Are you already dreaming of having the summer back, when at home it's winter, it's snowing, and it gets dark early?
You're not alone, and thousands of holidaymakers take a winter holiday in Lanzarote to get a week or two of sunshine.
There are three main towns In Lanzarote where the majority of people who visit stay:
Playa Blanca, Puerto Del Carmen and Costa Teguise.
Each is different and offers new and exciting things to do.
Hotels in Lanzarote
The three primary accommodation types are apartments, villas and hotels.
Shopping, restaurants and bars are easily accessible. Most restaurants
stay open very late to accommodate those who enjoy their night life.
Playa Blanca is popular with those who take Lanzarote villa holidays but they are also available in the other areas.
Relaxation
Beaches are not in short supply - it is an island after all.
Snorkelling, swimming and other water sports are readily available. Many
sunbathers enjoy watching others enjoy the surf while they take in the
Lanzarote weather and incredible scenery, some of it visible when coming
in to land on Lanzarote flights as a preview of what to expect.
Nothing beats the total relaxation of a spa day. Local spas cater to
seasonal visitors and provide a good way to relax and get away from it
all. Sea water treatment centres are in high demand. Sea water is very
soothing and therapeutic with a naturally calming effect.
Cafes, restaurants and bars are good places to catch some shade and
relaxation. A cool drink helps keep the body hydrated while you enjoy
the surrounding sights and sounds.
Sightseeing
Aside from waking up to the horizon outside the window, away from the
beaches other locations are deserving of a holidaymaker's time. Playa
Blanca's new golf course and marina are two examples of the attractions
in the southern part of the island.
Timanfaya National Park is a must see. Plan to spend at least a few
hours and enjoy the restaurant if possible. Please keep in mind that you
will be treading the top of a volcano and dress accordingly. It will
likely be cooler than the rest of the island and rocky ground requires
adequate footwear.
Castillo de las Coloradas gets its name from the colourful rocks on the
coastline of Playa Blanca. The ruins of an historic castle that was
built to help defend the island and its inhabitants from pirate attacks
in the mid 1700s are just to the east of the Playa Blanca area.
One of the primary landmarks in the southern part of Lanzarote is the
lighthouse, Faro de Pechiguera. Built in 1986, the lighthouse is of
fairly recent construction and not that spectacular in itself.
The walk from Playa Blanca to the lighthouse however is absolutely
amazing. The trek takes approximately half an hour, depending on pace
and offers views of neighbouring islands Los Lobos and Fuerteventura.
Don't Forget Sunscreen and Comfortable Shoes
The sun's rays are well known to cause aesthetically pleasing tans as
well as types of skin cancer. Take proper care of your skin while
visiting the Canary Islands and take sunscreen. Drink a lot of fluids to
prevent dehydration and take comfortable shoes.
Sandals and flip-flops are preferred summer wear for most people on
their Lanzarote holidays. Some people even prefer to simply go barefoot.
Take more caution and be a little more practical when visiting Lanzarote
and all of the natural wonders. Hot sand can blister, slippery rocks
may cause falls, and volcanic rock may cut your feet. You don't have to
wear them all the time, but you definitely need proper footwear while
out sightseeing and exploring the delight that is Lanzarote.

Sensational YoVille Interior Designer Fallen Reveals Her Yo-Secrets!
This post is part of a series of interviews with creative WYID members to be posted on YoVille Lounge.
Fallen WYID, First Place Winner of ‘Best Holiday Ice Palace Room’(2009),‘Best Beach Party’(2010), and ’Best V-Day or Anti V-Day Room’(2010) official YoVille.com contests. Who inspires Fallen? What would she choose as the next YoVille theme? And what tips and tricks does she have to share with us? Enjoy this short interview after the link.
YVL Jil WYID: Fallen what is your creative process and how do you prepare a room before you start?
Fallen WYID: When I begin, I first clear out the room and change the walls and floor to black. Then I place windows until I get a design or shape I like, decide what color the room is going be, and after that place large furnishing, like couches and furniture (Its great now because you can try before you buy ,lol) Rugs would go next, and this is usually the time I would add another level to my room. When I get to this stage the rest is easy for me, I just add a few bits and pieces in the right places to make the room look fuller.
First Place ‘Best Beach Party’ (2010) Official YoVille Contest.
YVL Jil WYID: Where to you get your inspiration from? And who or what inspires you?
Fallen WYID: This may sound funny but a lot of my inspiration has come from the cartoons my kids watch, lol! I am also inspired by any contemporary or modern interior designers out there, oh, and all the awesome WYID and NYID members.
First Place ‘V-Day or Anti V-Day Room’ (2010) Official YoVille Contest.
YVL Jil WYID: Please share with our readers a few of your design tips.
Fallen WYID: I normally stick to no more than two or three colors that go well with each other. I have learned that two or three good colors in ANY room can make it really stand out, and also don’t over pack your room.Windows are great for measuring if you want a symmetric room. To work out the center of a room, I use windows of the same size and zig zag them across the room, then count until I work out the middle.
YVL Jil WYID: I have noticed that you create both ‘Room Designs’ and ‘Pictographs’ exquisitely. Most designers are stronger with either/or. Which do you prefer?
Fallen WYID: As much as I love ‘Pictographs’, personally I prefer a well designed room, but when it comes to contest time ‘Pictographs’ do a lot better simply because they stand out more.
First Place ‘Best Holiday Ice Palace Room’ (2009) Official YoVille Contest.
YVL Jil WYID: In your honest opinion, what do you think about the new YoVille ‘Tycoon’ theme and what would you like to see added to it? Has it inspired any new creations?
Fallen WYID: I love the new house/boat and the costumes they have released so far, but if I’m honest am not really into the new furnishings and really hope they bring out nicer stuff to work with; large chandeliers, new pillars, etc…. When I eventually get my boat, I will be gathering inspiration from the Titanic movie as I would love to do a titanic like ship.
YVL Jil WYID: Fallen, If you could choose the next YoVille theme, what would that be? And, which type of furnishings and costumes would you offer?
Fallen WYID: If I could choose the next theme in YoVille it would have to be an ‘Under-Water’ theme with large castles, moving fish, treasures, jewels, sand banks, moving seaweed, air bubbles things like that. Costumes would have to be realistic looking mermaid, starfish, seahorse etc…
