Los Pocillos is a huge beach at the quiet end of Puerto del Carmen. It is however an excellent point to explore the island and all the attractions from North to South. A good bus service links the major points and the sea front walk extends all the way through Arrecife to Costa Teguise beyond. Our welcome book is a guide to all these attractions and the necessary medical and emergency services should you need them. However Lanzarote has a low crime rate as one of its benefits. The middle of the island around Peuto del Carmen has the Canary character which attracts visitors time and again. It was tastefully developed under the control of the then Chief Architect, Cesar Manrique. It has not been swamped by holiday complexes as have other towns. Arrecife, the capital, is only 10kms away, or 1.40E by bus every 20 minutes. There you have big stores and a thriving port as well as some interesting historical features.
