Outing Highlights

THE DIVES

Two guided dives, tailored to you

The core of the day is two guided dives led by professional, well‑trained staff. Grouping happens before each dive according to level and experience, and the team chooses dive sites around your preferences rather than following a fixed roster.

THE WILDLIFE

Seasonal encounters — from nudibranchs to angel sharks

Lanzarote’s marine life is varied and site‑dependent; which species you see will change with dive site, depth and season. For example, species such as angel sharks and nudibranchs favor colder water and are more likely from November through May.

THE CREW

Multilingual team with safety at the fore

An international crew supports divers in German, English, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch and Portuguese. Safety is prioritized: staff assess conditions, group divers by experience, and may alter plans according to weather.
