Shore-access wreck cluster in Lanzarote with angel sharks.
Quiquere Wrecks is a Lanzarote wreck cluster made up of three wooden fishing boats off Puerto Calero. The two shallower wrecks are easy to work from shore, while the deeper wreck is better left for boat access. It is a classic wreck-and-sand dive with plenty of structure, good photo potential, and a steady stream of Atlantic species around the hulls and surrounding seabed.
