KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Playa Blanca

  • Playa Bianca is the largest town in Lanzarote, the most northern of the Canary Islands. So you’ll want to organise a car hire in Playa Blanca so that you can traverse the entire region around the town, as well as explore its own sites at your leisure, without relying on the island’s central transport system. This will allow you to drive to places like Playas de Papagayo, a section of sheltered beaches in the Los Ajaches Natural Park. You can also explore the blue grottos formed by underground pools here. For something more unusual, take a commercial submarine trip down to about 100 feet, from where you can see local shipwrecks through viewing portholes.
  • You’ll land on this resort island at César Manrique-Lanzarote Airport. The major car hire companies like Hertz, Europcar and Budget are represented here, along with local brands, so you will be able to pick up the Playa Blanca car hire you pre-booked very easily. You’ll arrive at Terminal 1, as Terminal 2 is reserved for domestic flights, and all of the car hire kiosks will be facing you as you exit customs. Then it’s only about a minute walk across the road to the parking lot where you can inspect and collect your vehicle.
  • Driving conditions in the centre of Playa Blanca can get pretty busy due to the high number of tourists you’ll encounter. This includes vehicles and many pedestrian holidaymakers, particularly near the beaches and beachfront pubs and restaurants. The other major aspect to take into account is that this is a cyclist’s paradise; in fact, many UK tourists bring their bicycles along for this specific purpose. So you should take the approach that this is an islands of cyclists, and drive accordingly.
  • There is only really one road in Playa Blanca that carries enough regular car traffic to have any semblance of a rush hour, but calling it that would be like calling a gentle ocean swell a tidal wave. This is also partly due to the cycling culture in the city. So the only road that could cause you any kinds of delay is the main one into the town, the LZ2, where it reaches the roundabouts at Av. Faro Pechiguera and Av. A. Femes. Otherwise you shouldn’t experience any congestion to speak of.
  • Small hire cars in Playa Blanca are around 67% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about hiring a car in Playa Blanca

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Playa Blanca?

    You have free choice of car hire in Playa Blanca given that it’s so easy to get around with the relative lack of traffic, as long as you drive carefully and take the cycling culture into consideration all the time. The roads are good so you can get any kind of car, from a city car to a sports model. You’re probably best off with an SUV, however, as that will allow you to get around easily both in the built-up areas and on the rural roads where you might want to venture off the beaten track.

  • What’s the speed limit in Playa Blanca?

    The speed limit in central Playa Blanca and in the residential areas is kept really low, at 20km/h (about 12mph), precisely because of all the cyclists. In other built-up areas you can drive at 50km/h (around 30mph). On the country roads the speed limit increases to 80km/h (about 50mph) and once you’re on the dual carriageways on the island it goes up to 100km/h (just above 60mph).

  • Where are the best places to park in Playa Blanca?

    There aren’t any significant car parks in many parts of the town, but that shouldn’t concern you too much as all on-street parking is free. The only challenge will be finding a parking spot close to your destination, but nothing is outside of easy walking distance in the town.
