Electricity Information

The current used in Lanzarote and throughout the Canary Islands is 220 Volts AC 50Hz and plugs have two round pins as found on the European continent.

Travellers from the USA will require a voltage converter.

Travellers from the UK will require a plug adapter and this is best bought in the UK as they are hard to find in the Canaries. Main sockets require round-pin plugs.

Power cuts do happen occasionally, so you’ll always be on the safe side if you bring your own torch with you!
