Visits

Browse a selection of our favourite activities and visits.

Take a guided tour and watch demonstrations in this dramatically beautiful park, the region’s only national park that is geological in nature. The Park is the result of volcanic eruptions from 1720-1736, and in 1824 and features include lava formations, volcanic craters, volcanic cones and domes as well as geothermal activity.

Highlights include a camel ride over the volcanic dunes and a chance to explore the rugged coastline at the Salt Flats of Janubio and the rocky inlet of Los Hervideros.

Lanzarote Geography field trips should always include a visit to Parque Nacional de Timamfaya

Home to the Green Lagoon known as El Charco de los Clicos that is connected to the sea through underground cracks. It is green because of the many plant organisms in the water. This area is of special interest to geologists because of the olivine gemstone that is found here.

Unique caverns and volcanic lava tubes on a site that also features a saltwater lake, an auditorium built into a cave and a restaurant.

Spectacularly embellished by Cesar Manrique, the island’s famous local artist, there are both natural and man-made swimming pools.

The indigenous tiny blind albino crabs can be seen in the lake and also on site is the 'House of Volcanoes’ with exhibits on volcanology in the region.

Part of the same volcanic tunnel as Jameos del Agua and only a 5 minute coach journey away from there, the Cueva de los Verdes or the Túnel de la Atlántida offers a fascinating glimpse into the labyrinth of underground caves used by pirates.

Take an underground tour through this volcanic submarine lava tube, see the illuminated rock formations and discover the caves’ hidden secret.

Take a dive on board a real submarine which will show you the fascinating underwater life below the Atlantic Ocean. You will be on a real submarine, which will take you 30m below the water.

César Manrique Foundation

The artist and architect César Manrique’s magnificent former studio-home, which was built on a lava field. Manrique used the natural formation of five volcanic bubbles to create his rooms.

Enjoy a day in the water! The park has slides, rapids and a wave pool.

A patchwork of salt pans set against black volcanic scenery, the salt pans at Janubio still produce over 15,000 tons of salt every year and use techniques that have changed little in more than 100 years.

This is the biggest wine producing area on the island. See how each vine is planted in a funnel shaped hollow dug into the volcanic ash then filled with soil and volcanic granules.
