Janubio Salt Flats

These salt flats in the municipality of Yaiza are the largest in Tenerife and are still active thanks to the fact that the European Union has protected them and that the government considers them an area of scientific interest.

Yaiza Village Center

Highlight • Settlement

The town of Yaiza is in the extreme southwest of Lanzarote. It is an area with a lot of agriculture and tourism. This area has the first European settlement in the Canary Islands. In 1402 the colonization of the Archipelago began here by the nobility and the Crown of Castile.

For those who are interested, the conquest of the archipelago is divided into two periods. The first is the stately conquest by the nobility (for individual interests in wealth and titles). The second is the royal conquest carried out directly by the Crown that ended in 1496 when they took control of Tenerife.
