Haría
In the north of the island, this zone enjoys a special microclimate which has made it into a great green expanse. It has its own native flora, varied and full of botanical endemisms, strictly deriving from and attributable to the speical climantic factors, to the point that many of the plant species growing here cannot be found anywhere else in the rest of the archipelago.
It is better known by its colloquial name, the "Valley of the ten thousand palm trees"; here one can find a large range of tropical plants such as palm trees, cacti, prickly pears, etc...; the higher humidity here has led to the development of a wide variety of vegetation, though agriculture is not a important here as in other zones of the island, for the terrain is steeper and more mounainous than in other parts.
Here the visitor can enjoy one of the island's most exceptional landscapes, dominated by the Risco de Famara where the Peñas del Chache are to be found, the highest point of the island (670 metres); there are also teh delighful beaches of pure white sand at Orzola, or the innumerable caves and underground grottoes created by one of the volcanoes which gave rise to Malpaís de la Corona.
Haria is lucky enough to have many of the island's tourist attractions, such as the Jameos del Agua and the Cueva de los Verdes, two sections of the same volcanic tube in which the caprices of nature have created shapes of great beauty, and El Mirador dle Río, a vantage point which rests on the steep cliff of the Haria coastline.
These three features have in common the fact that they bear the unmistakable insular seal of man-nature fusion and harmony, a union once agin here enhanced to the utmost to create genuine works of art.
The stunning waters of Lanzarote are complemented by some of the best Marinas of the Atlantic.
