Map of Playa Blanca

About Playa Blanca, Lanzarote

Playa Blanca is the most southerly resort on Lanzarote and has many advantages for those who are looking for sun, sea and sand as well as good fish restaurants that generally host the catch of the day. From Playa Blanca's seafront you can see across to Fuerteventura, which is a mere 11km by ferry. Ferries cross to the island several times a day from the main harbour.

The front is populated with a variety of beaches, notably Playa Dorada, Papagayo (reckoned to be one of the best on the island) and Playa Flamingo. Playa Blanca has a relaxed atmosphere compared to the more upbeat nightlife in Puerto del Carmen, restaurants on the front feature a wonderful sea view - perfect for couples and families.

Owner's Tips

Playa Blanca also boasts two dive padi dive centres.
New bus service every 30mins goes to surrounding Playa Blanca areas and beaches.

2 very useful small supermarkets with most day to day items along with suntan lotions etc (with daily UK newspapers) couple of pubs (with SKY LIVE Satanta Football and premium matches) and some cafes and a Mediterraean restaurant. The bakery has just the most mouth watering cakes, bread, crossients etc, just 1 minute walk from the villa. Down the road there are some Excellent new local restaurants, a steak restaurant, Italian and fish restuarant. 15 mins walk.

Breathtaking coastal promenade walk (250m from the villa) to Playa Blanca about a 40 mins leisurely walk with lots of places to stop by for a drink or meal; But only about 15 mins walk to the nearest small beach Calimera or 2 mins drive. The beaches of Lanzarote are to die for!!

There is a 9 hole Pitch and Putt golf near Dorada Beach a few mins drive away. All par 3 and partners with the Canarian Federation of Golf. That means you need to have a handicap to be allowed on the course. Two other golf courses are 30 mins drive.

There are two excellent golf courses within a 30 minute drive at Costa Teguise and Tias, both are open to visitors.

Or hire a car and go out of Playa Blanca and discover the Papagayo beaches, try Femmes for an early dinner, Golfo is great for lunch and a stroll. Graciaosa (via the ferry at Orzola is good for a day trip if feeling adventurous).

Mirador del Rio worth the diversion for stunning views and to Arrieta after for lunch and a swim... that should get you started. On an evening try Bodega at Uga for a stunning dinner!! Or nearer, please try La Bocaina outskirts of Playa Blanca, a fantastic Torrnedos Rossini.
