Ventura, part of the P&O Cruises fleet since 2008, is a modern, luxurious vessel that has brought travelers to stunning destinations worldwide. After disembarking, we’ll explore Marina Lanzarote, a bustling hub with over 400 boats and yachts, lined with shops, supermarkets, and a variety of restaurants that reflect the vibrant marina culture.
From there, we’ll take a scenic stroll along the city’s coastline promenade toward Arrecife’s historic center. Our first landmark is the Puente de las Bolas, an 18th-century stone bridge that once served as a defense structure. The bridge leads to the Castillo de San Gabriel, a 16th-century fortress originally built to protect the island from pirate invasions. As we walk, you’ll catch a glimpse of this iconic castle, a symbol of Arrecife's rich historical past.
Continuing our journey, we’ll arrive at Calle León y Castillo (Calle Real), Arrecife’s main street, known for its lively atmosphere and historical significance. This street is packed with shops, cafes, and local businesses, offering a taste of daily life in the city. We’ll walk the length of this street, eventually reaching Charco de San Ginés, a picturesque lagoon surrounded by charming fishing boats and waterfront restaurants. It’s the perfect spot to unwind with a cocktail or a meal while enjoying the scenic views.
Finally, we’ll make our way back to Marina Lanzarote and return to the Ventura, wrapping up our tour. This walk is a great way to explore the blend of modern and historical elements that make Arrecife such a unique destination. Whether you’re interested in history, local culture, or just want to experience the city’s charm, this tour offers a little bit of everything.
