wear a seatbelt at all times
No mobile phones while driving
Don’t wear flip flops to drive. If you get caught in flip flops, you can actually get a Є200 fine. It’s rare it happens, but it is the law.
Speed limits are clearly indicated and enforced
Emergency number: 112
Max speed limit on motorways: 110 kph
Max speed limit in residential or built-up areas: 40 kph
Tips for driving in Lanzarote
There are plenty of free car parks in Lanzarote
Cyclists – one of the things you always have to be aware of while on your road trip in Lanzarote is cyclists. Lanzarote is a Mecca for cyclists and you’ll see them frequently while driving around the island. Just be aware of them and make sure you leave them plenty of space.
Car parks – there are free car parks at all of the major attractions in Lanzarote. Usually there are parking attendants there who’ll tell you where to park too. It’s all very civilized here.
Stop signs – if you come to a stop sign at a T-Junction, you have to stop, even if you can see the road is clear. A stop is in Lanzarote is mandatory. If you don’t, you risk being fined.
Petrol – prices are similar as mainland Spain. The cost was around Є1.23 per litre while I was there. Also, we only had to fill up our hire car once on our way back to the airport, so running a car doesn’t cost much.
Places to visit in Lanzarote
Timanfaya National Park
This is the drive through TimanfayaTimanfaya National Park is a must on a Lanzarote road trip
The drive through Timanfaya National Park blows my mind. This is where you have the black lava fields with a number of volcanoes dotted all around you.
This drive often takes you through La Geria too. This is the wine region in Lanzarote where you’ll see the conical shapes on the vines growing in the volcanic landscape. Honestly, it is such a beautiful region on the island.
Mirador del Rio
This was my favourite viewpoint on the island
If you’re a confident driver or you’ve got a small car, I’d really recommend the drive up to Mirador del Rio. Not only was with one of my favourite attractions on the island, but it is one of the best viewpoints too.
The road takes you up to the mirador with views of La Graciosa on your left. Just wait till you see it yourself.
El Golfo
You can see why they call it Lago Verde
In the south of the island, another place well worth visiting is El Golfo and the Lago Verde. This is Lanzarote’s very own green lagoon and it is one of the top attractions on the island.
El Golfo is also the best spot for sunset in Lanzarote too. When we were here, we went to one of the restaurants, ordered a couple of cocktails (non-alcoholic for me) and watched the sunset before heading off again.
Papagayo beach
This is the infamous beach at Papagayo in the south
Even though the road to Papagayo is shocking, it is well worth the whiplash when you see the beach. This is without a doubt one of my favourite beaches in Lanzarote and it’s a great place to go for the afternoon.
There are a couple of restaurants here, so if you do want to stay for a few hours, then I’d recommend eating in the one on the far left of the image above.
Is it worth hiring a car in Lanzarote?
ABSOLUTELY, YES!
Unless you really do just plan on sipping cocktails by the pool, the best way of seeing Lanzarote is in the freedom of your own car.
Also, if you want to visit a few other places on the island, then taxis and transfers can quickly add up. Overall, this can be a lot more cost effective than booking onto a tour group.
Another reason why I recommend hiring a car in Lanzarote is public transport can be scare. Often the busses run only once per hour, but you have no idea when it’ll turn up. That can mean waiting around at bus stops for quite a while constantly checking your watch.
With your own car, you have the freedom of going where you want, when you want. As I said, this was why we loved our Lanzarote road trip.

Guide to the best places to visit in Lanzarote on self-drive day trips
Lanzarote is an extraordinary island off the coast of Morocco. One of the Canary Islands archipelago that is part of Spain, Lanzarote covers approximately 850 square kilometers and lies less than 200 kilometers off the coast of Morocco. Formed by fiery volcanic activity, Lanzarote, with its countless volcanic cones, barren landscapes and ancient lava flows, is a wondrous place to visit. Aside from the otherworldly volcanic landscapes, you’ll find picturesque whitewashed villages, sandy beaches, vineyards and numerous miradors with breathtaking views. The best way to visit these places in Lanzarote is to hire a car and embark on a road trip to explore the island. I’ve created this guide to give you an idea of where to go and what to see in Lanzarote on easy road trips around the island.
Update May 2022
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, please be aware of any changes to restrictions or entry requirements. Visit the government website for the latest info.
This Lanzarote road trips guide contains links to three services I often use myself and can recommend: Booking.com (for hotel bookings), Rentalcars.com (for car hire) and GetYourGuide (for easy-to-book tours). If you make a booking via one of these services, I will receive a small commission (at no extra cost to you). These commissions help me to maintain my blog and share more travel experiences with you.
I’ve created three driving routes that cover the northern, central and southern areas of Lanzarote. For the purposes of this guide, each route starts and ends in Arrecife. On the map above, I’ve also marked my favourite beaches (yellow pins), the best places to visit in Lanzarote (purple pins) such as towns, viewpoints (miradors) and other attractions, and some of the Lanzarote wineries I’ve visited (blue pins). Each of these Lanzarote road trips can easily be done in a day.
Driving in Lanzarote is easy.
Driving in Lanzarote is easy – the roads are good and there’s little traffic – so you can literally explore the island at a relaxed pace. In addition, it makes economic sense to hire a car instead of paying separately for transportation to/from the airport and tours. Pay attention to the road signs, make sure you drive in the right lane, don’t drink and drive and you should be good.
Northern Lanzarote route: cacti, lave tubes and incredible views
Arrecife
Arrecife is the capital of Lanzarote. From its harbour, ferries connect Lanzarote with other Canary Islands as well as the European and African mainland. The old town, with its narrow streets, is a delight to explore. Another attraction is the 18th century Castillo de San Miguel (now an art museum).
The inner harbour of Arrecife.Castillo de San Miguel
Jardin de Cactus
From Arrecife, follow the LZ-18 road to Costa Teguise. There’s a variety of beaches (including the sandy Playa de las Cucharas), hotels, restaurants and shops. Search for hotels in Costa Teguise.
Continue to the Jardin de Cactus (Cactus Garden). Built in an old quarry, the Jardin de Cactus is a Cesar Manrique creation (more on him later). The garden, designed in the shape of an amphitheatre, houses more than 10,000 cacti from around the world as well as beautiful volcanic stone sculptures.
Cactus garden (image courtesy of threefishsleeping)
Jameos del Agua
From here, follow the LZ-1 road northwards to one of the coolest places in Lanzarote: Jameos del Agua. Along the way, you can opt to stop at the natural rock pools in laidback Punta Mujeres, a lovely place for a drink and cheap and plentiful tapas (at the Pool Bar Pichon).
The Jameos del Agua, is for me, one of the island’s most fascinating attractions and a must see in Lanzarote. The Jameos is a striking combination of geology, architecture and design. The island’s most famous artist/architect, Cesar Manrique, built a visitor centre complete with a restaurant, bar, one of the most amazing auditoriums I’ve ever seen and a museum inside what used to be a gigantic lava tube. Visiting the Jameos del Agua is definitely one of the best things to do in Lanzarote!
Jameos del Agua is an attraction built inside a lava tube. Manrique created wondrous gardens in sections where the roof of the cave collapsed. Ethereal blue in the lava tube.
Get acquainted with the works of Cesar Manrique – as you explore Lanzarote, look out for more examples of his amazing creations.
The works of Cesar Manrique can be found across the island.
Across the LZ-1 road, you’ll find the wondrous Cueva de los Verdes, a 3,000-year-old lava tube. The tube extends for 6 kilometers above sea level and for another 1.5 kilometers below the sea (the world’s longest submarine lava tube). Join a tour to explore the cave and learn about the island’s geology.
Mirador del Rio
You can continue northwards along the coast on the LZ-1 or take the shortcut to the LZ-201 and continue to the next attraction: the Mirador del Rio. Another Cesar Manrique creation, this viewpoint, neatly blended into the cliff-face, offers breathtaking views of the imposing cliffs and of La Graciosa island across the strait.
Mirador del Rio was designed by Cesar Manrique and offers spectacular panoramic views. The view of La Graciosa island from Mirador del Rio.View of the cliffs from the path.
Haria
From the mirador, return to the LZ-201 road and follow it southwards to Haria. Located in the Haria Valley or ‘Valley of a Thousand Palms’ (find out about the origins of this name in the town), this stunning whitewashed town contrasts sharply with the barren volcanic landscape. Stop for a stroll around this lovely town, have a drink at the main square (Plaza Leon y Castillo) and visit the quaint church at the plaza.

This is also popular area for hikers and there are various viewpoints in the surrounding mountains for spectacular views. The viewpoints accessible by car are Rincon de Haria and Valle de Malpaso.

Teguise
The last stop on this northern route is Teguise. The former capital of Lanzarote, Teguise is a quiet town that bursts to life on Sundays (9am – 2pm) when it hosts the largest market on the island. There’s lots of fresh produce, wines, arts and crafts. The wonderful atmosphere makes the market a great place to visit on Sunday mornings.

Central Lanzarote: the wild coast, Martian landscapes and unique vineyards
Caleta de Famara
From Arrecife, take the LZ-20 – LZ-30 and LZ-402 roads to Caleta de Famara. This windy beach, with its long arc of golden sand, is a popular destination for surfers and kitesurfers. Backed by imposing cliffs, it’s one of the most scenic beaches (in a wild sense) on Lanzarote.

Timanfaya National Park
Continue along the wild, windswept coast towards La Santa (another surf spot) before heading to the Timanfaya National Park. One of the most popular places to visit in Lanzarote, Timanfaya consists of 25(!) volcanoes and expansive lava fields. Drive up to the visitor centre and leave your car there to join a bus tour of the park (the entrance ticket to the park includes parking and the bus tour).
Driving through the Timanfaya National Park is an otherworldly experience!The incredible volcanic landscapes of Timanfaya National Park.One of the volcanoes in the Timanfaya NP.The colours of the volcanic landscape.
It’s a surreal experience touring the park. As you pass volcanic cones in a multitude of colours, old lava flows and intriguing rock formations, you might think you’d just landed on Mars! Back at the visitor centre, watch the guide ‘create’ a geyser and other cool stunts. You can also opt to go on a 4-hour guided hike through the park (advance bookings required).

La Geria
From the national park, continue to Uga and further to La Geria (on the LZ-30 road). Located on the edges of the Timanfaya National Park, La Geria is the premier wine-producing region in Lanzarote. What makes it especially intriguing is its black, ashy landscape and horshoe-shaped rock walls which protect the vines.
The horseshoe-shaped walls protect the vines.
There are various bodegas (wineries) worth stopping at for a tour and/or wine-tasting. I can recommend Bodega La Geria and Bodega Rubicón. I also enjoyed the wine-tasting/tapas experience at La Bodeguita del Tablero. Don’t miss the local favourite, Malvasia, or the Moscatel varieties. If you’d like to learn more about the history of wine-making in Lanzarote, continue along the LZ-30 to El Grifo, a bodega with an interesting museum.
The wineries are literally situated on the slopes of volcanoes!Bodegas Rubicón.Wine-tasting at Bodegas Rubicón.

Southern Lanzarote: a green lagoon, salt flats and beaches
El Golfo
From Arrecife, follow the LZ-2 road to Charco de los Clicos. Also known as El Golfo, this green lagoon is a fascinating place to visit. The unusual colour of the lagoon is created by a type of algae found in the water. Backed by the eroded walls of a crater and contrasting sharply with the black beach, El Golfo is certainly an incredible sight.
El Golfo
Los Hervideros
From here, continue to Los Hervideros, further down the coast. This viewpoint is a popular place to visit due to its breathtaking views of the rugged coastline. Spend some time here to enjoy the sights and sounds of huge waves crashing into the volcanic cliffs and caves. There’s a trail here which leads to other viewpoints and a lava field.

Salinas de Janubio
Head further south towards Salinas de Janubio, a patchwork of colourful salt flats. It’s a great photo stop and there’s also a shop which sells different types of salt.

The beaches
After all that driving, it’s time for the beach! Some of Lanzarote’s best beaches are found in this area. From Salinas de Janubio, follow the LZ-2 to Playa Blanca. This bustling beach community offers many accommodation options and a plethora of restaurants, bars, cafés and shops. Search for hotels in Playa Blanca.

For something more secluded, head for the beaches of the nearby Costa de Papagayo. It costs a few euros to enter the park but once inside, you have a choice of five beautiful beaches! Playa Papagayo is the most famous (and crowded) of the lot. My favourite is Playa Mujeres.

Driving tips for Lanzarote
Walking in your own car or rental is an advantage for sightseeing because you have a lot of freedom to move. In First Minute Transfer we will give you some tips to drive around Lanzarote. Keep them in mind if you decide to drive around the island during your next vacation.
How to move around Lanzarote?
Lanzarote is a beautiful island where you have to travel every corner to enjoy its particular landscapes. If you want to go out and explore and know the most interesting sites, you have different ways of doing it. It will depend on the budget and the type of trip you have in mind, the option that is best for you.
In this post we explain how to get around Lanzarote and the basic tips you should know if you decide to drive around the island.
To enjoy all the attractions that the island has, you can take the public transport of Lanzarote. The problem is that it is slow and it will take a long time to reach your destination. For some this is not convenient, especially if they are on a short trip. Other visitors, on the other hand, do not mind taking a bus that stops at all points, because they have the opportunity to learn more.
If you decide to take this option you should know that most of the lines depart from Arrecife. There they also make the line changes. Sometimes the buses are delayed, but they will take you to all the urban points of the island.
Another alternative is by taxi, which you can book before you arrive to be waiting for you at the airport. They have the advantage that they can take you anywhere on the island and you will just relax on the way enjoying the scenery.
There are also options for those who prefer to spend more time in the lodging. In this case, if you want to know the most popular attractions you can book excursions in Lanzarote. They are programmed tours that will take you to specific points.
Car ride on the island
For those who prefer to walk more freely, they have the option of driving their own car – if they travel by ferry – or rent one. This option will allow them to reach all corners of the island in their own air. You can go to those points where you can not do it on public transport.
Driving on the island is not complicated, although there are some places with a lot of traffic. You must be very careful, as in any other place, to avoid accidents on the road.
Driving tips for Lanzarote
Walking by car in Lanzarote will allow you to take better advantage of the time and reach places that you can not by public transport. You will have more freedom to move around the island and know it thoroughly.
But if you decide to travel to Lanzarote by car, you must take into account the basic information. First of all you have to know that the rules are the same that are followed in the rest of Spain. Driving on the right, overtaking is done on the left. In the roundabouts also gives way to cars that come from the left.
On the island, the ratio of cars per person is higher than the state average. According to regional statistics there are more than 125 thousand cars. While the number of residents is around 147 thousand. This means that there are some critical points in urban centers, but in general it is comfortable to drive.
Then we leave you the recommendations so that your trip to the steering wheel is the best.
Familiarize yourself with the roads
Familiarize yourself with the roads of Lanzarote before leaving by car. On the Internet, it is easy to find maps with the routes that will help you plan your routes. Locate the points of greatest interest to those you want to visit and calculate the distances. It will be easier if you arrive on the island with an idea of where to go and how to get there.
Nowadays technology makes it much easier. With just a GPS you can easily locate yourself on the island and find the best way to get from one point to another. For example, where you should go if you want to visit Arrecife and from there go to Órzola.
Even if you have a GPS you should know some basic information. The regional routes of greater interest are LZ-1, which goes from Órzola to the capital Arrecife; The LZ-2 that connects Arrecife with Playa Blanca. And the LZ-3, also called the Circunvalación de Arrecife.
The tracks are in good condition, but you always have to take precautions. Especially on roads that have double track with only one channel in each direction.
Respect speed limits
It is a basic rule that you must respect wherever you go. Stay within the established speed limits to avoid accidents. You have to be careful when driving. The maximum speeds established are:
100 kilometers per hour (km / h) on highways.
110 km / h to overtake other cars.
40 km / h in residential and urban areas.
In addition, you must be very attentive and comply with all the rules. In the mountain areas you have to be very careful because the roads are usually very narrow. Avoid making maneuvers that put your life or that of other users.
Always carry your driving license and, if you drive motorcycles and other mopeds, you must have your helmet at all times.
Follow the rules
It’s not just driving speed, but you have to respect all the rules. It is possible to see other drivers who do not comply, but failure to do so can result in a fine.
Station only in the places established for such action. Around the island, especially in the most touristic places there are many free zones and squares that you must pay for. No stations in front of zebra crossings or garbage cans. And pay attention to the indicators of the roads.
Locate nearby gas stations
The island is small and with a tank of gasoline you can walk comfortably for a good time, since it lasts about 500 kilometers. However, you should not trust, because there are places where you will not find gas stations or those that close at night.
Before leaving, locate the nearest gas station and fill the tank if necessary, according to the route you take.
Write down these tips to drive around Lanzarote and avoid complications during your holidays. If you prefer to use a taxi service, contact us.

News
Transportation of the future is not only in the hands of experts from countries such as the US and China. The electric autonomous bus is the result of the work of more than sixty engineers from Spanish universities who are working on developments to turn the country into a leading power in the global vehicle market of the future. “This project represents something incredible,” says Ricardo Chicharro, Consulting Director for Smart Transportation at 2RK. A few years ago, he raised the issue of the need to create and implement a modern collective autonomous transport system in Spain. During one of their trips to the Timanfaya National Park, where fifty diesel buses make daily tours, Chicharro and his colleagues reflected on the environmental impact of such transport. According to estimates, they release about 470 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere per year.
The University of Carlos III and the Spanish Road Association immediately supported the development of modern transport initiative, which was gradually joined by various companies and institutions, including the Motor Vehicle Safety Institute, the Mapfre España insurance company and the National Institute of Aerospace Engineering. This is how the CITIES Timanfaya sustainable and safe transport project was born. “Nothing like it exists today. Until now, no one has realized the idea of creating autonomous buses in such a difficult area as Timanfaya, to transport more than a million people a year, ”experts say. The Council of Lanzarote notes that the implementation of this project will also become an impetus for the further development of tourism.
Safety is one of the key aspects of this vehicle. Thanks to a modern system of adaptation to its surroundings, dynamic control and speed control, the bus will be able to safely bypass cars, people who may meet on its way, as well as all animals inhabiting the natural park. It will have a fifth level of autonomy, which implies the absence of a steering wheel, gear lever, clutch pedal and brake. José María Armingol, a professor at the Department of Systems and Automation Engineering at the Carlos III University of Madrid, explains that this technology is typically applied to cars that only travel on short, linear paths and established lanes. As for the new bus, it will have to cover more than 14 kilometers of routes with steep ascents and descents. Armingol also adds that the Timanfaya National Park will become a pilot site for new transport technologies, which will make it possible to adapt them to other sites.
The project was sent to the General Directorate of Road Traffic, as well as the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, with the aim of obtaining the support of government agencies and creating an inter-agency working group that will stimulate the necessary adaptation of legislation to autonomous driving. Elena de la Peña, Deputy Director of the Spanish Road Association, notes that this is one of the unfinished and priority stages of the project implementation. “In such innovative areas, the creation of new technologies is always ahead of the law. Legal regulation at this stage is necessary to further address insurance issues,” she says.
A few weeks ago, a group of CITIES Timanfaya experts went to Lanzarote to collect data on the Ruta de los Volcanes route for further optimization and creation of an electronic map. For data collection, they use differential GPS, which is considered much more accurate than conventional, as well as stereo cameras and lidar equipment (technology for obtaining and processing information about distant objects using optical systems, which allows obtaining accurate data in three dimensions). It is planned that the first tests of the new transport will begin as early as January 2020, a few months before the first two electric autonomous buses are launched in the Timanfaya National Park.

Lanzarote resort Puerto Del Carmen
Where is the island of Lanzarote?! The answer to this question is not known to many tourists, moreover, the existence of this mysterious island of the Canary archipelago is not suspected even by those who have already rested more than once in its immediate vicinity – on the island of Tenerife. Lanzarote reviews of tourists – the topic of our article today!
Lanzarote tourist reviews: Aviamania route
On the AirBerlin website, I found very convenient tickets for a flight from St. Petersburg to Lanzarote, the return ticket was already from the island of Gran Canaria, which we visited on the same trip after Lanzarote.
This article is very interesting, but in 2017 we returned to the island and I published an even more informative article for you, which I recommend reading!
In Lanzarote
Immediately upon arrival in Lanzarote, we were met by Komodo Dragon, which can be seen in reality by visiting Rancho Texas Park. We did it and enjoyed it immensely. For helpful tips, prices and lots of animal photos and videos from eagle, sea lion and parrot shows, see article Rancho Texas Lanzarote .
The first part of my article is devoted to the story of the place of our residence, and the rest is entirely devoted to the most popular resort in Lanzarote – Puerto del Carmen (Puerto del Carmen).
Villa Alondra
We decided to settle on the island in a luxurious five-star villa in the resort of Puerto Del Carmen. Looking ahead, I will say that according to our guide, who spoiled us with exciting excursions, our villas are the best option for a quality relaxing holiday in this part of the island. The complex of villas and bungalows is located a little on the outskirts of the resort, but by taxi for 5 euros you can get to the resort center in a couple of minutes or walk 15 minutes to the main street of the resort. The remoteness from the embankment was a big plus for us, since only gusts of wind broke the silence, while in the heart of the resort, numerous restaurants open until late for a long time would not let us fall asleep after a busy day.
Cost of living
You can choose an option to stay at Allondra Villas for different budgets. The cost per night for a villa with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a private terrace and a swimming pool is comparable to the cost of a 20m2 room for two in a four-star hotel in Europe. There was no transfer from the airport, so we took a taxi and arrived at the settlement.
Taxi in the Canary Island Lanzarote
As far as taxis from the airport, Lanzarote does not have a 100% quick customer service system. Upon arrival of the plane, most of them go outside from the airport and end up in a long queue running along the building, the queue moves rather slowly, taxis drive up slowly.
There is one more nuance: if, for example, in Mallorca, at such taxi ranks near the airport, everything was decided by a special person who seated large families in roomy cars, then in Lanzarote there was a queue and a person got into a minivan alone, and the family following him in turn out of five people with suitcases did not fit into the next approaching cars and let four more families through while waiting for a car that could accommodate them.
Check-in at the villa
The villa was paid by me in advance, so we were settled very quickly and without any problems. Villa number 14, the keys to which we received, was a couple of minutes walk from the place of settlement, we could leave things and they would have delivered them to us, but we decided not to waste time and went to the villa with our suitcases.
A very beautiful and well-groomed area around quite large and very nice houses makes this place homely and friendly.
Lanzarote photo report
Our villa was very clean, beautiful and impressed with thoughtful details. The only disappointment was the cold pool, which, given the not hot and windy weather, was not at all comfortable to swim in. But this problem was solved – in a couple of minutes walk there was a common heated pool, which was larger and much warmer. In it, our daughter honed her swimming lessons. But back to talking about the villa..
If you go out onto the terrace, you feel almost like in paradise: straw furniture, cozy clean sun loungers by the pool, beautiful view and greenery, and most importantly, silence.
Review of the Canary Islands with photo:
Now a little about the interior decoration: the furniture does not glow with precious metal overflows, but all the furniture and interior decoration are of high quality and solid. If the cabinet and table, then from the array, if the floor – then from marble. All the walls are decorated with paintings, and books in Spanish flaunt on the shelves in a row.
Important to know:
When choosing a place to live on the island, take into account the fact that there is no hot water here, only tanks heated by the sun at large hotels and boilers, often of a small volume. Do not be too lazy to read reviews or contact the hotel directly so that you do not suffer after checking in and do not wait in turn for the water in the boiler to heat up. In the case of our villa, there were no such problems.
What is in the villa:
There are three bedrooms, one of them has a double bed, the rest have two single beds. There is a spacious wardrobe with hangers, a large mirror, a chair and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the pool, one of which you can move to the terrace and sunbathe. Each bedroom, as well as the living room, has air conditioning. During our visit, the air conditioners worked great, but they did not work for cooling, but for heating. Yes, yes, imagine, you can freeze in the Canary Islands. We got to the island during a cyclone that brought strong winds and low temperatures at night. During the day, the weather pleased about 20 degrees Celsius, and at night it dropped to 12 degrees, which was very noticeable.
Advice:
When choosing a place to stay, ask about the availability of air conditioning, since, as noted above, it will save you not only from the heat, but also from the cold. Otherwise, you will have to come up with less convenient ways to keep warm, for example, sleeping with the stove on, dragging the bed to the kitchen.
Kitchen
We were going to cook at the villa, at least breakfast. The kitchen was fully equipped for cooking: the presence of all necessary equipment (stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator), dishes and absolute cleanliness.
For breakfast we spoiled ourselves with oven baked Canary potatoes. Jamon, cheese, honey and even wine also went with a bang. As a present, upon check-in, we were given 1.5 liters of water and a box of delicious sweets.
Heated pool in Lanzarote
Since it was not possible to swim in the pool in the villa due to the low water temperature, the next day after arrival, and it was December 31, 2014, we went to look for the heated pool of our complex.
The discovery was quickly discovered and, so to speak, tested on myself. The daughter, despite the cloudy and windy weather, quickly jumped into the water, from where it was very problematic to lure her out later. The area around the large pool is very pleasant, around the wooden flooring and double deck chairs.
To take a photo, I had to walk a bit on the lawns)
Restaurant
Here, by the pool itself, there is a restaurant where at lunchtime they were already starting to prepare for the new year and arranged the dishes. I did not even know what holiday was planned in Allondra Villas, because even before the trip I decided to celebrate the New Year 2015 in the Lagomar restaurant, which is also one of the most visited museums on the island. Read about how it all went in article New Year in the Canaries 2015 , and we will return to our article.
Let’s move on to the story of how the island’s most popular resort appeared before us.
Lanzarote tourist reviews:
Puerto del Carmen
To begin with, I note that many of our compatriots (independent travelers) choose Puerto del Carmen not because it is the best place on the island, but because it is most described in Internet as a resort well adapted to relaxation.
I chose it for the same reasons, but after visiting the island, I must note the following: Puerto del Carmen is not the most beautiful, not the most fun, and certainly not the most beach resort.
There are a lot of aged vacationers here, locals live and work here, it is big here, but is not the most beautiful beach on the island . Read the article to the end and I will tell you where to go depending on your needs and preferences, maybe the choice will fall on this place ?!
Walk to the ocean:
So, the first thing we did was go towards the ocean. The first walk was, so to speak, blindly, that is, without a map and a special understanding of where we were going. In fact, we wanted to kill two birds with one stone: look at the ocean and find a restaurant for dinner.
After walking for about 15 minutes, we went down to the embankment. This was not Puerto Del Carmen beach, it was a favorite place for divers, where there were a great many of them. Right on the shore, people were reincarnated in diving gear, and someone was already diving in a special bay enclosed by a stone fence.
Just behind the diving site was a small beach – a private beach from the hotel, located on the shore, which anyone could go to if they wanted to. Despite the wind and the almost complete absence of sun, people swam and sunbathed on the shore.
We didn’t go further, as it was clear that we had chosen not quite the right trajectory and in order to get to the central beach of the resort, we had to not go down to the ocean, but move left to the main street and continue moving for another 10 minutes fifteen.
Search for a restaurant
Since hunger did not allow us to make such a long journey that day, and even without a resort map, we decided to complete task number two and find ourselves a good restaurant to relax.
No panoramic or even conventional restaurants were found along the coastline in this part of the resort, so we headed back to the villa, as we met a dozen places along the way where we can enjoy lunch.
Wine tasting
Attention was drawn to a store that sold wine, and since we were in no hurry, we stopped by to inquire and buy a bottle of wine for ourselves at the villa.
We liked the very pleasant interior and the neatly arranged bottles sorted by the year of bottling on the shelves. But even more we liked the fact that we could taste the varieties of wine we liked before buying.
As they say in Spain – Salud, that is, to health.
After the tasting it was already more fun to choose a restaurant) We decided to opt for a restaurant offering Italian and Indian cuisine.
Trattoria Miscela
Unfortunately, at the time of planning our second trip to the island in 2017, I discovered that this restaurant is closed and no longer accepts a visitor! It’s a pity….
Menu in Russian and prices
You should not wait for a menu in Russian from restaurants in Lanzarote, it is better to learn the names of dishes that you like and ask for a menu in English. In general, with regard to prices in the restaurants of the island, they are very humane. You can dine together with wine for 40-50 euros, which is relatively inexpensive compared to many resorts.
Indian cuisine
On our first day at this restaurant, we decided to try Indian cuisine. If you decide to try Indian dishes, then if you are not a fan of insanely hot sauces, then do not forget to say No spicy (not spicy). Be sure that it will be spicy anyway, but if you do not say this, you can be left without dinner. We enjoyed the meal, the service was excellent.
I wrote that on our first visit we tried Indian dishes, because after the first there was another second, and then the third … The service here was very good and the food was inexpensive and tasty.
National Spanish food
The next day we decided to try the national dish, which was also present here – paella. The choice fell on the traditional paella with chicken. Portion requires a minimum of two, we ordered for three and ate to satiety. I have never eaten such a delicious paella anywhere in Spain !!!!
Caramel vodka Spain
Every time after the meal we were given a gift from the chef — caramel vodka liqueur. This is a liqueur produced on the island of Gran Canaria, with a very mild and unusual taste.
After lunch in our favorite restaurant, we only had enough energy to go to the villa and relax …
December 31 in Lanzarote
On the morning of December 31, we called a taxi at the reception and drove to the center of the resort of Puerto Del Carmen.
We were dropped off on the embankment, on one side of which the Atlantic Ocean was raging, and on the other, shops alternated with restaurants.
By the way, Lanzarote and shopping are two concepts that have not met…
A couple of shopping malls with brands and just a few shops, but this is the largest concentration on the island. Therefore, if you need to buy not fakes, then this is here in Puerto Del Carmen.
The ocean in Puerto Del Carmen
The ocean is as beautiful as always… Power and strength were felt in every wave rolling on the shore.
On the small beaches there was a red flag, which meant that swimming was prohibited due to unfavorable conditions, in this case it was stormy.
The beaches of Puerto Del Carmen
Palm trees and greenery around, until it was clear how Lanzarote differs from the same Tenerife with the same palm trees and the ocean. We probably would not have understood this if we had not gone on a crazy excursion full of adrenaline and impressions with a private guide, which lasted two days and which I described in detail in the articles: Lanzarote: an unreal trip to Mars and Lanzarote: amazing and frightening beauty of the young part of the island .
Peculiarities of the Canary Islands:
But the resort of Puerto De Carmen, though not by nature, differed from the resorts of Tenerife in that the concentration of people on its streets was ten times less than on its more popular neighbor. Lanzarote disposed to a peaceful rest alone with nature and made it possible to listen to the ocean and the sound of the wind alone, surrounded by the bewitching landscapes of lava banks.
In general, everything on the island is conducive to relaxation and unity with nature.
Canarian village
Christmas-themed installations adorn the streets of the city. For example, the photo below shows a Canarian village with white houses typical of Lanzarote no higher than two floors.
And here is the main beach of the resort: yellow sand is quite large, there are water activities, sunbeds and umbrellas. Only now the weather was not particularly conducive to a beach holiday, so the beach was almost empty.
You could walk for several kilometers along the alley along the ocean and breathe the sea breeze, and if you get bored, you can always cross the road and go shopping or drink coffee in a restaurant. By the way, in the resort, and in particular on its main promenade, restaurants with a terrace on the second floor are very common. That is, the first floor, for example, a store, and on the side or inside there is a staircase upstairs, from where a good view of the ocean opens. We also noticed that not so many people prefer to drink wine, beer is much more popular here, so the presence of beer pubs is more common on the main street.

Eating inexpensively and tasty in Lanzarote
If you don’t plan to eat in a restaurant, you can have a snack in a mobile pancake shop. The choice of toppings is large, they cook very diligently, the prices are humane.
And now a few words about what makes this resort special and where else you can settle on the island and get a lot of fun.
Other resorts of Lanzarote
In addition to Puerto del Carmen, there are many options in Lanzarote worthy of a stay. For example, if you are young, active and full of energy for an active beach holiday, then you will definitely like the surfer beach of Famara.
Near it there are offers of inexpensive accommodation in apartments and hotels. Near Famara it is fun day and night, and along the coast there are restaurants with fresh seafood and inexpensive prices and surfing lessons, including with Russian-speaking instructors.
If you are not interested in fun and surfing, you love breathtaking beaches and silence, then the south of the island – the resort of Playa Blanca – will suit you.
There are unusually picturesque beaches of Papagayo.
Peculiarities of roads in Lanzarote
In general, Lanzarote is a small island and wherever you settle, you can easily get to the right place. It does not require driving skills on mountain serpentines, as in Tenerife or Gran Canaria. There are no high peaks in Lanzarote and the roads are mostly flat and visibility is good, so the best option is to rent a car. It is cheaper to do it in advance via the Internet, it will be more expensive on the spot.

Our summer holidays in Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, Canary Islands
For many years now I have been organizing my vacation on my own without involving any travel intermediaries. Our last year’s vacation on about. My daughter and I liked Fuerteventura so much that already on the way back home, flying in an airplane, we enthusiastically planned our next vacation / vacation in the Canary Islands again, but with a visit to another island – Lanzarote, which is only 25 minutes away . ferry ride from about. Fuerteventura.
Therefore, in advance, or rather, from January 2015, I began to seriously engage in preparations. In January, tickets were purchased for Vueling on the route Kyiv-Barcelona-Lanzarote (Arrecife), Fuerteventura-Barcelona-Kyiv. The tickets were redeemed very on time, because in February the euro began to skyrocket and my ticket by March would already cost UAH. 70% higher than I paid at the beginning of January. Then I began to decide on hotels – I approached the search in great detail, and we were absolutely satisfied with the hotels in which we ended up staying. These were: o. Lanzarote –
Melia Salines 5*, Costa Tequise; about. Fuerteventura – “Riu Jandia Palace 4*”, Morro Jable. I had 6 hotels booked in the long list of hotels (3 per island), but since I monitored special offers and promotions, as soon as I received them, I canceled bookings for all other hotels. More details about the hotels below.
Then came the turn to decide on a car rental on each island. About the machines a little more, so that later on they do not stop.
I also ordered a car in advance and, accordingly, by early booking in Cicar (in Lanzarote, the office is called somehow differently, it seems Carera Medina is the largest of the car rental offices on the islands, most likely). I ordered a Seat Ibiza automatic on both islands, but in fact both Lanzarote and Fuerteventura drove cars of other brands, but with automatic transmission. And in Lanzarote and Fuerteventura I rented a car for 6 days (12 days in total), which cost me 320 euros!
In Lanzarote they gave me a much higher class car – a black Volvo sedan with a leather interior and full stuffing (there was even a parking sensor) for the same money for which I ordered a simple Ibiza! In addition, Volvo was on diesel (also saving)! Volvo is a beautiful car with a very smooth ride. The only thing that did not work in the car was the cigarette lighter, which I use as a charger for the navigator, but there was a USB port, which I used.
In Fuerteventura, there were some difficulties with the car, because when I got into the car, I found that it was on the mechanics. I have experience in driving a car with a manual gearbox, more precisely, it was 6 years ago, but the idea to remember again how to drive a car with a manual gearbox in an emergency order during the holidays did not smile at me at all, especially since I paid something for a car with a gun, which costs a little more. There was no car with an automatic transmission nearby (in the port and the city of Corralejo, where the ferry from Lanzarote arrived), I was asked to come and get the car only at the airport (about 40-50 km from the seaport). After a short explanation with the employees of the office (everything within the bounds of decency, no quarrels), very soon (within a couple of minutes) an employee was found who delivered me and my daughter to the airport in the same car, where they were already waiting for us with the keys to another car with automatic transmission .
And it was again not Seat Ibiza, but Ford Fiesta, which is also not bad. Of course, after the Volvo, Ford seemed rather weak, especially in terms of the engine, with a volume of no more than 1.2 liters (on the rises along winding roads, the traction sometimes dropped sharply), but nevertheless, everything in it worked fine (air conditioning, radio, cigarette lighter, etc.) .
We traveled a lot, but due to the fact that the islands are small, I refueled on each island 2 times for 20 euros.
So, we flew from Kyiv on Vueling on August 12, 2015 with an hour delay at 7 am and after 3 hours 15 minutes we were in Barcelona, where we spent about 3 hours and then flew to about. Lanzarote. The flight to Lanzarote was exciting, because the sound of the plane’s engines made us very nervous at the very beginning of the journey. When we took off over the Mediterranean Sea (as usual), the engines, which had previously roared, suddenly died down abruptly, and then roared again . .. . I understand that the take-off regime apparently changed so much … but it was very exciting. Lera was very frightened, but then there were no more such sharp audible changes … through thick clouds and medium turbofly, we flew to Lanzarote in 2 hours and 45 minutes and were at the airport at about 4 in the afternoon.
Since we didn’t have to go through passport control (we went through it back in Bars), we got our suitcases (quickly), took a taxi (as usual, taxis are waiting for arrivals in an organized way at the exit of the terminal) and after 15 minutes we were in hotel. Taxi cost us 15.5 euros.
A little about the hotel. As usual, I chose my place of residence very carefully. I studied a lot of reviews about hotels, cities of residence in Lanzarote and, as a result, settled on 3 hotels in different cities (payment on arrival). In Costa Teguise, where we settled, I booked another hotel as well (4 stars – Barcelo Tequise Adults Only only after renovation), but I really wanted to settle in a 5-star Melia Salines , which is also located in Costa Teguise, but at the other end of the town, however, it was more expensive than all other options. But it was in this hotel that I really wanted to spend my vacation in Lanzarote, so I subscribed to the newsletter on the official website of the hotel, and when I saw a short-term promotion for accommodation (-20%) and calculated the cost of staying in it, it turned out that it was only 20 euro more expensive than all the other options I have booked. I gladly booked a good category room (Premier See View) in it and canceled my bookings for all other hotels closer to vacation.
In Fuerteventura in the winter of 2015, I booked a hotel Riu Jandia Palace 4 * is a German hotel chain, which I also found on the Internet. I also booked through the official website of the hotel, because it is not represented in the big Booking and Agoda search engines. I immediately liked this hotel very much, because it is located on the first line (you only need to go through the promenade), besides, I was simply amazed by the rooms that this hotel offers. Leroy and I visited Morro Jable last year when we traveled around the island, and we liked the sea and the width of the beach there, so this time we booked a room in a hotel in Morro Jable. Just in case, I made 2 more bookings in Costa Calma, but then, shortly before the vacation, I canceled them.
My opinion about hotels is that both are amazing in their own way. Hotel Melia Salinas is a rather old building (according to the guidebook, it was from this that the tourism business on the island of Lanzarote began.) The hotel was designed with the participation of Cesar Manrique and you can feel it in its interior – white paths interspersed with dark volcanic stones, a lot of greenery – just a tropical park in the atrium. Huge beautiful and deep pool. Since the hotel is more focused on adults (very few children were seen, nothing is provided for them in the hotel – no animation, no playgrounds), then peace and quiet. When I made the booking, in the “special preferences / wishes” section, I “wished” a room higher and away from noisy places (restaurant, bar, pool). And my wishes were fully fulfilled. We were settled in the part of the hotel that goes to the Level part. This part represents the “Hotel in the Hotel” (this is how Melia positions the Level) in general, only for adults. We had the last, 4th floor, with a good view of the sea (oh, sorry, the ocean) (very deserted, but also very quiet at the same time). It was very nice to fall asleep to the sound of the ocean. 50% of the guests are Spaniards, 50% are other nationalities (many English, Americans), we did not meet anyone from the “Russian speakers” during our entire stay! During our stay, the tides were low in the morning, so it was impossible to swim in the ocean until 12:00 because of the stones, but after 12 the ocean approached the shore with cool waves. You can read my review in detail about this hotel at this link:
Hotel Riu Jandia Palaca is a famous German hotel chain. The hotel in Morro Jable was family-oriented, so there are a lot of children, but since the hotel is large, the vacationers are distributed in such a way that those who come together (couples, a family with adult children) are accommodated away from the noisy crowd of children . There was peace and quiet in our C wing. Of the vacationers, 90% are Germans / Austrians and 10% are other European nationalities (English, Americans, Spaniards and we are 2 people from UkraineJ). Of the “Russian speakers” there were several adult couples, and even then they were Russian Germans, that is, people who left Russia 20 years ago and have been living in Germany for a long time.
As usual, in both hotels I bought accommodation + half board (breakfast-dinner), which were traditionally very good both in Melia and in Rio. Both hotels offer all-inclusive systems, but we have not been attached to dinners for a long time.
So, o. Lanzarote – the first part of our trip (August 12-20, 2015).
I really liked the tourist town of Costa Teguise. It is quite small (in Lanzarote, perhaps Arrecife, the capital, is a fairly large city, all others are cozy resort towns and villages). Traditionally, the village is very clean, with excellent sidewalks and road markings. You can always find parking spaces. Many small shopping centers nearby (famous brands are not sold there, more and more what is needed for a beach holiday). Lots of HyperDino grocery supermarkets. There were 2 of them near our hotel (immediately opposite and around the corner where the Shopping Center was located). It is very convenient when you need to buy drinking water, because in Lanzarote the water is desalinated, it is not recommended to use it for drinking. In the supermarket, a 2-liter bottle of water cost 1 euro. And other products were at normal prices.
Why I like to vacation in Europe (after all, the Canary Islands are Spanish territories), because no one is trying to shamelessly cheat on you, as was the case in Thailand, in March of this year. If you get into a taxi, then everything is metered, price tags are everywhere, clean and safe. Neither Lanzarote nor Fuertoventura have a criminal danger.
And, of course, a paradise for lovers of perfumes and cosmetics: the prices are just flying, in the Canary Islands there are special trading conditions for perfumers, so their products are 30-40 percent cheaper than even in the average Duty Free.
We stayed in Lanzarote for 8 days and 5 of them we had a rented car.
We have visited many interesting places in Lanzarote, but not all. Therefore, there is a reason to return and watch!! !
We left almost every day, even if not for the whole day, then at least half a day (the island is small). We visited: Timanfaya Volcanic Park, camel rides, Rancho Texas Park Zoo (2 times), Cesare Manrique’s house-museum, the town of Teguise during the fair, climbed the mountain to the Santa Barbara fortress, visited the Cactus Park, Papagayo beaches. Each place was loved in its own way. The Rancho Texas Zoo is remembered for white tigers, owls at the entrance, and many other exotic crawling creatures. The Cesar Manrique House Museum is something. Built almost on a lava field, the house has 2 levels, and the second one was built (carved) just in the lava on the -1 floor. Again, there is a combination of black lava, white walls and paths in the house. I liked it very much! In the Cactus Garden, many different species of cacti are collected from tiny to whole cactus trees from all over the world.
Timanfaya Park is a must see! I must admit that we arrived there at the peak of visits, so after riding camels, we stood in line for another hour to enter the territory. You can’t walk on the territory of the reserve! When we stopped at the park, we made another 40-minute excursion on the park bus through the reserved lava places. How did you get to Mars? ! ! In some places it was so scary that I closed my eyes when the bus was driving along the mountain serpentine – an unforgettable experience! And everywhere everything is for quite reasonable money: camel rides – 12 euros per person, a visit to the park – 9Euro. The most expensive was, of course, the zoo (22 euros per person), but since we first arrived 2 hours before closing, we were offered 2 options: a ticket with a discount or a ticket for a full price, but with the possibility of visiting park for the second time. That’s why we visited the park twice with a one-day ticket! On the territory of Rancho Texas, in addition to the absolutely well-groomed zoo area, there is also a recreation area with swimming pools, slides, beach chairs, i. e. you can spend the whole day at the zoo, see animals, dine in a classy restaurant stylized as an American pub, and even sunbathe and to swim … everything is so thought out! !
We didn’t plan to go to the beaches of Papagayo on purpose, but since we still went to Playa Blanca for tickets for the ferry to Fuerteventura, we popped into the beaches for a couple of hours in one go. These beaches reminded me a lot of May Beach in Thailand. Yes, it’s beautiful, the water is clear and deep emerald in color, but the heat is unbearable and there is no shade (we got there around 15:30). You need to get to the beach along a dirt road (15 minutes), paying 3 euros per car for entry. Then you put the car on the parking lot and go down to one of the beaches. We didn’t choose for a long time (in the heat we didn’t want to go to the far beach at all) and went to the beach on the left, stayed there for 2.5 hours (it was very hot, because the beach is surrounded by rocks on all sides (there was no shade), we bought in clear water (you can’t sit in it for a long time – the temperature was clearly lower than on our beach in Costa Teguise). In general, you can go once.0003
In the evenings, after dinner, we walked along the Costa Teguise with its many different shops and restaurants and enjoyed the rest. The daily routine was observed perfectly: at the latest, they fell asleep at 12 at night, woke up at 8 in the morning for breakfast.
8 marvelous days in Lanzarote flew by unnoticed. And I want to go back there again!
Our next stop was Fr. Fuerteventura, where we traveled on the Fred Olsen high-speed ferry, which runs to Fuertoventura in 25 minutes. Tickets for two cost 58 euros. We checked out of the hotel at 12:00 (on this day we also went to sunbathe to the pool and to the beach). When booking (through the official website of the Melia Hotel) there was a nice bonus – a voucher for 15 euros per room per day, which could be spent on buying various drinks in the restaurants and bars of the hotel. Thanks to this nice check-out bonus, I paid only 5 something extra euros, although every evening we always ordered something in the restaurant, and we also drank soft drinks and ate ice cream in the beach bar every day.
We got into our beautiful rental car and drove to the port. To go to the port about 35 km, the island is not big. Upon arrival, I parked the car, threw the keys into a special box in the rental office and we went to wait for our Fred Olsen ferry to Fuertoventura.
The ferry departed on schedule and after 25 minutes we were already in Fuerta in the port of Corralejo. The ferry is fast, and I almost all the time stood on the open deck, looking at the receding Lance and the approaching Fuerta. Somewhere in the middle of the journey, the weather began to change, the sky was overcast and we arrived in Corralejo in cloudy weather.
I also ordered a car at the port, but, as I wrote above, there were some inconsistencies with it, so Leroy and I already received our car with automatic transmission at the Fuerta airport. We drove to the airport for about 40 minutes, yet Fuerta is 2.5 times more than Lance. We passed the famous dunes of Corralejo. After receiving the car, already driving myself, I drove to Morro Jable in about an hour (a little over 70 km). It was nice to see already familiar places – we passed the Elba Carlota in Calet de Fusto hotel, where we rested last year, Oasis Park and other familiar places, and around 17:00 we reached the Riu Jandia Palace hotel.
We quickly settled in the hotel, it took us a long time to reach our room, but the room, of course, impressed us with its size! It was located close to the promenade on the first, but very high floor, surrounded by various tropical vegetation. The hotel is built so interesting that even from the first floor the promenade path is not visible, and the floor itself, due to the rocky terrain in this part of Morro Jable, is very high and only a climber in full equipment can reach it)). The reception and the hotel pool are located much higher, at the level of the 3rd or 4th floor. In general, the construction of the hotel is very interesting and multi-level. The hotel, again, satisfied all my wishes regarding peace and tranquility.
The purpose of our 5-day stay in Fuerta (August 20-25) was purely beach. And the beach in Morre Jable is wonderful, the wind is not strong, the ocean is clean, turquoise and warm! ! However, we still visited the places we liked earlier: the Oasis Park Zoo, where we spent half a day, the wild ocean beach of Cofete and the Rotunda shopping center in Puerto de Rosario.
About Cofete: last year it was the road that I remember the most – an unfenced mountain serpartin with a narrow dirt road. When I first drove a car on it last year, after I had already left on a more or less flat part of the road, I needed a stop in order to just take a breath (my knees were really shaking), so this year, I I put off our trip there again longer, but my daughter really wanted to jump on the waves again, which still persuaded me to make this terrible route again. And, of course, the second time the road seemed much easier to me. The weather, however, let us down a little on Kofete. Nevertheless, this is the leeward western part of the island, and as a cloud hung on the mountain, it did not move anywhere else, but brought with it only a strong cold wind and sand. And the ocean this time was cold here. In general, we only had enough for an hour, we formed up and returned to Morro Jable, where it was hot, sunny and almost windless!
The town of Morro Jable itself is quite crowded and touristy, and you could always find something to do in the evenings: a lot of restaurants, cafes, discos, shops … . Very crowded in the evening.
On the day of departure, we spent time on the beach until check-out, checked out, got into the car and went to the airport. Everything else was according to the usual scheme: airport – plane to Barcelona (with a delay in departure from Fuerta by 1.5 hours) – a couple of hours at Barcelona airport (various shopping) – plane to Kyiv and we are at home! The weather was good, the planes were new (the sound of the engine did not frighten us).
My opinion about Lanzarote and Fuertoventura: the sights are Lanzarote’s palm (only Cesar Manrique and his architecture are worth something!), and the beaches are definitely Fuertevenura! Our beach in Morro Jable was simply amazing: wide, long with a beautiful entry into the sea, with clear emerald water and no low tide felt at all (maybe we were so lucky, because we were only there 5 days from August 20 to 25). Compared to last year’s Caleta de Fusto holiday, this year’s beach holiday was much better. I would return to Fuerteventura more than once, and it was in Morro Jable.

Important information for driving while on holiday in Spain
Basic driving rules
Drive on the right side of the road, overtake on the left.
Always turn on the dipped beam headlights in a tunnel.
The use of mobile devices while driving is prohibited, but they can be used with hands-free systems.
The GPS navigator must be programmed in advance, before the car has started moving.
Always give way to buses and taxis.
Necessary documents and equipment When driving in Spain, always carry your passport, driver’s license, car rental contract, registration document and insurance certificate with you. Drivers residing in other countries are required to have an International Driving Permit, while EU residents are usually only required to have their national driving licence. A reflective triangular sign and an emergency stop vest must be provided by the rental company.
Drinking alcohol and driving The maximum blood alcohol level is set at 0.05%, and there are severe penalties for drunk driving. From time to time, drivers may be tested for alcohol using a breath analyzer, especially during the holidays. Fines for traffic violations in Spain are mandatory, and non-residents must pay them on the spot.
Fuel Petrol stations (“gasolineras”) in Spain are usually open from 8.00 to 20.00. However, some of them, located in large cities and on freeways, are open around the clock. Unleaded gasoline is called gasolina sin plomo (“gasolina sin plomo”). Diesel fuel is called gasóleo (“gasoleo”). Remember that many gas stations close for the traditional siesta in the afternoon, so it’s best to always have enough fuel in the tank.
Theft and damage In case of theft or burglary, get a police report to add to your insurance claim. Do not leave anything of value in your rental car (not even in the trunk).
Insurance Third party liability insurance is mandatory in the EU and must be included in your car rental agreement. Full coverage from Mondial Assistance is also offered, which costs only 6 euros per day and includes an excess of 3,000 euros for any insurance claim.
Seat belts When driving in Spain, the use of seat belts is mandatory for drivers and passengers. Children under the age of 12 cannot travel in the front seat.
Speed limits Speed limits are limited to 50 km/h in cities and towns, to 90 km/h on open roads and to 120 km/h on freeways (here they are called “autopistas”).
Roads and toll points There are toll booths on many motorways in Spain (they are called “ peahe “). Each freeway has its own pricing structure, so toll rates vary. On the mainland, most major cities are interconnected by toll freeways. You will simply need to pick up a ticket from the machine at the beginning of your journey and then present it at the exit. As a rule, both cash and credit cards are accepted for payment.
Emergency In Spain, you can call the police, firefighters or an ambulance on the emergency number 112. In the event of an emergency or a breakdown of the car, put on a protective vest before leaving it. At a safe distance from the rear of the car, a reflective emergency stop triangle will need to be installed, which warns approaching drivers of the danger. On motorways, in an emergency, you can use one of the orange SOS phones, which are installed along the road at a distance of approximately 5 km from each other.

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 Costa Blanca is essentially constant during November, remaining within 1% of 1% throughout.

November’s traditional weather in Costa Blanca is fairly miserable, but that is if you compare it to the peaks of summer. With seven rainfall days for the month, rain is expected at some point during November. The amount of sunshine hours has now dropped to six per day.
Average Sea & Air Temperature
The sea temperatures are now just 18 degrees Celsius. On the upside, peak high temperatures still might reach the 20 degrees Celsius mark.
Costa Blanca Hotels in November
Apartamentos El Palmeral de Madaria
Alicante has a couple of brilliant hotels to stay in at this time of year. The Apartamentos El Palmeral de Madaria is good value for money, with superb public transport links nearby and the centre of Alicante only a heartbeat away. Set in an exotic palm garden, a rooftop sun terrace and an outdoor poor with hydro massage facilities are a couple of the unique selling points, along with several golf courses located nearby. Hotel Sidi San Juan, located in the Playa de San Juan district, is also not too far away from the golf courses.
Hotel Los Angeles
Hotel Los Angeles in Benidorm is positioned away from the nightlife entertainment so good if you want a bit of peace and quiet – and is a good choice for those sticking to a strict budget. The rooms in this two-star location are of very good quality, and it is popular with both locals and tourists who just want a low-key rather than high octane stay in Benidorm.
Villa Juan
Denia has a good range of private villas. The Villa Juan is among the best. Only footsteps away from the beach, this place is ideal if the main goal for your holiday is close proximity to the beach. Plus, Denia town is just 10 minutes away via car.
Servigroup La Zenia
The location of Servigroup La Zenia in Orihuela is also excellent. The weather is still warm in November, and there are plenty of indoor activities in the area to enjoy if the sun doesn’t shine. Plus, this hotel has on-site climbing apparatus to keep little ones amused, and the staff are praised by previous guests as being among the friendliest in the Orihuela region.
Beaches in Costa Blanca for November
La Mata Beach
One of the best beaches in Europe is La Mata beach in Torrevieja. There is plenty of beach bars along the promenade serving a range of local and European food and drinks. It looks even prettier come nightfall when the lights from the bars light beach up. La Mata gets very crowded in the summer, so visiting now will ensure a more peaceful experience.
Platja del Portet
Platja del Portet in Moraira is also well worth a visit. Sheltered and with plenty of shade, this beach is a lovely family-friendly beach with fine golden sand and clear water.
Bars and Restaurants
Restaurante Indonesia
Restaurante Indonesia in El Albir is authentic and Indonesian cuisine isn’t always easy to track down. Open from breakfast onwards, El Abir is a decent place for a spot of tasty lunch and or a delicious dinner. The owner cooks all the meals herself having lived in Indonesia throughout her childhood, so the food here is the real deal.
De Bassus
If you want to stick somewhere with European feel and flavour, try De Bassus in Orihuela. The restaurant is a little bit of Germany in Costa Blanca, with the restaurant staff wearing classic Bavarian costumes, 12 selections of sausage dishes and a Bavarian Specials menu. Brushing up on German language skills might win you brownie points!
Tablao Zambra
Alicante’s Tablao Zambra is one of the prime locations for night goers who want a real taste of Andalucía. There is a lot of talent on show, from musicians to dancers.
Jalousie Cocktail Bar
Or come to the Jalousie Cocktail Bar in Javea where all kinds of cocktail are made. From local Valencia flavours, to Italian sparkle and spicy Colombian ingredients, mix and match here to try and find the best cocktail of a visitors’ life.
Things to do in Costa Blanca in November
Volvo Ocean Race Museum
The port of Valencia used to be the famous setting for the prestigious Americas Cup; the world cup of sailing. In Costa Blanca, the Volvo Ocean Race Museum offers a greater insight into a sport that is often well down on the scale of high-profile worldwide sporting activity. The museum itself has a modern centurion feel to it, and some of sailing’s finest characters are profiled in some interesting exhibits.
Santa Barbara Castle
In the region of Alicante, Santa Barbara Castle is a historic castle and a unique journey back through time. The castle was first built back in the 10th century, so this attraction embraces history through the ages. There are hidden tunnels, stone passages and a real dungeon.
Fira de Tots Sants
One of Costa Blanca’s oldest events on the calendar is the Fira de Tots Sants. This celebrates and remembers all the saints of Costa Blanca on the first day of the month since 1346, and is a popular fair that sells all kinds of local produce.
2013 Benidorm Fiesta
A week later, the 2013 Benidorm Fiesta takes place. Although the programme of events is yet to be fully finalised, the event traditionally starts with the switching on of the fiesta lights on Martinez Alejos Street. Other events expected to feature include brass bands performing, firecrackers making their mark at the Plaza del Castillo, firework displays and concerts. The fiesta often lasts for a week, although there is a huge fancy dress party that regularly takes place a day later in the new part of Benidorm.

Introduction
The Costa Blanca (“White Coast”), the part of the Spanish south-eastern coast belonging to the province of Alicante, has a Mediterranean climate, with mild, relatively rainy winters and hot, sunny summers. Because of its exposure to the southeast, the Costa Blanca has a mild and sunny microclimate. There are towns like Denia, Javea, Moraira, Calpe, Altea, Benidorm, Villajoyosa, El Campello, Alicante, Elche, Guardamar del Segura, Torrevieja.
The daily average temperature ranges from about 12 °C (53.5 °F) in January and February to about 26 °C (79 °F) in July and August. Even in mid-winter, there are many sunny days, with daytime temperatures reaching or exceeding 20 °C (68 °F). In winter, very cold days are rare, but on colder periods, the minimum temperature can drop to about freezing; in practice, it never snows. The coldest records are around -4 °C (25 °F). In summer, there’s sultry heat, though it’s generally bearable, also because of the sea breeze, however, there may be periods of intense heat, during which the temperature can reach as high as 38/40 °C (100/104 °F).
Rainfall in the Costa Blanca is scarce, since it is even lower than 300 millimeters (12 inches) per year, and follows the Mediterranean pattern, in fact, most of it occurs from September to March, while in summer, it almost never rains. Rainy days are particularly rare, but when it rains, it can rain a lot, and the rains can sometimes be intense and concentrated in time, causing floods. Owing to the scarcity of rainfall, the landscape is arid.

The amount of sunshine in the Costa Blanca is decent in winter, when Atlantic or Mediterranean disturbances can sometimes affect this area, however, there is a good number of sunny days (there are on average 6 hours of sunshine per day even in January). Spring is a sunny season, especially in May. The sunniest period is from June to August, when clear skies are the norm. In September, there are the first Atlantic fronts, so in autumn the sun is not always guaranteed.

Best Time
The best time for a beach holiday in the Costa Blanca is the summer, from June to August. The water temperature is comfortable enough from July to September, although in September, which overall is still a good month (especially in the first half), the first Atlantic fronts begin to show up. May and June are sunny months, but the sea is still a bit cool, especially in May, when it is actually a bit cold.
Although good weather is not always guaranteed, spring and autumn are ideal for visiting cities and going on excursions to the interior, since it can be very hot in summer.

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 Madrid is essentially constant during February, remaining around 0% throughout.
For reference, on July 25, the muggiest day of the year, there are muggy conditions 0% of the time, while on January 1, the least muggy day of the year, there are muggy conditions 0% of the time.

This report illustrates the typical weather in Madrid, based on a statistical analysis of historical hourly weather reports and model reconstructions from January 1, 1980 to December 31, 2016.
Temperature and Dew Point
There are 3 weather stations near enough to contribute to our estimation of the temperature and dew point in Madrid.
For each station, the records are corrected for the elevation difference between that station and Madrid according to the International Standard Atmosphere , and by the relative change present in the MERRA-2 satellite-era reanalysis between the two locations.
The estimated value at Madrid is computed as the weighted average of the individual contributions from each station, with weights proportional to the inverse of the distance between Madrid and a given station.
The stations contributing to this reconstruction are:
To get a sense of how much these sources agree with each other, you can view a comparison of Madrid and the stations that contribute to our estimates of its temperature history and climate. Please note that each source’s contribution is adjusted for elevation and the relative change present in the MERRA-2 data.
Other Data
All data relating to the Sun’s position (e.g., sunrise and sunset) are computed using astronomical formulas from the book, Astronomical Algorithms 2nd Edition , by Jean Meeus.
All other weather data, including cloud cover, precipitation, wind speed and direction, and solar flux, come from NASA’s MERRA-2 Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis . This reanalysis combines a variety of wide-area measurements in a state-of-the-art global meteorological model to reconstruct the hourly history of weather throughout the world on a 50-kilometer grid.
Land Use data comes from the Global Land Cover SHARE database , published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
Elevation data comes from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) , published by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

We draw particular cautious attention to our reliance on the MERRA-2 model-based reconstructions for a number of important data series. While having the tremendous advantages of temporal and spatial completeness, these reconstructions: (1) are based on computer models that may have model-based errors, (2) are coarsely sampled on a 50 km grid and are therefore unable to reconstruct the local variations of many microclimates, and (3) have particular difficulty with the weather in some coastal areas, especially small islands.
We further caution that our travel scores are only as good as the data that underpin them, that weather conditions at any given location and time are unpredictable and variable, and that the definition of the scores reflects a particular set of preferences that may not agree with those of any particular reader.

February, most definitely, is an underrated month for traveling to Spain. The winter season along with hardly any public holidays are the reasons why most people spend February at home. But booking a holiday to Spain in February can be a rewarding experience. Lesser foot traffic means a drop in room prices at hotels and plenty of opportunities to have the attractions for yourself and a select few.
Spain Weather in February
Experience a different side of Spain in winter.
In comparison to other European countries, temperatures in Spain are mild during February. Cities on the south coast, such as Seville and Malaga, experience a warm winter with highs of 18℃ and lows of 8℃. Barcelona, given its Mediterranean climate, experiences a slightly colder but milder winter compared with other European countries. However, winters are colder in inland cities such as Madrid. The mercury in the Spanish capital generally hovers between 12℃ and 5℃ during this time of year. The temperature on the north coast is much more bearable, although the rain can hinder your outdoor plans in that region during February.

Why Visit Spain in February
The Sitges Carnival is celebrated before the forty days of Lent begin.
Most people visit Spain in the summer months to soak up the sun. But Spain also has a lot to offer during winter. If you have already been to Spain in summer, you will be surprised by how different the country feels during winters. Below are some reasons why you should travel to Spain in February.
Milder temperatures: Spain has a handful of winter escapades. Even though inland cities, such as Madrid, can get frigid, other places like Andalucía, Catalogna, and Valencia are still warm and sunny.
Fewer crowds: February falls in the low season when it comes to Spain tours, and unlike July and August, the country is not overcrowded with tourists. This has quite a few advantages for travelers. You will not only be able to skip the endless queues at main tourist attractions, but you will also have plenty of opportunities to interact with the locals.
Cheaper prices: Another great advantage of visiting Spain in February is that prices are way more affordable compared to the high season. You will surely get cheaper rates for your accommodation and other services, such as city tours, during this time of year.
Plenty of festivals: February also sees lots of festivals and celebrations in Spain. If you are heading to Spain in November, you must participate in the Sitges Carnival. This LGBTQ event is known all over the country for its crazy drag queen parade and night parties. Another great option is to take part in the Jerez Flamenco Festival, where you can watch beautiful shows and even enroll in flamenco classes.
Where to go and what to do
Standing 3,718 meters above sea level, Teide National Park is a unique composition of craters, volcanoes, and rivers of petrified lava.
In addition to numerous festivities, there are plenty of things to do in Spain in February. For instance, you can visit Granada and ski in the nearby mountains. The Sierra Nevada, which is close to this historic city, sees snow cover for the whole month, making this the perfect destination for winter sports lovers.
There can be no destination better than the Canary Islands for those wanting to escape the cold of the winter. Temperatures in these islands in February easily reach 20℃, seldom falling below 15℃. While in the islands, make sure that you visit Teide National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, where you can explore the crater of a volcano.
If you are interested in the culture of Spain, make sure to include historic cities like Barcelona, Seville, or Granada in your itinerary. See the monumental Alhambra while in Granada, witness spectacular flamenco shows in Seville, and gaze at the architectural masterpieces of Gaudí in Barcelona.
February has always been an underrated month when it comes to Spain tours. However, this month has its fair share of advantages. From the snowy peaks of the Sierra Nevada to the beautiful national parks of the Canary Islands and the many historical cities in the country, Spain in February will surely not disappoint you.

Best Time to Visit Spain – Full Month by Month Guide
Spain is consistently ranked one of the top travel destinations in the world, but if you’re considering travelling there, you’ll need to decide when is the best time to visit.
The thing is, your trip to Spain will look and feel completely different depending on which region you visit and what time of year you travel.
After all, Spain is the second largest country in Europe, with a wide diversity of climate and landscape – which means the weather can vary hugely from region to region.
It’s also the second most mountainous European country after Switzerland.
In order for you to decide when to visit Spain, keep in mind each season’s perks (lively festivals, sunny weather) and downfalls (crowds of tourists, hiked up hotel rates), as well as what it is you want to get out of your holiday.
The best time to visit Spain is either in late spring or early autumn – especially if you’re going to Andalucia or the Mediterranean coastal areas. Northern Spain is at its peak in the summer months (July and August), and central Spain is best visited in October or May.
Winter weather isn’t amazing anywhere in Spain, with some parts of the country even experiencing snow and ice.
Visiting Spain in winter is great, however, if you’re not too bothered by drab weather and you’re looking to save money, as hotel rates and restaurant prices tend to go down then.
Here’s when you should visit Spain, depending on what you consider to be the most important part of your trip.
When to go to Spain if you want…
Warm weather
Contrary to popular belief, not all of Spain is sunny and warm all year long. Likewise, summer is beautiful in parts of Spain, but it can be unbearably hot in other areas.
If your main reason for visiting Spain is to bask in the sunshine and warm weather, consider travelling to the beaches of Costa Brava in northeastern Spain during the summertime.
This region is easily accessible from Barcelona, and the average high is a pleasant 76° Fahrenheit (24° Celsius) in June and 80° F (27° C) in July and August.
Meanwhile, the super popular Mediterranean coast (home to Barcelona, Valencia and Malaga) has lovely weather in late spring and early autumn – think May-June and late September-October.
However, beware that it gets extremely hot in southern Spain at the height of summer – we’re talking upwards of 100° F (37-40° C) in August.
A summertime phenomenon locals call El Terral – a hot, dry wind that blows over the Mediterranean coast like a hairdryer – only adds to the discomfort!

Cheap prices
September to late November and January to March are known as the ‘shoulder seasons’ in Spain, which means they’re less popular times for tourists to visit.
This is great news for travellers who are trying to stay on a budget; Spain thrives on the tourism industry, so during shoulder season the majority of hotels and restaurants will slash their prices in order to attract more people.
Even the cost of flights to Spain is lower in the off-season, with November in particular seeing the cheapest prices.
So if you’re trying to save money, time your trip so that it falls outside of the normal summer and winter holiday periods.

Lively events
If there’s one thing Spain is famous for, it’s the energy and spirit that seems to emanate from everyone and everywhere in the country.
Want to truly immerse yourself in the Spanish way of life? Then plan your Spanish trip to coincide with one of the countless festivals and events that take place year on year.
For something a little different, plan a trip to the town of Buñol in Valencia at the end of August to attend La Tomatina.
This wild and one-of-a-kind festival sees tens of thousands of people throwing tomatoes at each other, turning the town into one big pile of red pulp.
If you’d rather something a little less messy, consider going to Seville two weeks after the Semana Santa (Easter Holy Week).
This is when the city hosts the Feria de Abril, a week-long celebration featuring lots of dancing, drinking and eating interspersed with fireworks, traditional horse riding and bullfighting.

Peace and quiet
Crowds not your thing? Then January – February is probably the best time for you to visit Spain.
Seeing as it’s off-season, you won’t find throngs of tourists invading some of the most popular destinations like Granada, Seville and Barcelona.
That means less queuing and an overall more authentically Spanish experience.
Unless you go to the Canary Islands, you probably won’t be able to do any sunbathing in January and February.
But the weather in southern Spain is fairly dry and manageable at this time of year, making it the perfect place to visit for a winter break.

The best time to visit Spain: A month-by-month guide
January
If you hate crowds, don’t mind iffy weather and would rather not spend lots of money, January is a fine time to visit Spain.
Since it’s outside of peak tourist season, you’ll likely get more bang for your buck no matter which region you go to, as hotel room rates and restaurant prices go down across the country after the Christmas holiday.
There’s also a handful of festive events going on at this time of year, including Three Kings Day (Dia de los Reyes) on the 6th.
This holiday, which is also known as Epiphany, is Spain’s version of Christmas day, with many families opening their gifts then rather than on 25 December.
Many cities around Spain including Madrid and Barcelona also host a boisterous Three Kings Festival, with people parading through the streets on the evening of the 5th and well into the next day,
Members of the local council will march through the city, throwing sweets into the crowds for children and adults to catch.
Despite the lack of beach weather, January is a merry – and relatively tourist-free – time to visit Spain.

February
The weather in Spain in February is much like it is in January – some degree of chilly.
Even in Andalucia, the highest temperature is about 60° F (16° C), and evenings can get down to the 40°s F.
That being said, there are plenty of good reasons to visit Spain in February, including some lively carnival parties in Cadiz, Madrid, and the Canary Islands to celebrate the beginning of Lent.
And if you’re into your music, plan a February trip to the city of Jerez, which hosts a massive two-week-long flamenco festival every year starting in February and finishing in early March.
March
While the evenings are still cool in March, this is the month when things begin to warm up in Spain.
The sea may not be quite warm enough to swim in – even the Mediterranean – but walking on the beach should be pleasant around this time of year.
Plus, there are lots of cultural events and festivals to experience in March, including Valencia’s unique Las Fallas festival in mid-March.
During this riotous week, the city is -quite literally – set ablaze with fireworks, gunpowder and bonfires, while live music and a healthy dose of satire give the festival a fun and humorous touch.
The main event sees hundreds of ninots (dolls made from papier-mache, wood or cardboard) set alight in a mass fire called La Cremà (the burning).
Keen to get stuck into the real-life culture and traditions of Spain? Then you could do much worse than Spain – and Valencia in particular – in March.

April
In our experience, April is one of the best months to visit Spain, for numerous reasons.
By April, the majority of mainland Spain’s most popular beach towns – Marbella, Alicante, Malaga – are warm enough to do some sunbathing.
And things tend to be pretty sunny and dry in the Balearic Islands as well, with Ibiza, Mallorca and Menorca ushering in the springtime.
Seville’s Feria de Abril is enough of a reason to travel to Andalucia in April, as the city comes to life with traditional flamenco music and dancing.
Meanwhile, at the end of April, the town of Trujillo in Spain’s Extremadura region hosts the Feria del Queso – a three-day-long festival celebrating all things cheese.
If you consider yourself a foodie – or a cheese fan, in particular – you’ll be blown away by the sheer number of cheese varieties available to sample.

May
In terms of weather, May is yet another gorgeous month to visit Spain, with temps on the rise and the sun shining more and more.
Clear, sunny skies and warm days are the norm by now in Barcelona, with average temperatures reaching about 20°C (68°F).
It also roughly marks the beginning of bullfighting season in Spain, a centuries-old tradition that’s either thrilling or horrifying, depending on your personal standpoint.
If bullfighting isn’t your idea of a good time, there’s plenty of other activities going on in May, including the Primavera Sound Festival in Barcelona, the San Isidro Festival in Madrid, and the WOMAD World Music Festival in Caceres.
Plus, since the official summer holiday hasn’t begun yet, most destinations are less busy in May than they are in June, July and August.

June
Now that many schools have broken up for the summer holidays, expect flights, hotels and food in Spain to be pricier than before.
However, it’s worth spending a bit more to take advantage of the sheer variety of fun things going on – not to mention the sublime weather you’ll experience across the country.
By June, Madrid will already be pretty hot and dry. If you’re visiting the capital then, consider making air conditioning a priority when looking for accommodation.
And if you’re considering visiting Spain to do some surfing or kite-surfing, now is a fantastic time to go to Tarifa – one of the most popular destinations in the world for wind sports.
You’ll enjoy balmy days, cool evenings, and the city’s laid-back surfer lifestyle, before the masses of late-summer visitors pile in.

July
July is the absolute busiest month for most Spanish destinations, which makes it both a good and a bad time to visit.
On the plus side, all the restaurants, bars and hotels will be open and fully functioning, and you can expect a lively, fun-filled atmosphere across the country.
But visiting Spain in the high season also means you’ll probably have to spend more on hotel rooms, and you can expect to hear lots of English wherever you go.
In any case, if you do decide to visit Spain in July, you’ll definitely need to book your accommodation well in advance, before hotels fill up completely.
August
At the height of summer, some of Spain’s most popular destinations are simply too hot to visit (Malaga, Granada and Seville – we’re looking at you!)
Instead, head north to Galicia, Asturias and the Basque country, where the weather is pleasant (in the high-teens to mid-twenties Celsius) without being unbearable.
August is the perfect time to go on a road trip through northern Spain, sampling all the delicious pintxos you can manage along the way.
For a unique cultural experience, time your trip to coincide with the Semana Grande, which takes place in Bilbao and San Sebastian every August.
During this festival, you can expect to see traditional Basque sports, giant puppet dances, and a spectacular fireworks competition lighting up the night sky every evening.

September
With temps beginning to cool down again in September, Spain’s fiery summer destinations like Madrid and Cordoba are no longer too hot to handle.
Now’s your chance to take advantage of those amazing cities without feeling like your face is about to melt off!
September is also a great time to sample some of Spain’s finest wines during the harvest season.
If you love wine or simply want to immerse yourself in the country’s wine culture, book a trip to Logroño, Spain – the capital of the La Rioja region – in the third week of September.
This is when the San Mateo festival takes place – a week of celebrating the local wine harvest with music, festivities, and lots of drinking.
A highlight of this event is the crushing of the grapes, during which you’re invited to squish Rioja grapes with your own feet.
Noradoa/Shutterstock.com
October
Summer is well and truly over by October, which means we’re back in shoulder season.
This is a lovely time to visit Andalucia, seeing as the weather is mild, the cities are a bit quieter, and the beaches are still relatively sunny.
You can even still sneak in some sunbathing if you head to Mallorca, where the temps are still in the mid-Twenties Celsius.
Sporty types might want to head to northern Spain in October, which marks the beginning of surf season.
Just make sure you wear a wetsuit!
If, on the other hand, you want to embrace the autumnal beauty of Spain, there are quite a few places to spot some stunning fall foliage.
One highlight is Irati Forest, situated on the northeastern border with France, which boasts some particularly vibrant hues around this time of year.
GeoJGomez/Shutterstock.com
November
With its slow pace and refreshingly crisp weather, November is a fine time to go for a road trip around Andalucia, perhaps visiting some of the famous Pueblos Blancos (White Villages) in the hills.
While you’re down there, make some time to visit Ronda, which Ernest Hemingway described as ‘the most romantic town in Spain’ and which animated film fans will recognise from 2017’s Ferdinand.
You can also stop by the nearby Jerez, where they host the International Sherry Festival every November.
Fancy more of a city break than a full-blown holiday? Then book a trip to Madrid to see the autumn colours in El Retiro Park and witness the international Jazz Festival.

December
With Christmas on the horizon and festive spirits at an all-time high, December in Spain is almost as lively and exciting as summer.
Plus, thanks to the country’s size and variety of climate, you can have any type of holiday you want in December – from ski trips to beach breaks, and everything in-between.
To get into the holiday spirit, head to Barcelona or Seville, where you’ll find some the most delightful Christmas markets in Europe.
Pay a visit to the city of Malaga and you’ll see a seriously impressive display of fairy lights on the main street, which draws thousands of spectators to the city centre every evening in December to watch it become illuminated.
Rjc9666/Shutterstock.com
Meanwhile, December marks the beginning of ski season in Granada, with the snow-capped Sierra Nevada opening up to skiers and snowboarders alike.
And historic Zaragoza in northeast Spain is a great place to stay while visiting the nearby ski resorts in the Pyrenees.
If you’ve got a hankering for winter sun, book a trip to Gran Canaria, where the average December temperature hovers around the low 70s° F.
And wherever you decide to go, be prepared to take part in some Spanish New Year’s Eve traditions, including eating 12 grapes at the stroke of midnight.

Spain in February: Travel Tips, Weather & More
Weather
Spain’s northern Atlantic coast and regions like BasqueCountry are typically the first to receive cold-weather fronts and storms. If you visit the north, expect averages to be in the 50s/40s (Fahrenheit) and pack for rain. Those arriving in Madrid and traveling around central Spain can expect slightly higher averages (but still hovering in the 50s) and much less precipitation due to the region’s location on the Meseta Central (central Iberian plateau).
If you’re going to Spain to beat miserable winter weather back home, then the Mediterranean coast and the southern region of Andalusia is where you want to go. There isn’t so much rain in February (averages between one and two inches), and temps often hit the low 60s. No surprise that you’ll find the absolute warmest weather throughout the year in the far south of Spain, as the winter is much milder in places like Extremadura and southern Andalusia, where highs are often in the mid-60s (18°C).
Crowds & Costs
Like January, the tourists, holidaymakers, nomadic revelers, and backpackers have mostly left the country due to the often inclement weather. Also disappearing this month are the high prices on hotels and flights that define the summer tourist season. Spain is an economy driven by tourism, with nearly 100 million visitors descending on the country yearly. Many come for sunny weather, and absent that, prices drop as hotels in hotspots like Barcelona, Mallorca, Cordoba, Murcia, Madrid, Seville, San Sebastián, and others compete for the few travelers that are visiting during this time.
Where to Go
If you’re interested in finding a locale with the best weather, southern Andalusia is where you want to go. Not only can you enjoy some sun, but you could also make a side trip to Gibraltar and lay eyes on the famous rock.
The entire Mediterranean coast gets less gloomy weather than the north. You could plan a road trip from Andalusia to Valencia and up to Barcelona and likely would enjoy the sun the majority of the time. Plus, that coastal drive along postcard-perfect beach towns and cities like Cádiz, Marbella, Cartagena, and Alicante is incredible any time of the year. Madrid is also a good option for a winter vacation, especially if you’re arriving in that city and flying out of it. While Madrid also sees less rain, the nightly desert winds can offer up quite the chill, so pack accordingly.

Get Started
What to Do
If you do visit Andalusia, you’ll most certainly want to partake of the tapas culture; pull up a seat at a bar, café, or bodega, and the proprietor will serve you up some complimentary “small plates” so long as you’re washing the food down with a beer, wine, or a spirit.
Conversely, you could head to Basque Country and San Sebastián for pintxos (pronounced peenchos) culture. There’s an abundance of restaurants in San Sebastián’s historic center and elsewhere that display seemingly endless trays of gourmet pintxos along the bar, just waiting for hungry locals and tourists alike to come and sample the delicacies.
If you have the time to travel throughout Spain, you should use this less-crowded month to visit the most famous museums in the country. These include the Prado in Madrid, the Picasso Museum in Málaga, MACBA (Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona), and the Guggenheim in Bilbao, located in a stunning 20th-century modern masterwork building by Frank Gehry.
Events in February
Day of Andalusia. This public holiday falls every year on the last day of February as Andalusians celebrate the 1980 referendum that granted this region autonomy. Schools and businesses are closed, and there are festivities, live music, and the singing of the region’s anthem, Himno de Andalucía (Hymn of Andalusia). The biggest celebrations are in places like Málaga, Granada, and Seville.

Spain: Climate & Weather
The climate is subject to various influences depending on the region: It is an oceanic climate on the Atlantic coast which provides warm temperatures and a rainy autumn.
In the centre, there is a continental climate with different seasons, rather harsh winters and occasionally stifling summers.
The southern part enjoys a Mediterranean climate with well-differentiated seasons and short inter-seasonal showers, temperate winters and hot summers.
Like most of the Mediterranean countries, the best time to discover the country is between May and June or September and October which allows you to enjoy comfortable temperatures while avoiding the influx of tourists in the middle of summer.

Throughout February, the weather in Spain never ceases to amaze with unexpected weather changes, from snow to warm weather, from sun to showers. During warming, the thermometer rises to +20 degrees, and the snow does not linger for a long time.
Based on the number of tourists at the end of winter in the cities of Spain, we can safely say that many people like such capricious weather. The main rule during this period is to provide yourself with universal windproof clothing and warm shoes. It is worth taking an umbrella or a raincoat for a long walk, even if the sun is shining brightly outside the window. The main goal of most tourists in February is excursions and immersion in the bright rich world of Spanish culinary excellence with dozens of spices and aromas. February is also good with low prices for accommodation and clothes. For budget travel during this period, many opportunities open up that are not available in summer.
By the end of winter, a much larger number of tourists begin to arrive in the country. There are more sunny days, and the temperature rises slightly. This is the weather forecast for travelers who decide to visit Spain in February: the south of the country is already in the arms of spring warmth, the ambient temperature ranges from +16 to +18 degrees, in the central regions it is cooler, +10 … +12 degrees of heat, in the northeast The air of the Iberian Peninsula warms up to +13 degrees Celsius.
At the end of winter, the water temperature in coastal areas will not please beach lovers, depending on the region, the sea warms up to +12…+17 degrees. Even if the daredevil decides to swim somewhere on the south coast, it will be cold to get out of the water. The sea is slightly warmer off the coast of the Canary Islands, but even at a maximum temperature of +19degrees, it is difficult to call such conditions comfortable.
The vagaries of the weather do nothing to diminish the popularity of the colorful carnivals that take place in many Spanish cities in February. The tradition of organizing carnival processions and performances passed to the Spaniards from the Italians back in the 17th century. The locals liked to organize street processions so much that in our time, the carnivals of Spain are slightly inferior only to the Brazilian carnivals, which also take place in February.
One of the most popular themes of Spanish carnivals was the “burial of the sardine”, a real funeral procession carrying a sarcophagus with a sardine buried in it. Despite the fact that different cities have their own characteristics of carnivals, all festive processions are characterized by undressed carts participating in processions and bright costumes of participants who, long before the carnival, begin to sew their own costumes, paying special attention to themes and regional cultural characteristics.
By the end of the month, traveling around Spain, especially along the Mediterranean coast, can be a real pleasure. Tourists are less dependent on sudden cold snaps, prolonged rains and strong winds.

Reviews of tourists about the weather in Spain in February
As if I were not in Malaga, but in Sochi. The weather in February is very similar, there is no more rain, the temperature rises to + 15, but sometimes at night it can be about + 3-5 degrees. Rare are the days when there are clouds in the sky and cover the sun. Walking around the city is a pleasure, of course the sea is still cold and does not warm up above +15. But for walks in a warm city, February is ideal. As I told my wife, why fly so far when you can be in Sochi in 2 hours. In general, a great option from winter Moscow to get to +15
I wasn’t looking for a beach holiday, I just wanted warmth and tranquility. Las Palmas gave me what I expected. The main thing is that there was no rain. Yes, often there were clouds in the sky and the sun was hiding, but the temperature for 10 days did not fall below +15, the water is certainly cold and not the season for swimming, maybe +16 is normal for someone, but not for me for sure. There was no wind, even though they scared me. I consider the rest successful, perhaps I will only write down excessive cloudiness as a minus, otherwise I was lucky with the weather!
The trip to Valencia turned out to be unplanned, but I don’t regret it at all. I’ve been here for 8 days and I don’t want to return to Moscow. Yes, the weather is not very warm, only +13-14 degrees, but the sun is shining all the time and there is no rain. It’s a thrill, you can safely walk around the city and enjoy the sights, but I would take a leather jacket, the winds are decent, especially if you are not far from the sea. And it’s cold at night, about +3, so you can’t do without warm clothes. Of course, you can’t swim in the sea (unless you are a walrus), the water is only +12. If you need a beach holiday in February, then Valencia is clearly not the right place, but walking around the city and the promenade in plus 13 is the most important thing, the main thing is that there is no rain.

Weather in Spain in February
Winter in Spain is very mild. Only in the hills and northern regions does it vaguely resemble the Russian one. Throughout the rest of the continent, as a rule, it is associated with mid-autumn in the middle latitudes, and on the island part – from the second half of spring. The country owes such climatic “distortions” to its vast area and diverse landscape. If we consider February specifically, then it should be said that the weather forecast differs from the January one by an increase of a couple of degrees of average daily temperatures and a slight decrease in precipitation. However, due to the repeated change in the mood of the “heavenly office”, this “increase” is completely invisible: today – a clear sun, and tomorrow – rains and chilly winds. Therefore, when packing your bags, be sure to make sure that there is a sufficient amount of clothing suitable for both dry and wet days. And at the same time, keep in mind that this month is dominated by overcast. The lowest thermometer readings are recorded in ski resorts, which acquired a stable snow cover at the end of December. Most of them are concentrated in the Pyrenees, located in the north-east of Spain. During the day, it fixes about +1°C ..-3°C (depending on the elevation difference), and at night it is 3-5 degrees lower. There are also ski centers in the Sierra Nevada. Its stations are considered the southernmost in Europe. It is not surprising that during the daytime the air here warms up to relatively high plus marks – + 4 ° C.
After sunset, it cools down to -6°C. In one of the largest regions of Castile y León, in the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula, at noon it is about + 9 ° C, and as twilight thickens, slight frosts should be expected. Cloudy prevails in the capital, the sun pleases with its presence only occasionally. In this city, as in no other, the difference between day and night temperatures is especially noticeable: +2..+12°C. At the same time, a deviation from climatic norms, leading to snowfalls, is not excluded in Madrid. Fortunately, such anomalies stop very quickly. Much warmer in La Coruña and Barcelona: from +6..+7°C to +14°C. True, they are quite “wet”: about 11-14 days are marked by precipitation. The sunniest and driest region in the third winter month is the Valencia region, which has reliable protection in the west from the penetration of rain cyclones in the form of high hills. For example, on the Costa Blanca, weather forecasters count for two whole weeks, while only 4-5 days are “spoiled” by showers. As for the temperature regime, it is approximately the same as in all the southern provinces: at noon – up to + 17 ° C, and at nightfall – + 7 ° C. The title of the warmest place in mainland Spain rightfully belongs to the Costa del Sol: during the day it is + 18 ° C, and at night – at least + 10 ° C. So, in principle, winter things will be superfluous here. The Spanish islands deserve a separate line. In February, the Canaries are a spring oasis with lush blossoming nature, ripening exotic fruits and daytime temperatures of +20..+21°C.
What to do in Spain in February?
Hospitable Spain welcomes tourists at any time of the year. This is a year-round destination, so you can always count on a great vacation here. If in summer the emphasis is on amazing beaches randomly scattered across the mainland and archipelagos, then in winter ski centers come to the fore, which, thanks to their democratic prices, are never left without attention. The absence of crowds of tourists, which is the main characteristic of the low season, guarantees free access to popular attractions. But the capricious nature of the weather requires inquisitive travelers the ability to flexibly change their plans, quickly switching from outdoor activities to visits to indoor museums and galleries.
Beach holidays
In February, Spain does not indulge beachgoers. If she still gives a few sunny days conducive to sunbathing, then it is pointless to count on swimming for your own pleasure. The water is still cold, and dipping in it is fraught with a cold. In order not to be unfounded, here is a detailed synoptic report for you: the water temperature of the Mediterranean Sea on the Costa Brava and off the southernmost coast of Catalonia, the Costa Dorada, is only + 13 ° C, near the Costa Blanca – + 14 ° C, and coast of the Costa del Sol – a degree higher.
There is little hope for short swims in the Canary Islands, just 1. 5 kilometers southwest of Africa. The temperature mark of the water in the Atlantic Ocean is kept at an average of + 19 ° C, with the exception of Lanzarote and Fuertoventura with + 18 ° C, where storms often occur. At the same time, the chances for such activities increase in their southern resorts, where locals sunbathe with might and main, master surfing and wear quite summer clothes. In the north, piercing winds blow and it rains quite often. Regarding Balearic, there is no point in going there: it is humid and the water is only +14°C.
Ski holidays
Still, in February, vouchers for ski resorts are in greater demand than for beach ones. At this time, they are experiencing an impressive influx of adherents of skiing. Here they are waiting for several mountain systems: the Sierra Nevada, the Pyrenees, the Cantabrian Cordillera and the Iberian mountains. They attract both beginners who are just getting on the “ski” and professionals who come here to improve their skills.
Among the undeniable advantages of the Spanish “skiing” are the excellent quality of the slopes, the superbly developed infrastructure, worthy of après-ski, high-level hotels and a lot of cultural monuments in the area. Staying in La Pinilla, you can easily visit the capital, and from the Sierra Nevada it is convenient to get to Granada. Biker-Beret allows you to join “the cream of society.” There are often members of the Royal family. In addition to skiing, Formigal invites you to soak up the spas, visit the wild animal park and attend tastings at local wineries.
Entertainment and excursions
What else do February tours to Spain offer? Of course, wide excursion possibilities, which are actually endless. They introduce the rich cultural heritage of the country, its centuries-old history and the unique architectural appearance of cities, each of which is beautiful in its own way. We advise you to dedicate fine days to walking tours. There are still few visitors, so this is a unique chance to experience the real magic of Spain, devoid of artificial embellishments.
Once in Madrid, be sure to visit the Prado Museum of Paintings and Sculptures and wander around the Palace of Catalan Music. In Barcelona, breathe in the scents of cherry blossom trees, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the Gothic quarter and admire the Sagrada Familia. In Valencia, admire the romantic squares and exquisite palaces. And once in the Canary Islands, taste vegetables and fruits from local plantations and have plenty of fun in well-functioning water parks. If it suddenly starts to rain, tune in to explore gastronomic routes that help you master the intricacies of national cuisine.
Holidays and festivals
A trip in February can significantly enrich your impressions, since this is the time of the hot carnival season. Its exact dates depend on the date of Easter, since it precedes the beginning of Lent. This is a time of unbridled fun, colorful processions, costumed parades, loud music and confetti. In general, the imagination of the participants of Spanish carnivals knows no bounds. The largest number of spectators gather in such cities as Sitges, Alicante, Tarragona, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Murcia, Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Cadiz.
On February 12, in Barcelona, the memory of the heavenly patroness Eulalia is honored, in whose honor they arrange the holiday “Las fiestas de Santa Eulalia”. Seville hosts a traditional restaurant week, while Valencia organizes tapas tastings.
What are the prices for holidays in Spain in February?
In February, you can save a lot on the low season: minus 30-50% of the summer cost of tours. True, at ski resorts it has nothing to do with reality. There is no drop in tariffs for ski passes yet. Also, increased prices are observed in regions hosting carnivals.

Barcelona in February, holidays and weather in Barcelona (Spain)
Sunny and smiling Barcelona is still in the grip of winter, which is periodically reminded of a cool wind or cold drizzle. The streets are a little empty, because the winter holidays are behind us. However, if you come here in February, you will still be able to enjoy the stunning atmosphere of the city with its magical architecture and centuries-old history and breathe in the salty smell of the Mediterranean Sea.
Holidays in Barcelona in February: the advantages and disadvantages of the trip
The capital of Catalonia in February is quite capricious about the weather: sometimes it looks like a warm spring, and sometimes – a cool autumn. But most of the reviews about holidays in Barcelona in February are wonderful: this city is always beautiful. Even a trip not in the warmest season has its advantages . What are they?
Lots of sunny days. Any walk is more pleasant, and the world around is more beautiful if the sun is shining outside. Although Barcelona cannot be spoiled even on a cloudy and rainy day.
Absence of frost and snow. Few people remember that in winter the air temperature here was below zero. And snow usually, if it falls, does not reach the ground – it still melts in the air.
No influx of tourists. The period of active winter recreation is over, and the lines to the sights are gradually decreasing, so a relaxing holiday is almost guaranteed.
Winter sales. But sales here are usually delayed until the very spring, and the percentage of discounts is growing by this time. Therefore, profitable shopping is added to a useful rest.
Carnival. The real one! If you want to see this elegant, fun, enchanting action, then plan a trip in the second half of the month.
Barcelona in February has a number of features that you should know about in order to adjust your plans if possible. So what are the disadvantages of the February trip?
The weather at this time is changeable. For two or three days the daytime temperature can vary from +19°C to +5°C. If you are not a big fan of such drastic changes or are planning a trip with a baby, use the short-term forecast, stock up on warm clothes, or postpone the trip for a month or two, when the heat is more constant.
There is a periodic influx of tourists in the city. Taking into account the festive events and events of the cultural life of the city, for some time its population increases by several thousand. If you were planning a relaxing holiday, take a look at the calendar to adjust the travel time.
Weather in Barcelona in February
The weather in February-March is quite capricious, and February still holds the leading position in terms of surprises. The air temperature can change not only within a week, but also by 3 – 5 degrees within one day: in the morning the sun, clouds gather in the afternoon and it gets colder.
Therefore, you will hardly need a down jacket, but a warm autumn jacket and a scarf will be just right. Although with exactly the same success you can catch a temperature of +20 ° C, when the jacket has to be removed completely.
So, the weather in early February is mostly sunny, after sunset the humidity rises and it gets colder. Night temperatures are relatively low – on average +3°C – +8°C.
The temperature in Barcelona in mid-February is between +10°C and +18°C, the night time remains almost unchanged. Although it happens that for several days the daily readings drop to +6°C.
The weather in Barcelona at the end of February is more persistently warm, but there have been occasions when it has snowed. True, he did not lie on the ground, but the air became rather cool. However, this is more the exception than the rule.
Air and water temperature
The Mediterranean climate ensures mild warm winters in Barcelona. There are winds and light rains, but bad weather does not linger here for long and gives way to sunny and dry days. The average temperature in Barcelona in February is about 10°C above zero.
The air temperature in Barcelona in February is
The average daily temperature is +14°C, sometimes due to cool winds it can be felt lower. Average night stays around +5°C. Minus and zero temperatures in winter are almost always absent here.
Sea water temperature in Barcelona in February
The sea in Barcelona at this time is not warm: the water temperature here is +13°C. Therefore, you have to wait for the beach season, leaving your swimsuit at home and enjoying leisurely walks along the coast or a picnic on the sand on a sunny warm day.
Precipitation
February is a fairly dry month with about 36 mm of precipitation. There are few rainy days, respectively: from 3 to 5. In the mornings and after sunset, there is high humidity, and the rains are mostly drizzling and shallow.
Sunny, cloudy and cloudy days
The number of sunny days in February is from 15 to 19, cloudy days are 2-4, the rest of the time cloudiness can be replaced by sun or light rain. Given these facts, you can easily choose the time for a walk along the seashore and for sightseeing in the city.
Excursion rest: where to walk and what to see
The sights of Barcelona are beautiful in any season and in any weather, but if you choose a warm sunny day to explore them, you will get a lot of pleasant unforgettable impressions. It seems that everything in this city was created in order to please, surprise and delight.
The centuries-old history of Barcelona is kept by the streets and walls of buildings. To get in touch with it, go on an excursion to the Gothic Quarter, especially since even in early February you can choose a suitable day for a walk.
Many of the buildings here were built in the 14th – 15th century, but next to them there are many cozy restaurants, expensive shops and even nightclubs. The quarter consists of many intertwined narrow streets.
The majestic Cathedral of the Holy Cross is considered the central building of the Gothic Quarter – its highest spire is 93 meters high, and the length of the facade is about 40 meters.
Stroll through St. James’s Square and go to see the Bridge of Sighs or the “Lace Bridge”, the hallmark of the Gothic Quarter.
For many tourists, the main attraction of Catalonia is not even the Sagrada Familia, but Camp Nou, the home stadium of the Spanish football club Barcelona. Around mid-February, you can get to the club’s game and see this celebration with your own eyes. And you should definitely visit the muse of the legendary team. It occupies 3.5 thousand square meters. meters.
You will see an interactive screen displaying information about the history of Barca and you will be able to choose the section of interest on it. You will also see the team’s trophy collection, maradona’s jersey, Koeman’s boots and Messi’s Golden Boot. And if a young football fan is traveling with you, this excursion will be an unforgettable gift for him.
Perhaps this city hasn’t surprised you enough yet? Then you should definitely visit the Museum of Unusual Inventions if you suddenly have an overcast rainy day at the end of February. It is unlikely that you have ever seen a genius pillow on which to write, or a form for boiling square hard-boiled eggs.
Barcelona Kids & Family Fun Collection
Or maybe you have seen a water filter somewhere through which you can drink water even from a puddle or an anti-theft beach bag? Not? Then welcome to the MIBA Museum! There is also a special workshop here, where especially gifted natures, inspired, can also invent something. Be sure to visit here with your child – who knows, maybe your little genius is growing up.
Tip: Get one of the many Barcelona Travel Cards that will help you save a lot on travel and sightseeing costs. Read more about all types of tourist discount cards in our separate article on this topic.
Holidays, events and festivals
Holidays in Barcelona in February delight with bright colors, fun and … pyramids of people! The capital of Catalonia never ceases to amaze and amuse its visitors. If you want to join the fun and noisy carnival crowd, plan your trip around the holidays.
In the first half of February (dates change slightly) the feast of St. Eulalia is celebrated, organized in honor of the patroness of the city. For five whole days there are concerts and festive processions in the city, you can see fiery fireworks, fireworks and amazing towers of people – Castellers, and all this is accompanied by songs and dances of the participants.
During this holiday, many museums and architectural structures can be visited completely free of charge.
And one more very important event – City Carnival in Barcelona. Its dates change from year to year and depend on the date of Easter: it can take place both at the beginning of the month and at the end and lasts a whole week.
It is held before Lent and is accompanied by cheerful folk dances, costume processions and various competitions. So, on “Fat Thursday” seven “kings” come to the city, each of which represents his “village”.
On this day there is a competition in cooking and eating traditional Catalan dishes. On Sunday, local residents and guests of the capital are waiting for the “orange battle”, and on the last day – “The funeral of the sardine”. At the end of all the festivities, the figure of the Carnival King is burned at the stake, which personifies all the bad things that happened during the year.
Shopping
A characteristic feature of the winter sales in Barcelona is that they last almost until April. So, having arrived here in February, you will find yourself in a very active period of winter discounts, especially since, compared to, say, December, they have already grown and range from 50 to 70%.
Shopping centers are waiting for visitors every day except Sundays and offer not only clothing and accessories stores, but also a lot of entertainment and delicious food. In addition to shopping centers in Barcelona, there are several shopping streets with shops for every taste: both budget folk brands and expensive brands.

Do not forget about outlets: they are located half an hour from the city, they are small trading villages and delight visitors with year-round discounts of up to 70% on clothes of famous brands.
Prices for holidays
Tourist activity in February is reduced – the off-season is not a particularly popular time for travel. Therefore, prices in Barcelona in February become a little lower. So you have every chance to arrange a budget holiday in the amazing capital of Catalonia.
Flight
In February, airlines reduce their prices compared to the hype in Barcelona in January. Tickets can be purchased at prices 15 – 20% lower than in the previous month. And if you order them a few months before the trip, you can save a lot.
Tours
Tour operators and hotels also allow you to purchase tours in February 20% cheaper. And at this time there is always the opportunity to book a hotel you like, without fear that there are no more places in it, or choose a room with a view you like. Needless to say, booking a tour in advance will help save a good amount?
The best hotels in Barcelona for children
Food
Prices for food do not depend much on the season and increase only due to the increase in prices in the state. If you want to feel the atmosphere of Catalonia, arrange an original breakfast for yourself. Get up early and head to the local market.
Spanish cuisine for children: what to try?
Spanish fruit
Sliced jamon costs from 1 euro, and a kilogram – from 70. Catalan sausages – from 6 to 18 euros per kilo. Fruit slices are not cheap – about 2 euros per glass. You can have breakfast here, in a small cafe, where the food will cost you 5 euros.
Recommendations for families with children
Barcelona is very hospitable and always looking forward to welcoming you. Even taking into account the vagaries of the weather, you can take your baby on a trip, most importantly, take warm clothes with you. There are quite a few sunny days in February, so you can easily choose the time to walk along the alleys and boulevards of the city.
But for walking along the beach with a baby, it is better to choose a warmer season, after all, the February sea wind is not the best companion for a child in a stroller.
For older children, February is a good time to travel. You can choose a carnival week and introduce the child to local traditions, or vice versa, organize a trip when there are no noisy celebrations and devote it to excursions and walks around the city.

Lo mejor de Corralejo
Sin duda este parque natural alberga el 100% del encanto de Corralejo. A una distancia de 5 minutos en coche de Corralejo, esta playa se caracteriza por su arena fina y por la inmensidad de la misma. Son kilómetros de playa. Es cierto que suele hacer viento, pero no es desagradable

Imprescindible visita en Fuerteventura
Para mí, el paraje más sorprendente en una isla que destaca por sus playas, con un paisaje semi desértico, exótico al mismo tiempo. Las dunas del Parque Natural son una estampa que llama la atención. Merece la pena el paseo entre las dunas y luego un buen baño en la playa. Eso sí, vete a las de más al sur, porque hacia el norte empieza el fantasma de los hoteles y están ya con cierta masificación y familias. ¡¡Y hasta te puedes encontrar cabras pastando de la poca hierba entre la arena!!

Los 3 Espacios Naturales en Fuerteventura más importantes
Son varios los espacios naturales en Fuerteventura ya que la isla es un paraíso natural de aguas esmeraldas y arena blanca que se entremezclan bosques, piscinas naturales , o dunas de arena, que harán las delicias de los más aventureros y amantes de la naturaleza. Con sus más de 150 kilómetros de playas y sus espectaculares paisajes volcánicos, esta isla es considerada uno de los ecosistemas más valiosos del mundo, además fue declarada en 2009 como Reserva de la Biosfera por la UNESCO. Cuenta con cuatro Parques Nacionales y siete Reservas de la Biosfera que ofrecen cientos de oportunidades para ser contemplados, ya sea en excursiones programadas, realizando senderismo o simplemente dejándote llevar por sus hermosos paisajes.
Son muchas las maneras de disfrutar de los espacios naturales de Fuerteventura. Si contamos con pocos días para visitar la isla y tenemos la intención de ver y disfrutar al máximo de ella y sus parajes naturales, lo más recomendable es alquilar un coche barato para conocer Fuerteventura, pudiendo de este modo desplazarte sin restricciones y de manera rápida y cómoda. Dada la existencia de varias agencias de alquiler de coche en Fuerteventura, la utilización de páginas como Liligo se hacen indispensables en estos casos. Esta web busca y compara precios para que elijas la opción más adecuada, pero no alquila directamente.
A continuación haremos un recorrido de los espacios naturales que visitar en Fuerteventura y que no os podéis perder.
Parque Natural Islote de Lobos
El Parque Natural Islote de Lobos es una pequeña isla que se encuentra situada a solo 2 kilómetros de Fuerteventura, a ella podréis acceder tomando un ferry desde el pueblo de Corralejo por unos 20 euros por persona.
Con unos 6 kilómetros cuadrados, esta paradisíaca isla pertenece al Parque Natural de las Dunas que, gracias a la magnificencia de sus fondos marinos y la existencia de cerca de 130 especies vegetales distintas, ha sido declarado área de reserva submarina.
Como curiosidad os diré que el islote recibe su nombre de los lobos marinos que vivían hasta hacía poco en sus costas, y que desgraciadamente se encuentran en estos momentos en peligro de extinción. Actualmente, está declarada zona de protección de aves.
El islote de lobos no cuenta con ninguna carretera, lo que permite la práctica de senderismo entre paisajes de gran belleza. Sus playas son mayoritariamente vírgenes, lo que hace las delicias de los visitantes, que pueden disfrutar de preciosas playas de aguas cristalinas y arena blanca. De entre todas sus playas podríamos destacar la Playa de La Concha y Playa El Puertito. Si buscáis seguro que seréis capaces de encontrar una íntima cala llamada La Calera.
De entre todo lo que puede ofrecer este espacio natural también podríamos destacar que sus aguas son perfectas para la práctica de snorkel y surf. Además uno de los secretos que alberga es que en su territorio se han hallado algunos yacimientos paleontológicos de los períodos Jandiense y Erbanense.
Espacio Natural en Fuerteventura de las Dunas de Corralejo
Este espacio natural que visitar en Fuerteventura posee más de 2600 hectáreas conformadas por extensas dunas de arena blanca bañadas por las aguas cristalinas procedentes del océano Atlántico. Es el lugar ideal para apreciar la belleza desértica de la isla de Fuerteventura y disfrutar de una tranquilidad inigualable. Situada a 5 kilómetros de Corralejo, esta zona fue nombrada Parque Protegido en 1994 y forma parte, actualmente, del Parque Natural de las Dunas. Este espacio natural constituye un hábitat para numerosas especies endémicas que se encuentran protegidas y amenazadas así como un paisaje de gran valor científico.
Además, bajo estas dunas, se localizan los llamados «malpaís», es decir, acumulaciones de roca volcánica con filos y bordes cortantes. Al sur de Corralejo es posible observar un paisaje completamente distinto, donde destacan los colores ocres y rojos así como un paraje volcánico. En esta zona se tiene la oportunidad de ascender los 300 metros del volcán Montaña Roja para poder contemplar desde las alturas las islas de Lanzarote y La Graciosa.
Si el lugar de hospedaje está situado a bastante distancia de este Parque Natural, una buena opción es alquilar un coche en Fuerteventura y desplazarse hasta aquí para mayor comodidad. ¡Ojo!, no está permitido transitar con el coche, por lo que se deberá dejar en un apartadero y entrar caminando al parque.
Monumento Natural de Montaña Tindaya
Situada al noroeste de la isla, muy cerca del municipio de La Oliva, esta montaña pertenece, al igual que los anteriores lugares, al Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corralejo. Se alza solitaria casi 400 metros del suelo, rodeada por un paisaje agreste y árido, muy propio de la isla de Fuerteventura.
A la Montaña Tindaya se le atribuyó numerosas propiedades mágicas por parte de los antiguos aborígenes, que consideraban a esta como sagrada. Así lo atestiguan las diversas manifestaciones culturales que se han encontrado en ella: utensilios domésticos, algunas construcciones funerarias y cerca de 300 grabados con formas de pie de gran valor arqueológico. De hecho, la Montaña Tindaya cuenta con uno de los principales yacimientos de manifestación rupestre de toda la isla.
La montaña ha sido reconocida como Monumento Natural y Punto de Interés Geológico por la Administración canaria por lo que es uno de los más importantes espacios naturales que visitar en Fuerteventura.
Tindaya es visible desde cualquier punto de la isla, reconocible por su peculiar forma y belleza paisajística. En uno de los lados de la montaña puede encontrarse un pequeño sendero destinado a los visitantes que quieran adentrarse y apreciar la belleza de su paraje, impregnado de tranquilidad. En el entorno es posible encontrar también una obra de uno de los escultores más importantes de la época, Eduardo Chillida, convirtiendo a la Montaña Tindaya en todo un símbolo de Fuerteventura.

El parque natural de las Dunas de Corralejo en Fuerteventura
Presentación general
Las Dunas de Corralejo son un sistema de dunas al norte de la isla de Fuerteventura. Estas dunas cubren una franja costera norte-sur, a 8 km de largo por 2,5 km de ancho, con una superficie de 18.35 km², que termina con largas playas de arena blanca. Estas son las dunas más grandes de las Islas Canarias, más grandes que las dunas de Maspalomas en Gran Canaria.
Etimología y toponimia
La zona de las dunas de Corralejo fue nombrada «Le Sable» por los conquistadores normandos de Fuerteventura (Fortaventure), a principios del siglo XV. El nombre actual «El Jable» es una hispanización de este nombre francés.
El Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corralejo se encuentra en el territorio del municipio de La Oliva, al sureste de la localidad de Corralejo.
El Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corralejo
El Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corralejo se compone de dunas activas que renuevan y se mueven bajo la influencia de los vientos alisios del noreste constantemente ; las dunas son más estables en el norte. Las dunas de arena blanca de Corralejo están compuestos de materia orgánica 90%, a partir de la desintegración y la pulverización de conchas de moluscos y otros organismos marinos a esqueleto externo.
valor geomorfológico y paisajístico de este sistema de dunas llevó, en 1982, su protección como el Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corralejo y la Isla de Los Lobos. En 1994, las Dunas de Corralejo y la Isla de Los Lobos fueron separados en dos parque natural distinta.
El Parque Natural de Corralejo (Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corralejo) incluye sistema de dunas llamado El Jable, pero el flujo de lava llamado Montaña de los Apartaderos y el cráter de Montaña Roja (alcanzando un máximo de 312 m sobre el nivel del mar) el cual está separado del sistema de dunas por el Barranco de las Pilas. El parque natural tiene una superficie de 26,69 km². Es hábitat de numerosas especies vegetales y animales endémicas protegidas.
A pesar de esta categoría de Parque Natural, las Dunas de Corralejo son atravesados por la carretera de la costa FV-1 – arena barrida por el viento a menudo – que conecta la localidad de Corralejo, en la capital de la isla, Puerto del Rosario ; pero hay un proyecto para crear una carretera que eludir el sistema de dunas desde el oeste. Por otra parte, en la parte norte del Parque Natural son dos hoteles construidos alrededor de 1975 para aprovechar las largas playas de fina arena blanca, bordeada por el agua clara. Estos hoteles pueden presumir de una ubicación única, construida antes de la clasificación de la zona en el Parque Natural.
La flora de las dunas de Corralejo
El parque de las Dunas Corralejo es hábitat de 18 especies de plantas endémicas protegidas, incluyendo fabagelle de Desfontaines (Zygophyllum fontanesii) designado uvilla español, soda real (Suaeda vera) (brusquilla o matomoro) y un miembro de la familia Amaranthaceae del Traganum Moquin (Traganum moquinii) (balancón). Estas plantas se adaptan a las condiciones adversas dunas que están constantemente en movimiento.
La fauna de las dunas de Corralejo
La fauna del Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corralejo incluye 17 especies animales, incluyendo aves marinas y costeras, reptiles e invertebrados, especialmente escarabajos.
Las especies representativas del parque – cuyo símbolo marca los límites del parque natural en la carretera FV-1 – es la hubara (Chlamydotis undulata fuertaventurae) (hubara de canarias), una especie en peligro, incluyendo el más grande colonia en la isla se encuentra en el parque. El parque es, con la isla de Los Lobos la Zona de especial protección para las aves o ZEPA.
En el parque también se encuentran fósiles de albañil nidos de abejas (Antophora). Estos fósiles de pequeñas urnas de forma ovoide, de 3 a 4 cm de largo, hecha de arena y cal, datan de hace varios miles de años, cuando el clima de Fuerteventura era más húmedo y el suelo de zonas fangosas.
Información útil
El biotopo de las Dunas de Corralejo es muy sensible a las limitaciones de todo tipo ; es por ello que se prohíbe el uso de vehículos todo terreno y severamente castigado : se puede visitar El Jable a pie.

Parque Natural de Corralejo Fuerteventura
Se encuentra en la parte Norte de la isla, comprendiendo un amplio campo de dunas, un sector de Malpaís y un cono volcánico (Montaña Roja).
Nombradas Parque Natural en 1994, las Dunas de Corralejo, son un referente turístico para los visitantes de Fuerteventura. Además de ser Parque Natural, alberga una gran variedad de aves, lo que ha provocado que, junto al Islote de Lobos, fuese declarado como Zona Especial de Protección de Aves, relativa a la conservación de aves silvestres.
Este punto muestra la grandiosidad de un terreno marcado por la riqueza paisajística que combina la frescura del mar más limpio con la tranquilidad de las dunas de arena. Un placer para los sentidos situado en uno de los centros económicos más importantes de la isla.

Corona Forestal in Tenerife | Parque natural de la Corona Forestal
Corona Forestal Nature Reserve or Corona Forestal Natural Park (Spanish: Parque Natural Corona Forestal) is a protected area of the island of Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain). It covers an area of 41.067.7 hectares and is considered the largest protected area in the Canary Islands. It extends at altitudes from 300 to 2718 meters above sea level, at the highest point of Alto de Guajara (Spanish: Alto de Guajara). In addition, the “Crown Forestal” is located on three ridges: “Pedro Gil” (Spanish: Pedro Gil), Abeke (Spanish: Abeque) and the Adeje Range (Spanish: Adeje).
This place is mostly forested, surrounding the Teide National Park. Its total space is included in 18 municipalities of the island of Tenerife, these are: Los Realejos, Adeje, Vilaflor, Guia de Isora, Santiago del Teide, Garachico, Icod de Los Vinos, La Orotava, La Guancha, San Juan de La Rambla, Granadilla, Arico, Fasnia, El Tanke, Guimar, Arafo, Candelaria and La Victoria de Acentejo. The park is not only a headland of treetops, but also the upper part of the ravines and canyons that make up the drainage system from the north to the south of the island.
The reserve presents to us all the series of geological processes, the last of which is the 4th series, which is associated with volcanic eruptions: Fasnia (1705), Siete Fuentes (1704) and Montaña de Las Arenas (Arafo – 1706).
The wooded area consists mainly of Canarian pine and is mostly located on the north side of the island. The remaining small part is the evergreen laurel forests of “Monteverde”, growing in the western part, in the southern enclave and partly entering the Güimar valley.
The fauna is quite diverse, there are endemic species that are unique to these places, for example, the blue finch, which is one of the symbols of the island. The great spotted woodpecker is widespread, several species of bats, among them the endemic Plecotus teneriffae. On the other side, there are moufflons and rabbits, which are sometimes hunted.
In the photos above we see beautiful landscapes with a dense pine forest, but sometimes disasters occur here in the form of strong fires, such as the one that occurred in July 2012. 1,200 hectares of Canarian pine, or the same “Crown Forestal” in the southern part of the Adeje ridge, burned out. Fortunately, pine in Tenerife tends to recover, due to its dense woody base, through which it is difficult for fire to pass. Literally in half a year, about 98% of the trees put out young green needles again, recovering from severe consequences.
History
Earlier in the pre-colonial period in the forest zone “Crown Forestal”, there was a lot of activity on the part of the ancient inhabitants of the Guanches who inhabited the island in past times. The fruits of their actions have survived to this day in the form of pastures, shelters, burial caves and various finds. Later, following the Castilian conquest, the park experienced a marked use of resources based mainly on the extraction of tree resin and timber for the maritime industry as well as housing construction. There has been deforestation. However, the intensive new afforestation policy, which continues to this day, has contributed to the fact that the vegetation cover has increased significantly.
How to get there
In order to see all the beauty of the natural park, you need to get to the road called TF-24, from which beautiful views of the northern and southern parts of the island and the trees of the park open up. Mirador de Chipeque (observation deck) is one of the most beautiful places on the island of Tenerife. Buses do not go here, you need to get there by car or order a Russian-speaking driver who will not only show this amazing site, but also other equally valuable places.
The height of Guajara ( Spanish Alto de Guajara) or Mount Guajara ( Spanish Montana de Guajara) is the highest point of the Teide National Park, if you do not take into account the Teide volcano itself with its height of 3718 m. Mountain Guajara at its peak is 2718 meters above sea level, completely volcanic origin, which began about three million years ago.
If you like hiking, then you can make an exciting journey by climbing the peak of the mountain along hiking trails. One of them starts at the Parador Hotel. The total return journey is about 13 kilometers, 4 hours 30 minutes.
Legend
The princess of the ancient inhabitants of the Guanches of Guajara, having learned about the loss of her beloved Tinguaro (Tinguaro – the main militia of the Guanches) in the battle of Aguere (Spanish Aguere – now La Laguna), climbed the mountain and wandered for a long time on it, unable to bear the loss and having lost further meaning, she threw herself into the void from the top. In honor of her, the mountain Alto de Guajara (Russian “Height of Guajara”) was named.
Chipek Lookout (Spanish: Mirador de Chipeque). Located at height 1902 meters above sea level, surrounded by coniferous forests, flowering plants and “hungry lizards”, of which there are a lot.
One of the best viewing platforms in our opinion. On a cloudless day, you can see the city of Puerto de La Cruz from here, which is on the lower right. On the top left, you can see the observatory and, of course, the Teide volcano itself. At the top right, if you are lucky, then two hills are visible in the sky – this is the island of La Palma. And the crowns of the Canary pine successfully fit into the mountain landscape, spreading along the La Orotava valley.
Coordinates: 28.373928, -16.463825 Open: 24 hours a day How to get there: TF-24 road to the sign for Mirador.

National parks of the Canary Islands. Spain in Russian
Imagine for a moment the amazing landscape of volcanic islands with subtropical forest, unique species of animals and plants, one of the largest craters in the world and warm weather all year round. .. If that sounds attractive, then you are in luck: you can see it all with your own eyes in four national parks of Spain in the Canary Islands. Real wonders of nature within reach!
To see the Canary Islands is to discover places of incredible beauty, whether on the coast or in the mountains. There are 546 endemic plant species and 141 protected natural areas in the Canary Islands, many of which are national parks. All the islands are close to each other and have good communication between each other, so you can visit them all in no time.
Caldera de Taburiente National Park (Parque nacional de la Caldera de Taburiente)
You can start your journey on the island of La Palma, in the territory of the Caldera de Taburiente National Park (Parque nacional de la Caldera de Taburiente). There you can go into a huge crater almost to a depth of 1500 meters and take a walk in a pine forest. There are gorges over 1000 meters deep that frame waterfalls such as La Desfondada. Sounds mesmerizing, doesn’t it? You can go to the camping area and explore on your own all the hiking trails leading to the Hoya Verde and Cascada de Colores waterfalls.
You can climb high peaks, such as Roque de los Muchachos, and catch the rare mountain violet in bloom. If you’ve taken the GR 131 long-distance hiking route that runs along its peaks, you can spend the night at Punta de los Roques, a mountain retreat that is always open and stocked with essentials. The National Park of La Caldera de Taburiente has a modern visitor information center equipped with an exhibition and audio-visual room that tells about the flora, fauna, history and geology of the place.
Garajonay, La Gomera
Another beautiful National Park in the Canary Islands is Garajonay on the island of La Gomera. There you will have a unique opportunity to see the prehistoric laurel forest of Laurisilva. It is one of the last remnants of ancient subtropical forests that grew here 20 million years ago! Immerse yourself in the foggy atmosphere of this strange forest, feel the pleasure of leisurely exploring the park, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Enjoy the beauty of its paths, meet creatures such as the Canarian big-eared bat and long-eared owl, and take photos of the stunning scenery from vantage points. By the way, these bats are a prehistoric endemic species endemic to the Canary Islands (Latin name Plecotus teneriffae). There are only 500 to 1,000 of these animals left in the world, here and in Tenerife. They feed on moths and midges and are harmless to humans. Be friendly to them too.
Visit the park’s visitor information centre, which has several exhibition halls and an ethnographic museum. You can learn a lot about the island’s traditional culture and see the inside of a farmhouse, wine cellars and historic buildings.
Volcano Country – Teide National Park
Want some more options? Please! On the island of Tenerife you will find the Teide National Park. It is the largest in the Canary Islands and is also part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Feel the full power of the highest volcano in Europe, which catches the clouds at an altitude of 3718 meters above sea level. Now imagine that once, before strong eruptions, it was twice as high!
Would you like to go up there? Easily! Dress warmly, as it never gets more than +10 degrees at the top, and forward to the funicular. Visitors are allowed to climb to a height of up to 3550 meters on any day. To overcome the last 200 meters in height, you need to apply for a special permit and get a free pass.
The possibilities of this park are enormous. In addition to the wonderful landscapes that can be seen from different viewpoints, you can visit the botanical gardens and the Ethnographic Museum of Juan Evora, the original home of the last native, who traditionally was engaged in farming and herding sheep. Teide National Park has a huge number of hiking trails of varying length and complexity. You can come to the reserve by car, but it is strictly forbidden to set up a tent, so think over the way home in advance.
Timanfaya National Park, Lanzarote
Finally, head to Lanzarote to see the Timanfaya Parque Nacional. When you get there, you will feel like you have landed on the moon. This park has a strange and wonderful ancient landscape of volcanic terrain, along with “malpaises” (areas of hardened lava) created by recent eruptions.
Guides often show visitors how seawater turns into steam when it comes into contact with volcanic chimneys. You can enjoy this spectacle from various vantage points along several routes that offer a good vantage point.
Volcano Route is a fun hike where you can even walk through a volcanic chimney and see the Timanfaya craters. The island also has a Coastal Route, a great way to see the cliffs where lava once flowed into the sea. For even more adventure, you can do camel trekking on the southern slopes of the mountain.
Sports in the national parks of the Canary Islands
And if you like not only looking at stunning landscapes, but also exploring them, the national parks in the Canary Islands offer such a travel option. Alpinism and rock climbing are not common in the Canaries, but trekking is not! Put on the right shoes and go for a walk. You will be able to experience complete oneness with nature… For example, Caldera de Taburiente is known for its charming walking paths leading to attractive places in the park itself. The volcanic landscape of the archipelago makes it ideal for trekking enthusiasts – the Caldera de Taburiente and the Teide National Park have trails with different levels of difficulty.
Do you prefer water sports? Wonderful! When the heat comes, in Caldera de Taburiente you can swim in the Taburiente River and its waterfalls. Other facilities available at Garajonay include diving centers and boat cruises. You will definitely enjoy the beautiful sea approaches on these islands.
Four parks, with their amazing colors, landscapes and wonderful climate, are suitable for visiting at any time of the year, but it is best to come here in April, May, September and October. The Canary Islands are waiting for true adventure lovers, and not just adherents of an imposing beach holiday and shopping!

What to expect
Overview of the history of the island I will pick you up by car at any convenient place and after a walk in the park I will bring you back.

I will tell you about the indigenous population of the Guanches, who practically disappeared after the arrival of the Spaniards on the island, about the modern life of Tenerife and share tips for a comfortable stay on the island.
Amazing Loro Parque The park has its own amazing history, which began with the passion of the founder of the park for parrots. Now there are more than 700 parrots in the park. Every day there are shows with dolphins, killer whales and fur seals; here you can see tigers and jaguars, chimpanzees and sloths, flamingos and cranes, turtles and crocodiles. There is also a cinema, an orchid garden, a museum of porcelain parrots, a playground and an Australian corner with hanging ladders and birds fluttering around you. And in the park there is a curious building built in the Thai style – one of the largest made in this style outside of Thailand.

Denis is your guide in Tenerife
Conducted 747 excursions for 804 tourists
My name is Denis! I am from Voronezh. The first specialty is a physicist, the second education is economics. History, nature, travel have always been just a hobby. But once I got to the Island and from the first days of my stay I felt an irresistible craving for this tiny piece of land lost in the Atlantic Ocean. In the autumn of the same year, the whole family moved to Tenerife. I will be glad to show you the majestic Volcano, relict forests and beautiful rocks. I am sure that you will fall in love with this place and maybe come back here more than once or even stay here forever like me.

Very great tour. Guide Denis arrived at the ship on time and we immediately set off. On the way, he talked very interestingly about the Canary Islands and Tenerife, because he has been living there for a long time. The very visit to Loro Park (~ 40 km from mx) was very pleasant, we managed to watch four shows: with fur seals, with parrots, with dolphins and, as the apotheosis of the visit, with killer whales. At the exit, our guide Denis offered to drive to the Teide volcano and he controlled the time to return to mx perfectly, he is an excellent driver, despite the winding mountain road, no one got sick. We enjoyed the beautiful views of the mountain nature of Tenerife, passing through the clouds and the panorama of the coast, the photos were extremely successful. To th got back on time. This tour will be of interest to pensioners, like us, and parents with adults and not very children, and sightseers without children, and as for the arrival to Teide, we consider this a great bonus to the tour.

Car rental in Fuerteventura – Localrent.
com
Car rental is the most convenient and profitable way to get to know Fuerteventura better. Bus service is not very developed here, excursion programs are designed for the average tourist, and not specifically for you, and a busy taxi trip will be expensive. A rental car is a great way to organize your unique trip around the island.
You can pick up and return the booked car directly at Fuerteventura Airport.
So you don’t have to wait for a bus, take all your fellow travelers to their hotels or spend extra money on a taxi. 10-15 minutes to receive the car and you are already rushing towards your wonderful vacation.
Rent a car on Localrent.com
Our site contains offers from various local car rental companies. Here you can easily and quickly compare all available options, choose the best car and book it right away.
The rental price is fixed at the time of booking. When picking up the car, you will only need to pay the amount indicated on the voucher.

How many days to rent a car in Fuerteventura

And if you want to have a lazy vacation, slightly diluted with a small trip, then you can take a car for a couple of days and visit only the very best.
What documents will be needed and what kind of insurance to choose
For rent you will need:
valid license “B” category
passport
bank card
What kind of insurance is needed for Fuerteventura? This island is different in that there are not a huge number of tourists here, which means there are few cars. An experienced driver who feels confident behind the wheel can opt for basic OSAGO insurance, which is included in the rental price. And if you want to make sure just in case, you can buy CASCO, Super CASCO or full coverage. A detailed description of insurance is indicated on the card of each car.
Which car is ideal for your trip
If you are satisfied with the beach near the hotel, but you need a car to go to the nearest town, then a compact subcompact will be enough.
If you want to arrange a longer trip: test different beaches, take pictures against the backdrop of dunes and rocks – choose a more comfortable and powerful car, middle class or luxury.
A crossover with a large trunk is useful if you climbed to the island for the sake of surfing.
And, of course, if you are planning a walk along the coast with a photo session, then pay attention to convertibles.
Roads
The most significant cities are connected by the FV-2 highway. Driving here is a pleasure. The road is smooth, the surface is excellent, the views are magnificent.
Secondary roads are worse, but without potholes. Be careful on serpentines and refuel with a margin: fuel consumption is higher in the mountains.
Features of traffic rules
European traffic rules, and for everything to be in order, you need to remember three basic rules:
Never break the speed limit. Watch for speed limit road signs and obey them – there are radars along the roads.
Do not park your car on a roadside marked with a yellow line or a yellow zigzag, even for a short time.
Do not drive drunk.
And one more thing – on the island you can not drive a car with a bare torso, bare feet or beach slippers. All participants in the trip should not put their hands out of the car.
Parking Fuerteventura
There are not many tourists here, so it will not be difficult to find parking. In the centers of large cities, parking is paid. You can recognize them by the blue markings. Payment at the parking meter. The check must be placed on the dashboard so that the inspector can verify that payment has been made.
Free car parks are marked with white markings.
Yellow line – parking is strictly prohibited.
Where to go by car in Fuerteventura
There are few cultural and historical sights here, as the island is sparsely populated. But you can admire nature for a long time and with taste!
Many excellent beaches , if you go swimming, you will be 100% satisfied. On local beaches, the sand is yellow, gray, black volcanic, white. Beaches with light sand are located in the northern part, in the Corralejo area. Black beach lovers will love AJUY. The visiting card of the island is Cofete beach, it is beautiful, brutal, wild and not crowded. Take a look at Playa de Castillo – a sandy bay without waves and a bunch of shells. One of the few historical curiosities is located there: Fortress San Buenaventura , an 18th century fortification built to protect against pirates.
Visit Betancuria Natural Park are low but beautiful mountains with many hiking trails and opportunities to photograph mountain goats and Maghreb squirrels. The road itself runs along intriguing “alien” landscapes.
If you want to know how natural cosmetics are made from aloe , check out Canary Aloe Vera Finca. Here you will be told and shown everything in detail. And, of course, they will offer to buy local products. But unobtrusively.
Interesting natural park Corralejo in the northeast, “little Sahara” with sand dunes, gorgeous beaches and the Montaña Roja volcano.
Don’t miss Entallada lighthouse in the east of the island. Its height is 12 meters, the facade is lined with red and white stones and faces the ocean. The panoramic view from here is worthy of a photo.

Discover the World’s Best Place to Retire in 2022
International Living are giving away a FREE research report on the most desirable—and cheapest—retirement havens available to you today.
Each day you’ll learn about the best places to retire, travel, buy real estate and enjoy life overseas.
First on the list is a trip to Las Palmas, the biggest city on the island. Hop on a guagua (the local name for public buses) or rent a car at the airport and drive the half an hour trip to the capital city. Once there, head straight to the old town of Vegueta, a colonial neighborhood of hand-carved wooden doorways and stone-paved roads.
Take your time walking along the colorful facades and lift your eyes to meet the typical Canarian balconies and 500-year-old Gothic and Neoclassical architecture.
If you get tired of walking up and down Vegueta’s streets, stop to get a drink and a bite to eat in one of the many homely tascas (small bars that also serve food) around.
2. Discover the History of Gran Canaria at Casa de Colón Museum
While walking around the old town you will surely stumble upon a yellow colonial-style mansion with an enormous stone carved doorway: it is Casa de Colón, a museum where you can learn all there is to know about the Canary Islands and its relation to the conquest of the Americas.
You can learn, with its several permanent exhibits, about the relationship between the Canary Islands and the New World, what pre-Hispanic America was like, and how Columbus and other explorers ventured the seas.
At Casa de Colón there are also seasonal exhibitions of Spain’s fine art, ancient music concerts, and lectures on Canarian history.
Once the house of the governor of Las Palmas, Casa de Colón was built in the spot where the city was founded, a few blocks away from the old city market.
On Thursdays, stay in Vegueta until 8 p.m. to meet with locals and tourists alike at the old market, and flood the surrounding Pelota and Mendizabal Streets to enjoy a classic tapas experience with a fun Canarian twist.
The premise is simple, the night starts when the pinchos, small appetizers on a stick,are out on every tascas. It follows with you hopping from one restaurant to the next, eating and drinking until they run out. Mild Canarian beer and red wine are always served with this special tapas. And that’s it!
In Vegueta, you will find everything on a stick, from Iberian pork jam to Saharan octopus and even vegetarian options like egg and potato omelet sandwich.
On the other side of the city of Las Palmas, right in the middle of its busiest area, there is a 1.8-mile golden sand beach called Las Canteras and a marine reserve that thrives with underwater life. The crystal-clear waters and golden sand of this Gran Canarian bay are protected by La Barra, a volcanic rock formation that works as a wave breaker.
During the day, when the tide is low, Las Canteras Beach becomes the perfect spot for swimming, paddling, snorkeling. At night, diving and snorkeling tours can be booked to watch angel sharks and Saharan octopus among other species.
Around the La Barra area, water activities are recommended with care when the tide is high. Currents can be very strong and rocks hiding under the water could become a hazard.
But even at high tides, the beach can still be enjoyed. With waves up to 16 feet, the southernmost tip of Las Canteras is perfect for surfing.
Also, all along the coastline, there is a promenade where you can sit and watch endless views of the ocean while enjoying a refreshing tinto de verano (wine with lemon soda) from one of the several bars and restaurant terraces.
A few hours away from Las Palmas, in the western part of Gran Canaria, there is a secluded, unspoiled, black sand beach called Güigüi that is a must-visit spot on the island. But getting there is not easy.
Güigüi Beach can be reached by water taxi from the beautiful harbor of Mogan or, for more adventurous travelers, by driving up to the Güigüi track and hiking a 2.5-hour path through the Canarian mountains.
If you are up for some adventure, follow the main road to Tasartico village from Las Palmas and from there the signs will lead you to a dirt road. Continue until you reach the Güigüi track signpost and park there.
The hike starts with a challenging half-mile climb that takes you from 160 to 2000 feet above sea level and then downhill a 2. 5-mile mountain track with jaw-dropping views of the sea, Tenerife Island, and the Teide Volcano. It finishes right on the dark sands of Güigüi beach.
Bear in mind that the trip back to your car is going to be a steep 2.5-mile uphill climb and that along the track there is no shelter from the sun and almost no wind. The hike should not be attempted without enough water or during the hottest part of the day.

Each day you’ll learn about the best places to retire, travel, buy real estate and enjoy life overseas.
If you don’t like the idea of a secluded beach but still want to escape the buzz and fuzz of the city, head out to one of northern Gran Canaria’s small towns by the sea and plunge into its many natural pools.
These enclosed spaces of volcanic rock, into which seawater seeps without human intervention, can be found all around the island and are usually surrounded by Martian-like volcanic landscapes carved by the water through millennia.
In these pools you can swim without having to worry about currents or waves and plunge into the transparent waters of the Atlantic Ocean while colorful fishes and crabs watch you with curiosity.
7. Watch the Changing Scenery at Maspalomas Reserve Dunes
On the southernmost tip of the island, you can find Maspalomas Dunes, one of Gran Canaria’s natural wonders. You’ll find a dynamic sand dune system, palm groves, a saltwater lagoon, and a golden beach stretching as far as the eye can see.
This 1000-acre patch of protected Nature Reserve is in constant change as the sand shifts with the wind and the tides form a different landscape each day.
Be sure to take your camera, the photo possibilities are endless.
8. Visit the Archeological Site of Risco Caído at Artenara
It is not just the coastline that is worth visiting in Gran Canaria. Right in the center of the island, the archaeological site of Risco Caído holds the remains of the troglodyte settlements in which the pre-Hispanic owners of the land used to live.
In this UNESCO World Heritage Site, you can see how the original settlers thrived in complete isolation; some caves worked as habitats, granaries, and cisterns, as well as two sacred temples where seasonal ceremonies were held.
In one of the caves, the only one in the Canary archipelago that has a stone-carved dome ceiling, there is an opening that lets in the sunlight which shines over a series of drawings and stone shelves that mark the time and harvest seasons of the year.
Risco Caído is an impressive site to immerse yourself in a culture so old and different that it transports you to ancient times.
Roque Nublo is the perfect evening spot for nature lovers. At more than 5700 feet above sea level and right in the middle of the island, this 260-foot tall rock monolith guarantees a perfect view of the sunset over a sea of clouds, with the island of Tenerife and the Teide Volcano on the horizon.
The pre-Hispanic settlers considered Roque Nublo a sacred place, and its meaning has transcended culture to become one of the most loved icons of the island for Canarians.
Almost every road coming from the north or the west of the island takes you to a parking lot at the base of Roque Nublo. Once there you will have to walk a quick but steep one-mile path to get to the best sunset-watching spot on the island.
Conclusion
When traveling from Gran Canaria’s airport to the city of Las Palmas, the island might strike you as a very humble and dry land. But if you take the time to visit its most iconic places and wander around its many unspoiled landscapes, you will find that it astonishes you for sure.
From perfectly preserved Spanish colonial towns to troglodyte caves, delicious Canarian food, and some of the best beaches in Spain, Gran Canaria has a lot to offer wanderlust visitors.

Guide to Las Palmas in Gran Canaria, Spain
Guide to Las Palmas in Gran Canaria, Spain – Best Things to Do, Cost of Living and Much More
By Michelle Thompson
The island of Gran Canaria offers all the benefits of living in mainland Spain, as well as the appeal of hot weather and an island destination. This location is perfect for anyone who loves spending time in the outdoors. Gran Canaria, the third largest of the Canary Islands, has so much to offer when it comes to its natural landscapes, you’ll love planning day trips around the island.
Gran Canaria is located in the Atlantic Ocean, about 62 miles from the coast of Africa. The island is around 31 square miles and has a maximum elevation of 6,417 feet thanks to two majestic mountains: Morro de la Agujereada and Pico de las Nieves. The largest of its cities, Las Palmas, has a population of 381,223. Gran Canaria mostly sits on top of mountainous areas made of volcanic rock and lush forests. The island has many beautiful beaches accessible along its coastlines, such as Playa de Maspalomas, Playa de Amadores, and Playa Tiritaña.
There are also several awe-inspiring rock formations and protected landscapes in and around the island. Roque Nublo, located in the municipality of Tejeda, has historic significance for local residents. Produced by a volcano and sitting at 262 feet high, it is one of the highest points on Gran Canaria and one of the tallest natural cliffs in the world. Roque Nublo is a sacred site for Indigenous communities on the island and is accessible by a 1.9-mile hike.
The Canary Islands were conquered by the Spanish in the year 1483 during the expansion of Spain into the new world. Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and the port city of Santa Cruz de Tenerife on the neighboring island of Tenerife are now joint capitals of the Canary Islands. Politically, the Canary Islands are considered autonomous communities, but residents recognize the constitution and laws of Spain. This way of governing was set up as a way of ensuring limited autonomy for some nationalities and regions in the country.
Agriculture was historically a big part of Gran Canaria’s economy, which focused on the production of sugarcane and grain on colonial plantations. However, today the island relies heavily on the tourism industry, with 80% of its income generated by national and global visitors.
Generally speaking, the Canary Islands have amazing weather and an affordable cost of living. While Gran Canaria and neighboring Tenerife are popular tourist destinations, they are also home to a large expat community. The largest groups include Spanish citizens from the mainland, citizens from the U.K., and Germans.
The climate in Gran Canaria is desert-like, with a low amount of annual precipitation. The weather is warm in spring, summer, and autumn. Winters are mild, with temperatures averaging between 59 F and 69 F. On average, temperature highs reach around 81 F. The annual rainfall averages around nine inches a year with the highest mountains seeing a bit of snow between October and June.
Gran Canaria has well-maintained, modern roads and a good public transportation system, making it easy for people to get around the entire island. Las Palmas has the Gran Canaria Airport which takes travelers to and from Morocco, Mauritania, Senegal, Cape Verde, and Spain. As well, the city has a system of public buses called guaguas. Taxi service is also readily available to residents. You can catch the weekly ferry from Las Palmas to Cadiz, Spain, but the journey is around 40 hours long.
There are over 258 square miles of protected land on the island. These protected natural areas include eight nature reserves such as Inagua and Barranco Oscuro. They also feature four parks, mainly located in rural areas. These parks, Tamadaba, Pilancones, Doramas, and Nublo, have experienced deforestation over the years, and local governments have developed reforestation programs in recent decades to address the problem. That said, they are very popular with locals and visitors who enjoy spending time in nature.
Because of its beautiful landscapes, beaches, and sand dunes, as well as its greenery and picturesque villages, Gran Canaria is considered a biosphere reserve and has protected status with UNESCO. The island receives more than 3.6 million tourists a year. This means many of the seaside towns are usually bustling with life.
Puerto de la Luz is Las Palma’s main port for commercial and fishing vessels and receives many sports and passenger boats. The city is quite walkable, although the terrain is hilly. There are many amazing hiking trails to choose from and they often lead to breathtaking views of beaches and bays.
Playa Tiritana is a small beach hidden away in the town of Mogan about 58 miles outside of Las Palmas. This tiny beach is about 328 feet wide with a lovely view of the ocean and crystal-blue waters. Playa de Amadores is a bigger, more popular beach. It has clean, white sand and clear waters, as well as the convenience of nearby restaurants and a lifeguard on duty. Playa de Las Canteras is the largest beach in the city of Las Palmas and is popular with locals and foreigners alike. It has a large boardwalk running parallel to it.
The most popular areas on Gran Canaria are the coastal towns of Maspalomas and Meloneras, located on the south of the island. They are known for their resorts and touristy beaches. If you’re looking for shopping opportunities, these areas have a decent shopping center called Centro Comercial Playa Meloneras. You will also see several hotels in both towns with the typical 20th-century Spanish Colonial Revival style of architecture, which based their design on the colonial buildings of the Americas.
The city of Las Palmas is where most cultural events take place in Gran Canaria. It is host to a number of festivals, celebrations, and concerts annually. Every year, it organizes the Canary Islands Music Festival and the International Film Festival. Las Palmas and its surrounding municipalities also have several museums to offer, including the Museo Canario which has a large collection of historical objects available to the public. There is also a lovely theater (Teatro Perez Galdos) named after Canarian author Benito Perez Galdos, and a museum dedicated to Canarian artist Nestor Martin-Fernandez de la Torre. In addition, residents celebrate their annual Carnaval, one of the most popular events in Spain. The festivities include the gala of drag queens, a street parade, and live music.
When it comes to sports, the city of Las Palmas offers all the usual big-city amenities you would expect. It has an ACB basketball league club called CB Gran Canaria and an arena with a capacity of 11,000 spectators. It also has a soccer club in the second division called UD Las Palmas, and a large stadium with a capacity of over 32,000. In addition to this, you will find an auditorium which plays host to international conferences and events, and several public libraries such as La Biblioteca Simon Benitez Padilla which specializes in the earth sciences.
Las Palmas has two general hospitals, the only large healthcare facilities on the island. That said, there are several smaller private hospitals and medical clinics in the city and around Gran Canaria. The system accommodates both public and private patients, however, in the islands, there may be a long wait for public services. Las Palmas is generally safe, but you should avoid the Santa Catalina Park at night.
The cost of living in Gran Canaria is more affordable than you would think. While Las Palmas itself and some of the resort towns may have higher rental prices, they remain affordable, and other areas on the island will offer even cheaper options. Renting a one-bedroom apartment in the city center will cost around $750 per month. A three-bedroom apartment will cost around $1,275 per month.
On average, utilities cost around $76 per month, covering heating, cooling, electricity, and water fees. Internet services will cost you an average of $54 per month.

Best Things to Do in Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria offers its residents so many beautiful landscapes and beaches, visiting them all will keep you busy for a long time. The city of Las Palmas is the cultural and business center of the island and boasts several modern facilities, museums, and sports venues. If you’re a nature lover and enjoy the seaside life, you will be catered to here, and will likely find yourself feeling at home very quickly.
My most memorable experience in Gran Canaria was eating paella with friends at a seaside restaurant near the ocean and listening to a street musician play the Spanish guitar as we ate. You can find magic in Las Palmas.
Here are just a few interesting activities to do in Las Palmas and the surrounding towns:
Barranco de Guayadeque is located near the town of Agüimes, about a 45-minute bus ride from Las Palmas. An impressive and sizable ravine, it is home to many local florae and fauna, as well as several medieval cave houses. Visitors also have the option to visit the Guayadeque Museum and learn about the many mummies found in the caves. The cave dwellings were used for storing food, celebrating fertility rituals, and as family homes. The valley is now listed as a protected national heritage site by the Spanish government in an effort to preserve its history.
The Maspalomas Dunes are south of the island near the town of San Bartolome de Tirajana. The sands are a protected nature reserve and were formed during the last ice age when the wind blew them towards the island after the water receded. The area is popular with tourists and walking through the sands is allowed on designated paths. The trails are five miles long and the entrance is about a 45-minute drive from the city of Las Palmas.
Cenobio de Valeron is an ancient Indigenous settlement located on the cliffs of Montaña del Gallero. The geological site was built more than 800 years ago and was used for grain collection storage. More than 350 cavities are lining the escarpment from top to bottom. The word cenobio means monastery, however, the name is based on a false theory that the cavities were once used as a convent for young noble women. Guided tours are available to visitors.
The Jardin Botanico Canario is about four miles outside of Las Palmas and is the region’s most important flora conservation area. The garden features many plant species indigenous to the Canary Islands and the Macaronesia region. Entrance is free and you can visit various natural habitats on the property, including the Camino de los Dragos (Path of the Dragons) and the Jardin de las Islas (Garden of the Islands).
Technically speaking, the highest point on Gran Canaria is the Morro de La Agujereada—this majestic mountain is 6,417 feet high—although this is contested by many locals who believe the Pico de Las Nieves is the tallest on the island. You can view both mountains from the Mirador del Pico de Los Pozos de Las Nieves. There are official and unofficial trails available to visitors. It is recommended to wear a light jacket or sweater as well as good footwear since the climate becomes much cooler as you climb in altitude. Amateur photographers will enjoy discovering many of the local rock formations while walking on the trails.

Not too far from Maspalamos is Artenara, one of the highest and oldest village in Gran Canaria. It is a perfect mountain village to escape the buzz and sounds of busy towns in Gran Canaria.
7. Amazing sunsets
Gran Canaria enjoys 320 days of sunshine and due to its strategic location it naturally is a best destination to watch sunsets. Why not walk along the coast near Faro Maspalomas during sunset? If you want breathtaking sunsets, we suggest you stick to the southern coast. However views of sunset from the mountain isn’t any less either. Reach one of the mountain summits and you can enjoy the sweeping views and glistening sun at the same time.
8. Layers of mountains
Gran Canaria is blessed with specular mountain ranges and has long attracted mountain lovers. Be it the second highest peak Pico de las Nieves or the weirder Morro de la Agujereada, which has grown 6 metres tall since 2018, thus becoming the tallest mountain in Gran Canaria. Aguimes mountains being a protected area provides unspoilt scenery along with archeological remains and cave dwellings.

While the stunning coastlines dictate the south of Gran Canaria, volcanic mountains and rock formations dominate the north of the island. From high mountain to deep gorges and valleys, lush green vegetation to nature reserves and sand dunes, Gran Canaria provides a diverse landscape that is appealing for all kind of travellers.
9. Cave dwellings
While the exact history is still argued and unknown, it is believed that cave dwellings existed in Gran Canaria as far as 2500 years ago. Guanches are the people, who probably arrived from Africa during the 1st century BC and established cave dwellings. However, it is only in the 15th century these cave dwellings were discovered. Today, the remains of cave dwellings are evident in many parts of Gran Canaria. Visit Valeron Monastery that are largest granary with 8 levels and as many as 350 storage spaces. It is also worth visiting Galder Painted Cave and Guayadeque ravine that is notable for its cave dwellings.

Things to Know before Traveling to Gran Canaria
The Canary Islands are a well-known destination for European travelers, who flock to the relatively nearby islands’ beaches from Germany, Scandinavia, Italy and the UK. For Americans, though, this destination is totally off our radar.
After reading a little about the islands, we chose to spend nearly a week in Gran Canaria, one of the major two islands of the largest seven (the other is Tenerife).
What did we learn in the Canaries?
What are wrinkly potatoes?
Sounds weird, but papas arrugadas are actually quite delicious. Boiled in sea salt, they are served with ‘mojo,’ and every restaurant has its own recipe. Mojo was sometimes mild and sometimes packed a punch. The wrinkly potatoes were sometimes sprinkled with sea salt and were sometimes so salty from being boiled in salty water that salt had crystallized on their skins.
Papas arrugadas go for EUR 3-5, depending on the caliber of the place where you’re eating.
You can get your desert dune money shot at Maspalomas (but don’t spend a night there).
Maspalomas is the second-largest city on Gran Canaria, located on the south coast, where the weather is nearly almost better than in the north.
By putting ‘Dunas de Maspalomas’ in Google Maps, we parked our car on the street and entered a long walkway next to the RUI Hotel. From the end of the path, you start seeing endless sand dunes, and it is totally wild.
Check out more maps!
Unlock more maps like this with your email address! You’ll automatically be signed up for more map and location related things from us in the future.
Beyond the dunes is the Atlantic Ocean. We had never seen anything like it. If you keep walking into the dunes, some are really high, and you’ll see people clumsily trying to slide or surf down them.
Beware – it gets windy, and a little cold! Bring a windbreaker and be prepared for all sorts of change in temperature as you make it down to the water and then hike back to where you began.
Want to level up your Maspalomas visit?
Look no further than a camel riding excursion in the desert. Wait, are we really in Spain?
We climbed dunes and at most points felt like we had the place to ourselves. Few backpackers stay in Maspalomas due to the fact that there are no hostels; rather, there are only Airbnbs and many resorts that attract German and British tourists in the 40-65 range.
Follow the hostel trail to link up with other travelers of the backpacker type.
The weather is better in the south of Gran Canaria.
On day one, we drove from Las Palmas (the biggest city on Gran Canaria, located in the north) halfway around the island to Puerto de Mogan, a port town on the south coast where, sure enough, the sun was shining and temperatures were up to 25C/75F. We were so glad to have left the clouds and gloom in Las Palmas behind!
Although touristy, Puerto de Mogan has some lovely architecture and whitewashed buildings with splashes of bright colors and flowers hanging everywhere. The town has a nice bay where you can swim any time of year if you’re ready for some cold Atlantic waters.
Want to add a tropical sparkle to seeing Mogan?
Book an easy snorkeling trip into those clear blue waters!
Keep in mind that the beautiful warm coasts of Gran Canaria make some of the best places to visit during winter, as you will find the Gran Canaria coast to be some of the sunniest places in the EU from December to March.
Find your perfect starry night sky in a mountain village like Tenteniguada.
There’s no better place to look at the stars than in the mountains. Check out this photo from Tenteniguada, a tiny town where we spent a night at Black Pig Hostel.
The islands are steeped in Spanish history.
It’s impossible to be in the Canary Islands and not learn about how these islands near Morocco came under Spanish rule. When you realize the value they provided to traders in the 1600s, you realize the Spanish were some brilliant people.
The location of the Canary Islands allowed them to serve as the gateway to the Americas and to Africa. Christopher Columbus even stopped there before his voyage to the New World! We also learned that petrol is cheaper in the Canaries (when compared to the rest of Europe, they said).
The “Old Town” of Vegueta in Las Palmas is rich in Spanish colonial architecture, cathedrals and small lanes that now house cafes, museums and galleries.
The best views are the ones off the highways in Gran Canaria’s southwest.
Take road GC-200, for example. This road covers the southwest quarter of Gran Canaria, while highways GC-1 and GC-2 serve the rest of the island as smooth 4-lane highways that anyone could drive on.
GC-200 is full of blind turns, sharp descents, switch-backs and dangers of rocks falling. It’s worth the challenge, though, as this is where you’ll find the Azulejos, colorful rock formations that look nearly rainbow, and views down valleys that proved better than any hike we found.
The roads to Agaete, while driving northbound, had views of a range of mountains known as Dragon’s Back, a series of sharp jagged formations rising into the sky.
Don’t have time for a road trip?
No worries, as a buggy drive tour will get you those rugged mountain views in no time.
You might wind up in a sea of Spaniards dressed up in costume for Carnival.
By arranging our trip to Las Canarias in February, we didn’t even look into when the Carnival celebrations would begin, but we landed on one of the first days of the festivities.
As we made our way into the Old Town of Las Palmas, we passed men dressed in drag, people dressed as jellyfish, chants of “NOOOO, NO TENGO FRIIIIIO,” live music in the streets, beers in the streets, drunk revelers in the streets and dancing in the streets.
What a scene. Too bad we had left our costumes at home!
Should you visit Gran Canaria?
Gran Canaria’s landscapes left us intrigued and mystified, from desert dunes to pebble beaches to green sweeping hills and farmland to volcanic cliffs. Although there is no clear backpacking route, the challenge is open to make your own.
Hostels are not hard to come by, but it pays to look into which type of place each destination is, whether ‘quiet beach with no grocery store within 5 miles’ or ‘private home turned hostel in village of 500 on a mountain.’ We were never far from civilization, but at times we felt worlds away.

What makes this destination special is what it offers to all kinds of travellers, from outdoor activity lovers and nature enthusiast to those looking for an escape from the busy life.

Public transportation is considered as the best way to reach your destination when you’re on a budget. Thanks to its extended bus lines, Gran Canaria provides a Bus service that takes you everywhere on the island.
If you are arriving at the LPA airport, then you can simply hop onto a bus, located outside the departure level of the main terminal.

Mountain scenery of exceptional beauty, long golden sandy beaches, historical sights, water sports and a temperate stable climate 365 days a year made Gran Canaria a favorite holiday destination for thousands of tourists for many years.
1. Roque Nublo Peak
Roque Nublo is a basalt cliff of about 80 meters, the top of which is at an altitude of 1,813 meters above sea level. The rock was a shrine of the ancient inhabitants of the island: its shape resembles the silhouette of the supreme ruler and guardian who guards the island.
To reach the summit, hikers have to climb a winding path. But this difficult road is worth the effort – the views from above are amazing. Roque Nublo has been one of the symbols of Gran Canaria since ancient times.
Not far from the rock there is one of the picturesque lakes formed by a dam.
2. Dunes of Maspalomas
In the south of Gran Canaria there is a small desert of amazing beauty with golden sand. It stretches along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean and covers an area of 400 hectares. The dunes of Maspalomas have been declared a natural reserve. They can be crossed by camel or on foot. This is the warmest place in the archipelago.
In the western part of the dunes, there is another attraction – the old lighthouse of Maspalomas, built in 1890. Its height is 65 meters.
3. Port of Puerto Mogan
The fishing village, also known as “miniature Venice”, enchants with its old streets, a network of picturesque canals with bridges, bright Mediterranean-style houses no higher than 3 floors.
It is easy to get lost among the bougainvillea in cozy bars and cafes on the pier. And in the evening you can walk along the beach, admiring the sunset.
4. Teror village
This village in the heart of the island is the most beautiful on the island! Its cobbled streets are lined with old houses with traditional carved wooden balconies, some dating back to the 16th century.
The main treasure of the village is the Basilica de Nuestra Señora del Pino, built in the 18th century and dedicated to the patron saint of Gran Canaria, Madonna del Pino. Inside, the basilica is decorated with paintings and sculptures, the most famous of which is the statue of the Virgin Mary, carved from wood.
And on Sunday mornings, a colorful local market opens in Teror with the freshest products and delicacies.
5. Playa de Las Canteras
In the capital of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, there is the best urban beach in Europe – almost a kilometer long, surrounded by a natural reef. This place is ideal for a beach holiday, as well as various city festivals, holidays and the annual Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Carnival.

It is also located in the capital of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The narrow streets of the old quarter are over 500 years old. The conquistadors who founded the city, warriors, pirates and travelers walked along these bridges. Their stories have left a mark in every corner of this place. Columbus stayed in the governor’s house during his famous travels, it now houses a museum named after him. Otherwise, it is also called the Museum of the Age of Discovery.

Archaeological excavations have established that Gran Canaria has been inhabited for three thousand years. The oldest finds date back to 800 BC. e. The first written references to the Canaries and Gran Canaria date back to the 1st century BC. Pliny the Elder and Pomponius Mela describe the mention of the amazing islands by the Moorish crawl Yuba II, who visited them in 40 BC. In the same ancient writings, for the first time, the name of the islands of Canaria is found, which they received because of the unusually large dogs that lived on the islands.
Dogo Canario
The original inhabitants of Gran Canaria were called Canaries, their
the origin is not exactly known, but the version about their relationship with the Berbers is popular.
However, there are more exotic versions, as if the canaries and guanches are
descendants of the Atlanteans, the people who inhabited the lost Atlantis. But this version is
doubts, since the indigenous people did not know how to build boats, and their tools
were made from stones.
The capital of ancient Gran Canaria was located in the city of Agaldar, the local population was divided into several groups ruled by leaders. As a result of the war, one of the leaders of Gumidafe subjugated several groups and became the supreme ruler of Gran Canaria, but over time, two kingdoms formed on the island: Telde and Agaldar. They lasted until the conquest of Gran Canaria by the Spaniards.
Galdar excavations
The discoverer of the Canaries was a navigator from
Genoa Lancellotto Maloncelli, after whom the neighboring island of Lanzarote is named.
But the first expedition, officially documented, took place in
1341, when the Portuguese visited the Canaries.
Pope Clement VI

Catholic bishops in Telda to convert local natives to
Christianity. At first, this process went peacefully, but interest in the slave trade and

trust of local residents.

Gran Canaria resisted the Spanish until 1478. June 24 to Gran Canaria
landed a Spanish squadron under the command of Juan Rejon, when peaceful
the attempt to conquer the island failed, the war began. Canaries courageously
resisted, waging guerrilla warfare and not engaging in open battles. But
Spears and stones were powerless against swords and guns.
The last ruler of Analdar was captured by Alonso
Fernandez de Lugo and sent to Spain, where he was converted to Christianity,
after which he was returned to his homeland and they tried to use him to convince
the local population to surrender to the Spaniards.
Gran Canaria fell in 1483 due to epidemics
contagious diseases that the Spaniards brought from the mainland, the natives did not have
immunity to viruses. By 1500, the local population had practically disappeared: many
chose to commit suicide, some were sold into slavery, some died from
diseases.
By the beginning of the 16th century, about three thousand
human. The situation changed only in the middle of the 19th century, when Queen Isabella II
declared the Canary Islands a special economic zone.
Since 1912, Gran Canaria has received its own government, since 1927 it has become a separate province. Since 1982, Gran Canaria has become part of the autonomous community of the Canary Islands, and Las Palmas is one of the two capitals. The government of the Canary Islands moves every four years.

Geography
Gran Canaria is part of the Canary archipelago and is located 210 km west of the southern coast of Morocco in the Atlantic Ocean. The neighboring islands are Tenerife to the west and Fuerteventura to the east. Gran Canaria has a round shape with a diameter of about 50 km. The coastline is 236 km.
Like all the Canary Islands, Gran Canaria is an island of volcanic origin. About 80% of the island’s area (1000 km²) was formed during the Miocene period between 14 and 9 million years ago. The second cycle of landscape formation (100 km²) falls between 4.5 and 3.4 million years ago, during which the main mountain peaks were formed. The last period of formation began about 2.8 million years ago and continues to this day. The last volcanic eruptions occurred about 3500 years ago. The highest point is the extinct volcano Pico de las Nieves (1949 m) in the center of the island. Mount Roque Nublo (1813 m) is considered one of the symbols of Gran Canaria.
Due to its geographic and climatic diversity, as well as the richness of its flora and fauna, Gran Canaria is also called “a continent in miniature”. The island is divided into 14 zones with different microclimates. Mountain landscape dominates in the center of the island. Among the mountains are arid valleys ( Barrancos ) leading all the way to the coast. During heavy rains, strong streams of water sometimes form in them, therefore, in populated areas, the valleys are usually strengthened.
Climate
Gran Canaria is located in the area of the trade winds, which penetrate the Northern Hemisphere from the northeast. They are delayed by mountain ranges and, as they rise, sometimes lead to heavy precipitation on the northern slopes, most often in the form of fog. This is due to the arid climate in the south of the island and more humid in the northern part. The aridity of the southern part is also exacerbated by winds from the Sahara. These winds are called Kalima and carry dust from the desert. Sometimes they lead to sandstorms, accompanied by an increase in air temperature up to 50 °C.

Flora
Vegetation Roque Nublo
Under conditions of constant exposure to the trade winds, the north of the island is dominated by laurel forests, dominated by Canary laurel, fetid koteea and Indian perseus. Also in the northern regions grow Erica tree and Canary bell – one of the symbols of the archipelago. Due to the intensive exploitation of natural resources, the area of laurel forests has decreased significantly in recent years. In the highlands, pine forests predominate, consisting mostly of Canarian pines.
The vegetation of the southern part of Gran Canaria is adapted to a dry climate. The sparse vegetation cover characteristic of the semi-desert consists mainly of plants of the Euphorbiaceae family (for example, Canary Euphorbia), as well as thick-leaved representatives of the bruise genus. Pine bruise is endemic to the island of Gran Canaria.
Administrative and political structure
Gran Canaria is divided into 21 municipalities:

In 2011, 850 thousand people live on the island. In terms of population, Gran Canaria is in second place after Tenerife. The capital of the island, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, which is home to more than a third of the population of the island (383 thousand people, in the agglomeration of more than 600 thousand people), is the largest city in the archipelago and the administrative center of one of the two provinces of Spain in part of the autonomous community of the Canary Islands – the province of Las Palmas.
As in the rest of the archipelago, the main body of government is the Cabildo. According to the results of the 2011 elections (inhabitants of the island take part in the vote), the cabildo (consul) of Gran Canaria is a member of the People’s Party, José Miguel Bravo de Laguna.
History
Main article: History of the Canary Islands
Prehispanic period
Archaeological finds have shown that the Canary Islands were inhabited no earlier than 3000 years ago. The oldest finds date back to around 800 BC. e., but exact information is not available.
Kingdoms of Agaldar (dark green) and Telde before the conquest of the island by the Spaniards
The first mention of the Canary Islands dates back to the 1st century AD. Pliny the Elder and Pomponius Mela called them “the islands of those in a hurry to happiness.” Pliny refers to the descriptions of the Moorish king Yuba II, who undertook a journey to the archipelago in 40 BC. e .. In the same text, the name Canaria is first found (presumably the name of the island of Gran Canaria). Pliny the Elder believes that the name of the island was given because of the large number of large dogs on the island. Two dogs were taken by Yuba to his homeland (the territory of modern Morocco), and then got on the coat of arms of the Canary Islands.
The indigenous people of the Canary Islands are collectively called the Guanches, but each island had its own tribal names. Canarians lived in Gran Canaria. The origin of the Guanches is not exactly known, the most popular version of the relationship with the Berbers. Since there are no iron rocks in the Canary Islands, the Guanches were forced to make tools from stone.
The early capital of the Guanches was Agaldar (now Galdar). In the pre-Hispanic period, the indigenous population of Gran Canaria was divided into several groups, each of which was headed by a leader. One of the chiefs, Gumidafe, started a war for his supremacy, which led to the submission of smaller groups to him, and proclaimed himself the ruler of Gran Canaria. His son Artemy Semidan strengthened his position as the sole ruler of the island. After his death, the island was divided between his sons into two kingdoms – Agaldar and Telde – which lasted until the time of the conquest of the Canary archipelago by the Spaniards.
Conquest of the islands by the Spaniards
The Genoese Lancellotto Maloncelli, who gave the name to the island of Lanzarote, is considered the discoverer of the Canary Islands. But the first official document confirming the fact of the Portuguese expedition to the islands is dated 1341. A bull of Pope Clement VI dated November 7, 1351 convenes the formation of a Conference of Catholic Bishops in Telda with the aim of converting the local population to Christianity. At the same time, an attempt was made to peacefully convert with the help of merchants from Mallorca, who were also interested in business contacts with the Canaries. At 139In the year 3, the Seville flotilla, which aroused Spain’s interest in goods from the Canaries, including the slave trade, attacked the archipelago. In this regard, the attempt to convert to Christianity in Gran Canaria failed, because the indigenous population could no longer distinguish between the peaceful Majorcan settlers and the Seville conquerors and resisted all outsiders.
The Spanish conquest of the Canary Islands began in 1402. The inhabitants of Gran Canaria successfully resisted the invaders until June 24, 1478, when a huge Spanish squadron led by Juan Rejon landed on the northeastern coast of the island. The Guanches were defeated and gave the northeastern part of the island into the hands of the conquerors. The new capital of Gran Canaria was the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Gradually, the island was completely captured by the Castilian crown. Agaldara’s last guanartemé, Tenesor Semidan, was captured by Alonso Fernandez de Lugo. Tenesor was sent to Spain, where he was baptized under the new name of Fernando Guanartemé, and upon his return to Gran Canaria became a reliable ally of the Spaniards. The native population finally surrendered in 1483.
The culture of the Guanches was practically lost because of the great loss of life, because of the ban on it after the conquest, but also partly because most of the Canarians took great interest in the Spanish culture.
Population migration
The attack of Dutch pirates on Las Palmas in 1599
The number of settlers in the Canary Islands during the period of the Spanish conquest turned out to be quite large compared to the indigenous population. However, the islands were still sparsely populated, as America seemed more attractive. By the beginning of the 16th century, less than three thousand people lived in Gran Canaria. Due to the active spread of sugar cane plantations on the island, there was an influx of immigrants from the Iberian Peninsula and the importation of slaves from Africa. By the middle of the century, the population of Gran Canaria had grown to 8,000. But by the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th century, the population had fallen to 6,000 due to pirate attacks in 1590s, epidemics, poor harvests, and population exodus after the end of the sugar boom.
At the end of the 17th century, about 22,000 people lived in Gran Canaria. The reason for the rapid growth was the transfer of the economy to winemaking, which is mainly export-oriented. Population growth continued into the 18th century. However, a large number of Canarians emigrated to America. Immigrants from the Canary Islands who settled in the area of Louisiana, Cuba, Puerto Rico and Venezuela were nicknamed isleños (“islanders”). Canary culture showed more influence on Latin American countries, but many elements of South American culture were also entrenched in the Canaries.
History from the 19th century to the present day
In 1852, Queen Isabella II declared the Canary Islands a special economic zone, which led to economic growth again.
In 1821 the archipelago was declared a Spanish province with its capital at Santa Cruz de Tenerife. However, Las Palmas also fought for the title of capital, as a result of which, from 1840 to 1873, the archipelago was divided into western and eastern parts. At 19In 12, the Cabildos Law was passed, according to which each of the islands received its own government – the cabildo. In 1927, the Canary Islands were divided into two provinces, Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Las Palmas, with capitals of the same name. Since 1982, the Canary Islands have been one of the 17 Autonomous Communities of Spain, with two capitals Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Las Palmas. At the same time, the head of the Canarian government moves every four years.
Demographics
Gran Canaria is home to 40% of the total population of the Canary Islands. In 2011, 850,39 people lived on the island1 person, of which 49.8% are men and 50.2% are women. Most of the population is concentrated in the capital (383 thousand people) and adjacent municipalities.
Age structure:
under 14 – 14.97%
15 to 64 years – 70.58%
over 65 years old – 13.55%
The proportion of the foreign population is 9.2% (78,068 people). At the same time, in the first place are immigrants from Germany (more than 9 thousand), who move to a warmer climate after retirement. They are followed by people from Morocco, Colombia, Great Britain, Italy, Norway and Argentina.

Economy
The main economic sectors in Gran Canaria are tourism and agriculture. The development of tourism has led to the growth of the construction sector. The agricultural sector has been losing its former importance in recent years. There are also a few light industry, cement and food production enterprises on the island. Commercial activity is also concentrated around the port of Puerto de la Luz in Las Palmas. It is the largest on the island and one of the largest in Spain. Passenger turnover in 2011 amounted to 800 thousand people, and cargo turnover – 17.3 million tons. [1]
Tourism
Tourism is the main economic activity in Gran Canaria. Due to the mild climate, the island attracts tourists all year round, mainly from the Nordic countries. Most tourists prefer a beach holiday, but in recent years there has been a trend towards more active types of recreation: rural tourism, golf tourism (there are 8 golf clubs on the island), water sports, hiking, cycling. The total number of tourists per year is 2.2 million people.
In addition to the capital, the main tourist areas are resorts in the southern part of the island. Playa del Ingles (“beach of the English”) with a natural beach 2700 m long, Maspalomas with natural reserves at the southernmost point of the island and San Augustin, located east of Playa del Ingles, form the largest tourist center in Spain. The beaches of Puerto Rico, Meloneras, Puerto de Mogan are also popular. The total length of beaches in Gran Canaria is 60 km. Gran Canaria is also a favorite holiday destination for sexual minorities.
Puerto Rico beach
Agricultural sector
Agriculture is also one of the most important sources of income in Gran Canaria. About 25,000 hectares of land have been allocated for agricultural needs, of which more than 11,000 hectares are used as pastures. [2] Mainly bananas and tomatoes are grown for export. Banana plantations are found mainly in the north of the island, while tomatoes grow in the southern part of Gran Canaria. Cereals, legumes and potatoes are also grown in the middle part of the island, but most often these products are intended for inland use.
Transport
Air
The island’s only airport is Gran Canaria Airport on the east coast, 20 km from Las Palmas. In terms of passenger traffic (10.5 million people), it is the largest in the Canary Islands, and the fifth in Spain. [3] The airport also houses a Spanish Air Force base.
Road transport
The main highways of Gran Canaria
The road network connecting the center of the island with the coast, the capital, the airport and the port has been built in accordance with the topography of the island. Along the east coast is the GC-1 motorway, which connects Las Palmas in the north to Puerto Rico in the south of the island. Its length is 71 km, which makes it the second longest in the Canary Islands. The GC-1 also passes through the airport and the major tourist resorts of Playa del Inglés and Maspalomas. The speed limit on the highway is up to 12 km/h.
The 32 km GC-2 motorway runs along the north coast from Las Palmas to Agaete. Highway GC-3 connects both main highways GC-1 and GC-2 bypassing the capital and has 13 km. Most of it passes through bridges and through tunnels, as this highway leads inland.
Secondary roads branching off major highways are identified by two numbers (eg GC-23). Local roads are named with three digits (GC-330). Only local roads pass through the sparsely populated western part of Gran Canaria.
Water transport
The port in Las Palmas is the main one in Gran Canaria. In 2011, the passenger turnover amounted to 800 thousand people, and the cargo turnover – more than 17 million tons. Private shipping companies Fred. Olsen Express and Naviera Armas offer regular flights from Las Palmas to other islands in the Canary archipelago and to Madeira. There are also ferry services to Tenerife from the village of Puerto de las Nieves in the municipality of Agaete. Ports Arguineguín and Arinaga specialize in the transportation of industrial goods.
Public transport
Public transport is represented primarily by an extensive bus network. The main passenger transport companies are the transport company Global (350 vehicles) and the municipal company Guaguas Municipales (230 buses). Most bus routes start or end in Las Palmas.
It is also planned to connect the north and south of the island with a railway. First section El Tren de Gran Canaria (TGC) will run from Arucas to Las Palmas and will be 15.1 km. The second line, 50.1 km long, will connect the capital with Maspalomas.
Attractions

Tenerife or Gran Canaria? Where is the best place to go? Pros and cons
Among these two largest and most famous islands of the Canary archipelago, most of the tourists go to Tenerife. What caused such a blind love of tourists? To answer this question, we decided to compare them according to 8 main parameters and came to the conclusion that millions of tourists are still not mistaken in their choice.
But we wouldn’t discount Gran Canaria either, especially if you’re the type of active hiker who loves hiking trails more than sour on the beach or chilling out in a bar.
Cost of the flight
Let’s start with the fact that getting to Las Palmas is more there are no direct flights from Russia. A flight with transfers is the only way out that will undoubtedly affect the comfort and duration of the trip.
Tenerife has two airports – north and south. The airport in the south receives international flights, incl. and Russian., and flights of local airlines arrive to the north. More flights – more competition and lower price (albeit slightly).
Score: Tenerife 1 — 0 Gran Canaria
Attractions
Tenerife is interesting not only for its picturesque nature, reminiscent of fantastic landscapes, but also for its many opportunities for active pastime. So here, at least, you can find three world-class objects:
Mount Teide and the national park around it
Loro Park (one of the best zoos in the world according to TripAdvisor)
the world’s best water park “Siam”
In addition, there are a considerable number of attractions and a rich excursion program.
In Gran Canaria, it will be interesting for tourists to explore the greener nature of the island, getting to know the picturesque landscapes, which are equally interesting both in the north and in the south. But we failed to single out really worthwhile objects in the list of attractions.
Score: Tenerife 2 – 0 Gran Canaria
Natural beauty
It is problematic to single out a clear favorite in this category.
Tenerife has a more rugged landscape due to the high volcano in the center of the island, but the island is not so green due to the fact that its southern part is surrounded by a mountain range. Greenery, forests – all this is more typical of the northern region, while in the south a rocky, mountainous landscape prevails, which, however, also has its advantages.
Gran Canaria is a green island, where there is enough rainfall and therefore the nature there is more beautiful and diverse. Mountain landscapes are also in abundance here and they are in no way inferior to those of Tenerife.

Beaches
etc). It is worth noting that all beaches are public and free. The fee is charged only for the use of sunbeds and umbrellas, which averages 3-6 €. Some beaches have toilets and showers that are also paid (the money goes to maintain cleanliness and pay employees). As for the entrance to the ocean, it is gentle anywhere on the island. The arrangement, the color of the sand and the protection from the waves distinguish the beaches from each other.
In Gran Canaria, the beaches are distinguished by golden and snow-white imported sand, in the north you can find gray sand of volcanic origin. There are more large and wide beaches here, but there are not so many of them.
It is difficult to single out a favorite in this comparison, so we give each side a point.
Score: Tenerife 3 -2 Gran Canaria
Resorts
Tenerife has 11 cities to offer tourists, while Gran Canaria has only 6 resort areas that can accommodate and provide quality service to visitors.
Score: Tenerife 4-2 Gran Canaria
Hotel infrastructure
Of course, demand creates supply, but the fact remains. If you make a request for any dates in the booking systems, Gran Canaria will always be inferior in quantitative terms, somewhere by 20%.
So the prices for a room at the beginning of the summer season in the resorts of Tenerife are:
3 * hotel – from 25 € / night.
4* — from 35 – 45 € / night including discounts and special offers.
5* — from 100 € / night.
You can find a studio in an aparthotel for 30-35 € / night.
But on the neighboring island the prices are as follows:
3* hotel – from 30-40 € / night.
4* — 55-60 €
5* — from 85 €
Apartments and studios can be rented from 50 € / night
Account: Tenerife 5-2 Gran Canaria
Price level
90 we resorted to the statistics of the Numbeo.com service, where you can get acquainted with the price index for basic consumer products anywhere in the world. According to the collected statistics, prices in Las Palmas are noticeably cheaper than in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. This is most likely due to the large number of tourists who are willing to initially pay more.
Score: Tenerife 5 -3 Gra Canaria
Conclusions
For the average tourist, Tenerife is the preferred option, as its infrastructure is more tailored to the needs of the tourist. There are world-class attractions, more hotels and resorts. Everyone will find something to their taste here. From the point of view of its remarkableness, this island is definitely better than others for those who travel to the Canary Islands for the first time and you can’t argue with that.
But independent tourists who go to the Canary Islands not for the first time, because of the chic climate and for a long time, it makes sense to look at Gran Canaria. There are no less walking tours than in Tenerife. Landscapes are not inferior, and sometimes even superior. The price level is noticeably lower, the climatic conditions are similar. Nature is greener, there are fewer tourists. Therefore, this island should not be discounted either.

Las Palmas de Gran Canaria , in addition to a wonderful holiday destination, is also one of the largest ports in the Atlantic Ocean. The city was founded in 1478 by monks belonging to the Order of the Catholic Queen Isabella. Walking around the city, you will be able to observe the beautifully preserved historic center with typical cobbled narrow streets and characteristic Canarian buildings in the Vegueta quarter. On Piazza Santa Anna you will find the most beautiful Cathedral, the informative Canaries Museum, where you will get acquainted with archaeological exhibits, and the incredibly beautiful House of Columbus, where you will get acquainted with the evidence of the stop of this famous navigator in Gran Canaria and the role of the Canary archipelago in the discovery of America.
In just one day, you can admire the main sights of the center of Gran Canaria. You can also see all the charm of the architecture of the countryside if you visit the interior of the island of Gran Canaria.
Walking through the town of Arucas, located among the banana plantations on the slope of the volcano, will give you an indelible impression, especially if you look at the magnificent architectural monuments. Here is the Gothic Cathedral of St. John the Baptist built in 1976 a student of Gaudí. Nearby is the village of Teror with the Chapel of Our Lady of Del Pino. This place rightfully bears the name of one of the most beautiful places on the island.
And the town of Agaete, the prettiest of the northern cities of Gran Canaria, is located in a green, fertile area. There you will find a small botanical garden – Huerto del as Flores.
The picturesque villages of Artenara, Tejeda and Ayakata are located on steep slopes with stunning landscape. The villages of Santa Lucia, Artenara and Fataga are located in the south and are surrounded by the greenery of palm groves. In the cities of Telde and Galdar, the most interesting archaeological monuments are still preserved, because. in ancient times, these cities were the capitals of the pre-Hispanic settlements of the Guanches.
In the area of San Juan there is an old church from the 14th century, and it is probably one of the oldest churches in Gran Canaria. In its architecture you will find an indescribable gilded wooden Flemish altar from the 16th century. It’s worth a look: the image of Christ in the center is made from corn cobs, which were donated by the Indians from Mexico. Interestingly, inside the church there is a painting by Vicenzo Carducci, a famous Italian artist.
But Gran Canaria is famous not only for historical monuments and architectural masterpieces – this island has a huge number of different parks, gardens and entertainment complexes that simply amaze the imagination.
For all nature lovers, the Botanical Garden of Viera y Clavijo is a must. It lies in the central part of the island, near the town of Tafira Alta, a 10-minute drive from Las Palmas. Most of it is located in a very picturesque area, along the steep gorge of the Barranco de Guiniguada. The garden was founded back in 1952, it covers an area of 27 hectares. Its creator is the Swedish botanist Erik Sventenius, who worked on the project until his death in 1973. He dreamed that in this botanical garden, all the unique plants of the Canary Islands were collected. Particularly interesting are the Garden of the Islands, the Macronesian Garden, the Garden of Cacti and Succulents, and the greenhouses of the Hidden Garden. The Fountain of the Wise Men is also impressive, with a map of the flora of the Canary Islands located around it.
One of the most popular theme parks on the island is Palmitos Park or Palm Park. This is a huge zoo and at the same time a botanical garden, which is located in the south of the island, 10 km from Maspalomas, it occupies more than 20 hectares. The park was founded back in 1978 and originally it was conceived as a reserve for breeding rare birds and plants – it is the birds that now make up its main collection. More than 150 species of birds live here, with the participation of which unforgettable performances are held daily: parrot shows, spectacular performances with birds of prey and exotic birds. Also in the park there is a butterfly house, a pirate island, an aquarium, a cactus garden, an orchid garden. As well as a large dolphinarium, one of the best in Europe, where you can even swim with dolphins.
In the western part of the island, in the town of San Nicolas de Tolentino, there is another interesting park – the cactus park Cactualdea Park. Here, on an area of 15,000 square meters, more than 1,200 species of cacti, imported from various countries of the world, have been collected. Cacti impress with their diversity, they are seated in very beautiful and picturesque groups. On the territory of the park there is a shop where you can buy various exotic plants. And just 10 km from the park, further along the road, there is Mirador del Balcon – a wonderful observation deck, from which the sheer cliffs of the coast and the neighboring island of Tenerife are perfectly visible.
The sand dunes of Maspalomas are one of Gran Canaria’s most publicized natural attractions. This is a protected area covering more than 400 hectares – it is also called “a piece of the Sahara” in the Canaries. Sand dunes are constantly changing, moving and therefore they are always different. You can only get around here on foot or by camel, and there are many hotels and golf courses around the park. In the very center of the reserve there is an oasis with palm trees and the La Charca lagoon, the water in which is salty and very warm. Along the coast and dunes, you can meet the unique giant lizard Gallotia galloti, which lives only in Gran Canaria.
Approximately 25 km from Maspalamos, in the town of Aguimes, there is an interesting park not for the faint of heart – this is Crocodile Park. Here you can see crocodiles, pythons, iguanas, tigers in a close to natural habitat. About 300 crocodiles live in the park and interesting shows are held every day with their participation.
Here, nearby, 12 kilometers from the resort of Playa de Ingles, is La Baranda – an amazing camel park. Here you can not only watch the camels and feed them, but ride these “ships of the desert”, walk through the exotic tropical garden, go to the mini-zoo and watch shows with their participation.
An interesting theme park Sioux City looks quite unusual and even unexpected on a tropical island – it is stylized as a cowboy town during the colonization of the American continent with all the necessary attributes of the “Wild West”. This park is located in the picturesque Canon del Aguila canyon, a few kilometers east of Maspalamos. Here, on an area of 320,000 square meters, you can see pubs and saloons, a cowboy church and a cowboy cemetery (not real), and artists dressed in cowboy hats and costumes regularly arrange interesting performances.
More than half have completed secondary schooling while many are professionally trained.
There are twenty-four fiestas, each dedicated to its patron saint. Vallehermoso, along with Ayungon and Zamboanguita, celebrates the Fiesta of San Isidro Labrador on May 15. Saint Isidore the Labourer, the patron saint of farmers, worked for the betterment of the poor and for animals. The town also takes regularly part in the Buglasan Festival, one of the highlights of the festival season of Negros Oriental, that takes place in Dumaguete City in the second week of October. Booths are set up by all towns and cities in Negros Oriental exhibiting their special products and tourist attractions. The festival, with street dancing contests and a float parade, goes on for a week. The Grand Fiesta Of Vallehermoso starts 13th to 15th of May its called Kanglambat Festival.
Its caves and sugar cane fields are soothing to the eye as well as to the soul. The picturesque landscape and the beach are the other attractions. The close proximity to three cities, all within a 29-mile radius, makes it convenient for the tourist as well.

This industry well lasted until the 18th century and was the force behind the population growth. While other regions were experiencing economic hardships, Vallehermoso was the engine that kept La Gomera afloat.
Unlike the prior that is visible from many parts of Vallehermoso, the cooled mass of magma remains hidden from the inland but out in the open from the sea. The only way to see it is by joining a boat excursion.
With towering cliffs surrounding the unspoiled gravel beauty, it is gaining popularity amongst holidaymakers. As marvelous as it looks, though, its choppy bay is only for experienced swimmers. Those who wish to take a dip can still do so in the seawater swimming pool built just beside it. Fitted with changing rooms, showers, and a snack bar, the complex is very much like a tiny resort. Here, visitors can swim, lounge around, and bask in the sun and all the glorious panoramas.
From here, Roque Cano is also visible. For those who would like to enjoy a tranquil setting without breaking a sweat, this place is a great option. Picnics are also allowed, so it’s a pleasant place to visit with family and friends.
Visit one of the island’s oldest church, Ermita de Santa Lucía, in the mountain-top Tazo. Not in that region but undoubtedly a must-visit is El Cercando. It’s in the center of the island and is a go-to for people who love pottery or want to it.
It comes with a lounge, dining area, and a well-furnished kitchen. The outdoor features of the property are also desirable. Travelers can relax on the seating area of the sun terrace while admiring the commanding La Fortaleza.
Literally split in half, the prior is a bar on one side and a seated restaurant on the other. Morcillas Caseras (homemade blood sausages), Albacore A La Plancha (Grilled Longfin Tuna), and Leche Agana (baked egg custard) are their best-sellers. On the other hand, the latter is a local favorite known for their huge pork chops, Costillas con papas y piñas (Ribs with potatoes and pineapples), Escaldón, fish soup, queso frito, and Leche Asada.
They have a wide range of local wines, inexpensive but delicious food, and the encompassing scenery is heart-stopping. Their must-trys include watercress soup, beef and goat stew, pork liver and mojo picón, almendrados, almogrote, goat cheese, and milk pudding with palm honey.

The worst weather the Canary Islands have seen in November in recent history has been the Delta tropical storm back in 2005, which has caused damage of hundreds of millions of euros. November 2018 has also seen some rough days towards the end of the month, so keep in mind that it is not usual for these sort of weather conditions to appear in Gran Canaria in November, although the south of the island is also more sheltered from the storms, compared to the north.
So if you don’t want to travel too far away, Gran Canaria and the Canary Islands, in general, are the safest option you have for a holiday of sun and warm weather towards the end of the year.

Out of the corner of an eye, one of us spots something moving close to the ground. Geese? In a vineyard? In this “Bio-Integrale” field, geese work nibbling away at the lower leaves, allowing grapes to aerate. And on the days the geese rest, draft horses and donkeys finish the task.
One recent survey showed that 58 percent of New Yorkers and 68 percent of Parisians base their wine purchases on sustainable practices.
They appear in order of least to most stringent.
We adhere to a checklist of nearly 200 farming best practices to minimize the use of chemicals and fertilizers, promote high biological diversity and healthy soils, and protect our delicate maritime ecosystem. We have invested in solar power and encourage native vegetation and wildlife to help balance and enhance our unique biome.”
Grapes ferment in naturally occurring yeasts with no chemicals or fermentation helpers, like sugar, allowed. No color or flavor enhancers, ubiquitous in conventional winemaking, are utilized. Natural winemaking produces more misses and taste outliers because standardization and uniformity of vintage years are not the goals. The true expression of the grape is.
His process incorporates enhanced natural fertilizers, crop rotation, and holistic animal and plant considerations. Sometimes derided for fringe/questionable practices like planting with moon cycles and burying “teas” in cow horns, Biodynamic farming has proven to be one of real value. Over 800 wine producers in more than 20 countries have earned the Demeter certification.
Children are more susceptible to these poisons and can easily suffer severe developmental damage.
At Francie, a Michelin-starred Williamsburg hotspot, maître d’ Erica Cantley told Worth, “We’re in Brooklyn where a lot of diners are looking for organic, Biodynamic, or even orange wines. But none of the wines are on our list because of this. It’s a bonus. Their quality is the reason.” Francie isn’t unique. Many restaurants don’t highlight their ethical wines, but staff will know and probably be delighted to tell you.

The mysterious resort attracts with its magnificent nature, volcano, marvelous black beaches and, of course, mild climate. The island is located at the latitude of the Sahara desert, and therefore it is always warm there, but it is never hot or cold. That is why Tenerife is called “the island of eternal spring”.

According to him, scientific research and statistics over the past 10 years allow us to conclude that geophysical activity, such as earthquakes and volcano activity, behaves relatively stable and is under control, but the frequency of meteorological disasters has increased significantly in recent years. This trend has been manifesting in the Canary Islands since the early 00s in the form of sudden heat waves, strong winds and frequent storms.

Although many people refer to them just as El Cotillo beach, there are actually many more than just one beach around the village (Playa del Cotillo if you are Spanish or spiaggia El Cotillo if Italian).
Just wonderful, natural, unspoiled beaches with lovely sand and clear water.
Follow that road through the village and past the Cotillo Beach Hotel (on your right). After another 500 metres the road turns 90º left and the runs along the coast behind the beaches. The most popular la Concha Beach is opposite the Azzurro restaurant with its own car park behind it.

They are some of the most popular nudist beaches in Fuerteventura Canary Islands.
A separate item on this list is beautiful, picturesque and incredibly numerous beaches of all types, shapes and sizes. Moreover, due to the fact that the country includes several islands, beach tours to Spain are in demand throughout the year. 
He deserved such unprecedented popularity due to a number of factors. 
This relatively small beach (its length is about 500 meters) is famous for its amazingly clear, azure water, the finest “powdery” white sand and picturesque landscapes. 
The eastern section is ideal for active beach lovers in Spain, in particular for sailing, water skiing and paragliding. 
The various bays and beach areas are separated by rocky cliffs with low elevation, which means that on the beach you can enjoy different bays with a bit more privacy . From here, you can also see Lobos Island and Fuerteventura Island while swimming in the turquoise waters. 
In this case we have San Sebastian beach , which has always been considered a good, quality beach, ideal for families. 
This is one of those perfect beaches for relaxing, with clear water, clean sand and not too crowded even in high season. Definitely the perfect place to explore Mallorca. And it has a zone for those who wish to practice nudism. 
At their service is a pretty yacht port, a diving center, a kayak rental and several luxurious seafood restaurants. Velvet white sand, light turquoise sea and views of the Begur castle, built in the 11th century, create a special romantic and relaxed atmosphere “for the elite”. 
This stretch of coastline is especially exposed to the winds, attracting hundreds of surfers, and on windless days it’s perfect for families. Playa Bolonia, crowned with a giant dune 30 meters high and washed by the emerald waters of the ocean, is one of the most beautiful wild beaches in Spain. Picturesque pine trees, natural pools, a sea of fish taverns and whale watching excursions will make a lasting impression. 
However, this does not bother vacationers – high ocean waves always attract surfers, and in the dunes you can ride a camel or sand sleigh. 
This is a favorite place for romantic meetings of the islanders, who, however, prefer not to swim, but to meet the sunset in a tavern on the shore, eating stewed octopuses and admiring the rocks, dubbed by them “crocodile teeth”. Hidden in a protected natural area, Benijo has no lifeguards or other amenities, but is very popular with nudists and surfers, because it has the “right” waves, a flat entrance and a bottom without stones. When going here, it is recommended to listen to the forecast: at high tide, it completely disappears from view. 
Despite the glory of the party center, Barceloneta is annually awarded the “blue flag” of quality, the entrance to the sea here is long and gentle, and the fine sand is mostly clean and golden. 
This is a strip of almost 1.6 km of pure coarse sand, filled to capacity in summer. As with the rest of the Costa Brava, the water is always cool here, and the bottom is quite uneven in some areas, so it is recommended to be careful when swimming with children. In addition to a whole series of “chiringuito”, that is, beach bars, there is everything for a carefree pastime of holidaymakers: rental of umbrellas and sun loungers, rental of yachts, jet skis and catamarans, volleyball courts and ice cream kiosks. 
In summer, catamaran trips, surfing, yachting, diving courses, etc. are offered.

In addition to swimming, active beachgoers can go wakeboarding, windsurfing and snorkeling, ride a boat or catamaran, or try parasailing. 
It is located at a distance from major cities and is surrounded by impressive dunes, along which hiking trails are laid.

Those who are looking for peace and comfort rest here. Renovated for the 1992 Olympics and beautifully equipped, it is annually awarded the “blue flag” of cleanliness. The descent into the sea is gentle, the bottom is sandy, there are no waves thanks to the breakwaters, there are many playgrounds – it is not surprising that this part of the coast is so popular with travelers with kids. Fans of outdoor activities also have something to do: there are playgrounds for playing volleyball, football, basketball, rental of catamarans, jet skis, diving and surfing equipment.

The long shallows and the absence of waves make this place optimal for bathing kids, so lovers of silence choose other coastal areas. When sunbathers head home, youngsters flock here, craving celebrity shows of all sizes and partying until dawn. 
The “Celebrity Coast” is a strip of soft white sand, bordered by a dense pine forest on one side and a tourmaline sea on the other. Life here is in full swing: elite parties thunder, trendy DJs play, and exclusive restaurants send delicacies and cocktails directly to the yachts of the “star” clientele scattered off the coast. Another part of the bay, due to its gentle slope, shallow water and the absence of waves, is loved by families with children. While the children are splashing in the play area, adults ride catamarans and boats, take diving or surf lessons and just soak in the most salty water of the Balearic.
