Where there used to be a harbor, the eruption of Timanfaya created a lagoon: this is where the story of the Janubio salt pans begins - the biggest and oldest on Lanzarote.
Discover this protected natural site with your local guide: you will take home the secrets and artisan methods of salt production, guarded by the descendants of the Benlliure family for over 127 years.
The best thing is that you can get to work just like them, preparing your own jar of Canarian "white gold" to take home with you. Just think: at one time, it was used as currency.
The pans are a mosaic of white with pink veining, with the sea and volcanic earth behind them. The perfect backdrop for a tasting of sea salt, with local cheese, wine or a craft beer.
But that's not all. Among the vineyards of Geria, you'll get to know the unique wines of the region, obtained from the dark lava that has been tirelessly worked by the wine growers.
The landscape of hollows and stone circles, skillfully arranged to enable the vines to grow in this hostile environment, is even more beautiful while sipping a glass of mineral wine, don't you think?
