Our guided snorkelling experience offers a chance to improve your skills while exploring the diverse marine life just off the coast. With expert instructors, the session balances learning with the enjoyment of the underwater environment, suitable for both beginners and those with some snorkelling experience.
The session begins at the dive school where participants receive a safety briefing and guidance on snorkelling techniques to help improve their skills in the water. Following a gentle pre-snorkel stretch routine, you will be suited up with all necessary equipment provided by trusted suppliers. The group then walks just two minutes to the nearby ocean access point, ensuring minimal hassle before entering the water.
Once in the water, the expert guide leads you through a carefully selected route teeming with marine life, offering tips on breathing and observation techniques to maximise your snorkelling experience. The session focuses on both safety and skill development, with instructors maintaining close contact to support each participant and enhance their confidence. The pace is relaxed, allowing time to appreciate the rich underwater environment and build snorkelling competence.
The starting point is located within Jardines del Puerto Shopping Centre in Puerto Del Carmen, Tías, Lanzarote, providing easy access to essential facilities and parking.

You may also want to bring sunscreen to protect exposed skin before and after the session, plus a water bottle to stay hydrated.
Since all snorkelling equipment is provided, there’s no need to bring your own gear unless you prefer to use personal items like a mask or snorkel.
