Lanzarote:
Lanzarote is a typical example of a volcanic island. There are more than 300 craters on the island. Lanzarote is the easternmost island of the Canary Islands. It is located approximately 115 km from Africa, in the Atlantic Ocean and is approximately 795 km². The island is approximately 60 km long and max. 21 km wide.
The volcanoes of Lanzarote together form a unique landscape. The island is covered with different colors of lava that can be seen in the Timanfaya National Park. Man and landscape have succeeded in attuning to each other, creating harmony between architecture and agriculture.
Because Lanzarote has lava soil, the white wine gets a unique taste. Inland you will find many grape vines and wine fincas. You can drive here yourself or arrange an excursion with Guido so you can taste the wine.
Lanzarote has remarkable rocky coastlines with footpaths and small beaches where you can swim. In the south are beautiful sandy beaches, where you can go with your possible rental car.
Language:
Spanish is the official language in the Canary Islands. Because many English and German tourists come to Lanzarote, people also speak English or German.
Currency:
Because the Canary Islands are a province of Spain, you can simply pay with the Euro.
You can withdraw money with almost any debit card. Credit cards are also accepted, with the exception of small shops and restaurants.
The ATM is in Mala Guatiza.
Time difference:
On Lanzarote it is 1 hour earlier than in the Netherlands . This applies to both winter time and summer time.
Climate:
The Canary Islands are also called the islands of “eternal spring”, because the temperature actually remains the same all year round. There is therefore a subtropical climate. Lanzarote is pleasant almost all year round. In summer there can be hot days with an east or south-east wind caused by heat from Africa.
