  • Top Ten Walks
    Walks In Lanzarote 10 Lanzarote walks with dozens of full colour photos A Lanzarote Information Guide Welcome to our quick guide to 10 walks pretty much anyone can do in Lanzarote. We have done each of these walks, and enjoyed them all, and as you’ll see, we took plenty of photos for you, so you know in advance what to expect. If you haven’t walked the island before, we urge you to do so - Lanzarote has so much more to offer than the resort areas, and never ceases to surprise and delight us. These aren’t full-on “walking guides,” so they don’t have route maps, with elevation changes and so on. We’d suggest looking at Google Maps if you need that kind of detailed information prior to embarking on any of them, but they’re all fairly strait forward walks which can be tackled by anyone who is reasonably fit. Remember when walking to take a mobile phone, sun cream, some sort of head covering and plenty of water so you can stay hydrated. We hope you enjoy these walks as much as we did.

  • The Anglican Parish of St Laurence in Lanzarote
    The Anglican Parish of St Laurence in Lanzarote. Parish Profile. Our Presence on the Island St Laurence is an active Anglican Parish in Lanzarote, spread across three distinct areas of this beautiful holiday island, which has been declared a World Biosphere Reserve. Each area incorporates, or is close to, one of the three main tourist centres of Costa Teguise, Puerto del Carmen, and Playa Blanca. There is no Anglican Church building. Our services are held in the Roman Catholic churches in those towns. Our only building on the island is the Chaplaincy house in Puerto del Carmen. Playa Blanca Puerto del Carmen Nazaret Communion services are held each Sunday at Puerto del Carmen at 12.30 pm, and at Playa Blanca at 5.00 pm. On the first and third Sunday of each month, a communion service is held at 10.00 am in the small village church of Nazaret. Apart from two ecumenical services each year, services for special festivals, for wedding blessings and for funerals, there are no mid-week services. Our chaplain undertakes some 40 wedding blessings each year. Last year (2015) there were 10 funerals and 2 baptisms. Pastoral activities on the island, include hospital visits and home communions. There are British schools on the island but, despite overtures from previous Chaplains, contact has not been encouraged, mainly due to the mixtures of denominations and nationalities. During the interregnum, many aspects of the Parish’s ministry have continued, including monthly fellowship lunches, fund-raising events, and some publicity activities. Occasions when we can meet together as a Parish are important to foster a sense of unity between the three congregations.

  • The Case of the Canary Islands
    sustainability Article A Decision-Making and Governance Framework for the Renewal of Tourism Destinations: The Case of the Canary Islands Manuel Rodríguez-Díaz 1,* and Rosa Rodríguez-Díaz 2 1 Department of Economics and Business Management, Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 35017 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain 2 Department of Financial Economics and Accounting, Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 35017 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-928-452-802 Received: 10 December 2017; Accepted: 21 January 2018; Published: 25 January 2018 Abstract: Tourism destinations in advanced stages of the life cycle need to update their lodging offers and infrastructures. The main problem is that new destinations are planned according to the new preferences of customers, creating critical problems in older destinations related to the architecture of the buildings, size of the rooms, dimension of lodgings, complementary offer, and infrastructures. The aim of this paper is to develop a decision-making and governance framework for the renewal of destinations in an advanced stage of the life cycle that require the renovation of the lodging offer and infrastructures in order to increase their competitiveness and sustainability. The decisions were planned and carried out in the Canary Islands by stakeholders involved in the public and private sectors. The evaluation of actions to renew the lodgings and infrastructures through special legislation, leadership, sources of financing, and investment guarantees is presented to determine the level of success obtained. Because the Canary Islands is one of the main tourist destinations in Europe, the actions and procedures presented can be used in other destinations with similar characteristics.
