In this particular article (I have written others about beaches in other areas of the island), I will cover beaches in Yaiza, one of the seven municipalities of Lanzarote. This part of Lanzarote is occupied, principally, by the town of Playa Blanca (once a sleepy fishing village), but in the midst of a major transformation. Playa Blanca extends from the western Pechiguera Point (Where our villa is located in La Goleta, Faro Park) to Coloradas...more

Teguise is one of the largest and most popular of Lanzarotes seven municipalities. It includes Famara (in the north) and Costa Teguise, (in the south). If your mathematical formula for fun on the beach is "Water=Waves", then you should be heading for the northern coastline that takes in Famara (and neighbouring La Santa - See article "13 Lanzarote beaches - Tinajo").Our first of six beaches being reviewed in this area is known as Famara, measuring 6 kilometres long by 100 m (the biggest beach in Lanzarote). Fine golden sand, a constant wind and ever present strong swells against a backdrop of mountains makes this worth visiting, but the strong currents in this area can be a problem, so keep small children well within your reach.The surf in this part of the island is world famous (so it's hardly surprising that Famara is often referred to as the Hawaii of Europe). Large waves crash into the beach, and roll up the fine white sand towards the beach road, making it a surfers paradise. Behind the road you'll find a large area of sand dunes, a perfect sheltered base from which to view proceedings. The village nearby has a few restaurants and cafe bars where you can enjoy a quiet...more

Once home to the mighty Inca Empire, Peru is probably best known for the historic site of Machu Picchu. While Machu Picchu is arguably one of the world's top archaeological sites, Peru also boasts a wealth of archaeological sites which detail civilizations far more ancient than the Inca. Experts have found evidence of human civilization going back 20,000 years, which makes Peru a truly awe-inspiring destination. Peru attracts adventurers of all kinds, and provides them with a playground on which to test their skills. Many come to climb in the Andes, where the highest peaks are over 22,000 feet and the relatively mild climate offers opportunities found nowhere else in the world. A large number of visitors plan beach holidays to Peru in order to take advantage of the stunning coastline. But perhaps one of the most compelling features of Peru is the legendary surfing that can be found here. Although it is not widely known, it was in Peru that the very first evidence of humans riding the waves was found. While surfing has been going on in Polynesia for hundreds of years, there is proof that surfing has been in practice in Peru for more than 2,000 years. Peru is truly a surfer's...more
