Costa Teguise

Situated on the coast in the central part of the island, Costa Teguise is one of Lanzarote’s main tourist resorts.

It is only a 20 minute drive from Arrecife Airport and is a convenient place from which to explore the islands tourist and cultural attractions, as well as the northern fishing villages of Arrieta and Orzola.

The island’s historic capital of Teguise is a 10 to 15 minute drive away and provides a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of Costa Teguise, unless of course you go on a Sunday, when the market is in full swing.

Costa Teguise is a purpose built resort, which started to take shape in the 1970s. This fact should not put you off, as it's development has been carefully managed over the years. It is currently undergoing something of a revival with many of the older developments being refurbished.

As with the rest of the island of Lanzarote, the Costa Teguise weather is usually very good all year round. The beaches are on the whole windier than those in other resorts, which explains the proliferation of windsurfers, however this can be a real benefit in the height of the summer.
