Lanzarote For a Canary Island Experience


As would be expected of a Canary Island, Lanzarote has resorts and beaches and one such resort is Costa Teguise which offers a range of water sports, golf courses and beaches. For adrenaline junkies the joy of scuba diving, sailing and windsurfing will be irresistible. A relaxing bout of deep sea fishing will be equivalent to paradise.

Costa Teguise consists of three beaches that of Las Curcharas, El Jabillo and Los Charcos. These beaches are the preferred choice of windsurfers being windier than the other beaches in Lanzarote. Of course all this action is not for everyone so those who prefer can while away the time tanning themselves on the warm soft beaches on offer. However, it should be noted that El Jabillo can be a bit pebbly!

The 18-hole golf course acts as a magnet to all golf enthusiasts, as it is surrounded by a beautiful landscape that has been declared a biosphere reserve by UNESCO. Claiming to be the best golf course on the whole of the Canary Islands it is no wonder people throng here to make use of the best of golf resources and practice their swing in an amazing location.

After days spent doing water sports or with sun and sea bathing it is time for some retail therapy. For a difference and some unique souvenirs try the Sunday market where knick knacks can be picked up which would be ideal as keepsakes and gifts for friends and relatives. For a relaxing break from the hustle and bustle of the resort visit the historic capital of Teguise which is about 10 to 15 minutes away.

Costa Teguise is well placed and provides easy access to places of interest such as the ancient Teguise and the Cactus Garden, also there is a water park which would provide immense fun for the kids. Within the resort itself there are many restaurants offering Indian, Chinese and International cuisine, bars and shops catering to the whole family. There are many mini markets providing a range of international goods, so it is easy to be on a self catering holiday while in Costa Teguise.

The family oriented nature of the resort should not put off couples in fear they will be spending their vacation surrounded by hordes of kids. There are many places in Costa Teguise that cater to adults only, so they can enjoy quality time together.

To ensure that maximum can be made out of the holiday time restaurants are usually open till late along with bars so guests are never rushed. It is relatively easy to get around the island as public transport services are readily available. So it is not a costly affair to get around the island and see the many attractions.

As Lanzarote is a popular holiday destination finding accommodation is easy. Whatever the requirements a suitable Lanzarote hotel, apartment or villa can be found on such sites as roomset.com, which makes going on holiday a breeze as booking accommodation can be done with ease.
