Discover the history of the island with a visit to Timanfaya National Park, declared a national park back in 1968. This spectacular volcanic landscape covers a quarter of the island and was created over six years of near-continuous volcanic eruptions that took place between 1730 and 1736. Lanzarote’s dry climate means that the Volcanic landscape has been relatively unchanged since that time.
Playa Blanca is great for families and the ideal location for a family villa holiday in Lanzarote, with so much to see and do. With flat terrain, the stunning Papagayo Beaches are located on the outskirts of the resort, along the coastline to the east.

Why not jump on a ferry from the harbour and take a 30 minute journey over to Corralejo in Fuerteventura. The popular Parque Natural de Las Dunas is worth visiting with its sand dunes measuring 10 miles long and 3 miles wide.

From your ideal Playa Blanca private villa you will find plenty to keep you entertained, from sea kayaking to a volcanic landscape jeep safari or perhaps something really different like flyboarding, where you levitate some 12 metres above the sea level. After all that excitement head to the smart marina for a few refreshments and some upscale dining and boutique shopping. All of these activities are available all year round, making Playa Blanca a great destination for a winter sun villa holiday.
