Arrecife
Stay in the capital of Lanzarote, which is a melting pot of cultures where life simply makes sense.
The capital of the island of Lanzarote, it’s the perfect base for your visit, as it’s near all the top tourist attractions.
As its name suggests, the city’s coastal area is protected by islets and rocky areas, creating quiet, idyllic, urban beaches.
Its past is closely linked with piracy, so if these types of adventures are right up your alley, you can visit some of its castles, which served as fortresses against invasions. If you decide to go down this route, you’ll discover that the island has more surprises in store for you.
Are you an early bird?
Arrecife is located on the eastern side of Lanzarote, facing the sea, so you can catch a wonderful view of the sun as it rises over the Atlantic Ocean. While you’re enjoying the view, there’s nothing like a great breakfast to start your day off on the right foot, to give you the energy you need to explore to your heart’s content.
In the afternoon, you can go for a lovely stroll through the city’s historic centre or along its promenade, which connects the capital to nearby towns on foot.
If you fancy going out at night, the Charco de San Ginés is where all the action is. It’s a natural saltwater lagoon that was used to keep fishing boats safe.
This area makes for a very unique and distinctive picture, so, while you’re having a snack or tucking into dinner at one of its bars or restaurants, you’ll also get to enjoy the wonderful atmosphere and the amazing views.
I recommend that you make your way there before sunset, so you can enjoy the colours of the sunset reflected in the calm waters of the lagoon.
Don’t forget to take your camera with you!
