If you're after a splash of something different, but don't want to commit a whole day, then jump on this mini cruise to some of the most sought-after beaches on the island. Right at the southern tip of Lanzarote, Papagayo's untamed, rocky hills give way to a sweep of golden sand and clear waters. You'll sail on a catamaran from Playa Blanca or Marina Rubicon, with an option for free time at the marina, before heading on to Papagayo, where you'll drop anchor for around an hour of swimming, snorkelling or simply lazing on the catamaran's nets.
