Caleta de Famara, White sand beach in Lanzarote, Spain.

The 190-meter-long Caleta de Famara beach stretches along Lanzarote's northern coast, bordered by towering cliffs that rise directly from the Atlantic Ocean.

The fishing port of Caleta de Famara served as the economic center for local fishermen before the area's transformation into a modern water sports destination.

The sandy streets and small harbor preserve the authentic character of the original fishing village, maintaining its distinct identity separate from tourist developments.

Strong ocean currents make this location suitable for surfing and kitesurfing, while swimming requires caution and experienced water sports enthusiasts.

The beach undergoes seasonal transformations, revealing sandy shores during summer months and exposing rocky formations throughout the winter period.
