This cave, located near Cueva de los Verdes and Jameos del Agua in the Malpais de La Corona, is part of the volcanic tube system originating from Volcán de La Corona and stretching all the way to the sea. The cave itself is around 790 meters long, reaching a depth of 50 meters below sea level.
Gran tubular cavern, just over 6 km long on land, continuing under the seabed for at least 1.5 km more
It is considered one of the most fascinating caves for caving enthusiasts on the island. The cave features a spectacular entrance with a leftward slope and very large galleries, which are marked by significant landslides. At the end of the cave, you can find three beautiful lakes that extend through the volcanic tube, making it a unique experience for adventurers.
The cave is accessed through Jameo Perdido, a vertical jameo approximately 10 meters high. The access ramp is covered in loose material, with a steep 45º incline. Once inside, the tube is wide and easy to navigate at first, with large blocks from the ceiling creating a natural obstacle course as you move through the high galleries.
First Section: After passing through the blocks, you encounter the first lake. Here, you have two choices:
Swim through the lake (at high tide, it can be very tight, with little air space).
Take an upper route through a small opening to bypass the lake.
Second Lake: Once you reach the second lake, you face two options again:
Go through the upper section via a small opening to the next lake.
Continue the aquatic route, which requires cave diving techniques. This section, around 50 meters long, has a submerged tube that eventually leads to the end of the diving section, where you can breathe again.
Third Lake and Beyond: From the third lake onward, the route becomes entirely aquatic, continuing until it reaches its end. The final part of the cave requires cave diving for about 300 more meters.
This cave offers a thrilling experience for those prepared to venture into the depths, with its aquatic sections and beautiful natural formations making it one of the most extraordinary caving experiences on Lanzarote.
Currently it is closed to the general public to conserve “the volcanic structure and preserve endemism and invertebrate fauna” that are in this place.
However, universities, educational centers or research, study and conservation entities, as well As well as others of a tourist nature and educational purposes that require access to the volcanic tube, �must apply for the relevant permits and authorizations at the Environment Service of the Cabildo de Lanzarote.�
