the best climate of the island and lies on the nautical corridor between
the neighboroughing island of Fuerteventura and the island of Los Lobos,
seperated from Lanzarote via La Bocaina.

heritage can still be seen on the beaches and the traditional port area.
From this point, you can also take the ferry to Fuerteventura, which
takes only 35 minutes.
A very long costal path will take runs through Playa Blanca starting
from the lighthouse of "Pechigera" in the west and ending at
the small castle of "las Coloradas" in the east.

with children. Away from the hussle and bustle and close to the resort
are the beaches of "Papagayo". Theses beautiful beaches and coves are
protected from being developed and can be reached by car or water Taxi. |
