Discovery Bike Ride on Lanzarote Coast

While the gorgeous seas of Lanzarote offer you fantastic swimming, biking along the coastline gives you the chance to explore more of the island’s bright blue ocean. Start in the southeastern town of Puerto del Carmen and cycle through small beach villages to discover both the nature and local culture of Lanzarote. It’s 40 km (25 mi) of fresh sea air and views.

Your day begins with a pickup at your accommodation. You head to the shop to get fitted for the right bike and helmet. Once your guide greets you, the group cycles off. Travel comfortably without the worry of traffic as the groups remain small at maximum 6 people. 

Starting from Puerto del Carmen, you paddle along the waves of the southeast part of the island. Pass through the historic port town of Arrecife and then make a brief pause in Costa Teguise, a resort town where you'll find gorgeous beaches. The group makes a stop here and your guide explains a bit more about the island’s history and wildlife. Once you catch your breath, take more cycle paths through the volcanic landscape of bare rocks and black soil to head back towards Puerto del Carmen. The route does not have any difficult elevation, so children as young as 8 years old can join for a family ride.

Cycling through the unique landscape of Lanzarote gives you a new kind of island adventure. After the day’s active exploration under the sun, you’ll be ready to take advantage of the cool water in front of you.
