Mojón Blanco, also known as Playa Caleta del Mojón, is a secluded beach located in the municipality of Haría, on the island of Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, Spain. The beach is situated on the northern side of the island and is known for the stark contrast of its white sand against the surrounding black rocks, creating a unique and picturesque setting.
The beach is 200 meters long and 40 meters wide, providing ample space for visitors. Despite its size, Mojón Blanco is typically not crowded, even during peak season, and offers a serene, peaceful environment for sunbathing and enjoying the waves. It is important to note that Mojón Blanco is a nudist beach, and visitors can expect moderate waves and wind conditions.
Access to Mojón Blanco can be challenging. The nearest road, LZ-1, is not in close proximity to the beach and reaching the shore involves navigating a small, rocky trail. Additionally, entry into the water may be limited during low tide. Due to its remote location, the beach is not suitable for disabled individuals.
