Playa del Salado is a long, sandy-and-rocky beach on La Graciosa, close to Caleta de Sebo and its harbor. A lagoon-like stretch of calm water gives you a sheltered place to swim, while the shore opens onto views of Lanzarote and its volcanic landscape. The tide changes how much beach is exposed and how easily you can reach the sea. There are no facilities, so bring water, shade and anything else you need for your visit.

A lagoon-like area has calmer water for swimming. The changing tide affects both the exposed beach and access to the sea, so check conditions before setting out. Keep close to the beach when crossing shallow water, since some areas can be deeper than they appear.
