For the strictly indolent or intrepid, this off-shore island is ideal. Nothing but beaches and……. more beaches. There are only a few 4-wheel-drives on the island as there are no proper roads, only tracks. For the truly physical you can walk from one side to the other (2 hours) or, there are bikes for hire.
This is just the place for finally getting into Captain Corelli´s mandolin or improving your Mongolian grammar. Or, just getting in touch (at last) with your inner self!
There are just about enough shops restaurants and bars to supply the locals and the few tourists who´ve stumbled upon this remarkable little sandy island.
Right on the harbour is a great little restaurant, specializing in fish and pasta, and quite often, whilst sat enjoying a sundowner you can watch your supper being heaved ashore by the local fishermen (fish that is, not pasta!).

It´s important to note that there is no airport on La Graciosa which means flying to Arrecife, then transferring to Orzola for the 25minute ferry ride. No cars are allowed either so it´s best if we arrange transport for you.
Also, there are not the medical facilities we´re used to in Europe, only a local GP. Any emergencies would need treating in the hospital in Arrecife.
Deep-sea fishing is to be recommended from La Graciosa but reasonable notice will be required for us to set everything in motion.
