Costa Teguise, Playa Blanca, Puerto Calero, Puerto del Carmen
Less than 100 miles from the coast of Africa, Lanzarote has a wonderful year round climate, not to mention glorious beaches, spectacular volcanic landscapes, pretty villages and a huge selection of options to wine and dine your way through your holiday.
Costa Teguise, with its choice of beaches, pretty market square, tapas bars, pavement cafés and wide choice of restaurants, has plenty going on, but retains a fairly relaxed, laid back atmosphere. For those who like to do a bit of holiday shopping, the island capital, Arrecife, is just a short bus ride away and a visit to the volcanic landscape of Timanfaya National Park is highly recommended.
Matagorda is an extension of the larger neighbouring resort of Puerto del Carmen. It has a fabulous large beach and two great areas of bars and restaurants.
Playa Blanca is a relatively peaceful resort situated on the south west corner of the island, but still with a good selection of cafés, bars and restaurants to choose from. There is a sandy beach, marina and a varied array of shops. From Playa Blanca, visitors can also take a day trip to the neighbouring island of Fuerteventura.
The small resort of Puerto Calero is centered round the fabulous marina, which is surrounded by a surprisingly wide array of cafés, smart bars, international restaurants and designer shops. The bright lights of neighbouring Puerto del Carmen are within easy reach by road, water taxi or a spectacular walk along the cliff tops.
Puerto del Carmen is Lanzarote's biggest and busiest resort. Lining the wide, sweeping beach of Playa Grande is the promenade, filled with a seemingly endless array of shops, bars and restaurants. The laid back harbour area is well worth a visit to sample the fresh fish restaurants and tapas bars, or simply to watch the sunset with a cocktail or two.
