Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain

Playa Mujeres

Playa Mujeres, colloquially referred to as Calera, is a picturesque beach nestled in the municipality of Yaiza, on the island of Lanzarote, in the Canary Islands, Spain. Bordered by rocky cliffs, the beach is known for its white sandy shores and clear blue waters, which provide a serene and pristine environment for visitors.

The beach is accessible in multiple ways. For those who prefer public transportation, the beach is a ten-minute walk from the Los Colorades bus stop. For those who prefer to drive, it is reachable via the LZ-2 road, followed by a three-mile drive on an unsealed road. There is also an option for the more adventurous to walk over the hills to reach the beach. However, it's worth noting that the beach is not accessible for disabled individuals.

Playa Mujeres tends to attract a significant number of visitors during peak seasons, though it is not typically crowded, even on weekends. This makes it an ideal spot for families, couples, and solo travelers seeking a quiet and scenic getaway. A unique feature of this beach is a designated nudist area located at the southern end, catering to those who prefer a clothing-optional beach experience.

Despite its popularity, Playa Mujeres lacks amenities including refreshments and facilities. Visitors are therefore advised to bring everything they need for their visit. The beach does, however, provide an unguarded parking area that can accommodate between 50 to 100 cars. There is also a paid parking option available, with payment made at a hut on the dirt road leading to the beach.
