Lanzarote
A volcanic landscape so raw an artist redesigned half the island's architecture to match it, wine grown in individual pits scooped out of black ash, and a coastline built for swimming in every month of the year.
The best time to visit Lanzarote is Nov–Apr, when typical daytime highs reach about 23°C (74°F). Local time there is 17:45 (UTC+1).
