Pitaya Festival

 Pitaya Festival


You should really check this out! Pitaya Festival, the event with the most soul on the island of Lanzarote.

Pitaya Festival unites great concepts such as Community, art, and joy; and was created in order to bring together all those who want to spend a relaxed day with friends in an idyllic outdoor need tor setting.



This cool festival is part of Laura Sanz's project, PITAYA COLIVING, who after having lived abroad for many years, saw the need to create a community and help her group of digital nomads and entrepreneurs. Laura is preparing a coliving space in Lanzarote for like-minded people who work remotely *wink wink* ;)  traveling around the world and, who have chosen the island as an anchor point, not only to share a coworking and coliving space but also to enjoy their time for leisure. 




Pitaya Festival offers a day of complete disconnection, with several yoga sessions, the possibility of resting or taking a dip in the pool, eating a healthy brunch with local products, walking, and shopping at the Canarian Market and showroom, which gives to meet amazing local brands. And all this is accompanied by live music.



Meet the Pitaya Festival Team!




Four more entrepreneurs make up the Pitaya Festival team. Alba Balada, Marilou Carrieu, Lucía Entrialgo and Tania López.


Tania López is the founder of FAMARA SOUL, the island jewelry brand that seeks to inspire women to trust in her power. Together with her group of colleagues, Tania is committed to offering the Pitaya community a selected Market with the most creative brands of artists and entrepreneurs from the Canary Islands. 

Lucía Entrialgo has been a champion of the creative industries since the beginning of her working career. She is a designer, entrepreneur, and restless mind, she is committed to the value of art, culture, and design as an engine of change in society. After living in several countries, she feels Lanzarote as a speaker of slow life and the Pitaya Festival as the meeting point for everyone to experience it firsthand.

Marilou Carrieu is a French yoga teacher. After years of working in marketing for international companies, she has decided to recycle herself to put the human being at the center of her activity again. She came to Lanzarote a year ago, and she has fallen in love with the magic of the island and has decided to stay.

Alba Balada came to yoga with the intention of toning her body and relaxing from the world of television where she worked. She very soon changed her whole life. She founded the Calma Campus, where she designs personalized quality of life and stress reduction programs, and she has her yoga studio (and much more) in Famara. Wherever she goes, she expands calmness, a term she coined herself, to train the ability to stay calm.



At the Pitaya Festival, Marilou and Alba propose a yoga workshop with a common theme. The idea is to offer two different and yet complementary types of yoga with the intention of delving into the limitations of the body and the mind.

The synergy of these five women together is unstoppable and the Festival is on its way to becoming one of the benchmark monthly meetings in Lanzarote.

The next PITAYA FESTIVAL will be on January 8, 2022.

Barranco del Quiquere (Puerto del Carmen's nudists' haven)

Image
Crystal clear, turquoise-colored waters with spectacular views of Lobos Island and Fuerteventura, where you can bathe while being completely nude… welcome to your next favorite spot!  The quality of the seabed of the Barranco del Quíquere is outstanding, highlighting the exquisite palette of blue tones. Take advantage of your quick dip in the sea by bringing along goggles and a snorkel, to contemplate its rich biodiversity. It should also be noted that the Atlantic at this latitude is always calm (except for the very few days a year when the southern storm is in Lanzarote). To get comfortable you will have to find some nook of volcanic stone. The Barranco del Quíquere is one of the most suggestive nudist strongholds in Lanzarote. Located a few kilometers south of Puerto del Carmen, it is made up of a set of natural volcanic stone coves, on the slopes of small cliffs that protect them from the wind. The atmosphere is extremely peaceful and accompanies the landscape. The big and blue Atl

Tenesar and its Charco de Los Hombres

Image
One of Lanzarote's less-known coastal towns, Tenesar is truly a beautiful little spot to appreciate Lanzarote's western coast. Part of the municipality of Tinajo, Tenesar contains quaint houses and narrow streets with cute names (fun fact: most streets are named after sea creatures).   A beautiful little place to get away from all of the noise and traffic of the island. Most Tenesar residents live in the town during the summer only, the number of barbecues, chairs, tables, and sunbeds represent the way of life in Tenesar... Great company, great food, and even better views! It doesn't stop there though! Tenesar's beautiful coast contains many natural pools (otherwise known as Charcones or Charcos) pssst if you haven't checked out my other blog post about Los Charcones, here's the link:  https://www.lanzarotedigitalnomads.blog/2021/05/los-charcones-beautiful-natural-pools.html , and here's one of my favorite natural pools on the island: El Charco de Los Hombre

Zonzamas, Lanzarote’s ancient towns

Image
 Can you imagine visiting Lanzarote before the 13th Century? Let’s rewind and go back in time together! The town of Zonzamas is an archaeological site of the pre-Hispanic culture of the Majos (the indigenous population of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura), located between the Caldera de Zonzamas and the mountain Montaña de Maneje, in the municipalities of Teguise, Arrecife and San Bartolomé.  It is a national historical-artistic and archaeological monument since April 27, 1979 and BIC since September 7, 2000.  The name Zonzamas or Sonsamas is applied to different geographical features in the area and corresponds to the king Majo of Lanzarote at the time when the Biscayan Ruiz de Avendaño visited the island around 1377, to whom the construction of this town is attributed so that the so-called "Cave or Palace of Zonzamas" would be his royal residence. The latter is documented in Le Canarien's chronicle and it is assumed that the last king of the island, Guadarfia, lived in this
