Hotels in Puerto Calero

Puerto Calero is a small, smart marina village on the south coast, built around its yacht harbour and a waterside promenade with shops and restaurants. It is quieter and more polished than its big neighbour, Puerto del Carmen, which is a short boat hop away. It suits couples and anyone who wants a calm base with the beaches and bars of a bigger resort close at hand.

Before you go to Puerto Calero

Getting there

Puerto Calero is about 18 minutes' drive from César Manrique-Lanzarote airport (ACE), one of the quickest transfers on the island. Arrecife Bus line 61 runs from the airport through Puerto del Carmen to Puerto Calero, line 24 links the marina with Arrecife and line 25 with Costa Teguise. Taxis wait at the official ranks on the ground floor of both airport terminals.

Beaches

Puerto Calero is a marina rather than a beach resort, so the nearest long sandy beaches are in Puerto del Carmen just to the east. Playa Grande, Los Pocillos and Matagorda there have golden sand and calm water, and all hold a Blue Flag for 2026. The daily waterbus is the easy way over, or the bus along the coast.

Good to know

Life here revolves around the marina: a waterside promenade with shops, bars and restaurants looking over the yachts in the harbour. A waterbus runs several times a day between Puerto Calero and Puerto del Carmen, so the livelier resort’s beaches, bars and Friday market are close without staying there. Evenings are calm, which suits couples and anyone after a quieter base.
