Lanzarote offers a slew of intriguing experiences, from "timple" recitals to lunch cooked by geo-thermal heat. Helicopters or camels take you to the island's famous volcanoes. Don't plan on much walking: Saharan winds are usually sandy and/or hot. Visit the volcanic wasteland of Timanfaya National Park, the "miracle village" of Yaiza, spared by a fork in a river of lava, and Famara Beach. Don't miss Jameos del Agua, an underground entertainment complex built into volcanic rock under a beach.
