Gentle Roll Through Puerto Del Carmen, Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain

Описание: Our Favourite Place. Puerto Del Carmen. A gentle 3km roll starting at the very bottom of the main strip, finishing up at Plaza de las Naciones (Playa de los Pocillos).

Amazing for my wheelchair, the whole coastal path is actually completely flat for 14km, from the bottom of the strip all the way past Arrecife Airport past Playa Honda and beyond!

The longest established - and probably best known - resort on the island. Puerto del Carmen has everything from beachside arcades to Casinos and some of the most impressive luxury private villas in Lanzarote.

Like many places in Lanzarote, Puerto del Carmen was originally a small fishing village, and the old harbour is still a delightful place to visit, boasting some excellent seafood restaurants.

Although the resort has grown over the last twenty years — it now stretches along the whole 6 kilometres of golden sandy beaches — the town has been saved from the high-rise buildings that blight so many other destinations due to the strict planning restrictions.

If sun and sea are your thing, then the 6 kilometre stretch of golden beaches — washed by the waters of the Atlantic — should be enough to tempt you. All of the beaches fly the Blue Flag — awarded by the EEC — for cleanliness and lack of contamination. The surrounding waters are considered to be some of the most tranquil in the Canary Islands, they are excellent for Swimming and other water sports.
