South of the picturesque pleasure harbour of Puerto Calero lies the secluded Playa Quemada, a string of small, idyllic coves with natural beaches featuring volcanic sand, pebbles and crystal-clear, calm waters. At weekends, this beach is a favourite with residents and families who take advantage of the tranquil ocean here; a great place for a swim.

This beach is not as popular as many others in the south of Lanzarote and so has no facilities like sunbeds or sunshades. Spain-Lanzarote suggests you take along a picnic, plenty of water, sun protection and an umbrella.

Playa Quemada can be reached by car on a dirt track or by boat from Puerto Calero.
