Puerto Del Carmen Holidays – Excellent extensive sandy beaches.
Holidays in Puerto Del Carmen are based in the biggest, liveliest and most popular resort on Lanzarote. Puerto Del Carmen is on the south coast of the island, 3 miles from Arrecife and a short transfer from Lanzarote airport. The town is a well-established Lanzarote favourite, popular with those looking for a Lanzarote resort with plenty of entertainment, good facilities, long sandy beaches and a wonderful all-year-round climate. The undoubted highlights of Puerto Del Carmen are its golden sandy beaches. Puerto Del Carmen beach is a long broad curved stretch of gently shelving golden sand with clean calm water ideal for swimming and windsurfing, making the resort particularly popular with families. Visitors to Puerto Del Carmen can easily sample the quieter atmosphere at Matagordos beach and Playa de Porcillos beach, two resorts that effectively form a continuation of Puerto Del Carmen beach.
