Lanzarote is a popular holiday destination in the Atlantic Ocean and it is the fourth largest Canary Island (after Fuerteventura, Tenerife and Gran Canaria). It is located about 1000 km from mainland Spain and 127 km from the African coast. As a part of Spain, it retains an upscale, European feel. With 800 million years of history, Lanzarote is the oldest island within the Canary Islands archipelago. The easternmost Canary Island, Lanzarote is known for its widespread volcanic terrain (a tourist attraction in itself) formed by extensive volcanic activity in the early 18th century. In 1993, the United Nations Education Culture and Science Organization (UNESCO) protected Lanzarote by naming the island a biosphere reserve.
