Springtime in Lanzarote - ideal time for exploring the great outdoors.

The weather is glorious, and the North of the island is breath-taking; warm sunshine coupled with the fresh Atlantic breeze, make this the ideal destination.

During the month of April, we will see an overnight transformation of the volcanic landscape into something beautiful and even magical.

The dry, dusty mountains turn a lush green and the wildflowers start to burst forth, coating the slopes in pretty shades of pink, purple, blue, and yellow. The wildlife is also in full force with many migrant birds, gracing the island from the small House Martins to grand looking Falcons.

For those who know the island, sustainability has always been at the heart of Lanzarote and Springtime provides the perfect opportunity to eat local produce and support the local farmers.

So, if you are looking to taste the difference, why not try a local market, such as in Haria showcasing a huge variety of goat´s cheese, white wine, and vegetables.

Sweet potatoes, onions, squash, tomatoes aubergines, courgettes and carrots are all bursting with flavour this time of year and are grown here in the volcanic soil for a unique and distinctive taste. In recent times, there has been an increased focus on organic and ecological products, providing a healthy lifestyle for all.

If this arouses your interest, head towards the resort of Costa Teguise where water sports are a way of life, or take a trip to Famara, a surfer paradise with the magnificent backdrop of the stunning cliffs.

Springtime also brings the trade winds creating the perfect environment for sailing, windsurfing and kitesurfing.

With the weather not being too hot or cold during Spring, it is ideal for walking, hiking or bike riding across the various treks and trails, found across the entire island, not to mention Le Geria, the amazing wine region, a great excuse to stop, for some lovely tapas and a glass of vino.

Lanzarote really has something to offer, for all ages, abilities, and tastes.
