Lanzarote Resorts


Beaches

Lanzarote is known globally as one of the best sun and beach destinations in the world, and Puerto del Carmen is one of the top reasons why! The golden beaches of this popular resort stretch over 6 km, with most backed by scenic promenades, and kitted with sunbeds and parasols to rent. Temperatures here are known to reach the high twenties every summer, keeping the water warm and perfect for a dip!


The top three best rated beaches in Puerto del Carmen are as follows:

  • Playa Blanca (Playa Grandé)
  • Los Pocillos
  • Playa Chica (Pila de la Barrilla)

Lanzarote also has a wonderful collection of small beaches, all either connected or within walking distance of each other. This includes Matagorda Beach, La Penita, El Barranquilla, Guacimeta Beach, and Medio Beach. While these beaches may be smaller than the three mentioned above, they are no less beautiful, and often they are less crowded!
