For an island that is volcanic in nature and with rugged coastlines, Lanzarote has a fine selection of beautiful and unique beaches — some natural and some manmade. The beaches are spread around the island; however, the best ones are in the south and southeastern areas.

If you've been to Charco de los Clicos and are on your way to see the Salinas de Janubio, be sure to make the short detour to Los Hervideros. Not only will you pass by the beautiful Playa Montaña Bermeja, but you'll also be treated to some of Lanzarote's most incredible coastal and inland scenery.

One of the island's top attractions lies not on the surface but hidden underground beneath a massive lava field. The Cueva de los Verdes is an eight-kilometer lava tube formed 4,000 years ago when the La Corona Volcano erupted.

A scenic drive through La Geria for a little sightseeing is a must-do on Lanzarote. You'll quickly understand why this is one of the most interesting islands in Spain. The black and barren landscape has been transformed for agriculture. Set against the mountainous backdrop, it's a spectacular sight.

Truly one of the most spectacular volcanic landscapes in all of Spain, the Timanfaya National Park should definitely be at the top of your Lanzarote things to do list. This black wasteland of volcanic rock and rubble devoid of almost all life is a fascinating sight to behold.

Xigia Sulphur Beach definitely has a bit of an eggy smell about it, but it's beautiful nonetheless. Located down a rocky incline (wear proper shoes), the white pebble sand beach is set within a secluded cove, protected on three sides by sheer cliffs. The water is quite beautiful here, especially around midday, when the sun is directly overhead and makes the pebbles gleam.

A must-do for animal lovers, Askos Stone Park is in the north of the island, close to the village of Volimes, 30 kilometers from Zakynthos Town. It's highly recommended for children – animals here include deer, raccoons, peacocks, and tortoises, as well as a pony, donkey, goats, and chickens. You get a map and a bottle of water with the entrance ticket, and there are attendants in the park who can explain where the animals are from and how to feed them.

On the southeast coast, eight kilometers south of Zákynthos town, the wide bay of Laganás is home to several blissful stretches of sandy beach. Since the 1980s, it has been the island's top resort, with budget accommodation attracting young visitors in search of sea, sun, and fun.

With crystal-clear, blue-green water set against a backdrop of cliffs and caves, Porto Limnionas is one of the top secluded swimming spots on the island. In a wild location down an only recently paved road, not far from the small village of Agios Leon, it is gaining in popularity each year, and in the height of summer can get crowded. Sun-loungers can be rented from two local restaurants with terraces fronting the sea, and once in the water there is good snorkeling, along with caves and even an underwater bridge.

On the southwest coast, 14 kilometers from Zákynthos Town, close to the village of Kerí, a row of dramatic caves opens directly onto a crystal-clear turquoise sea, and exploring them with a mask and snorkel or scuba dive tank is one of the top things to do on the island – the lighting effects of the sun reflecting through the water and onto the cave walls makes for some amazing photos and video. It's possible to visit the caves as part of an organized excursion, or rent a boat and go independently.

On the northern tip of the island, at Cape Skinari, you'll find the most spectacular so-called Blue Caves. Inside, the bright blue sea reflects the color of the sky, which is mirrored off the walls of the caves and creates an absolutely magical azure and sapphire light scheme. You can visit the Blue Caves in a small glass-bottom boat, which departs from Agios Nikolaos (on the northeast coast, 32 kilometers from Zakynthos Town), or as part of the longer round-the-island cruise from Zakynthos Town.

Built in the 1660s, this proud mansion is one of the few old buildings to have survived the 1953 earthquake, which wiped out most of Zakynthos Town. It is owned by the Roma family, who decided to renovate it and opened it to the public in 2007. Inside, you can see period furniture, paintings, and books, giving you some idea of how local aristocrats lived in the centuries prior.
