A walk through the history and traditions of authentic Arrecife
Arrecife became the capital of Lanzarote in the mid-19th century, leaving behind its fishing and seafaring roots.
Yet, traces of that past still live on in the island’s collective memory.
During this sunset walk, we’ll focus on the local economy before tourism and explore enduring traditions like the “buches” of the Arrecife carnival.
As we stroll through the historic centre, we’ll relive stories of work at sea, homecomings, and joyful celebrations.
