Summer is almost here and there is nothing better than a Lanzarote holiday. And I mean it. A sweet hot destination loved by Brits, this small Canary Island is Britain\u2019s beloved stop for holidays. You\u2019ve all been to Ibiza<\/a>, Barcelona and Valencia so this summer spice it up and go explore another Spanish owned land with the same customs and even more exciting things to do.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a few travel tips for a memorable Lanzarote holiday:<\/p>\n Depending on how you travel (solo, family, group of friends), there are cheap alternatives for everybody. If you look at one bedroom apartments you can pay about \u00a3150($230) per week and get two of your friends to go with you. It gets a bit crowded but it can\u2019t get any cheaper.<\/p>\n Alternatively, if you\u2019re in a big group it might be worth renting a villa which can go up to \u00a3200-250($310-385) per person. And for solo travellers there is always the beloved hostel which you can easily book on http:\/\/www.hostelbookers.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n Hostels always provide a good bed, good friends and a story to tell when you get back home.<\/p>\n All main airports in the UK have flights to Lanzarote and booking with the low-budget airliners doesn\u2019t make a difference when you\u2019re only flying a couple of hours to the island. Remember that most will arrive at Arrecife (ACE) Airport<\/a> which is locally known as Guacimeta.<\/p>\n Alternatively, you can book a holiday with the multitude of companies that offer packages for about \u00a3300($460) flights and accommodation included. It\u2019s always worth a look at the LastMinute Lanzorote page<\/a> for the latest offers. There\u2019s also the likes of TravelSupermarket and Thomas Cook to consider as well. We all know them. Be picky and you\u2019ll always find one that fits your needs and budget best.<\/p>\n With that out of the way, it\u2019s time to think about transport. Of course there is always public transport on the island but there is no link between the airport and the island\u2019s major resorts. So you can either get a car hire or book an airport shuttle – both of which will be at around the same price. While thinking about saving money you can easily pre-book your car hire in Lanzarote with Holiday Autos<\/a>. They always give great prices and offers all the time by comparing prices across the board. Easy and cheap, who can say no to that?<\/p>\n Nothing beats a Lanzarote holiday with diving, windsurfing, fishing, sailing or golf, you can find a daily activity that will fit everybody\u2019s taste.<\/p>\nWhere to stay<\/h2>\n

\nWe all love Go Karting! It always makes a fun day out and not just for the kids. It\u2019s also very affordable. For a go at ‘Go Karting San Bartolome’<\/em><\/a>, it\u2019s around 10 Euros(\u00a38\/$13) or you can get a three ticket ride for 25 Euros (\u00a321\/$33). You\u2019ll definitely want to give it \u2013 the size of the track alone gets your blood pumping. If you\u2019re a beginner or you haven\u2019t done this in a while, just go for the 200cc single engine Karts first and then change to 320cc. Safety first, so if your driving skills aren\u2019t as good as Fernando Alonso\u2019s, you might want to take it easy in the beginning.<\/li>\n
\nEverybody has diving on their travel bucket list and there\u2019s few better places to strike that off than in Lanzarote. While diving, you can have a very close encounter with barracuda\u2019s and angelsharks, explore underwater caves like the ‘Cathedral’ and adventure yourself around the coast to see the old ship wrecks. The Marine Park was created by sinking \u2013 yes, on purpose \u2013 several boats just off the coast at Puerto del Carmen. And if this didn\u2019t make you open a new tab in your browser to start booking your holiday than maybe this picture of the reefs around the island will<\/p>\n
