The first thing I want to clarify is that this post will not talk about the places you can visit in Lanzarote.
Of course, there are many interesting and beautiful places to visit such as Timanfaya National Park, Los Jameos del Agua, La Cueva de Los Verdes, El Mirador del Rio, and the Cesar Manrique Foundation.
But I want to tell you about fun activities with a bit of action, so you can enjoy your time on the Island of Lanzarote to the fullest.
And no, I'm not going to talk about diving either.
One of the most special things about the Canary Islands is that you can do almost any outdoor sport or activity.
Although, I don't recommend that you come here with the intention of skiing or snowboarding.
From the north of Lanzarote, through Costa Teguise, Arrecife, Puerto del Carmen, and Playa Blanca, you have a complete island with lots of activities.
You have a complete island with lots of activities to enjoy with your family or friends and that are not the typical excursions to the typical tourist places, where everybody goes.
To do with your friends, your partner, or your children so that you won't have a single moment of boredom.
In or out of the water, you will find recommendations for all tastes in this post.

8. Dolphin Tour.
Did you know that 2 thirds of the planet's cetaceans pass through the Canary Islands or live nearby?
Yes, they do.
And you should not miss the opportunity to go out to sea to meet them.
The experience is well worth it, and you get to see them in their own habitat, not locked up in a swimming pool, doing pirouettes.
Besides, you don't only get to see dolphins.
It is very easy to come across other species of cetaceans. Fin whales, Sperm whales. Pilot whales and even Orcas have been sighted in Lanzarote's waters.
9. Catamaran Excursion.
If you fancy a day out sailing, a catamaran trip is ideal.
Another activity with family and friends is enjoying the ocean, the beaches, and the coast of Lanzarote.
You have a lot of options available: Excursions for a full day or just for several hours. Go in a group with more people or make a private cruise.
You have many possibilities at your fingertips. Choose the one you like the most and set off on another adventure.
