Yaiza Guide

Yaiza is stunning. Twice voted Spain’s prettiest village, it has maintained its original charm and warmth, and with its traditional architecture is a superb example of a typical Canarian village.

The friendly people, the pace of life and its unique location to the Timanfaya National Park make it an extremely popular destination for those seeking more cultural surroundings and away from the bustle of the tourist resorts.

Yaiza is located between Playa Blanca and Puerto del Carmen and is approximately 20 minutes by car to the airport, and 5 minutes to the nearest beach at El Golfo. The village offers 2 supermarkets, hairdresser, bank, chemist, doctor’s, garage, church and several excellent restaurants. The Timanfaya National Park is on the doorstep, and the famous vineyards of El Grifo and Stratus are just a short drive away.
