Activities
The cultural centre “Arte de Obra” is situated in the north of Lanzarote – directly in the heart of the valley of 1.000 palm trees – in the village of Haría. A small, typical place with loads of charme. Just a few steps away from Arte de obra you find two supermarkets, a market hall, bars and restaurants, pharmacy, church and the post office.
Every Saturday takes place a handicraft market on the village square – the “plaza” – where you definitely will find a nice souvenir of Lanzarote.
The next sandy beach in Arrieta you can reach in 7 minutes by car, where you find as well a bar and a restaurant.
It is possible to do different walking tours directly from the centre or hiking in the near surrounding area (approach by car).
Also you can reach in very short time some places of interest – most of them created by the famous artist César Manrique: Jardín de Cactus, Mirador del Río, Jameos del Agua und die Cuevas de los Verdes.
