Before you travel to Arrecife by plane - good to know!

Arrecife itself is a fine city to spend a day or two, but most travellers go directly to a resort in Costa Teguise, Puerto del Carmen or Playa Blanca, but there is so much more to the island. Hiring a car allows for trips to the surfer beach at Famara and to the spectacular Mirador del Rio, set into the cliffs with a view over to the nearby island of La Graciosa. The series of caves known as Jameos del Agua are, in their own way, equally  as spectacular, with light shows, a swimming pool and cafes set in collapsed underground lava tunnels. The Fundación César Manrique, technically a museum dedicated to Lanzarote's renowned artist/architect, is in fact his space-age home, a symphony in white built in five volcanic bubbles. The active will enjoy a guided walk in the Timanfaya National Park where guided tours are available around the Montañas del Fuego or Mountains of Fire.
