Lanzarote is a duty free island and many bargains are to be had especially with small electrical items and perfumes where you can end up paying prices around 30% cheaper than back home though we do recommend that you haggle and also go prepared by knowing exactly what it is you wish to purchase. The shops are open late into the evenings so there is always plenty of time to shop. The main pedestrianised shopping area of Playa Blanca is only a few minutes walk from the villa.

There is a large shopping centre called ‘Biosphere’ in Puerto del Carmen as well as ‘Deiland’ at Playa Honda. Arrecife, the islands capital has many shops and a department store along its main pedestrianised street and is woth an afternoon visit.

For more bargains and crafts try the many local markets such as Playa Blanca on Wednesday and Saturday mornings. The market at Teguise is the biggest on the island and is held every Sunday.

For general food supplies then there is the Spar shop virtually opposite Casas del Sol which has everything. For larger supermarkets there is HyperDino in the centre of Playa Blanca as well as a Netto’s and another Spar, all only a few minutes walk away.
