The Port of Arrecife is the main port facility for Lanzarote and the second busiest in the Canary Islands in terms of passengers.[4] It handles passenger ferries, cruise ships and ro-ro cargo, but also bulk, breakbulk, containers, liquid bulk, and has a large fishing port.[3]

Cruise port

Arrecife is a major cruise port with over 400,000 cruise passenger visits per annum.[4] Most cruise ships now dock at the La Boca de Puerto Naos, which is closer to the city than the berths at the commercial port.[5]
