The holiday island of Lanzarote, the furthest north of the Canary Islands, offers all year round sunshine and, because of its position as an Atlantic island off the coast of Africa, a perfect climate to play golf - rarely too hot, never too cold.
Lanzarote has been a popular holiday destination for many years and has one of the oldest golf courses in the Canary Islands. However, development of rolling green golf courses as expected by the modern golfer has been historically hindered by lack of fresh water for irrigation. However, the implementation of large-scale desalination plants changed the situation and allowed the development of several top quality golf courses. Now Lanzarote has become recognised as a great golf holiday destination in its own right.
Golf holiday accommodation is widely available on Lanzarote and is as varied as on the Spanish mainland with budget golf hotels, 5 star golf hotels and every type, size and style of self catering golf villa or golf apartment you could imagine.
Although not as frenetic as Tenerife or Gran Canaria, Lanzarote is a year-round holiday island so aside from superb golf courses and a great range of golf accommodation a Lanzarote golf holiday can offer all the ‘off-course’ entertainment you could wish for.
