Sus playas de arena oscura, formadas por la actividad volcánica, nos brindan excelentes vistas, relajantes y únicas.

De todas Las Canarias, Lanzarote es la isla más favorecida para la práctica del surf, en especial la playa de Famara, ideal para los principiantes debido a la calidad de sus olas. Es por ello que es sede de las más importantes escuelas de surf y cuenta con una atractiva oferta de surf hostel y surf camps.

Además de Famara, Lanzarote tiene playas con olas tanto para principiantes como para experimentados, cada una de ellas con spots de un altísimo nivel.

Los mejores lugares para surfear en Lanzarote – zona norte y oeste

En la Playa de Famara se dan cita surfistas de todos los niveles por contar con spots perfectos para la práctica de este deporte. El ambiente del pueblo es el típico del surf, alejado de la oferta turística de otros destinos en Las Islas Canarias y con opciones para aprender surf desde cero. Algunos de sus spots recomendados son el Codito, el Molino, el Bunquer, el Palo y el Papelillo.

También situada en la zona oeste de la isla de Lanzarote, Caleta Caballo nos ofrece picos rápidos con secciones tuberas; tiene fondo de roca y rompe en marea media. De difícil acceso, este spot es para los más experimentados.

Para los más experimentados, La Santa representa el desafío por dominar sus peligrosas olas, que son famosas en todo el mundo. El spot más popular, El Quemao, el Pipeline de Canarias, cuenta con olas huecas y fuertes, de gran intensidad, que abren tanto por derecha como por izquierda. Aquí se celebra el Quemao Class, evento anual que reúne a los mejores surfistas de Europa. Recomendada solo para surfistas expertos.

La izquierda de La Santa es otro de los spots recomendados de la zona; una ola corta y explosiva, que rompe de ambos lados. Por sus tubos perfectos que se forman sobre fondos de arrecife volcánico, los surfistas experimentados prefieren su bajada izquierda. Se recomienda el uso de escarpines para el ingreso al agua.

Un tanto alejada al norte, cerca de la playa de la Cantería, nos encontramos con Caleta del Mero, que brinda picos variables con secciones tuberas. Rompe en marea baja/media y tiene fondo de roca.

Los mejores lugares para surfear en Lanzarote – zona sur y este

El Golfo es un gran lugar para surfear en la isla de Lanzarote, en especial en los meses de verano. No obstante, las fuertes corrientes impiden nadar por lo que es necesario contar con mucha experiencia para surfear sus olas, que son muy rápidas y de extremo peligro. Esta playa tiene un color verde característico, debido a su formación volcánica.  

El Espino es una ola perfecta que ofrece tubos largos, con secciones huecas. Ubicado al este de la isla de Lanzarote, en Punta mujeres, es un spot solo para surfistas de nivel avanzado. Es de arrecife volcánico afilado, con poco fondo, por lo que es recomendable llevar escarpines.

Al norte de Punta Mujeres, en el municipio de Haría, están los Jameos del Agua, situados en el interior de un túnel volcánico. La ola de roca volcánica es una izquierda larga impresionante que puede alcanzar los 4 metros, perfecta para maniobras y tubos. Es de poca profundidad por lo que puede llegar a ser peligrosa para los más novatos.

Surf en Fuerteventura

Después de Tenerife, Fuerteventura es la segunda isla más grande de las Islas Canarias y un destino muy visitado en vacaciones, debido a sus más de 150km de playas encantadoras, perfectas para disfrutar del sol y de la brisa marina.   

Con sus numerosas olas de gran calidad que se despliegan en el litoral durante todos los meses del año y su arena blanca que forma parte del ambiente desértico y encantador, Fuerteventura es, también, un lugar perfecto para la práctica del surf en Canarias.     

Entre los muchos spots recomendados para el surf en Canarias, Fuerteventura cuenta con algunos muy destacados. Así, algunos surfistas van al norte, a Corralejo, frente a la Isla de Lobos, en busca de una ola potente y hueca, considerada la más grande de Islas Canarias, mientras que otros acuden en busca de la derecha de los alemanes.   

[symple_button url=»https://www.surfcanarias.com/es/escuela-surf-lanzarote/» color=»orange» size=»large» border_radius=»5px» target=»blank» rel=»» icon_left=»» icon_right=»»]Escuela de Surf en Lanzarote[/symple_button]

Los mejores lugares para surfear en Fuerteventura – zona norte

Como lo mencionamos, la derecha de Lobos es la ola más larga de las Islas Canarias. Aunque es poco habitual, puede ser la ola perfecta si se dan las condiciones adecuadas. Este spot es muy versátil con marea media y baja y es ideal para niveles intermedios y experimentados. Para llegar a ella es necesario partir por Ferry desde el puerto de Corralejo.  

En la zona norte de la isla, El Hierro es una derecha de clase mundial que rompe sobre un reef afilado, brindando tubos de gran calidad. Esta ola tiene dos picos que rompen sobre un lecho volcánico profundo. El pico principal es una ola de izquierda rápida y hueca, mientras que su derecha es corta y de calidad. Esta es una de las olas más visitadas para hacer surf en Canarias, especialmente entre los meses de otoño e invierno.

La derecha de los alemanes, antes llamada la derecha del legionario, es una ola clásica que rompe cuando pasa la izquierda del Hierro, una derecha rápida que nos es apta para principiantes. Es preciso tener cuidado con las fuertes corrientes cuando las olas son grandes.

Al salir de Corralejo, en la zona norte de la isla de Fuerteventura, nos encontramos con El Bristol, una izquierda muy potente con secciones complicadas que suelen surfear los locales.

Otros lugares ideales para el surf en Fuerteventura en la zona norte son La Generosa, Mejillones, La Caja, Punta Blanca, El Muelle del Cotillo y Esquinzo.

Los mejores lugares para surfear en Fuerteventura – zona sur

Surf en La Isla de La Graciosa

La recién reconocida octava isla de Las Canarias, La Graciosa, está ubicada al noroeste de Lanzarote y depende administrativamente de esta. Una isla de playas doradas y solitarias, La Graciosa es, tal vez, uno de los pocos lugares europeos alejados del turismo de masas y donde es posible respirar aire de serenidad.

La Graciosa también es un lugar espectacular para quienes buscan practicar buen surf en Canarias, ya que sus olas son potentes y recomendadas solo para surfistas de gran nivel. Al no ser apta para principiantes, esta isla no cuenta con ninguna escuela de surf ni alternativas de iniciación al surf.

Los mejores lugares para surfear en La Graciosa

La Graciosa y sus playas la convierten en una isla ideal para la práctica del surf.

Al sur de la isla de La Graciosa nos encontramos con La Francesa, una playa de arena blanca con olas de muy buena calidad. Sobre sus bajas de roca llega a romper una derecha larga y muy tubera, con muchas secciones perfectas.

Playa la francesa la graciosa

Al suroeste de la isla está Montaña Amarilla, una izquierda que sale cuando el mar entra grande del oeste. Los vientos fuertes hacen que el mar esté glassy casi siempre, con olas muy rápidas y tuberas. Llegar a esta playa caminando desde el pueblo suele ser muy pesado, pero la calidad de sus olas vale el esfuerzo.  

Por el lado noroeste de La Graciosa, cerca de la playa de Las Conchas, se encuentra la Baja del Ganado, un spot con olas muy potentes y difíciles, que rompen mejor de derechas. El tubo es corto pero explosivo, apto solo para expertos. Las mejores olas se encuentran en los meses de otoño e invierno.    

El Basurero es una derecha potente, que se suele surfear con marea baja y con vientos del sudeste. Le debe el nombre a que la ola rompe cerca de un basurero ubicado en la parte noroeste de la isla. Se accede a este lugar a través de una ruta entre volcanes, por un desvío al norte que conduce hacia la costa.

En La Graciosa, también es posible surfear en El Corral, una izquierda larga muy potente, que rompe sobre arrecife de rocas; El Alambre, que cuenta con varios picos interesantes; y Pedro Barba, con una izquierda que rompe perpendicular a la costa.

Datos de interés para el surf en La Graciosa

Say hello to Playa de las Americas

Playa de las Americas is a resort destination on the south coast of Tenerife. It’s particularly well-known for its nightlife, which centres around Veronicas Strip, the Starco Centre and the Patch.

Playa de las Americas is a great spot for watersports, ranging from jet-skiing to water skiing and paddle-boating. Spending a day on a glass-bottomed catamaran is also a fabulous way to see the island – both above and beneath the water – with dining and swimming included. Children will also love the two large water parks nearby – Siam Park Water Kingdom and Aqualand Cosa Adeje. Tenerife is perfect for shoppers, as it’s a tax-free destination.

Frequently Asked Questions

Playa de las Americas promises warm temperatures throughout the year – making it the perfect destination for sun-seekers. Winter is mild with temperatures above 20°C, although expect a bit of rain. Spring and autumn are warm with temperatures in the mid 20s, while summer is hot, with the thermometer regularly topping 30°C.

For family hotels, Playa de las Americas is a great choice. The beach itself has lots of restaurants, bars and entertainment for all the family. The Siam Waterpark is a kilometre and a half away – here you’ll be immersed in the Thai-themed pools, slides and décor. Thrill seekers won’t want to miss out on the 28-metre-high Tower of Power slide, one of 29 slides at the park. If it’s nightlife you’re after, book a hotel at Playa Troya. With its fine, golden sands and calm waters, it’s a relaxing spot by day, but comes alive at night. Head to Veronica’s strip for the most vibrant party atmosphere, where you’ll find nightclubs and bars serving cheap alcohol and playing drinking games. Hotels at Playa del Bobo will suit couples looking for something quiet and laidback. There are no watersports on offer here, meaning fewer visitors and families. With the fine, clean sands and gentle waters, it’s a great place to relax with a good book and soak up the sun. For surfers, hotels on Playa Honda are the place to go. Beginners can take lessons from the surf schools on the beach, and if you just want to watch there are plenty of restaurants, bars and cafes on the promenade that provide ideal viewing spots. Hotels on Playa del Camison provide something for everyone. It’s one of the quieter beaches in the area, with loungers, umbrellas and showers to make conditions comfortable. Located in a small bay, protected by wave breakers either side, it’s a great safe spot for families with children. There are also water activities you can try such as paddle boarding or pedal-boating.

Electrical Plugs In Norway: All About Buying The Correct Travel Adapter

September 2, 2022July 23, 2022 by Nicklas Iversen

You might have to use a travel adapter if you are visiting Norway from another country, but we also share the type of electrical plugs with many other countries. So which types of electrical plugs can you expect in Norway, and will you need a travel adapter to charge your electronics?

Norway mainly uses the electric plug type called Type F (Schuko) with 230 V voltage and 50 Hz frequency. These are compatible with electronics that use Type F, Type C and Type E. All other types need an adapter or even converter.

Who can use electronics in Norway without a travel adapter?

Most European countries with a few exceptions uses the same electrical plugs as we do in Norway. The only exception in Europe is the UK and Ireland, which have their own type of electric plug that is shared with some African and Middle-Eastern countries.

Some African countries also have the same types as the one we have in Norway. Refer to the map below to see a big list of all the countries that uses the same electrical plug types. Any country that is light blue or dark blue can use the electronic in Norway without a travel adapter.

Countries of the world, colored according to the main plug types in use. Illustration published with permission.

Some countries that can visit Norway without worrying about adapters are Germany, Spain, Sweden, Italy, France, Russia and more. All European countries also have the same voltage and frequency as Norwegian electronic plugs.

Countries that will need a converter to use the electrical plugs in Norway

All countries in both North American and South America, most countries in Africa, Australia and most Asian countries need an electric travel adapter to be able to charge their electric devices in a Norwegian electrical socket.

Using a charger without an adapter is considered very dangerous, even if the type does seem to fit into the socket. The reason is because of the different voltage and frequency, which in worst-case scenarios can cause the charger to overheat and catch fire.

Should you use an adapter or transformer?

To prevent disaster when charging your phone or camera when visiting Norway, make sure to pick up an adapter or transformer. An adapter is fine if you are using the charger for a short while, but more heavy electronic that is connected to the electrical outlet for more than a few hours should use a transformer instead.

I would advise against using an adapter when you are sleeping or not in the same building as the charger. This is because adapters are pretty safe, but do have some increased risk of malfunction and fire. So if you are close by, you will notice any potential problems early on.

That said, it’s very rare for adapters to have malfunctions, catch fire or anything like that, but you want to be on the safe side since fire hazards are serious business.

The transformers on the other hand are generally a bit bigger, but also safer. The also cost a little bit more, but it’s money well spent if you plan on using more heavy electronics or just want to feel more safe when charging your devices.

The adapter people from the US need when traveling to Norway

People from the US should buy a type A / Type B to Type F travel adapter.

The electric plugs from the United States and the rest of the Americas won’t fit the Norwegian electric sockets at all. They are also on the wrong frequency and voltage, so it’s super important to use an adapter or transformer.

The adapter people from the US need when traveling to Norway

People from the UK and Ireland should buy Type G to Type F travel adapter.

It’s also possible to buy an adapter that changes to type C, but these are more rare. Type C chargers will work at any Type F socket.

Where to buy travel adapters and transformers

You can usually pick up travel adapters at tourism shops or at the airport when you arrive, but these will be overly expensive. It will be much cheaper if you buy one from Amazon, Walmart or any other store that sell electronic before you leave your home country.

When buying a travel adapter, make sure that you buy one that also changes the voltage output, since this is different between Europe and the US. As mentioned earlier, you need 230 V voltage and 50 Hz frequency in Norway.

Bali Power Plug – Which Adapter you should carry?

In the 21^st century, we simply cannot live without electronic gadgets, especially when traveling. Our phones are essential for staying connected to friends and family, and a camera is important for many to capture the sights and memories made while on holiday. Aside from these essentials, each traveler has their own electronics they can’t live without, be this a hairdryer, electric razor, electronic toothbrush, straighteners…  the list goes on. Therefore, when preparing for a vacation, making sure that your plug fits the local outlet is essential. In this article, we’ll be looking at the power plugs and voltage that Bali uses and whether you’ll need a travel adapter for your electronic products.

Bali Power Outlets: The Basic Stats

In Bali, the voltage used is 230 volts and the standard frequency used is 50 HZ. Unlike most countries, Bali power plugs are of two varieties, type C and Type F. Type C is known as the standard European plug, and its socket is compatible with both E and F plug types. Socket type F is compatible with plug types C and E and is referred to as the ‘Schuko’ plug.  

Common Sockets Found in Bali

Plug Type C

Image source – https://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plugs-and-sockets/c/

The standard Euro plug otherwise referred to as ‘type C’ is a commonplace plug which is used throughout Europe. In fact, the only European countries that do not use this plug are the UK, Ireland, Malta, and Cyprus. The type C plug is also the most commonly used plug worldwide, therefore, if you’re a traveler from a country which uses the type C plug, so long as your country also uses the same voltage, you needn’t worry about purchasing an adapter when travelling to Bali.

The type C Bali power plug features two wires with two round prong that are 4mm in diameter and 19mm long. It is ungrounded and it is also unpolarized. The prongs of the plug are known to be quite flexible which means that they can fit into any socket with a contact range between 4.0 and 4.8mm contacts. This plug is typically reserved for applications involving less than 2.5 amps.

It is important to note however that while
type C plugs are incredibly commonplace, the use of type C sockets is not. This
is because the type C socket is ungrounded and is viewed as out of date
compared to its more modern socket types such as E, F, J, K, and N. In fact,
due to type C sockets being ungrounded, many countries have made use of them
illegal! So, why are type C plugs still so widely used? Well, as mentioned, the
prongs are flexible, meaning that they work perfectly with modern sockets such
as types E, F, J, K, and N.

Plug Type F

Another
widely used plug type in Europe is plug F, though its use is not as widespread
as that of the type C plug. Countries which commonly use plug type F include
Scandinavia, the Netherlands, Spain and Portugal, as well as large portions of
Eastern Europe. This plug type is most commonly called the ‘Schuko’ plug which
is a shortened version of the German word for ‘safety contact’: ‘Schutzkonakt’.
This is because the plug was created in Germany just after the World War One.

Visually, plug type F is very similar to
type C however it has two grounding clips. The prongs on a Schuko plug are
4.8mm in diameter and 19mm in length. Schuko plugs are unpolarized and they are
most commonly used in appliances that utilize no more than 16 amps. Type F
plugs can fit into type E sockets.

In regard to the type F socket, both type F
plugs and type C plugs can be successfully inserted. Type F sockets commonly
have a 15mm recess which means that part-inserted plugs won’t be a shock hazard.

Using Electrical Appliances in Bali: Voltage Adapter

If the voltage in your home country is in
the range of 220v to 240v then so long as your plug is type C or F, you can use
your appliances in Bali without needing a voltage adapter. If you’re not sure
about the voltage that your country uses, checking online is always a smart
idea. If you’re concerned about a particular appliance, you can find out the
input voltage of frequency by looking at the label that almost every electronic
appliance has. Ideally you are looking for a label which states ‘INPUT: 100-240,
50-60 Hz’ as this means your appliance is universal and is safe to use
worldwide. Many modern laptops, cameras, and cell phones operate in this way,
but it is still good to check to avoid frying your electronics.

Travelers from the United Kingdom don’t need
to worry about a voltage discrepancy in their appliances as Bali and the UK use
the same voltage of 230V. However, US travelers will need to use a voltage
converter on their appliances unless they are universal. This is because the
USA operates on a 120V system, far less than Bali’s 230V standard.

Bali Travel Adapters

Most European travelers are unlikely to
need an adapter to use their appliances in Bali. However, holidaymakers from
the USA, the UK, Japan, Australia, Malaysia, Canada, Singapore, and parts of
Africa will need to use a plug adapter in order to operate their electronics.

Luckily, if you find yourself caught out, many villas, hotels, and holiday rentals in Bali will have an adaptor on hand for you to use, but you can’t rely on this always being the case. Making sure you bring your own travel adapter is strongly advised. Some hotels have different sockets for international travellers which are nothing like Bali power plugs.

When selecting the correct travel adaptor
for use in Bali be sure to select a model that is designed to fit into a round
socket, as this is what Bali uses. A square plug will not fit into a round
socket, so steer clear of square plugs even if they state that they are
suitable for use.

When selecting the right adapter for you,
it is important to remember that a standard adaptor does not alter the voltage
of the mains electricity. This means that travelers whose countries use a
different voltage level, such as the USA, will need to purchase an adapter that
also includes a voltage adapter, or buy a voltage adapter separately to
safeguard their electronics from damage.

Adapters can be bought in Bali for as
little as $2 (RP20,000). However, if you’re renting a villa or staying in Bali
for a while, or if you’re a bit of a jetsetter, you might want to consider
investing in a universal multi-port travel adapter such as the one pictured
below. A product like this can help ensure that you’re never caught out when it
comes to powering or charging your electronics when abroad.

Most Verstatile Travel Adapter, Works in Bali Too

Conclusion

To quickly recap, Bali power plug operates on 230V electricity, and utilizes plug type C and F, and socket type F. If you’re a European traveler you might not require an adapter, but those in the UK and outside of Europe will likely need to invest in an adapter to use their electronics with Bali power plugs. US travelers’ electronic products will be designed to run on 120V, far less than Bali’s 230V output, meaning that a voltage converter will likely be required.

So, when it comes to travelling anywhere in the world, it is always worth researching the plugs, sockets, and voltage used in your destination. Taking the time to do so before you leave will help you avoid stress when you arrive, allowing you to relax and enjoy your holiday.  

You can purchase power plug adaptors at department stores in Bali for about Rp20,000 which is a bit over US$2. If you are taking several electrical appliances from home to Bali it might be worth considering buying just the one adaptor plug and having it fitted to a “home” power board of 4 outlets (see below) so you have available more convenient multiple power outlets to charge and power your appliances. Electrical equipment and appliances are generally risky buys in Bali as the warranty will probably not be honored once you get home and you will find that they aren’t that much cheaper in Bali either. An exception might be a cheap portable DVD player which will overcome the frustration of a hotel with only Indo TV programs available.

FAQs

Are Bali plugs the same as Australia?

No. They are not the same. Power Supply is the same, but you need to carry an adapter.

Does Indian Charger Work in Bali?

Yes. Indian Chargers work in Bali. But you need to purchase a converter or adapter.

Is Bali Plug the same as Thailand?

No. Thailand uses different plugs.

What Does Bali Power Plug Look Like?

Bali has Type C and Type F Sockets.

What is a SCHUKO connector?

“Schuko” (pronounced “Shuko”) is an AC power plug and socket system officially defined in the CEE 7/4 standard. The second name of the connector is type F .

This standard is most commonly found in the residential and commercial real estate sectors. nine0004

“Schuko” is an abbreviation of the German term Schutz kontakt (literally: “protective contact”). The term indicates that the electrical plug and socket are equipped with protective earth contacts in the form of metal clips.

The concept itself is a technical designation and most people do not know this term. Most often, sockets and plugs of this type are called euro connector .

Connectors (sockets and plugs) of the Schuko standard are designed and used in power supply circuits with a voltage of 230V and have a nominal current of 16A. nine0004

SCHUKO connector device

The Schuko plug is equipped with two round plugs with a diameter of 4.8 mm. for the electrical phase and zero, as well as two contacts at the top and bottom for grounding. The plug is inserted into an electrical outlet and connected to its contacts.

Schuko receptacles are made in a recess in the body, into which the corresponding plug of the equipment power cord is inserted. Such a socket can be installed inside the wall, on top of the wall (depending on the form factor), as well as in uninterruptible power supplies.
