Looking towards the Atlantic from the bay of Arrecife, in the northeast of Lanzarote, standing tall as it has been for centuries is the Castle of San Gabriel. Built to defend the island from pirate attacks, it is today an obligatory visit in the capital of Lanzarote. It can be accessed by two bridges, the oldest, the Puente de las Bolas, together with the castle forms one of the picture postcards of Arrecife. This is an area not to be missed when visiting the town.
