3. Jameos del Agua ? The Water Hollow ? Magic Caves
These caves are well worth the visit. Jameos del Agua was formed over 3000 years ago. The Jameos (translates as ?hollow?) was formed as a result of gas explosions within a volcanic bubble, and over time the seawater has filled the tunnels until as now a lagoon has been formed. The lagoon is home to thousands of tiny albino blind crabs. The lagoon with its turquoise water is a real must to see. (This gets very busy in the tourist peaks season, so our advice would be to go early) Open daily from 09.30 ? 19.00

4. Cesar Manrique Foundation
A ?must do? visit for those who are intrigued by the unique sculptures, which are to be found almost everywhere on the island; from the airport to the centre of many roundabouts on the island.
The foundation is to be found in what was Cesar Manrique?s house, formed among the volcanic caves; it is the home of many varied artists works, such as Picasso, Miro and Klee. A real insight into the ?soul? of the island and its people. Open Mon ? Sat 10.00-18.00

8. Timanfaya National Park ? The Fire Mountain
If sightseeing isn?t very high on your agenda. Make an effort to go to Fire Mountain. The views to be had are truly unique to this island.

Formed between 1730 and 1736, when more than 30 separate eruptions devastated the landscape and destroyed many local villages. The last eruption was in 1824. Though proof of the volcanoes activity is still seen by the demonstration on the mountain. A short coach trip around the national park will allow you to see the strangest of landscapes, with stopping points to get all your photos.

At the foot of the mountain, you can enjoy a 15-minute ride on a camel! A popular leftover from the Islands past. Open daily 09.00 ? 18.00

9. El Golfo
A very popular, traditional Canarian village blessed with a number of excellent restaurants serving freshly caught fish as a speciality. With the sea lapping onto the beach just a few metres away. You can dine in a very relaxed atmosphere and simply enjoy the surroundings. A perfect way to spend a lazy afternoon. Arrive early to avoid disappointment!!

Adjacent to El Golfo is La Laguna de Los Ciclos, a small lake set in what?s left of the inner rim of a volcano. The water in the lake is the most vivid colour green. The colour is an intense green, which is caused by algae and makes for spectacular viewing against the black beach.
