About this site
Los Arcos lies along the volcanic coastline near Puerto del Carmen, on the southern shore of Lanzarote in the Canary Islands. The site sits in an area of rocky reef and arch formations carved from the island's basalt, reached by short boat trips from the harbor at Puerto del Carmen. It is a drift dive, and conditions here are rated advanced.
