Little Beach

Fantastic experience: Amazing place to be for sunrise each morning! Beautiful free little beach.

Positive experience: Very crowded - but worth it to see the marine fauna, bring masks.

Fantastic experience: It's my favorite beach in Lanzarote, it has a special charm. It's a very small beach, with calm waters and lots of fish. It has showers, restrooms, and a kiosk to buy something to snack on.

Fantastic experience: Very good place

Fantastic experience: Lovely beach for snorkeling. Not very big but that's what makes it enjoyable. There is a toilet building available.

Positive experience: The beach is small, overcrowded, with many divers at this spot. There is a restaurant and a parking lot nearby. This beach is monitored.

Positive experience: Good cove for snorkeling, the downside is that it's a bit small for the number of people visiting it, and little by little it is degrading.

Fantastic experience: Very beautiful cove with crystal clear water. Good for diving.

Fantastic experience: Fine sand beach (and very hot, so you need to wear flip flops until you reach the shore). Being small, there is usually little space, although fortunately there are other little beaches nearby.

Positive experience: We were looking to shelter from the wind... But it wasn't the place. The cove is great. With a beach bar and several diving schools. Equipment rental for snorkeling and easy access. Both to the beach and to the sea.

Fantastic experience: Perfect!

Fantastic experience: After a week in Lanzarote, we can say that it is the beach we liked the most for snorkeling, the one where you can see the most fish by far and from the shore! It has been great.

Positive experience: Nice beach, quite recommendable since when the tide is low, there is a jump of just under 5 meters next to it and when it is high, less than 2m, although I do not recommend going when it is high as there are kids jumping without thinking about others and intimidating people.

Fantastic experience: Dreamlike sandy beach, colorful fish, great clear water, a must for every traveler :)

Fantastic experience: Small but family-friendly, now the water is cold.

Positive experience: Beach where you can see many fish. Great for scuba diving. Beautiful crystal clear water.

Fantastic experience: Very nice beach cove that is very popular with divers.

Fantastic experience: Great site for snorkeling!! Many fish at the edge of the beach (just 10m from the beach). We wore a shorty and fins. In July, the shorty is not essential. However, parking is a hassle!! This beach is surrounded by rocks, perfect for encountering many fish. A very good spot!!

Fantastic experience: Superb cove away from tourist beaches. With a snorkel mask, you can see a plethora of fish. A magnificent place that must be tested absolutely. Rental of masks and snorkels is available. As a bonus, a small ice cream shop to please everyone.

Fantastic experience: A nice family place.

Fantastic experience: Small beach with crystal clear but cold waters. You can see fish at a short distance. You only need some snorkel goggles and a little tube.

Positive experience: Reasonable little beach in Puerto del Carmen

Positive experience: Small beach, but charming!!

Fantastic experience: It was our second favourite snorkel site in Lanzarote. Saw around fifteen species of fish including ornate wrasse and parrotfish. Incredibly clear water and close to bars, shops and restaurants. Loved it! Park in the old town car park which is a reasonable six euros for the whole day (the beach car park will be full after 9 AM)

Fantastic experience: Very good place to swim and snorkel as it is sheltered.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant place for an easy shore dive or snorkeling or just a swim.

Positive experience: I call this the old town beach. It is a small sheltered cove with amenities and a diving school. It can get near full in the summer due to being sheltered from most wind directions.

Fantastic experience: beautiful beach very relaxed and not very crowded

Negative experience: As for the beach, it's a beautiful spot for snorkeling. What the hotels and the council are doing is unacceptable. Right now, they have a hotel under construction with a pool right by the beach, zero water in Lanzarote!!!! And you walk along the promenade and bam, a hotel blocking the way right in the middle of the beach!!!! For those who want it!!!!

Fantastic experience: Small beach, big waves, super fun

Positive experience: A very beautiful beach for snorkeling, unfortunately very crowded.

Fantastic experience: Lovely small sheltered cove. Great for families

Fantastic experience: The sunset from here is spectacular!

Fantastic experience: Very good little beach. In January you can still find a place to lay down. Swimming here is super cool coz surely the diving schools use to feed the fish which are very friendly with you. 6 species all together

Fantastic experience: Very beautiful, small beach, but it is sheltered from the wind, so we really liked it, perfect time when there are fewer people and crystal clear water, from early morning. I recommend visiting, especially if you love diving.

Fantastic experience: It's very good, we went for diving and we were able to see an octopus, there are a lot of fish in general.

Fantastic experience: Nice sandy small beach, protected by rocks going out to sea on both sides, interesting to swim around the rocks also. Pretty sure there are toilets there also a small cafe on the jetty. Lots of divers setting off here, there is a dive hut here with all the gear and air tanks and a lifeguard.

Fantastic experience: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Playa Chica is nice. It offers the possibility to practice sports like jet skiing, parachuting with a speedboat, etc.

Negative experience: It's a pity it was polluted. If we had known, we wouldn't have gone there.

Positive experience: Sheltered from the wind, fine sand, close to tourist attractions.

Fantastic experience: Excellent little beach, ideal with children to discover snorkeling! Explore the rocks on the left and right ☺️ Showers and restrooms available are practical extras for families!

Fantastic experience: A cute little cove where the waves are not big. Adequate services and a nice restaurant behind the wall. It is worth walking from further away if Playa Grande does not appeal to you.

Fantastic experience: The most beautiful beach in Lanzarote ❤️

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach with showers, services, and convenient parking!

Fantastic experience: If you want to enjoy some good diving, I highly recommend coming to the dives at this beach, what a hidden paradise we have beneath the surface. The beach in general is also very cool and the important thing is that there are showers and bathrooms with toilet paper!

Fantastic experience: Really nice little beach, has a kiosk for snacks and drinks; it closed about an hour before sunset. Everything I wanted a beach to be.

Fantastic experience: Great for snorkelling! It was full of fish.

Fantastic experience: I like this beach, the best place for snorkeling, amazing underwater world. Highly recommended

Positive experience: Very small sandy beach, quite nice even if it can quickly get too crowded on the sand as well as in the water since there are several diving schools that hold classes there.

Positive experience: Beautiful bathing beach in Puerto del Carmen, Lanzarote. Also nice for snorkeling, rocks, fish...

Positive experience: A beautiful beach for snorkeling and watching the sunset. Unfortunately, there is often a lot of debris washed ashore in the cove.

Positive experience: Practically a small cove protected by 2 large rocky inlets. One small downside is that it is full of divers coming in and out constantly.

Fantastic experience: One of the best beaches in Lanzarote, but as its name indicates, it is small.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful. Ideal for snorkeling.

Fantastic experience: Nice place to chill and watch or sunbath on the small but nice beach. Toilets right near by and showers also. Restaurant next to the jet ski hire if you want to grab a snack and drink.

Fantastic experience: This beach is listed as one of the best beaches in Lanzarote for snorkeling, and I was not disappointed when we visited. I have never been surrounded by so many fish in the sea before, it was amazing! Definitely one to visit if you want to experience all the fish!

Fantastic experience: Playa Chica is unique. As its name suggests, it is small and crowded with people. Ideal for snorkeling, while always remembering to respect the environment. If you don't like being surrounded by a lot of people, you can go to Playa Grande, which is next door, just a few minutes' walk away.

Positive experience: Small beach in Lanzarote! Best option for Diving trainings. ————————— + safari diving + bar on the beach + 2 min from parking

Fantastic experience: Quiet beach with easy access and crystal clear water.

Fantastic experience: Super beautiful little beach. Not too crowded.

Fantastic experience: It's best to go to Chica Beach starting at 4 PM until around 8 PM. Enjoy the sunset and then go to the old town for dinner. To the right of Chica Beach, towards the harbor, you can snorkel fantastically. Right by the rocks at Chica Beach. But please don't go too far away from the rocks, as motorboats also come in and out.

Fantastic experience: An incredible aquarium! Really magnificent!

Fantastic experience: Small cove very nice. It is bordered on both sides by volcanic rock. Very interesting snorkeling to do around the rocks, you will see many fish. One tip, don't forget your mask! An uncommon fact as well... The presence of a diving club on the beach, so in addition to the fish, you will see scuba divers.

Fantastic experience: Very beautiful and true to its name

Fantastic experience: Incredible beach for snorkeling

Fantastic experience: The beach is amazing! Bring snorkeling goggles. Full of fish... scad, wrasses, mullet, bream, and there's a kiosk to grab a beer, coffee... etc.

Positive experience: Fine sand beach and excellent water

Fantastic experience: This beach! Fantastic for snorkelling and swimming. I saw 1000s of fish with my 6 year old daughter. An experience I will never forget.

Fantastic experience: One of my favorite beaches on the island. It's a small, beautiful cove with a wonderful setting. There is a small beach bar to buy cold drinks, ice creams... And there is also a restaurant a few meters away where the food is great. In addition, various activities such as diving can be booked. It is definitely worth it.

Fantastic experience: A graphic representation of the saying 'don't judge a book by its cover.' It seems like it's not going to be a good beach because of the number of people, but it ends up being one of the best in Lanzarote. Crystal clear waters with a great number of fish, perfect beach for snorkeling.

Fantastic experience: You can rent a snorkel for €5 and enjoy watching the fish in a setting of crystal clear water and volcanic rocks where fish abound. It is difficult to find parking, but other than that, perfect!

Fantastic experience: Being one of the beaches of the town of Puerto del Carmen, it is very close to the harbor. The clear water and the stunning scenery (a cove enclosed by rocks) make Playa Chica one of the most beautiful beaches in Lanzarote. A destination for snorkeling and diving lovers, the cove is full of biodiversity.

Positive experience: Nice little beach, showers and toilets on the beach

Fantastic experience: Lovely little beach but by eck the sea is really really cold.

Positive experience: Nice cosy little beach no sunbeds only what you bring

Fantastic experience: Very busy with loads of water activities and crystal clear water. Many bars and restaurants near by

Fantastic experience: Lovely sandy beach with a shower available at entrance to wash off the sand after being on the beach, definitely recommend taking a snorkel and having a swim as the fish are amazing and you will be able to see them very easily

Fantastic experience: Newly hipster exclusive beach place that has been missed in Mandelieu for decades. An extraordinary opportunity to enjoy the Cote D’azur at its finest for less than I used to at classical places in Cannes. The food is really good and worth the price (location included). Best of all: the DJ plays authentic vibes and reads the room well. Perfect music that goes upbeat through the afternoon. We will come back!!

Fantastic experience: Very beautiful beach Not as busy at some times. Very easy to get to as it's only 10 minutes walk from the bus stop. Great to snorcheling. Definitely recommend to take a water shoes with you. Lots of shop's and restaurants close by as well:-)

Fantastic experience: Great chilled beach near the old town, great for snorkeling.

Positive experience: The beach is nice but busy unless you early here by about 8.30 to 10.00 you may have 100 divers here as there is a lot to see below . If you want see all the diving look on my Facebook I am on a cow

Fantastic experience: Great place for snorkelling! My 7 year old and I had an amazing time here. Calm, clear, shallow water which felt safe. Lots of fish to see in the shallow water. Nice beach and amenities. Well worth a visit.
