Arrival in the Canaries in February, specifically in La Caleta de Famara, Lanzarote, with a car rented in Playa Bianca, reached by ferry from Corralejo, Fuerteventura, a place reached in turn by a Ryanair flight, Pisa-Fuerteventura.
La Caleta de Famara, there are 10 miles of straight road in a breathtaking view to reach, is a town frequented by surfers, there are a dozen schools and surf hire, and dozens of people who practice this sport.
From the beach, very windy, you can see the kite-surf and surfing in the sea, a mountain rises at the sight, the Isla de la Graciosa behind the waves, a town on the sea and a beach, rather than beaches, very beautiful.
La Caleta de Famara is a place closer to Europe and certainly recommended to those who practice surfing the Atlantic Ocean wind is blowing all the year round in this enchanted place.
Lanzarote is the most north-east of the Spanish Canary Islands.
It owes its name to Malocello Lanzerotti, the Genoese navigator, born in Varazze (SV), who first discovered it in 1312 and occupied it for some time. The area is 806 km2 (fourth island of the archipelago), the population is about 140,000.
Arrecife is the main center of the island.
The main tourist attraction is the island's Timanfaya National Park, located in the west and characterized by volcanic landscape.
Other attractions are the caves of Jameos del Agua and Cueva de los Verdes.
The cave Jameos del Agua, was formed during the run of molten lava into the sea, the ocean water filtering, has created a blue lake in the Jameos.
To access this fantastic place, in addition to € 8, you need skills in dealing with these many steps, accessing the Jameos del Agua you can see the changes you made the genial Manrique, bar, restaurant, swimming pool and concert hall with a 'perfect acoustics!
To get to Jameos del Agua, follow the road signs, take the bus that goes from Arrecife to Orzola, number 9, with only three runs from Monday to Friday, and two races on the weekends.
From Jameos del Agua, I headed to Cueva de Los Verdes, is the open part of an 8km tunnel in the lava, eruption 5000 years ago he created, 6km of this tunnel have emerged, and this is within 2km of the ocean ! Also visit this place, to date, 2011, you need 8 €, and the visit is certainly more worth of Jameos del Agua, although not recommended for those suffering from claustrophobia.
From Cueva de Los Verdes to the Mirador del Rio, there are breathtaking views.
Then arrived at the Mirador del Rio, the breathtaking views are unfulfilled, because everything is an unique and unimaginable.
In front of the Mirador del Rio is a small island is the Isla Graciosa, Caleta del Sebo is the only town inhabited island, which is part of the so-called Canary Minor, the row of volcanic islands that extends north of Lanzarote .
The Mirador del Rio is a former military post, renovated for use as a vantage point, inside there is a bar and a restaurant and a terrace where you can enjoy the view, an idea increasingly Manrique.
From the vantage point you can admire the steep fall of consolidated lava pouring into the Ocean.
