Lanzarote is situated just 120km off the coast of Africa and is the most easterly of the Canary Islands. Formed as a result of volcanic activity about 15 million years ago, it is 70km long and 20km wide with around 300 volcanoes! In 1992 it was declared as part of the World Biosphere Reserve and therefore under the protection of UNESCO. The island has a mild and sunny climate all year round with a truly unique light and spectrum of colours. There is huge scenic diversity here - on one hand strange rock formations and an almost lunar volcanic landscape - on the other fantastic wide golden or black sandy beaches pounded by perfect waves - real contrast and diversity everywhere you go.
FBC Lanzarote is situated at the beach of Las Cucharas in Costa Teguise on the north east of the island just 15 minutes drive from the airport. Costa Teguise has a huge variation in both the quality and type of food available and all tastes are catered for. The standard and diversity of accommodation is extremely high and ranges from 4 and 5 star hotels to simple self-catering accommodation. Everything is within easy reach, and all you need is in walking distance. However, we really do recommend hiring a car to take in some of the breathtaking eco-tourist attractions.
There is so much to do on this island in terms of sports and attractions for families, singles, couples … everybody! Lanzarote is also literally bursting with wave spots and TOP surf conditions all over the island. Warm clear waters and ideal weather conditions make it the perfect destination for pleasure seekers. Just a few hours by plane, Lanzarote is waiting to be re-discovered. See it with fresh eyes.
We recommend:
The Aquarium - Dive with sharks!
Mirador Del Rio - A view to die for.
Timanfaya National Park - 50 sq. km of volcanic landscapes, tubes and craters which will fascinate you no end.
Jameos del Agua - Lava tube with a natural concert hall, subterranean lagoon, restaurant and museum.
Famara – Probably the most impressive sandy beach, with the nicest sunsets and tons of waves.
