About

Playa Parrado is located on the North Atlantic Ocean (part of Atlantic ocean) and it is in the 129th place out of 277 beaches in the Las Palmas region 184.8 km away from its center, the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. It is one of the beaches of Playa Quemada settlement, just 3.4 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place, surrounded by the cliffs.

It is a spacious coastline with crystal blue water and gray sand & pebble cover, so it is recommended to wear special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers, hikers etc. It is almost deserted place even during the high season.

Playa Parrado coast is free for all. It has no amenities, only nature. .

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities.

To get to the beach, you need to walk along a mountain trail more than 1km long.

5 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Playa La Casa, which has a rating of 6.8.

Playa Parrado (Las Palmas) is located outside the Playa Quemada 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, 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.
