Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain

Playa de San Juan

Playa de San Juan is a beach known for its natural beauty and tranquility. It is characterized by its rocky coastline, which is often covered in sea grass. The beach is backed by cliffs, providing a stunning backdrop and shelter from the wind. The beach is somewhat isolated, which contributes to its peaceful atmosphere. However, this isolation also means that it can be challenging to reach the water. Despite this, many visitors find the journey worthwhile for the opportunity to experience the beach's unique natural features. One of the beach's distinctive characteristics is the presence of stone circles, which provide additional shelter from the wind. Unfortunately, these circles are sometimes used as ashtrays, detracting from the beach's natural beauty. While the beach is generally considered to be more of a sightseeing spot than a swimming destination due to its often cold and windy conditions, it still attracts visitors seeking a serene and scenic environment.
