Lanzarote holidays mean very different things to different people.
For some, a week lazing on a beach in the warm sunshine is all they’re looking for. However, there are more active Lanzarote holidays available, with a range of things to do in the great outdoors.
Listed below are five outdoor activities you might want to try on your next Lanzarote holiday.
- Golf at Costa Teguise
Now over 30 years old, the course at Costa Teguise Golf has matured into the island’s finest. The stunning volcanic backdrop makes this course unique. Even if you’re having a poor round, it’s worth walking the 18 holes for the scenery alone.
Costa Teguise Golf is a tricky course, but as it’s in such an amazing location, even a round full of bogeys won’t spoil your Lanzarote holiday.
- Surfing
The beaches at Famara and La Santa are renowned as being the best for surfing in Lanzarote. Lots of people go on Lanzarote holidays as complete novices, but choose to take some professional tuition at one of the many surf schools.
If you are a complete novice, Famara is a safer bet than La Santa until you get plenty of experience under your belt.
- Mountain biking
Mountain biking holidays to Lanzarote are popular all year round. Whether you’re looking to ride on some of the toughest terrain in the world, or would prefer some gentler challenges, Lanzarote’s landscape is ideal.
A Lanzarote holiday spent in the scenic hills and mountains is a far cry from some of its lively beach resorts. It’s this diversity that keeps people of all ages and interest coming back to Lanzarote year after year.
- Timanfaya National Park
Timanfaya National Park is another place worth visiting when you’re on holiday in Lanzarote. It’s home to the Fire Mountains (volcanoes), where you can take in the incredible scenery, which looks like another planet entirely.
At the top of the tallest Fire Mountain, you can stop off and have a sizzling steak cooked just how you like it using only the heat from the volcano.
- Playa Las Cucharas
Playa Las Cucharas is a windsurfer’s paradise in Lanzarote. There are plenty of schools on the beach that will provide expert tuition, or you can hire the equipment and head out into the ocean on your own.
Lanzarote never suffers from a lack of wind, making it an ideal place to get on the water and embrace the waves.
