A short 30-minute boat trip separates two completely different worlds: on one side, Lanzarote; and on the other, an island with no paved roads, no need to rush and a sense of calm that is increasingly difficult to find in our modern world.\u00a0 <\/span>La Graciosa is more than just an excursion. It\u2019s an opportunity to slow down and switch off. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Known as the \u201c<\/span>eighth island<\/b>\u201d, La Graciosa is part of the <\/span>Chinijo Archipelago<\/b>, one of <\/span>Europe<\/b>\u2019s most important protected natural areas. Here, you won\u2019t find paved roads or large developments\u2014only <\/span>sand, sea <\/b>and<\/span> silence<\/b>. The perfect destination to switch off and immerse yourself in the moment.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n La Graciosa<\/b> lies in the north of Lanzarote, opposite the small <\/span>port of \u00d3rzola<\/b>. Ferries depart from here several times a day, connecting the two islands.<\/span><\/p>\n There are essentially three ways to visit La Graciosa: <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n If this is your first visit, we strongly recommend the organised excursion, which allows you to enjoy the experience without worrying about ferry times or getting around the island. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you\u2019d like to learn about other must-see spots on the island before your excursion, we recommend our post <\/span>What to See on Lanzarote: 13 must-sees<\/b><\/a>, where <\/span>La Graciosa<\/b> occupies one of the top spots. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n You\u2019ll sense it as soon as you arrive in Caleta de Sebo: here, everything is different. <\/span><\/p>\n The streets are sandy, there are no paved roads, and life moves at a different pace\u2014slower and more authentic.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n But what really sets this island apart is its landscapes:\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n It\u2019s one of the few places in the Canary Islands where you get the feeling that there is still something new to discover.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Walking, cycling or off-road vehicles are the best way of getting around the island and discovering its most breathtaking spots:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n THB hotels tip<\/b>: If you\u2019re visiting independently, hiring a bike is a great option, but remember that the paths are sandy.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n There\u2019s no \u201cright\u201d way of discovering La Graciosa. The best option depends on how you like to travel and the type of experience you\u2019re looking for.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n We\u2019ve summed up the two main options so you can choose the one that best suits your preferences:<\/span><\/p>\n Take the ferry from \u00d3rzola to Caleta de Sebo and organise your day as you please.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n These excursions include a <\/span>transfer<\/b> from the main tourist resorts, <\/span>ferry, guide<\/b>, and in many cases, <\/span>lunch <\/b>and<\/span> activities<\/b>, so all you have to do is focus on having a really great day out. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Before setting off on your adventure, please take these recommendations into account:\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n And if you\u2019d like to learn more about the local culture, don\u2019t miss our post <\/span>Your must-have dictionary for visiting Lanzarote<\/b><\/a>.

\n<\/span>More rugged and dramatic. Here, the scenery takes centre stage. Swimming is more challenging due to the swell.<\/span><\/li>\n
