Hi,
We are thinking of going to either Tenerife, Lanzarote or Fuerteventura early in December.
We'll be taking my dad who is in his 80s.
We'd like to be coastal. We'd like somewhere with nice restaurants, nice walks, shops but not busy nightlife.
We'd like decent weather - warmish, dry and not too windy.
We have no idea which island to choose as we have no experince of any.

Which island and resort do you think would suit us?
Thank you

I would say that Playa Blanca in Lanzarote is very suitable if your mobility is restricted. It’s very flat with some lovely walks. It’s not a place for nightlife- although you can find it tucked away if you want. There are some lovely bars and restaurants. The weather has always been good for us in October, and not windy. Not been in Dec though. The resort is a bit more ‘up market’ than other resorts on the island, so you do pay a bit more for drinks etc. but it has a lovely marina and is very pretty.

I will chip in to say the market 3 x a week at the marina at playa blanca was one of the best we have been to. There is a good restaurant at the entrance to the marina with floor to ceiling windows with wonderful views of the sunsets.
