Most travellers heading here are on their way to La Graciosa. The transfer ends at the harbour in Órzola; ferry tickets to the island are bought separately from the ferry company.
Driving north to the top of Lanzarote
This is the longest common transfer from the airport. The driver heads round Arrecife and joins the LZ-1, the road that runs up the north-east side of the island through Tahíche, Guatiza and Mala. Around Guatiza you pass fields of prickly-pear cactus, once grown to farm cochineal.
Beyond Arrieta the land changes to the rough black lava of the Malpaís de la Corona, formed by the Monte Corona volcano. This is the area of the Jameos del Agua and Cueva de los Verdes lava caves. The road then drops to the sea at Órzola, a small fishing village at the end of the road.
Getting from the airport to La Graciosa
- The ferry
- Ferries cross from Órzola to Caleta de Sebo, the main village on La Graciosa, in roughly half an hour. Several sailings run each day, with fewer in the evening.
- Tickets
- Ferry tickets are not part of the transfer. Buy them from the ferry company, either in advance or at the harbour, and check the time of the last sailing for your arrival day.
- No cars on the island
- La Graciosa has sand streets and almost no motor traffic. Your private ride ends at the port, and you walk your luggage onto the boat.
Luggage and timing for an island hop
Because the streets on La Graciosa are sand, wheeled suitcases are hard work. A soft bag or backpack is easier, and a light load helps on the ferry ramp too. If you bring a bike, kayak or fishing gear, declare it when booking so a suitable vehicle is sent.
If your flight lands late in the evening, compare its arrival time with the last ferry before you plan the day. You can also book the transfer to a hotel or apartment elsewhere on Lanzarote and continue to Órzola the next morning.
