Caleta del Mojón Blanco
A small beach in the municipality of Haría, on the north coast of Lanzarote. The island's official tourism portal places it next to Caletón Blanco, close to the fishing village of Órzola, and names it alongside Punta Prieta among the coves of that stretch of coast. The same portal reminds visitors to keep a responsible attitude at all times and not to put their safety at risk in these less frequented parts of the shoreline.
Caleta del Mojón Blanco is one of the small beaches on the north coast of Lanzarote, in the municipality of Haría. The island's official tourism portal places it beside Caletón Blanco, a spot of pure white sand and calm water sheltered by the tongue of eroded lava that shapes it, less than two kilometres from Órzola. Next to Caletón Blanco the portal names the small beaches of Punta Prieta and Caleta del Mojón Blanco.
This is a little frequented stretch of coast, and the portal is firm about keeping a responsible attitude and not putting your safety at risk in such places. The guidance for the island's shoreline asks visitors to leave no waste behind, not even cigarette ends, not to collect stones or alter the landscape, to avoid noise, and not to disturb the wildlife or damage the sand-dwelling plants. Órzola, close by, is the departure point for ferries to La Graciosa.

Playa de Puntalarga
Playa de Puntalarga is a small bay on the coastline of Fuencaliente de La Palma, about a hundred metres long and twenty metres wide, with a mix of sand and callao pebbles. Small rocky outcrops shelter it from the sea and the swell stays moderate. A natural rock pool lies right beside the beach, and the whole corner is ringed by fishermen's huts, with fishermen often at work there.
