About the experience
This guided kayak and snorkeling adventure invites you to explore the wild, marine side of Tenerife in a calm, respectful, and immersive way. The experience begins at the local base, where you’ll be welcomed by certified guides and equipped with everything you need.
After a short preparation and safety briefing, you’ll walk just a few minutes to the beach — where the kayaks are already waiting for you. No heavy lifting, no stress. Once on the water, you’ll paddle along the coast and gradually leave the port behind, entering the open ocean.
Along the way, your guide will share insights about the surrounding landscape, nearby islands, and the marine ecosystem that makes this area so special.
This part of Tenerife is known for frequent sightings of turtles and dolphins. If you encounter them, you’ll observe these animals quietly and responsibly, without chasing or disturbing them — a truly ethical wildlife experience.
The journey continues toward a coastal cave, where you’ll stop to swim and snorkel in shallow, crystal-clear waters. Here, you can spot colorful fish and, with some luck, stingrays resting on the seabed. Guides assist you throughout the experience, including helping everyone safely in and out of the kayaks.
Optionally you can upgrade your experience with an underwater scooter for an additional €5 per person, allowing you to glide effortlessly below the surface and explore the marine world in an even more dynamic and fun way. As you paddle back, photos and videos are taken to capture both the adventure and the special moments on the water.
These memories will be shared with you a few days after the experience, so you can relive your time at sea. This experience is designed to be accessible, relaxed, and unforgettable — perfect for first-time kayakers, nature lovers, and anyone wanting to connect with Tenerife from a different perspective.
