UD Lanzarote is a Spanish football club. The home stadium is the Ciudad Deportiva in Arrecife on Lanzarote, Canary Islands. The team has been playing in the Tercera Division since 2010/11.

UD Lanzarote has been playing professional football since 1980 when it makes its debut in the Tercera Division. After a 3rd place in 1999 it promotes via the play-offs for the first time to the Segunda Division B. The performance there only lasts one season. After relegation in 2000, the club becomes the following year's champion and again reaches the Segunda Division B via the play-offs. In the first seasons, the club plays along for promotion and despite a championship in 2003/04, the club is unable to continue the upward trend. The club has been in the middle bracket for the past two seasons. In the 2004/05 season, the club stood out by eliminating RCD Mallorca in the Copa del Rey.
