Playa de Papagayo is a coastal attraction located in the Yaiza region in the south of Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain, known for its natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere. It is part of the Los Ajaches Natural Park (Parque Natural de Los Ajaches), where the environment is well-preserved and largely free from major commercial development, maintaining a relatively pristine natural landscape. Playa de Papagayo is popular with visitors for its crescent-shaped bay, fine golden sand, and clear turquoise waters. The bay is surrounded by volcanic rocks and cliffs, forming a natural shelter that keeps the water calm and suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and sunbathing. As it is located in a protected area, visitors are required to pay a small entrance fee, and vehicles must travel along a dirt road to reach it, offering unique views of the intertwined wilderness and coastline along the way.Yaiza · 27.9km from El Cotillo

What travellers say about El Cotillo

Senior in Age, Student at Heart19 November 2021

With so many volcanoes on the island, I felt it was necessary to pay one a visit, and so one day we set off to the Calderon Hondo, one of the island’s best preserved examples with a crater of over 70 metres. I set off pretty early in the morning. The walk was incredibly easy, apart from the uneven stone path and steep sloping steps at the very end, and took me approximately half an hour. Upon reaching the top, I found a vantage point from which I was able to look down into the volcano’s crater as well as view the surrounding area including various other volcanoes and even across the water to Lanzarote.
