Fuerteventura Snorkeling: Volcanic Reef & Marine Life
Snorkel a volcanic reef without needing to swim
A guided snorkeling activity in Fuerteventura where you wear a buoyancy vest and spend 50 minutes exploring a shallow volcanic reef teeming with fish and marine animals. The guide speaks English, Spanish, French or German, and pickup is included; children from age 4 can join.
The Experience
You arrive at a shallow snorkeling site where lava has built volcanic rock formations and fish congregate in numbers. The buoyancy vest keeps you afloat, so swimming ability is not a requirement—you can explore the underwater world at your own pace. A live guide leads the group and points out the marine life moving through the reef.
You spend 50 minutes in the water, moving through the formations and watching the animals that live among the rocks. The site is designed for all ages and fitness levels, and children as young as 4 can join. The whole activity runs about 90 minutes from start to finish.
Pickup is arranged for you, and the guide is available in English, Spanish, French or German. Snorkeling equipment—mask, fins, vest—is provided.
What’s included
- Snorkeling equipment including mask, fins and buoyancy vest.
- a live guide in your choice of language.
- pickup.
