Temperatures in Lanzarote

The weather in Lanzarote is warm and sunny all year round.

January and February are the best months to relax. March blooms with daisies and in April you might want to wear warmer clothes for an evening outdoor cocktail. June, July and August are the hottest and busiest months of the year. When we went in September the weather was very mild, not many tourists and the sea just perfect for a dip. From October till December there can be occasional showers even though the sea temperature never goes below 20ºC.
