Tired of crowded beaches and noisy promenades? Discover the quieter, more authentic side of Lanzarote with these 5 hidden beaches – remote, raw, and refreshingly peaceful.
Perfect for sunrise walks, solo swims, or simply doing nothing in paradise.

1. Playa del Paso (near Timanfaya)

A stunning black-sand beach tucked beneath volcanic cliffs. Only accessible by foot from El Golfo – about a 15-minute scenic hike. No facilities, no tourists, just waves and silence.

2. Caletón Blanco (near Órzola)

White sands and natural lava rock pools make this northern beach a family favourite. The shallow, clear water is safe for kids and perfect for a relaxing float.

3. Playa de la Cantería

Hidden behind the village of Órzola, this wild beach offers golden sands and dramatic cliffs. Strong waves make it a secret surf spot for locals. Sunsets here? Unreal.

4. Playa de las Conchas (La Graciosa)

Technically on Lanzarote’s sister island, but just a short ferry ride away. This wide, untouched beach is otherworldly. Bring water and your camera — you’ll want both.

5. Playa del Pozo

Nestled between the more famous Papagayo and Mujeres beaches, but with fewer people and the same turquoise water. You’ll need to drive a gravel road, but the payoff is a tranquil escape.
