Los Hervideros, beautiful volcanic coastline on Lanzarote

Continuing on your trip from Salinas de Janubio to El Golfo or the other way round you come to the next attraction, Los Hervideros, where you can stop at one of the many small bays along a coastline full of nooks and crannies. Park your car at Los Hervideros and admire this miracle of nature. For centuries the sea has eroded the lava at this point. Stand on the cliff, taste the salt in the air and let the wind blow through your hair, as you enjoy the view of the turquoise water crashing against the cliffs.

Important

Take in mind that it can be busy at the big parking area next to Los Hervideros due to the fact that big touristic buses do also stop over here.

Salinas de Janubio, Lanzarote

Approaching on LZ 701 from Yaiza, at the rounabout in La Hoya, take the right exit to Salinas de Janubio. A stunning coastal route of passing Salinas de Janubio at first. Later on Los Hervideros, Charco de los Ciclos and El Golfo.

Mirador de Salinas is signposted and offers a great view over Salinas de Janubio, that depending on the light, appear in various colors. The salt works are a remnant of the past. In the first part of the 20th century up to 10 000t of salt were produced each year. It’s best to leave your car in the parking lot of the restaurant Mirador las Salinas. Parking is free and from the terrace one can enjoy views over the salt flats.

Moreover, you can walk or drive down to the beach Playa de Janubio and have a quite walk on the black ground.

Rental Cars for reasonable prices you can find at PlusCar Car rentals.

View Point Cueva de las Cabras (Risco de Famara), Lanzarote

Cueva de las Cabras has also received a google marker and although the path to this point is difficult you can reach it with your car. Above the cliffs you will a have a broad view from La Graciosa over the Atlantic Ocean to the Beach of Famara and over a large area of the southern Landscape of Lanzarote. Your are very close to the clouds and when they are not there this “Mirador” is a great place to enjoy a sunset on Lanzarote.

El Golfo – Charco de los Clicos o Charco verde, Lanzarote

Continuing trip from direction Los Hervideros you drive until you come to a fork in the road, right goes to El Golfo, left to the free car park at Playa de Los Clicos. From here one explore the bizarre eroded lava rock formations by foot. Perhaps not quite as special as its reputation, but worth seeing is the green lagoon Charco de los Clicos. The small lake owes its distinctive green color to a type of algae that has settled due to the high salinity of the lake. Sit on the beach at Playa de los Clicos and take a dip into the cool water.

Drive back to the aforementioned fork and take the road to El Golfo. Park just outside the village. To the left of the car park a path leads you to a viewpoint above Charco de Los Clicos. Whether you’re hungry, need a glass of good Canarian white wine, or your children want to let off steam, take a trip to the beautiful fishing village El Golfo.

El Golfo really comes into its own in the evening when the sun goes down, and the last rays glistening on the water. Take a seat in one of the small, cozy oceanfront restaurants and tantalize your taste buds. To ensure a seat, it’s better to visit El Golfo during the week rather than at weekends

Important

The metioned road to the left of the fork is unfortunately closed due to landslides at the sea front.

Opening hours

24/7 but prevent walks to the lake when it’s dark

Restaurante Maritoni in Puerto del Carmen, Lanzarote

It is not easy to find the right restaurant in the middle of the numerous restaurants at the Avenida de las Playas next to the beach in Puerto del Carmen.

A secret advice could be this: Restaurante Maritoni in Puerto del Carmen.

However, “secret” is perhaps the wrong term, because many guests visit this restaurant during their holidays several times. Even if the restaurant does not stand out from the crowd due to a huge illuminated sign or a huge sun terrace, you will soon realise that you are right. Many guests are in and in front of the small room. Thus, you may have to wait some minutes for a table. But it is definitely worth it.

If the bar of Restaurante Maritoni is already filled with waiting guests, you can go a few doors further in the bar called Sea View to have beer, wine or something similar. In both locations the spanish team of Toni welcomes you. They all speak english perfectly and also a little bit of german. When your table is ready, they will keep you up from Sea View Bar.

The restaurant Maritoni has existed since the early 1990er. That is special in this street of so many restaurants.

You will find a traditional spanish cuisine that serves you fresh fish, several meals of beef, pig or chicken as well as veggetarian dishes.

If you are not sure about the taste of the dishes, then certainly the fair value for money will convince you.

Or the location at the beach promenade in Puerto del Carmen on Lanzarote.

Important

You may have to walk a bit to reach the restaurant Maritoni because it is not easy to get a parking close to it. But the walk will also helpful afterwards because don’t think that the portions are small…

No reservations! Just pass by

Restaurant Casa Tere in Playa Honda, Lanzarote

The Restaurant Casa Tere is one of the oldest in Playa Honda. The traditional spanish cuisine has seen the development of the town Playa Honda from an unappealing living area next to the airport of Lanzarote to an attraction for spanish residents and tourists.

Along the coastal promenade from the airport to Arrecife more and more Restaurants have settled over the last decades. The founders of Casa Tere were one of the first who did so.

Beside the large beaches of Playa Honda restaurants like the traditional Casa Tere have attracted more and more people to walk along the coastal promenade, to bike, to swim, to relax, to have a rest or to enjoy a delicious meal.

The menu of Casa Tere offers you a variety of traditional spanish food. Meat and fresh fish are common here. It does not matter, wheather you want to have a lunch, a snack or a diner. The menu that offers cold and hot, small and large main courses as well as many starters respectively tapas to share will statisfy you. Seafood, ham or queso or the potatoes, which are typical for the Canary Ilands, will taste very well when you are sitting rightly beside the sea. Also the famous white wine from Lanzarote is served at Casa Tere. Certainly, you can finish your meal with a dessert.

Then, you should not miss to try the tasteful barraquito at Restaurant Casa Tere in Playa Honda …
