For another more traditional festival more suitable for families with children, the Lanzarote International Horse trials takes place in the Fort San Pedro and is a prestigious event held in the heart of the capital.

IN legends it was a magical forest inhabited by the good fairy witch doctor ruah and her reputed black dog in search of the Holy Grail.

More likely it was a salubrious summer that brought the rain and fairytale winds to the island and a renewed sense of promise and inspiration.

To the new settlers the rain and fog outlet at Culebra, just west of the capital. Many a sailor has been gone before our weary sailboats reached the silent isle, and many a traveler hoping for a respite has been disappointed. Much has been written about the disappointed travelers and their goats, chagrin and all, but is it? After listening to the great majority opinion that the weather is ‘perfect’ and the beaches are ‘great’ and the people are ‘ Wonderful’ many have come to regret it.

Puerto del Rosario is the most southerly point of Cuba and a good starting point for tours along the north coast. It is the most developed area of the island and all the tourist areas are well organized and offer good value. If you like to eat out a lot it is probably best to go a little north of the city to sample the great restaurants along the way.

For those interested in exploration, renting vehicles there are a couple of large car hire companies operating in the major cities (which I found through Google searching and the help of Orlando SEO, or endless island hopping can be undertaken with a reputable travel agent or attempting to do everything on foot.
