About Costa Teguise Observatory
Public information about this specific site is limited, and no confirmed details about its founding, instruments, or operating group are currently available. It is listed in Costa Teguise, a resort town on Lanzarote's east coast.
Location & getting there
The Canary Islands, including Lanzarote, are internationally recognised for clear, dry conditions well suited to astronomy, which is why the archipelago is also home to major research facilities on Tenerife and La Palma. Costa Teguise sits on Lanzarote's east coast, with the island's dark volcanic landscape offering good night-sky conditions away from resort lighting.
