Detailed description

Diving with sharks: enjoy this fascinating experience in the aquarium in Costa Teguise on Lanzarote

The Canary Islands are located just off the coast of Africa. They are a volcanic archipelago of islands that are mostly dry and warm all year-round. Lanzarote is the most northerly of the larger Canary Islands. With the exception of a few small sandy and stony beaches, the coastline is surrounded by rocky cliffs leading up to the 600-metre-high barren stone mountains. The beauty of the landscape is not found in a rich variety of species of flora and fauna, although there are some species that have specifically adapted to the dry conditions here and are only found locally. What will fascinate you are the red and golden rocks that glimmer in the sunlight as it falls between the black plains.

There are also many Atlantic fish species to be discovered here, as well as a species of albino crab, which usually lives at a depth of several thousand metres. You can see all of these fascinating sea creatures at the Costa Teguise Aquarium. If you choose to go diving with sharks on Lanzarote, you can even experience some of the more dangerous marine creatures up close! As the main attraction involving bamboo sharks, groupers and a 1.5-metre long ray, a 1.8-metre long nurse shark is waiting for you if you feel brave enough to pay it a visit. Diving with the sharks on Lanzarote will give you a unique insight into life in the water, with plenty of excitement and adrenaline. This course is also suitable for beginners, even if they don’t have a diving permit, thanks to the excellent training provided by the diving instructor!

I was a bit scared at first

But the fear was taken directly and it became an unforgettable event. Is recommended for anyone who wants to do something "more extraordinary".
