Arrecife lanzarote - car hire lanzarote

Arrecife is the capital of Lanzarote, because of its central and essential commercial territory these combine with the bureaucratic and most of the commercial life of Lanzarote, that give Arrecife a calm tranquility that gives the rhythm that we find hard to identify with the norm of every day working life that we are used to.

As the nerve centre of the island arrecife has all kinds of events going for it, for example arts exhibition, cinema showing concert, etc...modern art and cultural exhibitions to make the visitors and travellers trip complete.

The main two festivals being in February and in August, the first is Carnival the carnival parade from Arrecife, and San Gines the Patron Saint of the town, when the eople from all over the island come to the Capital to fill it with colour and traditional event.

Taking a walk along the Avenida Marítima and through the promenades and seaside parks by the sea we can perceive the influence the sea had in forming this city, Arrecife.

The landscape the views and the buildings reminds us of the history of an Island and its fight against the foreing invasion by sea, to defend the freedom of its inhabitants.
