There is a great amount

Lanzarote is its climate. Lanzarote offers

those who wish to spend time at the beach
and enjoy as many outdoor activities as
possible.
The Limantaya National Park is one of the
first spot tourists should visit while being
in the island. This park was created over an
area of lava field of more than 20 square
miles. This lava field was created around
the year 1730, when several volcanic
eruptions covered the area with lava.

interesting place tourists can visit in
Lanzarote. This house is interesting from
several points of view, such as from an
architectonic perspective or a historic and
an art related one. Near this place, within
the central region of Lanzarote, there is
the island's city of Arrecife, where
tourists can find hotels, shops, restaurants
and other facilities.
The northern area of Lanzarote has
several attractive places to visit. One of
these places is the Jameos del Agua,
offering a formation of lava underground
tunnels created after a volcanic eruption.
Another spot to visit near the Jameos del
Agua is the Mirador del Río. The Mirador del
Río allows visitors to enjoy an amazing view
and incredible landscapes since it is built
over a strategic cliff area.
Another great place tourists can visit in
this area of the island is La Cueva de los
Verdes or Cave of the Greens. La Cueva de
los Verdes is a system of lava caves and
tunnels which are very interesting to meet.
Visitors can walk through them and observe
some unique spots and amazing lava
formations. Near this place, the Jardín de
Cactus is another interesting spot to meet,
containing a wide variety of species and
kinds of cactus which those who enjoy nature
and plants would surely like to observe.
