Lanzarotte, Canary islands, Spain

A vacation trip in Lanzarotte at the end of 2012. It is a touristic island but it has places which are worth a visit. I made allot of pictures here starting with the place I stayed, in Areciffe: Areciffe . Not a very good choice for a stay, but is has good connections with the rest of the island, and is really easy to go around from here. First place I visited was Puerto del Carmen. Next day I went to Playa Blanca and the beaches of Papagayo: Playa Blanca . One of the reasons I have chosen Lanzarotte was to visit the Timanfaya national park with the volcanic side of the island: Timanfaya. Next was a trip to Costa Teguise: Costa Teguise . A car trip was a bit more efficient being able to visit Jardin del Cactus, Jameo del agua, Cueva de los Verdes, Miradouro de Rio and El Golfo. Next two trips were to Teguise and the last one to watch the waves in La Santa: La Santa.
