Had a fantastic day today with the the team at Atlantis Dive Centre, Lanzarote. Our instructor Graizka was very patient and the ultimate professional with my son Matthew (aged 10 ) and myself aged 60:) . I never thought diving would be so much fun and cannot wait until the next opportunity.We felt 100% safe at all times and would highly recommend booking your diving experience with Atlantis Lanzarote

Great tour ! Really recommend to visit the thimalya National park by bus with GYG . It is the most convenient way to visit the mentioned attractions of the island without queuing

It was worth taking this tour. Covers the 3 popular attractions in south Lanzarote, not rushing through and the tour guide Andre was very good.

Very enjoyable. We didn’t see dolphins but it was a lovely evening despite this.

Great diving point and professional staff, also friendly. Top experience
