Boats and the sea
4.6/5
1,604 reviews on GetYourGuide
Book this to see Lanzarote’s sea floor without getting wet: a real passenger submarine dives up to 30 metres off Puerto Calero, past shipwrecks and shoals of fish. It suits almost everyone from age 2, and it is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 1,604 GetYourGuide reviewers. The dive itself is short, about an hour in all.

Check in 30 minutes before your dive at the Submarine Safaris office in Puerto Calero marina. A short coach transfer takes you out to the submarine, the Sub Fun Tres, and down you go.
The cabin has 44 seats and 22 large windows, so everyone gets a view. It is kept at normal atmospheric pressure, which the listing says means pregnant women and people with heart or ear conditions are not affected. Over the dive you descend to as much as 30 metres to see three shipwrecks on the sea floor and fish swimming freely, with an audio guide in 10 languages; headphones are provided.
Back on land you receive a personalised dive certificate and a fish chart, and have time to wander Puerto Calero marina. Dives run up to seven times a day, six days a week.
Pick-up is tied to the dive time: the 11:00 and 13:00 dives collect from Playa Blanca, the 12:00 and 14:00 dives from Costa Teguise and Puerto del Carmen.

Worth knowing: Shorter than some expected
It is the only way on this site to see the underwater world with no swimming at all, which makes it the pick for grandparents, young children and anyone who does not want to snorkel. The try dive for beginners goes deeper into the experience, with a mask and an instructor, but it rules out under-8s and some health conditions.
It is also short, so it pairs well with a lunch in the marina or an afternoon on the beach.
With up to seven dives a day, it is also easy to fit around other plans. The audio guide covers ten languages, including Dutch, Finnish, Norwegian, Polish and Czech as well as English, Spanish, French, German and Italian, which helps mixed groups. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before.
