For most of the year, the time in Lanzarote is exactly the same as in the UK. Yes, you read that right: no fiddling with your watch, no foggy-brained calculations at the airport.
Lanzarote uses Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) in winter, just like Britain. So when it’s 3 p.m. in London, it’s a beautiful, sunny 3 p.m. in Playa Blanca. How refreshing is that?
