Hot Summer Holidays In Puerto del Carmen

Lanzarote’s oldest holiday resort, Puerto del Carmen, was chosen for its exceptional weather and location. It is tucked into the eastern coastline, where a range of volcanoes at its back prevents the wind that comes off the Atlantic from cooling the temperature too much.
These conditions mean that visitors can thoroughly enjoy the golden sandy beaches that run along its seafront, whether they are swimming, snorkeling or sun bathing. In addition, there have been recent improvements to the promenade which has greatly enhanced it for pedestrians.
Over the course of its history, Puerto del Carmen has been transformed from a small village surrounding a harbour to a tourist destination. The majority of visitors to the town will stay in self-catering accommodation, of which there is an extensive selection. Travellers on a tight budget are well catered for as there are plenty of holiday villas in Lanzarote to pick from.
All of the apartment complexes fit a similar blueprint of low rise buildings, with lush tropical planting surrounding them. This style of development helps to give the town its unspoiled and relaxed atmosphere, making it the perfect backdrop for holidays.
Aside from the wide choice of Lanzarote accommodation, Puerto del Carmen is well provided with restaurants, with nearly every national cuisine represented, from Italian to Japanese. A good number of these establishments offer local specialties, with particular emphasis on seafood, especially in the old harbour area.
For those who enjoy late nights whilst on holiday, there is a wide choice of clubs and bars mostly situated in the central area of the town. Unsurprisingly, many of the music venues don’t open their doors until the small hours, as is typical of Spanish nightspots.
