Lanzarote Weather

Lanzarote enjoys a year-round good climate, with temperatures hot but not blistering in the summer and pleasantly mild in winter. Rainfall is not excessive during any of the seasons, making the island the perfect place to visit at any time of the year.

Winter

Winters (November to February) see average daytime temperatures of between 20°C and 25°C, while rainfall peaks in December and January, with between 135mm and 250mm. For those wanting a beach holiday, the winter is probably not the best time to visit.  However, for anyone looking for respite from the cold temperatures of their own country’s winter season, Lanzarote is the perfect place to be. If you plan to holiday at this time then bear in mind that the evenings can get a little chilly and it’s wise to pack a sweater or a light jacket.

The additional presence of the northeast trade winds takes the edge off the heat and adds to Lanzarote’s appeal as a summer holiday destination.
