May on Lanzarote is 21 °C by day and 20 °C in the sea. The island is nearly empty in May: load 2 out of 4, and it goes no lower — it holds there from March to June and again in September and October.

May shows Lanzarote without either of its extremes: no winter visitors, no summer heat. That suits a scouting trip, and what to look at is the difference between places. In Arrecife, the capital, winter liveability is 5 out of 5, the hospital and the airport are 8 minutes away each, and the square metre is €1,942. In Teguise, Tías and Yaiza the winter score is 4 and the metre runs from €2,200 to €2,600. The island is small, and those twenty minutes of driving cost a third of the price per square metre.
