Most of the petrol stations on Lanzarote are to be found on the main roads in and out of the resorts, as well as near the airport – the logical place to fill up hire cars before returning them.
The prices must make visitors from the rest of Europe envious, with Super 95 Octane costing about 77 cents per litre on our last visit, compared to around €1.40 per litre in Germany!
Some petrol stations are not even self-service, so be prepared for a short wait and to pay the attendant at the pump.

I got a shock in the UK when I last filled up the hire car before flying back, it was nearly 80 Pounds! The most petrol I can squeeze into my car here is 40 Euros and you're right I don't even have to get out of the driving seat – there is a very nice man that does it for me 🙂
