Like some of the other Canary Islands, Lanzarote is Volcanic in origin. Many parts of Lanzarote look as if their from another world, this is all due to the volcanic eruptions that taken place in the 18th & 19th Century. The dry climate meant there was lack in erosion which means that the volcanic landscapes looks as if the eruptions had just happened.
