Unlike many other travel companies we operate on a trust account model. Once we’ve paid the airline for your flights, the rest of your money is held in a trust account. We do not have access to this directly and can only withdraw funds when you are back home from holiday
All of our holidays that include flights are protected by the ATOL scheme from the moment you book. So if one of our suppliers fails, you’ll get your money back. If you’re left stranded abroad, a flight home will be arranged at no extra cost. Our ATOL number is 11806
As proud ABTA members we deliver the highest standards when it comes to our holidays. So if you book with us you’re guaranteed the best service. Our ABTA number is P8283, Y6720.
What’s the weather like in Lanzarote in January?
Sitting off the west coast of northern Africa, Lanzarote has warm weather all year round. The furthest east of the Canary Islands, January’s one of the coolest months of the year but you'll still get lots of sunshine with not much rain at this time.
Climatic influences
Lanzarote lies less than 130km from the Sahara Desert, but north easterly winds and the cooling Canary Current will keep you comfortable. On the other hand, the calima is a hot wind that blows in from Africa, and brings high temperatures and the occasional dust storm. Lanzarote’s quite flat, so there’s not much difference in weather across the island, although the south is generally a bit warmer and sunnier than the north.
Averages
The average high temperature in Lanzarote during January is 21ºC, making it a great place to go to for winter sun. You'll definitely need your beach gear and swimmers for the days, but as temperatures cool to 13ºC at night you should pack some warmer clothes for the evenings. The average sea temperature’s 19ºC, while humidity’s low and ranges from the late-50s to late-80s(%). Despite being one of the wettest months of the year, average rainfall’s still only 26mm over 4 rainy days.
Daylight
During January you can expect 11 hours of daylight with 7 hours of sunshine each day; the UV index will be moderate. Sunset’s just after 6pm at the beginning of January, and moves later towards the end of the month.
