Lanzarote, part of the Canary Islands, is known for great year-round weather and black beaches. They aren't all black though, with a wealth of other sandy beaches too, just waiting for you to head over for a holiday in the sun. It's a great idea to arrange cheap car hire in Lanzarote so you can be free to explore as many as your heart desires. Cheap holidays to Lanzarote are not as well known for their nightlife as those in Tenerife, but that's changing. Expect Puerto del Carmen to keep getting bigger in 2012 and 2013, with later and louder parties. It's still pretty calm elsewhere, so don't worry! Check out Arrecife for a quieter party vibe with local entertainment.
Lanzarote boasts stunning volcanic landscapes, unspoilt by high rise holiday flats - there's no such development here. You can either enjoy your holiday here by heading to one of the resorts, where everything you want will be on tap - or why not arrange your own package? Book flights and a secluded hotel or apartment, and have a quiet and relaxing time exploring the island's charms. Look out for events such as the 2012 or 2013 Jazz Festival to add an extra dimension to your holiday in Lanzarote and really make it one to remember.
Lanzarote boasts a warm climate all year round, which is fantastic for beach holidays. It's a great winter sun destination with year averages of 21°C to 29°C. Thanks to the island's location just four hours away from the UK by plane, you can get the sunshine of a long-haul destination without putting in the hours in the air.
Aside from the beaches, the volcanic interior is one of the highlights. Timanfaya National Park is the major must-see on any holiday in Lanzarote - but you must join a tour, you can't just set off into the smouldering park. Why not make a stop at El Diablo, where you can eat lunch cooked by the fire of the volcano! This is just one of the creations of island legend Cesar Manrique. Also check out the Mirador del Rio view point and the cactus garden.
