In the
previous post we gave you a few reasons to visit the island at Christmas.
Today, in Canarian Transfer, we will
talk about what to do in Lanzarote at Christmas.
Organizing Christmas parties is a kind of ritual. Whit whom will you have dinner on Christmas Eve? Where will you prepare your Christmas food? What about New Year's Eve? The solution is very easy: come to Lanzarote for Christmas holidays!
Although
the good weather does not announce that it is Christmas, Lanzarote is
transformed to welcome the holidays.
There
are many places in which usually Christmas lights are installed and the streets
are decorated with festive elements. In addition to the typical garlands, many
palm trees are dressed with lights to enhance their beauty.
It’s
possibe to find also some Christmas
trees, as the one that has been inaugurated few days ago by the Cabildo of
Lanzarote in Arrecife. The impressive multicolored structure has 15 meters high
and more than 35,000 of LED lights.
In
Arrecife you can visit a magnificent nativity scene with beautiful models of
historical buildings in the city.
Other villages,
such as Tinajo, this year used new
decorations, such as the Santa Claus’s waterwheel. It’s installed in the
roundabout at the entrance of the town, it gives a colourful welcome to the
visitor.
For those who are asking what to do in Lanzarote at Christmas,
a good alternative is to take a route through the different nativity scenes on
the island.
On one hand, there are static nativity scenes all over
the island. Almost all towns set up their own, which they proudly display
during the Christmas season.
On the other side, different places of the island present
their living nativity scenes. A great way for the inhabitants to participate to
the Christmas tradition. Among them, the one in Tinajo stands out, because it
also has little animals from the area.
Everyone wants to participate!
Although the list of goof nativity scenes in Lanzarote is
endless, in addition to the one in
Tinajo, we can highlight the one in Haría, in the Valley of a Thousand Palmtrees. A
traditional nativity scene full of details in an incomparable environment, you
can't miss it!
The Nativity Scene
of Yaiza also deserves a special mention. More than 23 metres long, this
nativity scene takes you on a tour of some of the most emblematic spots on the
island.
All the town councils of Lanzarote make an effort to
present to their neighbours a complete
festive programme. For this reason, as the biggest as the smallest villages
propose diffrent activities at Christmas.
Visiting every corner of Lanzarote at Christmas is a gift
for the senses. It’s a different way to discover the island and its main
traditions.
Add to your to do list in Lanzarote at Christmas the Christmas
concerts, rides, courses for children, workshops, theater… Let’s plan if you
want to get involved in the Christmas spirit.
As if you are more related to the Magi, as if you prefer
Santa Klaus, in Lanzarote you will have the chance to see both of them.
According to the cristian tradition, the Magi came to the
portal with camel. If you are on the island, the best place to deliver your
letter to the Magi is by Echadero de camellos of Timanfay National Park. Enjoy
your camel tour and take advantage to deliver your letter to the magi.
And if you really like to see Santa Klaus’home you will
have the chance to do it by the Shopping Center Biosfera
Plaza.
The third floor of this shopping center in Puerto del
Carmen, receives each Saturday Santa Klaus in the afternoon since last November
the 16th. For the lucky who will spend
Christmas in Lanzarote, he will be there also on the 24th in the morning. It’s the best way to guarantee that your
letter won’t get lost during the journey!
Yes you
read it correctly. Among the different things that you can do in Lanzarote at
Christmas there’s the option to make a
sandman.
Due to the fact that there’s nos snow, the sand becomes
the best alternative to create a Christmas man. Even if it appears strange,
don’t forget to put in your luggage also bikini and a Christmas hat to decorate
your creation.
Don’t be surprised if you will see at the beach snowman
instead of sandy castle. It’s Christmas!
