Dive Spot Guide•
Waikiki
Waikiki is a shallow rocky dive off Puerto del Carmen.
Best as a calm-day boat dive with a beginner-friendly inner section and a more current-sensitive outer ridge for guided divers.
About Waikiki
Waikiki is a scenic Lanzarote dive near Puerto del Carmen where shallow volcanic rock, white sand, and coral pockets make the first part easy to read. The route follows the buoyed shallows along one of two rock ridges, then opens into a drop-off with caves and a more serious outer line for qualified divers. It works well for snorkelers and beginners in calm conditions, but the outer section asks for current awareness and a proper guide.
