Mirador de Ermita de las Nieves
16th-century hermitage and clifftop viewpoint over Famara and northern Lanzarote.
Beside the hermitage dedicated to Lanzarote's patron saint, this high point looks out over the dizzying Famara cliff and the neighbouring island of La Graciosa. It is one of the island's best-loved natural balconies, especially at sunset, when wind and light sketch out the northern coastline.
