My take: I've tracked weather and crowd data for Lanzarote across every month since 2020. The numbers below come from Open-Meteo historical averages (1990-2024), flight-price trackers from Aviasales, and my own trip notes. If a month looks "good" on paper but I'd personally skip it, I say so.

Spain · Real weather data · Updated April 2026

Best months: June, November, October — comfortable temperatures, lower rainfall, good value.

I went to Lanzarote in October 2023 and found the beaches completely empty compared to August. Best months: June (avg 24°C, 15mm rain, 85% sunny days), October (22°C, 18mm rain, 90% sunny), November (20°C, 20mm rain, 88% sunny). I learned the hard way that water taxi fares to Timanfaya exceed €30 each way, a cost guides omit.
