Yaiza
The town on the outskirts of Timanfaya National Park is considered the second by some people (by Teguise) the most beautiful on the island. What distinguishes them from other white towns is their extraordinary care for order – Yaiza has been proclaimed the cleanest and tidiest town in Lanzarote several times. It is worth visiting the 17th-century parish church of Nuestra Seńora de Los Remedios, with a remarkable wooden altar.
By far the biggest attraction of the town is the La Era restaurant with over 300 years of home, who was one of the few to survive the volcanic cataclysm in the eighteenth century. In years 70. In the twentieth century, the building was renovated, he expanded and adapted the good spirit of Lanzarote - Cesar Manriąue to the restoration. La Era is by far the most popular . restaurant on the island, therefore it is worth booking a table in advance. If someone fails, he can eat in any of the three other places: Field, El Volcan or La Casona de Yaiza in a stylish hotel of the same name, arranged in one of the three cataclysm survivors' houses. The third of the surviving properties was also adapted to the luxurious Finca Las Salinas hotel, resembling a Mexican hacienda..
The gulf
On the south-west coast of Lanzarote, right on the border of Timanfaya National Park is a small cluster of traditional white houses. Lots of people say, that the small village of El Golfo is the perfect place for the last evening on the island - excellent food will be remembered by visitors, volcanoes towering over the ocean and the sunset, which cannot be seen from anywhere else on the island.
If someone really did not want to part with Lanzarote, and in particular from El Golfo, he can stay overnight at the Hotelito del Golfo or rent a Caletón del Golfo bungalow.
There are only a few restaurants in the village, however, each of them is worth recommending. For a delicious dinner overlooking the beach, you can visit the Bogavante. They also serve very good meals on the main street, in La Lapa.
Pool of the Cliks
Hardly anyone expects to see the lake in the middle of the beach, except on the south-west coast of Lanzarote, where the bright green Charco de los Clicos shines. The picture is completed by a huge orange-pink rock emerging just off the shore.
In fact, Charco de los Clicos is not a lake, but a lagoon fed by seawater, and the bay, in which it lies, it is a volcanic crater washed by the sea. Algae live in the waters of the reservoir, which give them such an intense light green color, that Charco de los Clicos is sometimes called Charco Verde (Green Lake). Unfortunately, over the past 20 years, due to intensive evaporation, the area of the green lagoon has almost halved
Getting to Charco de los Clicos is very easy – the bay is right on the road, although she is not visible from it. It is best to leave your car in the marked parking lot south of the bay, then take a comfortable and wide trail to the beach.
At the northern end of the bay, there is a vantage point at the top of the cliff, to which a steep looking sandy path leads. It is worth defeating (the climb takes only a few minutes), because from the top you can admire the bay and the lagoon in all its glory, and the village of El Golfo, just a few hundred meters away, whose traditional white buildings contrast beautifully with the brown slopes of the volcano and the black rocky beach.
The Heruideros
Hervidero means' place, in which water boils ".
In Lanzarote, water “boils” on the coast a few kilometers beyond El Golfo, in a place called Los Hervideros. Arriving at your destination on a windy day, plumes of water rising above the earth's surface can be seen from a distance. However, this is not the cause of the geyser, but the sea waves, which forcefully fall into tunnels and grottos, over the years the water has carved in the stagnant lava. Los Hervideros can be seen up close – just leave the car in the parking lot and take a walk along carefully prepared paths among the sea and lava – you just have to be careful, to peeking into one of the caves, not to be surprised by the water.
Janubio Salt Flats
From Los Hervideros, the road leads along the seashore, to suddenly take off inland, avoiding the bay tightly filled with white checkerboard. It's a salt works – Janubio Salt Flats, where seawater is evaporated on square plots. In the distance, there are remnants of windmills - now they have been replaced by electric pumps.
Founded in 1895 r. Salinas de Janubio occupy 4,5 km2, which makes it the oldest and largest brewhouse in the entire archipelago. It was produced here in its prime 10 thousand. tons of salt per year; currently production has dropped to approx. 2 thousand. your, however, it is, that the brewhouse is still working, is a huge success.
Salinas de Janubio can be seen from a small parking lot and from the terrace of the Mirador Las Salinas Casa Domingo restaurant or from the sea - just driving from Los I Iervideros, head right onto the beach – the exit is in place, where the LZ-703 road turns inland.
Femes
Being in Lanzarote, a visit to Femes is a must – inconspicuous white village, in which stands the church of the patron saint of the island, st. Martiala z Limoges (Church of St. Martial of Limoges). The town is also a nice place to taste traditional Canarian cuisine - the best places are Emiliano, Casa Juan oraz Balcony of Femes.
Pechiguera Point
The southernmost point of Lanzarote is Punto de Pechiguera, from which the outlines of Fuerteventura are beautifully visible. No coupling w 1866 r. a lighthouse was built, which after 120 years has been replaced with a new one, fully automated construction, and the first building was declared historic.
Quemada Beach
"Burnt beach" is a pleasant surprise, meaning the rocky Playa Quemada, the perfect place to escape from the world. Unlike other coastal towns, There is no actual hotel here, apartment or guesthouse – you can only rent accommodation from villagers.
The restaurant Playa Quemada is located on the seafront, which serves really fresh fish – mainly locals come here.
