La Graciosa – Lanzarote, Canary Islands

La Graciosa - The island of La Graciosa was formed as part of volcanic activity and though its birth was through such violent beginnings the islands name translates from Spanish as ‘graceful’. The name probably relates more to the way the people live here than the island itself. As part of a nature reserve the island is subject to planning regulations which will prevent the island from ever becoming overdeveloped and unsightly. Holiday rentals in La Graciosa offer comfortable accommodation on this unique island.

La Graciosa - The Island

Island life moves at a very slow pace on La Graciosa, and visitors should be prepared to slow down as soon as they arrive. The terrain here is totally volcanic and as such the beaches here are covered in rich volcanic soil. The stunning landscape of the island will be most apparent on your ferry journey from the port on Lanarote andapartments in La Graciosa for rent will enable you to immerse yourself into this unique way of life. With no natural water sources on the island to supply residents here, desalinated water is piped over from Lanzarote, but this shouldn’t be any cause for concern especially if you choose to stay in one of the modern and beautiful La Graciosa villas for rent.
