Papagayo Catamaran Cruise from Puerto del Carmen

Book this experience when you want Papagayo as a boat experience rather than a self-managed beach day. The package combines hotel-area transfers, a four-hour catamaran cruise, lunch, drinks and kayaks, so you do not need to arrange transport to the Los Ajaches beaches or carry food and equipment for a full beach outing. It is particularly practical for couples, families with older children and groups who prefer a structured excursion with plenty of time on the water. The open-bar and lunch format also makes the total cost easier to compare with separate transport, food and activity expenses.

Best for couples, families with older children and groups who want a relaxed half-day-style boat excursion with transfers, food and drinks included. It also suits visitors staying outside Playa Blanca who want to experience the Papagayo coast without renting a car or organising an independent beach day.

Choose another option if your main goal is to land at Papagayo and spend several independent hours on the beach, walk between the Los Ajaches coves, or control your own arrival and departure time. The activity is not wheelchair accessible. Snorkeling equipment is not included, so dedicated snorkelers should bring their own set or check any available add-on before booking.

Pickup is arranged from the designated point closest to your hotel, followed by coach transport to Puerto del Carmen. The catamaran departs from the harbour and sails south along Lanzarote's coast towards Papagayo, with coastal views around Puerto Calero and the volcanic south of the island. On board, guests receive a welcome mojito and a small snack. The boat then anchors near Punta de Papagayo for the main leisure stop. You can swim, use the included kayaks or remain on board and relax. Lunch is prepared and served during the excursion; the current package lists paella and fresh fruit, with pasta also referenced in the experience description. Beer, sangria, water and soft drinks are available from the open bar. After the anchoring period, the catamaran returns to Puerto del Carmen and the coach takes guests back to the designated pickup area. The advertised cruise duration is approximately four hours.

Bring swimwear, a towel, sun protection, a hat and comfortable clothing suitable for a breezy boat trip. Keep your mobile booking accessible and confirm the exact pickup point and time shown in your confirmation. Snorkeling equipment is not included, so bring your own if you want to snorkel. The catamaran anchors near Papagayo rather than taking you ashore for an independent beach stay. If beach time on land is your priority, choose an option that explicitly includes landing.

Choose this cruise for a boat-led Papagayo experience, not for beach access. Confirm your resort pickup point after booking because transfers use designated nearby stops. Pack a towel, swimwear and strong sun protection. Bring your own snorkel set if you want to snorkel without paying for equipment. Keep a light layer for the return sail if the wind picks up. If anyone in your group is prone to seasickness, prepare before boarding rather than relying on finding medication on the boat. Do not schedule a tight appointment immediately after the advertised finish because hotel-transfer time varies by pickup area.

Cancellation is available up to 0 hours before the activity.
