This former airfield is now a beautiful park clinging to the edge of the lake. There is even a beach right by it! We spent the day hiking around and enjoying a picnic in the sun and had a totally alternative but great day out in the "city"!

We took a day trip to this amazing village, in the path of the volcanic eruptions of Timanfaya. It's been voted Spain's prettiest village more than once and we adored it here. Stunning.

The nickname of "the valley of 1000 palms" is spot on here, they are everywhere!! We had such a lovely and relaxing holiday here in the rural centre of the island. Bliss.

We went to this former fishing port to see the windmills and it made for a beautiful trip out. We saw the lovely countryside as well as the fantastic mills and ate some lovely food to boot.

Make sure you have plenty of time if you go in the maze!!! We didn't and had to rush seeing the rest of the place, which is very lovely.
