The most popular resort for families on the island is Playa Blanca. The resort started out as a small fishing village and quickly grew to become a massive tourist hotspot. It shirks the party reputation of other Lanzarote hot spots to appeal to families and couples, and it does this job brilliantly. Although it’s a quieter resort it has everything you need to enjoy a family holiday including access to what are hands down the best beaches on the island.

There’s also been a large amount of development in the area and the resort has an entirely new marina to show for it, full of brand new modern and classy restaurants and bars and home to Lanzarote’s most exciting holiday entertainment, making holidays in Lanzarote even better even if you’ve already been to Playa Blanca before!

The weather for Holidays in Lanzarote is exactly what you would expect from a paradise island – warm and sunny, and Playa Blanca specifically has a refreshing breeze running through it thanks to the open planning of the resort itself. The summer sun does mean that the place can get pretty crowded so if you’re able to go on the fringes of the season you’ll find access to facilities and the beach a little easier to come by. The islands climate remains good for a beach holiday from around May to September, although the weather is temperate all year round if you want to do a bit of exploring instead.
