Beach overall scores
Playa Mujeres (Las Palmas) is located outside the Maciot settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Lanzarote and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Playa Mujeres with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"The beach may appear to be clean, but the water is far from clear and the sand is not as pleasant as it appears. The naturist option may be a plus, but it's not for everyone. Parking spaces are available, but they can be limited and the roads leading to the beach are bumpy and not suitable for all vehicles."
Aidan
"This spot is a great find, just a stone's throw away from Playa Blanca. It's a bit off the beaten track, as the road leading there is a dirt track. It's part of a national park, so you'll need to pay €3 to get in, but it's worth it! clean and beautiful, and the ocean was clear and not too choppy when we visited. Plus, there's a Virgin beach with no amenities nearby."
