A fantastic range of maritime adventures depart from the ferry port in Playa Blanca. At the port itself, you’ll find a number of reliable boat trip operators offering fun excursions around Lanzarote and other islands in the Canaries. Operators can also take you ashore on some of the most beautiful and unspoilt beaches in the island chain, including hidden coves on La Graciosa and the pristine sands of Papagayo.
Lanzarote trips and excursions offer plenty of opportunity to take in the best of the Canaries’ gorgeous landscapes and picturesque towns. Lanzarote excursions from Playa Blanca are a great way to mix activities with relaxation while you’re on the island. Some of the must-see destinations on Lanzarote include Timanfaya National Park, a stunning area characterised by volcanoes, and Cueva de los Verdes, an impressive tunnel formed by lava.
Tourist Ticket are the largest operator of excursions in the resort and you can find two of their offices in the town centre and another in the ferry harbour. They offer a number of tours, including an excursion to Los Lobos which costs from €15 per adult and allows guests to explore this fascinating little island at their own leisure. You can also embark on a whale watching tour, which is obviously a big hit with children and costs from €65 per adult, with concessions for kids.
Their best seller is the Fuerteventura Grand Tour, which takes in all of the key historic towns and villages on the island, as well as the amazing Dunas National Park just outside Corralejo. Prices start from €40 per adult.
