La Graciosa

The eighth island is also the simplest, and that's where its charm lies. La Graciosa has no paved roads: you get around on sand streets, on foot or by bike, from the village of Caleta del Sebo. It's part of the Chinijo archipelago, the largest marine reserve in Europe, and its beaches are among the wildest left: Playa de las Conchas, Playa Francesa, turquoise water and almost no one. You reach it by ferry from Órzola, in Lanzarote, in barely half an hour. It's the perfect plan to truly switch off. Here you'll find its beaches and spots to see, for a day that tastes of another time.
