Many visitors make their way to Teguise on Sundays to visit the weekly market and for those not on an organised bus tour the main problem will be where to park.
Although it is possible to park in the streets around the centre of the town, these are often blocked off for the day with police on hand to make sure that only the locals use them.
For everyone else there are the lava fields on the outskirts, where your car will be guarded for a charge of 1.50EUR. Often these display a notice with the distance to the market – be aware that the first ones you see will not be the closest!
But what’s so special about a bouncy castle? Well, firstly this is not just one bouncy castle – but a whole group of them in different shapes and sizes. Whilst are the more traditional type seen at fun fairs, others are to climb up using ropes or even with holds similar to those on climbing walls. One even incorporates a water slide.
There are also two trampolines, a merry-go-round and a stand serving food and drink at reasonable prices. There is also a special area set aside for children under 6.
We spent a pleasant day there and stayed for over 4 hours!
