Lanzarote

A vacation on the volcanic island of Lanzarote has something for everyone, from singles to couples, and it's also an excellent choice for a family vacation. Lanzarote vacations can be as varied as the island's resorts, ranging from peaceful sophistication to nonstop fun.

For a busy resort, consider Playa Blanca, Costa Teguise, or Puerto del Carmen, the liveliest of the bunch. It's the place to go for the best nightlife on the island, where you can relax on Playa Grande's white shimmering sands and choose from an endless selection of restaurants and bars. Eco-resorts and smaller boutique hotels can be found along the coast and inland on Lanzarote's tranquil and opulent side.

Lanzarote's year-round warm weather makes it ideal for beach vacations. As a great winter sun destination, the average temperature is 21°C, making it ideal for those looking for a cheap getaway during the months of November through March. The island's location (four hours from the UK) means you don't have to spend hours in the air to enjoy the sunshine of a long-haul destination.

Lanzarote has a wide range of lodging options, from cheap self-catering apartments to luxury suites in five-star hotels, and all-inclusive options are available in all of the island's resorts. Lanzarote is a fantastic year-round vacation spot with options for travellers of all means.
