Where the weather decides the plan

  • A day on Famara beach Strong waves and wind are characteristic here: follow local flags and qualified advice. Bring sun protection, water and a layer for wind.
  • The beaches of Costa Teguise Wind is part of Las Cucharas’ appeal for many visitors. Check conditions locally and choose sheltered water only when the day’s advice supports it.
  • A walk on La Graciosa Choose a shorter turnaround when heat, wind, footwear or ferry time make the full Caleta de Sebo–Montaña Amarilla circuit unwise. Carry water and sun protection.
  • A day in Timanfaya Carry water and sun protection, and do not leave marked visitor areas.

Readings are measurements from Open-Meteo. Whether a bus or a ferry runs is for Intercity Lanzarote and the ferry operator to say, not this panel.
