Playa Blanca (Spanish for "White Beach") is the southernmost town of the Spanish island of Lanzarote. It is the newest resort on the island and is part of the municipality of Yaiza.

The coastline around Playa Blanca is essentially one large 9-kilometer-wide bay, which is then broken up into three smaller but still large bays. From east to west, these are Playa Dorada, Playa Blanca, and Playa Flamingo. This basic geography means that the beaches in and around Playa Blanca are sheltered.

The Atlantic Ocean is to the east, west, and south. From the inland edge of the town to the interior, the landscape is level and volcanic. The main road route to Playa Blanca is the LZ-2, heading north from the town then eastwards to the capital, Arrecife. The second significant road route is the LZ-702 mountain road heading northeast from Playa Blanca via Maciot and Femes, connecting to the LZ-2 at an interchange near Uga.

ⓘ 'Erionite Subgroup'
Formula: M2[Al4Si14O36] · 15H2O
Habit: silky-fibrous

Description: often as overgrowths with Offretite on the {0001} pinacoid of Levyne plates
ⓘ 'Fayalite-Forsterite Series'
ⓘ Gobbinsite

ⓘ Mesolite
Formula: Na2Ca2Si9Al6O30 · 8H2O
Habit: Thin needles, to 10mm long, forming radiating groups

ⓘ Motukoreaite
Formula: Mg6Al3(OH)18[Na(H2O)6][SO4]2 · 6H2O
Habit: rosettes consisting of platy crystals
Description: SEM-EDS and XRD analyses performed by Joy Desor. XRD results showed a few unidentified peaks; it is, therefore, more than likely that there is a second phase present. The analyses also showed that MgO was low and S was high. Zamarreño et al. (1989) proved that in Motukoreaite, the concentration of sulfate ions varies between 9 and 18%, and that part of the sulfate ions can be replaced by carbonate ions.
