An island with its own wine making region and a place where they encourage you to cook steaks on rocks, Lanzarote is a sunny holiday island with many spectacular beaches and a huge number of Canarian palm trees. Although, Tapas is considered to be the number one dish in the region, here at Lanzarote locals will serve you the delicious Mojo potatoes. They dish consists of baked potatoes and red pepper sauces. When you pass the massive lava fields, you will notice something quite extraordinary and impressive. The Secret Lagoon is tucked behind the cliffs and is the most notable landmark on the island.

Besides hundreds of white sandy beaches that are located in all of the Canary Islands, there is one spot reserved for a black beach that is called Playa Quemada. Not many people had the chance to see a black beach and it will be a truly unique experience when they set foot on that silky black sand. Are you into surfing? Well, Lanzarote is considered to be a number one surfing spot in Europe. Go to Caleto Caballo and Caleta de Famara to watch surfers doing their tricks. The beauty of this place is so magnificent that it has been used as a setting for many Hollywood Blockbusters, such as Moby Dick and Doctor Who.
