Extra Info: If you want to explore the island you will
find the bus service from Playa Blanca is fairly limited. There are plenty
of organised excursions though or if you’re up for driving, you
could hire a car. Expect to pay about £25 -£30 per day for
a small car.
 Flying
time: Flight time from Belfast is 4 hrs 30 minutes. The transfer
from Arrecife Airport to Playa Blanca is a mere 30 minutes.
Best time to visit: Lanzarote is on the same latitude
as Florida and the Bahamas so it enjoys a dry mild climate all year round
making it an ideal holiday destination, particularly in the winter months.
Currency: Euro
Time Difference: None
Language: Spanish
Tips: Buy at the resort rather than at the airport as
Lanzarote like the rest of the Canary Islands enjoys a special duty free
status which means that for things like cameras, perfume, alcohol, cigarettes
– they’re much cheaper than the rest of the EU. For example
digital camcorders are about 30 per cent cheaper than you would get them
in the UK. Rayban sunglasses will be up to 30 per cent cheaper than they
are back home.
