The popular resort of Playa Blanca on Lanzarote’s south coast has three gorgeous beaches that are well liked by all types of holidaymakers who love to soak up the Canarian sunshine.

The largest beach, from which the town takes its name (it is also known as central beach), is especially good for families with children. Proudly flying the European Blue Flag for cleanliness, pristine waters and excellent facilities, it is located close to the harbour where you will also find a good selection of restaurants, cafes and bars.

A lovely promenade runs along the seafront and takes you to Playa Flamingo, which is west of the town. This is another attractive, golden, sandy beach with beautifully calm, warm waters with plenty of shops and facilities nearby. And Playa Dorada to the east, with its clean, white sands is another hotspot for sunbathers and swimmers.

Overlooking this beach is a hotel where you can enjoy 5-star luxury in idyllic surroundings at an unbeatable price. The Princesa Yaiza Suite Hotel Resort comes highly recommended by Ambarella Limited, who only work with the best hotels in the most sought-after locations in the Canary Islands. This place has seven restaurants, great entertainment for all the family, a thalassotherapy centre, fantastic guestrooms, unrivalled hospitality and much more.

All three beaches of Playa Blanca offer different kinds of water sports and good views of the neighbouring island of Fuerteventura... and of course the brilliant year-round climate which makes the Canaries one of the most popular holiday destinations in the world.
