Playa de los Pocillos, White sand beach in Puerto del Carmen, Spain

Playa de los Pocillos is a wide beach with light sand stretching over a kilometer along the coastline. The shore slopes gently into the water with natural shallow pools that form at high tide.

The beach emerged as part of the transformation from a small fishing village into a major tourist center on Lanzarote. This growth brought infrastructure and development to a previously quiet coastal area.

The beach serves as a social gathering place where locals and visitors spend their days by the water. It forms the recreational core of the area, drawing people who want to enjoy the coast together.

The beach has changing facilities, showers, and restrooms plus sun beds available for rent along the shore. A wide range of restaurants and cafes nearby make it easy to spend the full day here.

At high tide, shallow pools form naturally in the sand like small tidal basins where children can safely splash around. This feature makes it a favorite spot for families with young kids.
