Lanzarote Resorts - Playa Blanca

Playa Blanca (White Beach) is a very up and coming resort in Lanzarote. Once a little fishing village at the South-western coast of the island, Playa Blanca has been developing over the past few years (and still is) into a large tourist resort.

Within Playa Blanca you will find the most modern Hotels on the Island, this is mainly due to all the new developments on this resort. Like the other resorts in Lanzarote, you will of course find plenty of shops, bars and restaurants for you to choose from.

The main attractions in Playa Blanca the nearby beaches. Some of the best beaches in the Canary Islands are just four miles (six km) away at Papagayo Beach. The resort is mainly geared for families and couples looking for a relaxing time either on one of the beaches or wandering around the promenade looking to do some shopping.

A night out in Playa Blanca will of course not be as busy as the likes of Puerto Del Carmen but there is plenty of entertainment for you to choose from. If you are looking for a more lively night out you will have to travel over to Puerto Del Carmen.

From Playa Blanca you are also around 15 minutes ride from Fuerteventura which is the closest Islands to Lanzarote. This allows you to travel over and explore some of the best beaches in the world.

One of the newest areas in Playa Blanca is Marina Rubicon. This marina is now complete and is becoming the most popular harbour in Lanzarote. There are already many shops and restaurants around the harbour and is now home to many different excursions.

Playa Blanca is home to most of the first class hotels and apartments in Lanzarote, with a very good selection of 4 and 5 star hotels. If you are interested in staying in Playa Blanca then we suggest visiting our Playa Blanca Hotels and Apartments online booking section.

If you are interested in more information on Playa Blanca, then you can visit our sister site Playa Blanca Reviews which has information, reviews and ratings on Playa Blanca Hotels, Playa Blanca Bars, Playa Blanca Apartments and much more.

Flamingo Beach is still a building site and does not look nearly complete. However 20 minutes further down the coastal path is Playa Dorada Beach which is fabulous, white sand and a gently sloping beach.. The trip to Papagayo is well worth the time, but take provisions as there is nothing there and it is a long walk over the mountains to get there! Be prepared to be sandblasted too as it can be quite windy. As for food everywhere we ate in the area was good, but by far an away the best was La Cuadra a Tex Mex on the main road behind Playa Blanca Harbour, excellent choice and perfectly cooked.

Playa Blanca Beach is still closed due to re-construction of the break-water, see reviews on Trip Advisor for updates. By all accounts heavy machinery on the beach to complete the repair works has required the entire beach to be fenced off, there are buses to other nearby beaches.
