Diving in La Graciosa
Diving into the crystal-clear waters of La Graciosa means diving into the largest marine reserve in Europe, offering a one-of-a-kind underwater experience.
With more than 20 dive sites, this underwater paradise is full of life. From majestic schools of fish and vibrant corals to volcanic formations and 16th-century archaeological remains.
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced diver, La Graciosa promises unforgettable adventures in a protected natural environment that boasts unmatched biodiversity.
La Burrera
La Burrera is a magical spot with incredible underwater landscapes that every diver must experience.
Famous for its labyrinth of rocks, arches, columns, and ledges that look like something from another planet, this site is one of the last paradises where the kelp forest remains untouched, free from the dreaded sea urchin that has devastated other areas.
Here, the currents and waves have created a true oasis of plant life, making you feel like you’re diving in the Canary Islands over a hundred years ago.
The marine life is just as impressive. Canary lobsters, giant groupers, and the striped burrito fish that give the dive its name will accompany you throughout your adventure. With a bit of luck, you may even spot rare species like the captain wrasse or soldierfish, adding an extra touch of magic to your dive.
Diving in La Burrera feels like discovering a hidden world where nature continues to surprise you at every turn.
Las Anclas
Las Anclas is a unique and fascinating dive site located between Lanzarote and La Graciosa, perfect for diving enthusiasts.
This rocky ridge stretches for almost a kilometer, creating an underwater landscape full of life and history. The southwest side is particularly impressive, with steep walls and breathtaking rock formations.
Here, you can explore areas rich in biodiversity and be amazed by ancient anchors resting on the seabed, some dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries.
During the dive, you’ll encounter a wide variety of marine species such as rays, parrotfish, groupers, wrasse, and the rare black drum fish.
This site is perfect for divers who enjoy both marine life and historical relics, as the anchors scattered along the route tell part of the maritime history of the region.
Las Anclas is a true underwater museum, where nature and history blend to offer an unforgettable diving experience.

El Veril de las Langostas
El Veril de las Langostas, at the southern end of El Veril de las Agujas, is a charming spot for divers.
What makes this area special is its rocky formations, with sharp edges and crevices where the lobsters hide, giving the site its name.
As you explore this unique landscape, you’ll be amazed by the variety of fish that call it home, from schools of grunts and bogas to swift barracudas darting through the fish, hunting for food.
One of the most interesting spots is a rocky amphitheater, where grunts gather, creating a spectacular scene.
The Veril offers multiple routes, with rocks and hidden spots to explore, allowing for a new experience with every dive.
Just a few meters from the edge, you’ll find a beautiful yellow gorgonian, battling the currents in search of food. Look closely, and you’ll discover tiny shrimp and snails perfectly camouflaged.
However, divers should be mindful of the occasional current in the area, so it’s important to dive with caution.
El Veril de las Langostas is a world of underwater surprises you won’t want to miss.
Dive Briefing:
Las Cañas
Las Cañas is a labyrinth carved into the rock, filled with passages and caves that seem straight out of a dream, with towering columns, arches, and multiple exits that invite exploration.
The rocky walls are draped in colorful algae, providing shelter for all kinds of marine life.
During the dive, it’s easy to spot schools of anchovies, bogas, and grunts hiding in the crevices or swimming in large, compact groups.
You’ll also encounter gorgonians, groupers, barracudas, black drum fish, and many other species that bring this underwater world to life.
Additionally, the light streaming through the cave openings creates a visual spectacle, with stunning backlight effects that seem otherworldly.
Under a stone promontory covered in algae, the caves and arches rest on the sandy bottom, offering a haven for marine creatures.
Las Cañas is a breathtaking place where nature and light come together to offer an unforgettable underwater experience.
