Lajares is a quiet and laid back village where you can feel less like a tourist and more like a local. You will find some lovely authentic restaurants, a yoga retreat centre and a Superdino supermarket which means that you won't have to travel far to do some grocery shopping. Lajares is a popular with surfers despite the fact that it's not actually situated on the coast. Surfers use Lajares as a base and travel to El Cotillo or Corralejo during the day to ride the waves.
