Playa Blanca
On the southern shores of Lanzarote is Playa Blanca, once a small fishing village and now a popular resort. Playa Blanca translates into white beach and is so named for the wonderful beaches it possess. The resort is perfect for couples and families and anyone else who is looking for a relaxing holiday in beautiful surroundings.
Playa Blanca has some of the best beaches in Lanzarote and is near to one of the best beaches in the Canary Islands. The main beach of Playa Blanca is a dream of rippling white sands. The sea deepens from a tropical turquoise to sapphire and the rays of the sun cause it to sparkle in the light. If you like beaches, you’ll quickly fall in love with this one! Not far from this lies the famous Papagayo beach which is as close to paradise as a beach can get!
Beaches are the main attraction in Playa Blanca however, there are other things to do as well! Water sports are a popular choice because of the clear, warm waters and boat trips from Playa Blanca to Papagayo or nearby Fuerteventura are popular also. Lanzarote has lots of places to visit and trips are easily arranged!
The Marina Rubicon in Playa Blanca is fast becoming one of the most popular marinas in Lanzarote because of its profusion of shops, restaurants and bars. The Playa Blanca promenade also offers lots of shops, bars and eateries with some of the best fish in the area! For night life Playa Blanca is quite low-key but still gives tourists a lively night. One of the best places to go is the Wax Bar where you can watch sports during the day or the fantastic entertainment acts at night!
You’ll soon find that most of the hotels in Playa Blanca are more modern than the hotels found in wider Lanzarote because the resort is a fairly new one. As far as hotels go, these provide both quality and good value for money. One hotel to check out is the Papagayo Arena Hotel which lies between Playa Blanco and the beaches of Papagayo – the best of both worlds!
