Located on the south central coast of the Lanzarote

, Puerto del Carmen is considered the islands major holiday resort. It used to be a small tiny fishing village, known as Tiosa, but now it is a great area for the family, young couples and occasionally groups of older teenagers and those in their early 20s.

This is the busiest resort on the island, which has grown over the past twenty years stretching along 7 km of the islands south coast. The Avenida de las Playas is a pleasant walkway that has two contrasting sides, on one side is golden sandy beaches with palm trees and bright subtropical plants that has many restaurants, bars and cafs, shops and other tourist attractions, whilst on the other side is apartments, hotels and villas that cover just over a kilometre inland from the coast - so you're bound to find the best Lanzarote villas here. This is a town where you won't see high rise buildings that plague other top destinations due to the strict planning restrictions. It is also said that this is one of the few areas where Csar Manrique didn't have a huge influence on the buildings like he has done in other areas.

The old part of the town is quiet and peaceful, and is where the harbour and docks are situated, it is also the part of the town where you can find some of the best seafood restaurants. There are still working fishing boats there as well as different kinds of crafts that offer leisure trips and a submarine to discover the underwater world, there are also boats for sports fish and diving excursions.

This is a place where most people are satisfied, as when the Council (Ayuntamiento) of Tias conducted a survey among the visitors they found that the percentage of satisfied visitors has increased over the years and is now at 85-90%. The town has gets over one million visitors per year and as a result almost all of the town's economy revolves around tourism. The tourists come from all over Europe, mainly from Ireland, the UK and Germany also from Scandinavia and Spain.

The surrounding waters are considered the most tranquil in the Canary Islands, so they are excellent for swimming and other water sports. Also the beaches are of gold standard as they fly the blue flag awarded by the EEC for cleanliness and the lack of contamination. The beaches along the Avenida de las Playas are considered the most beautiful on the island to go to, these are: the Playa Grande - which is often confused with the Playa Blanca and Playa de los Pocillos - while Playa de Matagorda this one is the less frequently visited.

If you want to visit a resort that is the most popular but isn't as noisy and busy as you think it is then Puerto del Carmen is the perfect place. It is a town that caters something for everyone and is definitely a perfect getaway destination.
