School holidays often mean busy beaches and packed promenades, but there are plenty of opportunities for families to explore a different side of Lanzarote while enjoying the island’s spectacular scenery. For many families spending the summer in Lanzarote, the daily routine can become monotonous fairly quickly. While beaches and restaurants are popular, many visitors also look for activities that allow them to see more of the island together especially if you have older or more active children. It also enables you to see more of the island than the tourist resorts of Costa Teguise, Puerto del Carmen and Playa Blanca.
Get on your bike
Cycling has become an increasingly popular option, offering a chance to slow the pace and experience quieter roads, traditional villages and striking volcanic landscapes that are often missed by those staying within the main resorts. BikesBooking offers a range of traditional bikes and e-bikes or mopeds you can hire on the island.
Families looking for flexibility can create their own itinerary. Puerto del Carmen provides easy access to coastal routes, while more adventurous cyclists can head towards Playa Quemada or venture inland through Lanzarote’s rural landscapes.
