Playa Blanca (Spanish for ‘White Beach’) is the southernmost town of the Spanish island of Lanzarote. It is part of the municipality of Yaiza. The coastline around Playa Blanca is essentially one large 9 kilometre wide bay which is then broken up into three smaller, but still large, bays. From East to west these are Playa Dorada, Playa Blanca and Playa Flamingo. This basic geography means that the beaches in and around Playa Blanca are sheltered and ideal for swimming and sunbathing.
