Pecio de Puerto del Carmen: Lanzarote wreck park.
Pecio de Puerto del Carmen is a harbour-wall wreck park in Lanzarote, where several wrecks were sunk to create an artificial reef. The shallow wrecks sit close to the harbour structure and are easy to read, while the deeper pieces turn the site into a more serious wreck dive that rewards clean buoyancy, route discipline, and certification-aware planning.
