Villa Clotilde’s proximity to Puerto Calero’s waterfront means you can enjoy a car-free holiday. It’s just one kilometre to this smart, purpose-built marina, that now enjoys visits from sailors and sleek-looking yachts from all over the world. You’ll find a wonderful array of international restaurants, cafes and bars lining the marina. Pull up a chair and watch the nautical world go by.
Just a few hundred metres from Villa Clotilde is a small pebbly beach, but if you and the family want to build sandcastles and jump over waves, make the short journey to Playa Grande. The long, golden beach at Puerto del Carmen is only five kilometres away. You can either take public transport along the coast road or hitch a ride on the water taxi across the bay. Beyond the beach, you’ll discover an abundance of restaurants, bars, shops, and water sports. Biosfera Plaza shopping centre is open until late evening, Monday to Saturday, and includes much more than just shops. Head here for eateries, bars, cinemas and even mini-golf!
Rancho Texas Amusement Park will entertain the whole family all day long. It’s a double-whammy of exotic animal encounters, shows and splashy fun at the wild west themed water park.
If you wish to explore the island further, you’ll need to hire a car. Further north, and inland, lies the lovely little town of Teguise. In the fifteenth century, this was the original capital of Lanzarote and is also littered with references and homages to Lanzarote’s favourite son and artistic genius, Cesar Manrique.

The Region
Puerto Calero is situated on the outskirts of Puerto del Carmen, positioned in a naturally protected enclave on Lanzarote's sheltered south coast, and has earned a reputation as one of the world's top sailing destinations while retaining a distinctive village-type atmosphere.
Puerto Calero is much more than a marina; there is a wide selection of cafés, bars and restaurants along the waterfront, and it's a beautiful place to sit and watch the comings and goings, with the sound of the clink of ropes on the masts, and the school of fish that swim around the marina – eager for any leftover bread from your meal.
