Playa Blanca Travel Guide

Lanzarote Playa Blanca.jpg
Overview: This quiet resort situated in the very south of the island is named after the surrounding white sandy beaches. Although Playa Blanca has grown considerably over the last few years the old fishing village, in the centre, retains its charm and has escaped much of the commercialism that has blighted larger resorts. There is a good selection of cafés, bars and restaurants along the promenade but the main attractions are the nearby beaches; some of the best beaches in the Canary Islands are just four miles (six km) away at Papagayo. The resort is mainly geared for families and couples - those wanting a more lively nightlife will need to make the 18-mile (29km) journey to Puerto del Carmen.
