LAS PALMAS CATAMARAN FIELD GUIDE
Volcano Express: Sail to Lanzarote and Walk Timanfaya’s Moonlike Volcanoes
A 5‑hour catamaran day trip from Fuerteventura to Lanzarote that combines a submarine‑view ferry crossing, a bus tour of Timanfaya National Park, a La Geria wine tasting and coastal highlights.
Volcano Express: Sail to Lanzarote and Walk Timanfaya’s Moonlike Volcanoes.
Navega a Lanzarote y descubre otra isla: the Volcano Express collects you by coach from a preassigned pickup point on Fuerteventura, carries you on a submarine‑view ferry across to Playa Blanca, and then loops through Lanzarote’s southern highlights — Timanfaya’s lunar volcanic fields, the cone‑sculpted vineyards of La Geria, the Museo de Aloe Vera and a coastal run that includes the green lake and sheer cliffs — before returning you to Fuerteventura.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
Submarine‑view ferry across the channel
A submarine‑vision boat carries the group from Corralejo to Playa Blanca; the sea crossing lasts approximately 30 minutes and is the link between islands for the day’s land tour.
Timanfaya National Park: a lunar walking landscape
At Timanfaya you’ll walk among volcanic cones and unusual geological formations in a landscape often described as lunar — one of the signature sights on the southern circuit of the island.
La Geria vineyards and Aloe Vera insights
The tour includes a stop in La Geria to see the distinctive ash‑dug vine holes and a wine tasting, followed by a visit to the Museo de Aloe Vera to learn about this local crop and its uses.
What the day feels like
What the day feels like
The day moves from organized transfers to island exploration: a coach picks you up at an assigned point near your hotel and takes you to Corralejo, a glass‑bottom ferry (about 30 minutes) delivers you to Playa Blanca, and a comfortable, air‑conditioned bus then threads the southern route — Timanfaya, La Geria (with a tasting), the Aloe Vera museum and the coastal stretch to the Green Lake — before the return ferry and coach transfer back to your pickup point.
