Most of the petrol stations on Lanzarote are to be found on the main roads in and out of the resorts, as well as near the airport – the logical place to fill up hire cars before returning them.

The prices must make visitors from the rest of Europe envious, with Super 95 Octane costing about 77 cents per litre on our last visit, compared to around €1.40 per litre in Germany!

Some petrol stations are not even self-service, so be prepared for a short wait and to pay the attendant at the pump.
