Lanzarote

ISLA GRASIOSA

what a beach
Lanzarote, unlike it's sister islands, small is beautiful - no crowded high rise apartments or hotels. Island of contrasts - white sand - black ash - lush vegitation - unusual farming methods. All year round sunshine - relaxing
Great place for some winter sunshine.
Costa Tequise is a laid back resort while Puerto del Carmen is more lively. The so called strip in PDC is very touristy & a bit tacky but the old town is lovely with it's harbour & great bars serving great seafood.
Green pool of water

Evidence of volcanic activitiy all around

Rocks,Rocks and more rocks..............Green pool created after volcanic erruption caused by mineral and salt deposits.

Puerto del Carmen

Lovely walk along the sea wall with great views of the sandy beaches

 Looks like a great place to visit an active volcano. And learn about cacti.

 Another nice page,Joan. Photos are lovely. What a shame you could not use that great blue pool!The cacti look fascinating-I collect them, so would love to see.

 I'd love to visit the Canary Islands but if it's really hot & humid, I'd have to sightsee in early morning or early evening!!
