Puerto Calero Lanzarote
The stylish Puerto Calero lies just a short distance from
Lanzarote airport
and the island's main holiday resort of
Puerto Del Carmen. Protected from the NE
winds and strong Atlantic waves, Puerto Calero is an ideal location for this
luxurious marina which accommodates nearly 500 yachts. The residential area of
Puerto Calero contains numerous luxury villas as well as a couple of hotels and
is home to a fine 18 hole golf course.
Although marinas tend to be exclusive by their very nature, Puerto Calero is
very much open to the public and is a popular spot for visitors to the island
who can enjoy a stroll around some of the the multi million euro vessels berthed
there and stop for a drink at one of the numerous bars and cafes overlooking the
marina. There are also a number of stylish boutiques and up market shops if
you're looking to do some shopping. Puerto Calero has attracted some very
stylish restaurants to its marina and is a lovely spot for an evening meal,
there are also some lively bars to head for after dinner which stay open until
the early hours.
By day you'll find plenty to do at Puerto Calero. There are a few operators
offering boat excursions along the coast and some promoting deep sea fishing
trips which are a great experience in the Canary Islands. You can also learn to
dive at one of the PADI accredited diving schools. Whilst maintaining its air of
exclusivity, Puerto Calero has cleverly managed to grow as a 'people's marina'
zone where locals and tourists alike are very welcome making it a place you
really should try to visit if you're staying in this part of
Lanzarote.
