Sunshine, idyllic beaches and warm waters are just the start. Lanzarote boasts an impressive natural variety, with more than 300 volcanic peaks which create a fascinating lunar landscape tinged with pink, purple and ochre; but there are also subterranean caves, tunnels and lakes which entice even the calmest visitor to seek adventure. Needless to say, Lanzarote is paradise for surfers, with perfect waves year-round. And if that is not enough, it is rumoured that the island was part of the lost city of Atlantis...come see for yourself!
