Puerto del Carmen: Where Lanzarote comes alive

Puerto del Carmen is more than just a beach resort — it’s a lively destination where tradition, culture, and adventure come together under the Lanzarote sun. Whether you’re looking for relaxation, exploration, or nightlife, you’ll find it all here.

Getting Here
Just 10 km from Lanzarote International Airport, Puerto del Carmen is easy to reach. Taxis, public buses, and car hire options make arriving — and getting around — simple and stress-free.

Beaches & Ocean Adventures

  • Playa Grande – The main golden-sand beach, perfect for swimming and sunbathing.

  • Playa Chica – A sheltered cove, loved by divers and snorkellers for its colourful marine life.


Explore the Old Town & Harbour

Wander the charming streets of the Old Town, where tradition meets modern fun. Sample fresh seafood in harbourside tapas bars, shop for local crafts, or soak up sunset views by the water. Once a sleepy fishing village, Puerto del Carmen has grown into a bustling holiday hub, yet the harbour still retains its whitewashed cottages, bobbing boats, and authentic island spirit.



Cuisine & Nightlife

From traditional Canarian flavours to international favourites, Puerto del Carmen’s restaurants bring the world to your table. Don’t miss:

  • Papas arrugadas (wrinkled potatoes) with spicy mojo

  • Fresh grilled seafood, especially octopus and parrotfish

After dark, Avenida de las Playas buzzes with energy. Whether you’re in the mood for lively dancing or a quiet seaside drink, you’ll find bars, pubs, and nightclubs to suit every taste.


Shopping & Markets

Browse the Biosfera Plaza or the SOCO Commercial Centre for global brands, or wander the many boutiques along the main beach road for clothes, gifts, and souvenirs.


Festivals & Events

Puerto del Carmen hosts vibrant celebrations throughout the year:

  • Three Kings Parade – 5 January

  • Carnival (February/March) – Parades, costumes, music, and street parties

  • St Patrick’s Day – 17 March, ending with a lively parade from Avenida to the Old Town Harbour

  • Ironman Lanzarote (May) – One of the world’s toughest triathlons: a 3.8 km swim, 180 km cycle, and a marathon along the seafront. Cheer on the athletes and soak up the electric atmosphere!

  • Fiesta de Nuestra Señora del Carmen (July/August) – Harbour festivities honouring the patron saint

  • Christmas Lights & Market – Sparkling celebrations throughout December
