The Fiestas of Nuestra Señora del Carmen are the most important and representative celebration in La Graciosa; Caleta de Sebo becomes the heart of the Gracioseran summer.

But if there is a moment that is especially moving, it is July 16th, the day of the Virgen del Carmen.

The Fiestas del Carmen also hold a very special place for Líneas Romero. For decades, we have connected Órzola and La Graciosa daily, being part of the island's day-to-day life and accompanying several generations of Gracioserans on their travels.

During these dates, our commitment goes beyond transportation. We want to make it easier for families, friends, and visitors to gather and share a celebration that represents the maritime identity of La Graciosa and the sentiment of an entire community.

How to get to the Fiestas del Carmen in La Graciosa?


The only way to reach La Graciosa is by ferry from Órzola, north of Lanzarote. During the Fiestas del Carmen 2026, Líneas Romero will reinforce the service with special ferry schedules to facilitate travel during peak days.
