Dive Site
Located in Lanzarote's Playa Blanca region, Flamingo is 200m long sandy beach with easy access for all divers. Proximity to the main road makes it easy to reach, there is limited parking close to the beach. Sheltered by two manmade breakwaters on each side Flamingo is ideal for beginners. Once you reach the opening and swim along the big square rock located on the plateau, casual depth up to 4 meters drops down to 15-16 meters to reach sandy bottom.

Angle Sharks
Nice dive site with easy beach entry. The shallow ‘lagoon’ descends to approximately 15 meters along the artificial breakwater reef, which is full of life. The top highlights are Angel sharks, resting on the sandy bottom. It’s great for night dives too.
