My wife and I will be visiting the Canary Islands (CI), specifically Lanzarote, in October. As this will be our first time visiting these islands, I'd appreciate any ideas or recommendations from anyone with CI experience. TIA!

Any surprises...anything special that we should bring or think about as we prepare?Just saw your post now. I was on Lanzarote in may, in Puerto del Carmen, and absolutely loved it. What questions do you have? I'll answer what I can.
Ah perfect. I was staying in Puerto del Carmen (near Pocadillos) and diving with a center there as well. Aquanautic Club Lanzarote. It's german led, but they have a team of 2 germans and one spanish. All speak English. No Danish I suppose but that shouldn't be an issue. It's a great dive center. I was there in may and returned in october. They'll take you to the spots I mentioned. In october they had a weekly trip to Playa Blanca and once a week a boat dive from Playa Chica. The local diving is Playa Chica from shore. They have a nice center and are really knowledgable about gear as well if you happen to have an issue. They can also accomodate SM if that's what you dive. Feel free to dm for more details. And if you dive with them, say hi from CelineIt doesn't really matter where we are staying, we will have a car so we can drive anywhere. But it will be in a small place close to Tias
Did you have a good experience with any dive center?
What were your favourite dive spots? I saw they have a "blue hole" that looks interesting.
Did you dive the museum too? Seems so expensive...
