Lift off from Marina Rubicon and see Lanzarote from roughly 100 meters: ten minutes of airborne views combined with a short coastal boat ride. This activity is quick, family-friendly, and focused on clear sea-and-shore panoramas.

The boat slips away from the marina and the coastline slides open beneath you — white buildings, black lava ridges and the pale arc of Playa Blanca folding into the Atlantic. A woven parachute blooms behind the vessel and, within minutes, a single line tugs you upward; at roughly 100 meters the island rearranges itself into a new map of ridgelines and surf.

Use a zipped pocket or leave phones ashore — the launch and descent can jostle small items free.
