Information about Lanzarote (Arrecife)
Lanzarote, one of the Canary Islands off the coast of West Africa and under the domination of Spain, is famous for its always warm climate, beaches and volcanic landscapes. The rocks of the Timanfaya National Park originated from the volcanic eruption around 1730. The Cueva de los Verdes caves were instead created by an underground lava river. On the east coast, the resort of Puerto del Carmen has white houses, beaches and diving centers.

Reaching the port of Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria is part of the Canary Islands, a Spanish archipelago to the north-east of Africa. On the island there are both black lava and white sand beaches. The lively Playa del Inglés and Puerto Rico and the quieter Puerto de Mogán and San Agustín are beaches on the south coast. To the north, the capital Las Palmas is an important stop for cruise ships and hosts numerous duty-free shops. The hinterland of the island is rural and mountainous.
