Join us for a walk in Playa Blanca, Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain. We start our walk at Playa Dorada and walk along the seafront promenade, past all the busy restaurants and finish our walk at the end of Playa Blanca promenade with views over towards Playa Blanca harbour. From here numerous ferries leave daily for Corralejo in Fuerteventura. The regular ferry service connects Lanzarote with Fuerteventura in less than 35 minutes.
Playa Blanca is the southernmost town of the Spanish island of Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, Spain.
The coastline around Playa Blanca is essentially one large 9 kilometre wide bay which is then broken up into three smaller, but still large, bays. From East to west these are Playa Dorada, Playa Blanca and Playa Flamingo. This basic geography means that the beaches in and around Playa Blanca are sheltered and ideal for swimming and sunbathing.
Ferries operate daily from Playa Blanca Lanzarote to Corralejo in Fuerteventura. There are three ferry lines to choose from in which to make the journey. Firstly there is the Fred Olsen Express ferry, called the 'Bocayna Express' which makes the trip in 20 minutes. The second ferry is the Naviera Armas, called the 'Volcan de Tindaya', which makes 7 daily crossings each way, each one being of 35 minutes duration. The third is the 'Princesa Ico Glass Bottomed Boat'.
Playa Dorada is literally translated as The Golden Beach, and is to the east of Playa Blanca town centre. The sea around Playa Dorada is generally very calm because it is encased within a manmade cove. It is a 10-minute walk from the centre of Playa Blanca and is well served by shops and cafes at Centro Comercial Papagayo behind it. This is the most popular beach in Playa Blanca for enjoying water based activities. Banana boats, pedalos and parascending are available here.
Playa Blanca is overlooked by the dormant volcano Montana Roja. The walk up to and around the rim of the mountain is not too difficult and there are views over Playa Blanca, to the North of the island and across to Fuerteventura.
The sun shines 300 days per year in Playa Blanca. It is located east of the Canary Islands, closest to Africa, with little rainfall and an average annual temperature of around 21°C.
Thanks for watching, we hope you enjoy this Playa Blanca Lanzarote Walk!
