Beaches

A significant part of the resort of Puerto del Carmen, take a spacious sandy beaches. We can say that this is the “beach” tourist resort of Lanzarote.

1 Playa Grande (also called Playa Blanca) is located in the lively resort location. In fact, from that beach and began to develop tourism on the island. Playa Grande is well suited for families with children, because there calm waves, gently sloping beach and there is no wind.

2 Playa de los Pocillos – the most extended and wide beach resort, but windy. In some places, its width at low tide reaches almost two hundred meters. Level just above the ocean beach, so after high tide are small “lakes” (cups). Once upon a time in this place the sea salt mined in the traditional way evaporating in the sun. If you like to urge the ball on the beach – you just here.

Beach Playa de los Pocillos smoothly into the sometimes too windy beach 3 Playa Matagorda, ending at the hotel Beatriz Playa.

At the opposite, western end of the resort are two small, but cute beaches 4 Playa Chica and Playa Fariones in the eponymous hotel. The descent into the water in places difficult stones on the beach is the dive center. Here, novice divers and made its first dive.
