Lanzarote Surf Spot Map

Lanzarote is found to the north of Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands - the Hawaii of Europe! The surf, swell, weather and location are almost identical to that of Fuerteventura and even the waves are similar. It can get big, powerful waves firing off its reefs throughout October to March, but is consistent enough throughout the rest of the year to score good waves whenever you visit. The Island picks up swells on its North, East and West coasts.

No matter what level of surfing you are currently at there is something to offer you a good time at Lanzarote. Experienced surfers can test their mettle on waves such as La Santa Left (The Slab) and El Quemao - the Pipeline of the Canary Islands. For those less experienced or novice surfers there are beach breaks and also surf schools to learn with. Famara is a good place to head for, a huge arc of sand catching the swells for you to surf. There is also plenty of opportunity to explore on your own, or head to neighbouring islands.

If you are serious about surfing and travel you will need a decent surfing guide book. Take a look at the Stormrider Guide Europe, Stormrider Guide North America and the World Stormrider Guide books. We cannot emphasise just how good these books are.
