Start your vacation off with a visit to the Rancho Texas Lanzarote Park, an amusement park and zoo where kids can see a variety of animals and watch exciting animal shows. Adults may enjoy the pool area, zip line, and gold panning.
Spend the day visiting one of Lanzarote's most famous attractions, Timanfaya National Park. Witness volcanic activity by watching geysers of steam spouting from the ground and see demonstrations of burning hot earth. Next, move to the Green Lagoon of El Golfo, surrounded by black volcanic rocks, and take in the beauty of the magnificent lagoon.
Explore the magical caverns at Jameos del Agua, where artist Cesar Manrique transformed an ancient lava tunnel into a stunning visual experience. Then, head to the nearby Cueva de los Verdes, a unique cave system created by volcanic activity. Join a guided tour to learn the fascinating history of Lanzarote.
Take in the stunning views of the ocean and Famara Beach from Mirador del Rio, located in the northern part of Lanzarote. Afterward, visit the nearby Famara Beach, a perfect spot for families with its calm waves and golden sand.
Cool off from the warm Lanzarote sun at AquaPark Costa Teguise. With an array of pools, slides, and activities for all ages, it's the perfect spot for a family fun day.
Stroll the quaint cobblestoned streets of one of Teguise's charming old towns while shopping for local crafts and treasures at the Teguise Market. In the late afternoon, take a dip in the crystal-clear waters of Puerto del Carmen Beach while watching the sunset.
Head to the northern hills of Lanzarote, where you'll find breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys from Mirador de Haria. Afterwards, visit Las Cuevas de los Jameos del Agua to experience another side of the impressive volcanic cave network.
As renting a car is the most comfortable and cost-effective way to explore Lanzarote, it is highly recommended to arrange car rentals. Alternatively, public buses are available but may be less convenient due to fewer routes.
Driving time averaged around 1 hour. Average car rental prices range from €50 to €90 per day, depending on the type of vehicle and timing of the visit.
If you have more time, visit the wine region of La Geria, or one of the many stunning beaches of Playa Blanca. If you have less time, skip AquaPark Costa Teguise, Teguise Market, and Mirador de Haria as they may be less interactive than some of the other stops on this itinerary.
Lanzarote Airport (ACE) located in San Bartolome, 5.6 miles (9 km) west of Arrecife, is the only airport in Lanzarote.
