What's on in Yaiza

Yaiza covers the dramatic south of Lanzarote, taking in the volcanic moonscape of Timanfaya National Park and, just outside it, La Geria — the island's extraordinary wine country, where vines grow in black gravel hollows ringed by little stone crescents to shelter them from the wind. The village of Yaiza itself is a tidy, low-rise place often named among Spain's prettiest, while the coast runs down to the resort of Playa Blanca and the Papagayo beaches.

Wine is the headline: the Wine Run threads through La Geria's vineyards and the Lanzarote Wine Festival fills Uga with tastings, alongside the Las Breñas patron saint fiestas for San Luis Gonzaga. Here's what's on while you're here.
