Best Diving sites in Lanzarote, Canary Islands

The clear waters and undersea life off Lanzarote make it an ideal place to try scuba diving. This experience makes it easy to give the sport a go, and discover whether it’s for you without committing yourself to a longer course.

about

Lanzarote, one of the Canary islands off the coast of West Africa administered by Spain, is known for its year-round warm weather, beaches and volcanic landscape. Timanfaya National Park’s rocky landscape was created by volcanic eruptions in the 1730s. Cueva de los Verdes has caverns formed by an underground river of lava. East-coast resort Puerto del Carmen is home to whitewashed villas, beaches and dive centers.

Get in touch for advice on the easiest way.

about the diving

Technical dives start from 40 metres and can be tailored to meet your specific requirements and certification level, extending to 100 metres plus for appropriately qualified divers.

All of our guided technical dives are by boat to ensure your comfort and safety. Most dives depart from the harbour at Puerto del Carmen, however, if weather permits we can also arrange dives from Playa Blanca to the area of Pechugera west of the lighthouse. For keen wreck divers we can also arrange dives to 75 and 85 metres exploring the deep wrecks of two fishing vessels abandoned off the coast of Arreciffe.

Although our technical dives are guided, by their nature these are often exploratory in nature, taking in areas and sites rarely visited by other divers. For this reason it is important that you have with you all of the required safety equipment including technical diving and emergency SMB, main and back up torch and spare mask.

We offer guided technical dives using normoxic and hypoxic tri-mix as well as air and enriched air nitrox. We have two fully qualified gas blending technicians on-site.  We use only medical grade oxygen and premium helium when preparing our gases for tri-mix diving.
