Where Art Meets Nature
Imagine waking up in a place where volcanic landscapes meet crystal-clear waters, where centuries-old wine traditions thrive in black soil, and where architecture dances with nature in perfect harmony. Welcome to Lanzarote, an island that doesn’t just offer a home – it offers a canvas for living artfully.
The Artist’s Island: A Different Way of Life
Lanzarote defies conventional island living. As the world’s first destination to receive Biosphere Responsible Tourism certification, Lanzarote represents a unique philosophy where development harmonizes with nature, and luxury means authenticity rather than excess.
The island’s distinctive character owes much to the visionary artist César Manrique, whose influence remains evident everywhere. His philosophy of living in harmony with nature has shaped the island’s development, creating an environment where art, nature, and daily life intertwine seamlessly.
Key Manrique-designed attractions include:
- Jameos del Agua: A volcanic tunnel transformed into a spectacular cultural center with a natural underground lake
- Mirador del Río: An architectural masterpiece offering breathtaking views over the Chinijo Archipelago
- Cactus Garden: A former quarry converted into a stunning botanical garden
- The César Manrique Foundation: The artist’s former home built into volcanic bubbles
Natural Masterpieces
The heart of Lanzarote’s allure lies in its extraordinary landscapes, where volcanic forces have sculpted the earth into fantastic formations.
Volcanic Wonders
At Timanfaya National Park, the Mountains of Fire create an otherworldly realm where geothermal energy bubbles just beneath the surface. Here you can experience volcanic demonstrations where water erupts into steam, dine at El Diablo restaurant where food is cooked using natural geothermal heat, and take guided tours through lunar-like landscapes.
