On the one hand, unique-looking Lanzarote lines up stunning shorelines that call for lazy days in the sun. While on the other, stacks of natural wonders are waiting to be explored in this UNESCO-protected biosphere reserve, from lime-green lagoons to quirky caves. Spend your days hopping between classic resorts like Playa Blanca and Puerto Del Carmen to tick off their roll call of attractions. Or check out the artisan markets and tour the volcanic vineyards. All sorts of water sports are popular here too, and the terrain makes it brilliant to explore by bike. For an adventure to remember, trek to the top of ‘fire mountain’ for a volcanic barbecue feast. The island’s only 60km long and 30km wide, so it’s easy to get around!

All over, you’ll find Lanzarote dotted with César Manrique-designed attractions. There’s the Mirador del Rio lookout, plus his ultra-stylish house that’s been converted into a museum to honour the man himself.
