Timanfaya National Park, one of Lanzarote's main attractions. Volanoes were active here from 1730 to 1736 shaping this part of the island
Visitor Center (which had a volcano grill, i.e. the just dug a 6 meter deep hole which releases enough heat on a permanent basis to roast chicken)
There were some pipes drilled into the ground in front of the visitor center. Within 2 seconds after the ranger poured in water, it came back out as a Geysir
There are also camels for tourists (the Sahara is actually just 115km across the Ocean)
