Despite its youth, only having previously hosted two events, MalpaÃs has become one of the most interesting and enriching parts of the island. The city of Arrecife, with a festival that has managed to become one of the most relevant of its nature in the Canary Archipelago, has become a reference point for these types of events in the Canaries. The street theater and circus shows, the puppets and mimes for the young audience, and the music and other cultural shows all bring a special energy to Lanzarote’s capital every March.
This lively sporting contest, organized by the Real Club Victoria from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, takes place on the last Saturday of September every year. Participants have to swim a little under a mile, the distance that separates El Risco de Famara beach (Lanzarote) and Caleta del Sebo, on La Graciosa island of the Chinijo Archipelago (in the northeast of Lanzarote). All of those who have taken part have agreed that it is a very enjoyable experience and that it feels great to swim across the natural waters of the Parque Natural de Chinijo.
