The Canyon is a beginner-friendly dive site on the northern coast of Lanzarote near Arrieta, reaching 18 meters depth. This site features a volcanic rock canyon that channels divers through an exciting narrow passage with walls rising on both sides. The canyon floor is sandy with scattered rocks, while the walls shelter moray eels, nudibranchs, and small crustaceans. Schools of Atlantic fish including salema and damselfish fill the canyon, and the surrounding reef hosts parrotfish, trumpetfish, and octopuses. The moderate depth and generally protected canyon environment make this an accessible adventure dive, offering the excitement of swim-throughs without requiring advanced certification.
