Surfing and yoga: surrounded by the volcanoes of Lanzarote

Lanzarote sees itself as Fuerteventura's little sister: less tourism, even more untouched nature and more surf spots for advanced surfers await you on this unique volcanic island. Caleta de Famara is a small village on the north coast of Lanzarote, located in the middle of the Chinio archipelago nature reserve. While the south is characterized by tourism, here you will find peace, serenity and like-minded surfers. In addition to the local gastronomy, you can also rent skateboards, bikes and cars, go to the fitness center and visit yoga or massage studios. In recent years, Famara has become a small surfing hotspot for people from all over the world. The secluded, three-kilometre-long sandy beach borders Caleta de Famara to the west and ends directly at the Risco de Famara mountain massif to the west. The incomparable area, shaped by volcanic rock, is characterized by its secluded, rugged nature and its vastness. A few hundred meters away is the beautiful sandy beach of San Juan, where competitions are held every year in October as part of the World Surfing Championships. For longer excursions, Lanzarote also offers the Timanfaya National Park with its dormant volcanoes, as well as Jameos del Agua, an extraordinary volcanic tunnel with caves, underground concert hall, restaurant and salt lake.
