Welcome to the Gay Guide to Lanzarote

Your online guide to the Canarian island of opposites. It’s so not gay, but is the perfect place for a gay holiday with friends, family, as a couple or just yourself. Soak up the sub-tropical sunshine on a beach; party all night Canarias style. Experience the lasting legacy left by one of the island’s greatest artist; be inspired by the active volcanoes that inspired him.

There’s something about Lanzarote, the mixture of earth, water, fire and air combine with the low-rise nature of the island to give you a more natural and rustic Canarian experience. It’s magnetic, and it’ll leave you wanting for more.

Explore the beaches, bars and restaurants, check out the island’s activities - enjoy a day sailing on a Catamarn, or dine at Omar Sharif’s house. Guide yourself around the island’s history, art, culture and find out why Lanzarote is a unique Biosphere Reserve - there's much more on the island at info. Lanzarote has it all.

How does it work?

Our team has visited every bar, restaurant or venue listed on the Gay Guide to Lanzarote. We've spoken to owners, and checked that the venue has a policy which is not detrimental to GLBT people who live on or visit Lanzarote. We also rely on your feedback - so if you'd like to recommend a shop, bar, restaurant or service on Lanzarote which other gay people may be interested in there's a contact us link at the bottom of every page, or you can leave a message in the Lanzarote Gay Forum.

The Gay Guide to Lanzarote is driven by what you would like to see here, we appreciate any comments on the service you receive as a gay customer on Lanzarote. This helps us to build up a picture of equality on the island, and your views will influence the Lanzarote Gay Guide, your guide to Gay Holidays on the Canarian Winter Sun Island of Lanzarote.
