Discover 11 Stunning Beaches in Yaiza, Lanzarote
Introduction
Yaiza, one of Lanzarote's seven municipalities, offers some of Spain's finest beaches, particularly at Punta de Papagayo near Playa Blanca. In this guide, we explore the beautiful beaches of Yaiza.
The Transformation of Playa Blanca
Playa Blanca, once a quaint fishing village, is now undergoing a significant transformation. It stretches from Pechiguera Point in the west to Coloradas Beach in the east, marking the start of the Papagayo coves?"a must-see on our journey.
Papagayo Beaches
Punta de Papagayo, located at the island’s southernmost tip, is a collection of small, stunning beaches: Playa Mujeres, Playa del Pozo, Playa de Papagayo, Playa de La Cera, Puerto Muelas, and Caleta del Congrio. These beaches boast golden sands, ranging from 100 to 400 meters in length, bordered by impressive cliffs.
Note: The area is undeveloped, so come prepared with food and drinks, as there are no facilities available. Access is via a dirt track from the LZ-2 Roundabout. While a four-wheel-drive vehicle is recommended, many visitors use regular cars. There's a small toll of 2 euros, and parking is available near a lone cafeteria. Buggies are not suitable for the sand banks.
The beaches offer breathtaking volcanic landscapes, crystal-clear waters, and pristine sands, making them arguably the finest in Europe. Be aware that nude bathing is common beyond the main cove.
