Autumn in Lanzarote

The time of year that many Lanzarote residents most look forward to is finally upon us.
Autumn in Lanzarote marks the change from the windier summer weather. Autumn brings light winds, warm water and clear blue skies. As the air mass changes so does the visibility and therefore the type of light. The horizon becomes pin sharp and the light becomes bluer and clearer. Many photographers visit the island for this type of light and guaranteed good weather. Not to mention the breath taking scenery.
The Lanzarote sports people also welcome this time of year. Surfers are happy as the first swells of the winter season start to bring in the bigger waves. The reefs will now have waves after being flat for most of summer. The hang gliding and paragliding pilots love the winters in Lanzarote. Lighter winds and clearer skies bring ideal flying conditions. Whilst the rest of Europe is gripped by cold weather pilots can come to Lanzarote for a welcome break, warm weather and some spectacular flying.
