About Charco de San Ginés

In Arrecife it is possible to enjoy a fantastic swim in one of the most emblematic sites of Lanzarote, the Charco de San Ginés. This puddle is one of the most beautiful natural elements of the island, a beautiful saltwater lagoon that is surrounded by charming white fishermen's houses that adds a picturesque point to the environment.

All the access pass to the pool was remodeled by the Canarian artist César Manrique and is adjacent to the famous Barrio de la Puntilla where you can see the most beautiful buildings in the capital Arrecife, such as the Church of San Ginés, Arrecife Town Hall, Puente de las Bolas or the Castillo of San Gabriel.

When you see the Charco de San Ginés you can see a large number of small boats belonging to the fishermen of the area, elements that make the place one of the most beautiful postcards of Lanzarote.

More than 6 centuries ago the Charco de Ginés was a small natural port, with the passing of time it became more important and became the main port of the area. Every Saturday the surroundings host a market of Canarian crafts and products.
