Puerto del Carmen

Puerto del Carmen Holidays - Lanzarote's premier resort, Puerto del Carmen blossomed around a tiny fishing port which flourishes today with excellent local restaurants all located around the harbour. Lovely little bars and cafes line the pedestrianised streets and the aromas of charcoal and sizzling fish waft in the air - deliciously typical of Puerto del Carmen holidays in the Canary Islands. Lanzarote is affordable as well as being beautiful all year round however if you’re looking to get a good deal the months of March, September, and October are also great months to visit. 

Away from the harbour, a busy commercial heart beats and hordes of tourist shops, souvenir stalls and duty-free outlets vie for the almighty euro. The attractive seafront promenade stretches all the way along to Matagorda and neighbouring Playa de los Pocillos and a stroll is recommended to watch the world go by and decide on the forthcoming pleasures of the evening. Puerto del Carmen's beach is a wonderful 4 km expanse of silky sand with clear water and gently shelving shoreline. There are many water sports outlets and windsurfing is particularly popular. Timanfaya National Park is a natural phenomenon and an amazing spectacle of the force of Mother Nature and a must visit! Indeed, Lanzarote's Puerto del Carmen is a hugely diverse resort which has mass appeal.

From the charming port to the excellent beach and huge selection of shops, music bars, Irish pubs, seafood restaurants and traditional bodegas, Puerto del Carmen is a true Canarian delight!  With direct flights to Arrecife from Ireland, it is easy to explore the other lovely Lanzarote resorts of Costa Teguise, Playa Blanca, Puerto Calero, Playa de los Pocillos and Matagorda and we have a wide selection of hotels in the region. Puerto del Carmen is one of the best places to stay for a holiday in Lanzarote. With so much to see and do, great weather, and fabulous scenery, what more could you want!
