Useful information about the flight from East Midlands to Lanzarote

Lanzarote - Canary Islands

Arrecife is the capital city of Lanzarote and the airport of arrival for those visiting Lanzarote. It's a vibrant, picturesque port with an abundance of history and culture going back to the fifteenth century and many designer boutiques.

 

When is the best time to travel to Lanzarote?

Lanzarote has a year round mild, dry climate, but can be windy with the wind picking up in July. If you like visiting at festival time, the colourful carnival takes place in February, with processions, festivities, competitions, bonfires and burying a sardine.

During the second half of August the island hosts the Fiesta de San Gines honouring Lanzarote's patron saint with fireworks, music, workshops, cultural and sporting events. 

Tips before travelling

The best way of seeing Lanzarote's more remote parts is hiring a car. Be aware that it can be difficult to find a space to park in central Arrecife due to narrow streets and limited parking spaces, so the easiest option is to park in the municipal car park and walk into the town.

Local foods include papas arrugadas in mojo (salted potatoes in sauce with garlic), usually eaten with seafood. Food and drink is generally less expensive than in the UK. Eating out can be cheaper than in London. You can get a good value lunchtime menu del dia (set menu of the day) starting from about 10 EUR. As Lanzarote has a Duty Free status cigarettes, alcohol and perfume are all less expensive than in the UK. 
 
Lanzarote's time zone is Western European Time and thus, the same as the UK.
