In the south of Lanzarote is one of the most popular beaches of the island: Papagayo, a cove of white sand, small dimensions and enormous beauty. In the shape of a bay or shell (as some residents prefer to call it), Papagayo seduces with its transparent emerald waters that remain still all day long as if it were a swimming pool. It is ideal for beginners to snorkel and enjoy the richness of its seabed or let the children splash around without any worries. © iStock/Balate Dorin
