Where is Lanzarote?
Lanzarote is 40 km of the east coast of Africa, and 1,200 km south of Spain . Only 4 hours flight from the UK , it is the northern most Canary Island . It is owned by Spain , but has a people and culture of its own. Its local people are called Conejeros. It is made up of 180 volcanoes creating a stunning lava landscape.
Why is it the best diving in Europe ?
Diving in Lanzarote has so much to offer scuba diving. Wrecks, caves, sea life, perfect sandy shallow training areas, something new to see all the time. For beginner through to experienced divers, its accessible and well equipped.
The Atlantic drift moves south, hitting the North Shore of Lanzarote, allowing nutrients to flow around the volcanic sea mount. Many soft corals and sponges have thrived, and in turn small fish, then large fish have evolved. Rarely touched by storms, the reef life grows unhindered.
World Biosphere Reserve: Lanzarote has earnt this rating from UNESCO. It has very low pollution levels, sustaining the bio-diversity or marine life.
What evening fun can I expect?
As much or as little as you want. Lanzarote is a very social, laid-back place. It has plenty of bars and restaurants. Locals and tourists mix freely, and our divers and instructors often spend time in the evening over a beer discussing the days dive, and anything that comes to mind! Some divers prefer time alone, and relax with a nice evening meal watching the sunset. Lanzarote is a great all-rounder.
Does Lanzarote have year-round sunshine?
Yes! Being far closer to the equator (on the same latitude as the Sahara Desert ) it is hotter, and has only two seasons. Lanzarote is cooler in the summer than the Mediterranean , but much warmer in the winter.
