Caleton Blanco beach

Discover the enchanting Caleton Blanco, a collection of quaint beaches nestled in the northern reaches of Lanzarote, adjacent to the charming fishing village of Orzola. Here, the dramatic cliffs of solidified lava stand in stark contrast to the dazzlingly white sands. Caleton Blanco, the namesake of this captivating series, emerges as the largest and most beloved beach, beckoning visitors with its serene beauty and tranquil waters.

Beach description

Rocks form natural pools in Caleton Blanco Bay, well-protected from the open ocean. This feature explains the absence of waves in the lagoon. On the beach, there are areas with shallow water, perfect for paddling, but you can also swim in the deeper parts. This spot on the island is considered the best for families with children. It is also chosen by those seeking the opportunity to enjoy the beach in solitude.

Caleton Blanco boasts "wild" beaches, where stretches of the coast offer no additional amenities for relaxation, only untouched nature. The only sign of civilization in this place is the free parking for cars.

While there are no hostels or hotels directly on the beaches, a large selection of accommodation for rent can be found in the nearest major city, Costa Teguise (about 25 km from Caleton Blanco).

When is it better to go

The best time to visit Lanzarote for a beach vacation is largely dependent on personal preferences for weather and crowd levels. However, there are certain periods that offer an optimal balance of pleasant climate and manageable tourist numbers.

  • Mid-Spring to Early Summer (May to June): During these months, Lanzarote experiences warm, but not excessively hot temperatures, making it perfect for beach activities. The island is less crowded before the peak summer rush, allowing for a more relaxed atmosphere.
  • Mid-September to October: This period is ideal for those looking to enjoy the warm sea temperatures accumulated over the summer. The majority of summer tourists have left, resulting in quieter beaches and a peaceful environment.
  • Late Autumn to Early Winter (November to early December): For travelers seeking mild weather and minimal tourist activity, this is a great time. While the temperatures are cooler, they are still comfortable for enjoying the beaches without the bustling crowds.

Ultimately, the best time for a beach vacation in Lanzarote is when the weather suits your preference and you can enjoy the island's beauty with fewer tourists.
