Sampling malvasía wines while overlooking black volcanic ash vineyards is a highlight for many. To learn more about the unique winemaking tradition, visit this La Geria vineyards guide to deepen your appreciation for the island's viticulture.

1. Walk the Craters of Los Volcanes National Park

Step into the vast open-air museum of Los Volcanes National Park, where you can walk along the rims of ancient craters and trace the paths of lava rivers frozen in time. Take a guided route around Montaña Colorada to see its striking red slopes, or follow the loop around El Cuervo, where you can enter the collapsed crater itself. Early mornings offer cooler temperatures and golden light that highlights the raw textures of volcanic rock. Every path brings you face-to-face with Lanzarote's explosive past and breathtaking geological artistry.

2. Discover the Charm of Haría in the Valley of a Thousand Palms

Escape to Haría, a lush oasis tucked into the island's north, where tall palm trees cast long shadows over quiet squares and traditional homes. Stroll through the Saturday craft market to find handmade baskets, ceramics and natural cosmetics. Visit the Casa-Museo César Manrique to see where the artist lived and drew inspiration from the surrounding valley. Wander the narrow lanes lined with whitewashed houses and bougainvillea, and enjoy a slow lunch at a local café. Haría offers a peaceful contrast to the island's dramatic volcanic landscapes.

3. Relax at Papagayo's Turquoise Coves

Head to the remote beaches of Papagayo in the Los Ajaches National Park, where sheltered bays offer some of the island's clearest waters. Swim in the calm turquoise sea, sunbathe on pale sand framed by golden cliffs and explore neighbouring coves linked by coastal paths. For surfers, head to Famara Beach, where the long sweep of sand meets powerful Atlantic waves beneath the cliffs of Risco de Famara. Whether you want tranquillity or adventure, Lanzarote's coastline offers a beach for every mood.

4. Dive Into Lanzarote's Underwater Sculpture Museum

Take your sense of adventure below the surface by visiting Museo Atlántico, Europe's first underwater sculpture museum. Dive or snorkel among more than 300 sculptures resting on the ocean floor, designed by artist Jason deCaires Taylor to create new marine ecosystems. Explore reefs around Playa Blanca, kayak past volcanic cliffs at Punta Mujeres or join a surfing session at La Santa. The island's waters offer endless ways to embrace the sea - from adrenaline thrills to peaceful marine discovery.

5. Follow Lanzarote's Wine Route Through La Geria

Wander through the lunar-like vineyards of La Geria, where vines grow in black volcanic gravel protected by semicircular stone walls. Stop at bodegas such as El Grifo, Rubicón or La Geria to sample crisp Malvasía wines and learn how volcanic soil shapes their unique flavour. Visit small farm shops for local goat cheese, fig jam and mojo sauces to pair with your tasting. Each stop reveals both tradition and innovation in Lanzarote's distinctive winemaking culture.

6. Explore Caves and Lava Tunnels Created by Eruptions

Head north to discover Jameos del Agua and Cueva de los Verdes, two incredible lava tube formations shaped over 4,000 years ago. In Jameos del Agua, wander past glowing pools inhabited by tiny albino crabs and admire the architectural fusion of César Manrique's design with natural rock. Continue to Cueva de los Verdes to walk through cavernous passages once used as hiding places during pirate attacks. Each site reveals another layer of Lanzarote's volcanic identity - mysterious, beautiful and full of stories.

7. Hike the Clifftops of the Risco de Famara

Venture to the island's rugged northwest and take the trail from Mirador del Río or Ermita de las Nieves for sweeping views over La Graciosa and the Chinijo Archipelago. The high clifftop paths reveal shifting colours across sea and sky while gentle breezes cool the ascent. Along the way, look out for birdlife, wildflowers and ancient stone shelters. These trails offer peace, drama and some of the most unforgettable landscapes in the Canary Islands. End your hike watching the sun set over the Atlantic from Mirador del Río or Punta Pedrizas. Booking a cheap villa in Lanzarote with a sea view is the perfect way to enjoy the island's natural wonders.
