Los Arcos

Los Arcos is a spectacular dive site off Playa Chica in Puerto del Carmen, Lanzarote, named after its magnificent natural volcanic arches that create dramatic swim-throughs. This beginner-friendly site features a series of lava rock formations with wide arches and passages that allow divers to weave through the underwater landscape. Sunlight filters through the arches, creating stunning light effects on the sandy bottom below. The rock surfaces are alive with sponges, sea slugs, and tube worms, while trumpet fish hover near the archways and schools of salema drift overhead. It is one of the most photographed dive sites in the Canary Islands.
