Beaches Puerto del Carmen
Puerto del Carmen, Lanzarote’s premier resort town, boasts some of the island’s most beautiful beaches, perfect for sunbathing, swimming, and water sports. The main attraction, Playa Grande, stretches over 1.2 kilometers of golden sand and offers calm, clear waters ideal for families. Here, you can relax on sun loungers, rent umbrellas, or enjoy water activities like jet skiing and parasailing. The beach promenade, lined with shops, restaurants, and bars, adds to the lively atmosphere, providing plenty of options for dining and entertainment.
For a more intimate setting, visit Playa Chica, a smaller, secluded beach that is a favourite among divers and snorkelers. Its calm waters and rich marine life make it one of the best spots on the island for underwater exploration. Playa de los Pocillos, located just north of Playa Grande, offers a wide stretch of sand and is ideal for windsurfing and kitesurfing due to its breezier conditions.
Whether you’re looking to relax, explore, or enjoy exciting water sports, the beaches of Puerto del Carmen offer something for everyone. Experience the best of Lanzarote’s coastlines in this vibrant seaside town.
