Famara, Golden sand and shingle beach in Teguise, Spain.

Famara is a beach on the northern coast of Lanzarote featuring both sandy sections and pebbled areas that extend for about 2800 meters. The shoreline varies in width and offers different zones suited to swimming, surfing, and relaxation.

The beach lies within Teguise, Lanzarote's oldest town, which has a long history of connection to the sea. Over centuries, this coastal area served as an important location for fishing and maritime activities.

The beach attracts surfers and water sports enthusiasts from around the world, creating a laid-back community dedicated to ocean activities. This connection to surfing shapes how the place feels and who gathers here regularly.

Parking areas and walking paths lead to different sections of the beach, with surf schools and equipment rental services nearby. It is helpful to check conditions before your visit, as wind and waves can vary significantly throughout the year.

The beach is divided into distinct zones: a central area for swimming, a northern section with strong waves for surfing, and a southern part reserved for naturists. This arrangement allows different groups to use the beach simultaneously without interfering with each other.
