La Geria
How can the dry island of Lanzarote produce its excellent sweet white wines? The answer is the 'geria', a conical hole dug out of natural layers of volcanic gravel. This peculiar form of cultivation can be seen mainly in the central area of the island, in the section that goes from the Monumento al Campesino to Uga.
Papagayo Beaches
Papagayo is the crown jewel of the beaches of Lanzarote. A kilometre and a half of coastline that hosts several coves of great beauty. Its different beaches are separated by low altitude rocks. The landscape, its turquoise waters and its fantastic climate will make you fall in love.
Salinas de Janubio
The Janubio salt flats, in Lanzarote, are the largest in the Canary Islands and constitute a human landscape of high architectural and cultural value. Today they continue to produce the white gold that was essential to the island's economy until not many decades ago.
The town of Teguise
Located in the northeast of the island of Lanzarote, the town of Teguise was one of the first towns founded in the Canary Islands. Capital of Lanzarote until 1847, it preserves a remarkable set of buildings of great historical-artistic value. The castle of Santa Bárbara, now converted into a Piracy Museum, stands out; the Spínola Palace, located in a stately house from the 18th century; the old church of Guadalupe, and the convent of San Francisco.
Haría
Haría, in the north of Lanzarote, is located in the enchanting “valley of a thousand palms”, one of the best native palm groves of the Canary Islands. As the road enters the mountains, this oasis appears in the middle of the pure geology of the island: green lands and crops dotted by the white of the island's popular architecture.
Playa de Famara
In the northwest of the island of Lanzarote, the beach known as Famara beach stretches over more than five kilometers of golden sand. It is located within the Chinijo Archipelago Natural Park, between the fishing village of La Caleta de Famara and the base of the impressive Famara cliff. It unfolds all its beauty at low tide, when the water forms a thin layer on the sand and reflects the sky and the cliff like a gigantic mirror.
