There´s never been a better time to visit Lanzarote. As there are some really hot flight deals available to the Island of Fire this winter. Thanks to the arrival on the scene of Ryanair. Who have switched their focus to Lanzarote and the Canaries this year. With return flights to Lanzarote available from just £9.99.
Lanzarote has plenty to recommend it as an ideal winter sun destination. Boasting temperatures that touch 20 Celsius plus even during the depths of December and a very manageable flight time of just four hours. Along with nearly 100 great beaches and some excellent accommodation. Increased competition on the route between Ryanair and easyJet also means that for the first time genuine low cost flights to the island are now more widely available.
Winter sun seekers can expect to enjoy plenty of days on the beach or by the pool. Although nighttimes temperatures can cool quickly – think desert climate here, as the outer fringes of the Sahara are only 100 miles or so away. Yet despite the exotic location the island has all the familiar cuisine and customs of a Spanish holiday destination and is also part of the EU. So eliminating any visa hassles.
During the winter months it’s best to follow the swallows and head south. To the popular resort of Playa Blanca – home to a massive range of Lanzarote holiday villas and hotels. Such as the sumptuous five star Gran Melia Volcan – which is located close to the luxurious Rubicon Marina and which boasts a replica volcano as it’s entrance hall.
This slightly kitsch homage to Lanzarote´s best know tourist attraction of the Fire Mountains at nearby Timanafya actually works quite well. And the hotel itself offers excellent guest facilities and high standards of service.
In the unlikely event of bad weather Lanzarote offers a lot for visitors to do and see. Aside from beaches and the awe inspiring volcanic region there´s loads of picturesque towns and villages to explore. Such as Yaiza – twice voted the prettiest village in Spain. And Haria – located in the north in the verdant folds of the Valley of 1000 Palms.
Those in search of a spot of culture will also love the creations of the local artist César Manrique. Who developed loads of unique visitor attractions such as the Jameos del Agua and the Mirador del Rio.
Car hire in Lanzarote is very affordable and the roads are quiet outside of the main resorts. Making it easy to get out and explore this unique volcanic island.
