Papagayo Beach

Situated in Lanzarote and locally called the bay or shell beach due to its shape the Papagayo beach captivates your mind and soul with its angelic white sand and emerald green still, crystal clear water (like in a swimming pool). It is the most popular beach in Lanzarote.

Papagayo is the most beautiful and famous beach in Lanzarote and one among a collection of 5 that lace its shoreline. The others include Playa Mujeres, Playa de la Cera, Caleta del Congrio and Puerto Muelas. The last two are comparatively less frequented and thus a better option if you are looking for a more concealed getaway. The site is neither stretched, nor too short, the waves aren’t completely restrained, but bubbly with warm beach-like fervor; it strikes a perfect balance in its appeal and features. 

The Papagayo beach is also a place where parents need not worry about their children who’d want to enjoy the beauty of its shallow depths and its apt for snorkeling as well. Another interesting offering nearby is the natural monument of Los Ajaches, just a few minutes along the track. The place is secluded and also has a snug beach bar and offers parking (paid) and camping facilities as well.
