LanzaroteThe lovely island of Lanzarote is the most easterly of the Canary islands situated 70 miles off the African coast. The islands economy is now mainly tourism which has taken over from it's agricultural and fishing past. Many of Lanzarotes resorts have grown up around it's old fishing villages and most of the recent development has been done sympathetically, many of Lanzarote's holiday resorts retain their original character and charm.
One of the main reasons for the popularity of Lanzarote and indeed all the Canary island its the wonderful all year round climate, average temperature of around 22C is normal for the island.
The town of Arrecife is Lanzarotes capital and is home to over half the islands population as well as being the center for political and commercial life.
Lanzarote's holiday resorts are some of the best that the Canary islands have to offer: These include Puerto del Carmen which is possibly the most visited of the islands resorts, as well as having one of the longest beaches on the island (over six kms of golden sand) Puerto del Carmen offers first class accommodation and an excellent selection of bars and restaurants.
