About chartering in Marina Lanzarote
Chartering in Marina Lanzarote means easy sailing from Arrecife into Lanzarote’s volcanic coastline and the open waters of the Canary Islands. The base is on the island’s main harbour side, with the capital of Arrecife nearby and sailing yacht charters available from this port.
From here, the usual departure area is Marina Lanzarote in Arrecife, which is also known as a practical base for exploring the island’s east and south coasts. For day sailing, the closest waters include sheltered coastal stretches, anchorages off Lanzarote, and onward passages toward nearby islands when conditions and time allow.
Day trips can reach scenic bays around Lanzarote and, for longer outings, the island group around the eastern Canaries. The sailing style here is generally coastal rather than offshore-heavy, making Marina Lanzarote a good starting point for relaxed one-day cruises and short island-hopping routes.
