Flanked by golden sands and the tranquil sweep of the Atlantic, Playa Honda sits quietly between the energetic capital of Arrecife and the bustling resort of Puerto del Carmen. It’s a place where Lanzarote’s easygoing rhythm comes to life — a favourite among locals, yet welcoming to visitors who seek a genuine taste of island life.
A Beach for Everyone
Playa Honda’s beach stretches nearly two kilometres, its wide sandy expanse washed by gentle waves and bathed in sunshine. Families picnic here, children play at the water’s edge, and joggers and cyclists cruise the palm-lined promenade. Calm, shallow waters make it perfect for safe swimming, while steady breezes attract windsurfers and paddleboarders.
Authentic Island Charm
Beyond the beach, Playa Honda feels more like a neighbourhood than a resort. Whitewashed houses, colourful gardens, and small plazas create a welcoming, lived-in atmosphere. The seaside promenade (paseo marítimo) connects Arrecife to Puerto del Carmen, offering uninterrupted ocean views and a lively flow of walkers, skaters, and cyclists.
Food & Drink by the Sea
Cafés and restaurants line the waterfront, serving everything from just-caught seafood and traditional Canarian dishes to international flavours and artisan ice cream. At sunset, shaded terraces fill with locals sipping Malvasía wine as the Atlantic glows pink and gold.
A Vibrant Community
Playa Honda is known for its strong community spirit. Markets, music nights, and cultural events pop up throughout the year, giving visitors the chance to mingle with locals and experience traditions firsthand. Supermarkets, bakeries, and independent shops also make it easy to self-cater and enjoy everyday life on the island.
Easy Connections
Convenience is one of Playa Honda’s hallmarks. Just a five-minute drive from Arrecife Airport, it’s perfectly located for exploring Lanzarote. Public transport is reliable, and the extensive cycle path network makes getting around effortless.
Why Choose Playa Honda?
Playa Honda is a place to relax into the rhythm of Lanzarote at your own pace. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee as fishing boats bob offshore, strolling the promenade in the sea breeze, or joining locals for a fiesta in the square, Playa Honda captures the true, welcoming spirit of the island.
