Tias, Lanzarote

Tias, which overlooks Puerto del Carmen is the chief town of the municipality of the same name. For this reason, many of the administrative centres for Puerto del Carmen's local services are located here.

The town is named after the aunts of a former governor of Gran Canaria (the province to which Lanzarote belongs), Don Alonso Fajardo, the word 'tia' meaning aunt.

Tias has some small Spanish Bars and Restaurants and is worth a visit to escape the bustle of Puerto del Carmen.
