There are views you never forget. On La Graciosa one such view is ever-present: the Famara massif on Lanzarote – cliffs over 400 metres high, directly above the El Río strait. If you have a balcony or terrace with this view, you need no other activity.

Restaurante Girasol – the best terrace in the restaurant

Restaurante Girasol has the widest harbour terrace of any of the restaurants. Ideal for sundowners and dinner with a view.

Montaña Amarilla – the ultimate vantage point

For those who really want the ultimate view: Montaña Amarilla – a 360-degree panorama, the entire Chinijo Archipelago at a glance. No table, no drinks – but the best view on the island.

The Famara moment: what makes it so special

Das Famara massif (>600 m) is always there: at breakfast, whilst snorkelling, at sunset. It is the constant that sets La Graciosa apart from every other island. These cliffs, so close and yet so far away – that is the visual centrepiece of the La Graciosa experience.

Practical tips

Which accommodation offers the best sea view?

Evita Beach – right on the beach. Look for private apartments near the harbour as an alternative on Airbnb.
