Tias

About Tias

Volcanic landscapes and Atlantic beaches shape Tías, a Lanzarote municipality beside Puerto del Carmen in Spain’s Canary Islands.

Dry volcanic slopes, black lava and bright Atlantic light give Tías a relaxed setting, while Puerto del Carmen adds a seafront and Playa Grande. Families can pair beach time with Rancho Texas Lanzarote Park, while Timanfaya National Park brings cratered terrain and guided routes.

Jameos del Agua, Mirador del Río and La Geria add Manrique-designed spaces and island wine country. Peak travel falls in July and August, and again in December and January; five to ten days is common, with Puerto del Carmen as the place to stay.
