If you book a villa in Matagorda, a visit to the Timanfaya National Park is a unique and must-see experience on the island. The incredible volcanic landscape covers part of Lanzarote and it was created by the continuous volcanic eruptions for about 6 years in the early 1700s. Get on the bus that takes you around the park on the “Volcano Route”, have a bite at El Diablo restaurant and experience the Fire Mountains geothermal anomalies.

Have you ever been underwater? If you haven’t tried diving before, there is a new and different diving system. These innovative helmets allow beginners to go 3 or 4 metres underwater for half an hour or an hour. Feel what it’s like to be breathing covered by water and experience a zero gravity sensation as if you were on the moon! Maybe this will awaken your curiosity for diving.

5. Enjoy a camel ride

Go around the Timanfaya on a camel or enjoy a whole day tour around the island to visit the lesser-known spots of Lanzarote. Admire the volcanic panoramic views, the green lagoon, go past the Timanfaya and stop for a quick bite and sip of local wine.

6. Explore the underwater world in a submarine!

Admire the seabed of Puerto Calero on board a submarine for an hour. Go into the deep waters of the ocean and discover the beauty of this water paradise from the comfort of your seat. Take a deep breath and relax… The adventure will start and the submarine will start its journey. Let the immersion begin!

You will have plenty of options for lunch and dinner. Enjoy the Canary cuisine and indulge in some of the best recipes on the island. Have some traditional “Papas arrugas and green mojo” which are literally wrinkled potatoes. Try some limpets, grilled octopus, goat meat and the traditional gofio, a toasted flour that gives food a unique flavour and is used in many desserts. For savoury dishes, try mojo de gofio and gofio escaldado. You will also find the traditional Spanish tapas and the best beers and wines to pair them with, especially the CCC pale ales including Dorada Pilsen, Dorada Sin, Tropical Premium or Tropical Lemon.
