Playa de La Cera

Playa de La Cera, often referred to as Cerita, is a picturesque beach situated in the municipality of Yaiza, on the island of Lanzarote, Spain. The beach is nestled within a national park, enhancing its natural allure with the surrounding environment. The beach is categorized as a nudist beach and is known for its tranquility and natural beauty.

In terms of its physical characteristics, Playa de La Cera is an isolated beach with a width of 30 meters and a length of 157 meters. It is adorned with soft, warm white sand and crystal clear waters, offering a myriad of blues and greens. The water is typically warm with small waves, making it an ideal spot for activities like swimming and snorkeling. Visitors to the beach have often reported encountering a variety of interesting fish species during their snorkeling adventures.

Despite being isolated, the beach can get crowded during the high season. However, during quieter times of the year, it is possible to find a secluded spot behind a stone cliff, providing a sense of having a small beach all to oneself.

Access to Playa de La Cera is possible in several ways, including on foot, by car, or by boat. The nearest road to the beach is LZ-2, and it can be reached via a bumpy dirt track. There is a small fee required to enter the national park where the beach is located. It's worth noting, however, that the beach is not accessible for individuals with disabilities.

In terms of facilities and amenities, Playa de La Cera is somewhat limited. There is a small café situated on a hill overlooking the beach, and a few restaurants in the nearby area. These eateries can get busy, and it is unclear whether the café has toilet facilities. As such, visitors are advised to bring their own water and snacks.

For parking, there is an unguarded lot available with a capacity of 50 to 100 spaces. In the case of medical emergencies, the nearest hospital is the Hospital Doctor José Molina Orosa, located in Arrecife.
