What To Expect
Join this 3-hour kayaking & snorkeling adventure in Tenerife and get up close and personal with turtles and dolphins in their natural environment. Enjoy the beauty of sighting these beautiful animals in the wild, responsibly respecting their freedom and habitat. The adventure takes you along the spectacular cliffs of Guaza Mountain, which is a natural monument. The mountain stands over 400 m above sea level and the picturesque vertical cliffs provide a sanctuary and nesting place for many species of birds. After snorkeling in crystal clear waters, kayaking back to the starting point allows a great opportunity to view the coast of Tenerife and Teide from the sea and almost every time we are lucky to see playful dolphins along the way. While turtles or dolphins sighting is not guaranteed, there is a 90% chance of seeing them during the tour. It is mandatory to be able to swim in order to take part in the activity. The minimum age is 14 years old, this activity is not suitable for pregnant ladies.

5.00It was a great tour on which we saw a lot (turtles, dolphins and rays). It would have been perfect if you had also learned about the other tour participants.

5.00I am new to kayaking. I have only ever kayaked once years ago. I felt in such good hands with Miguel and Guillaume. They were kind and paid exquisite attention to the experience of their guests. Guillaume was often at the very back of the group of kayakers to see how we were all doing. Miguel was leading and often checked to see how were doing and would call for a break, if needed. They were both wonderful, kind, experienced guides.
Unforgettable experience

5.00We were traveling with guide Coco and he did really great! Whether you are a beginner or an advanced skier, the kayak ride out to sea was very easy to handle thanks to the instructions of the guide. We were lucky enough to see many dolphins swimming very close to us. Snorkeling in a secluded bay was also a great experience. All around a really successful trip, highly recommended!
Seeing dolphins was the highlight of our holiday

5.00It's a must see experience for anyone who loves water and dolphins. Great and easy to find location of the office, our guide - Luis - spoke in Spanish, English and French, so he explained everything to everyone and he was super helpful and great fun. It's good for total beginners and for people who are more experienced. We were lucky as the weather was amazing and seeing around 10 dolphins swimming just a few metres away from us was the most beautiful experience - totally worth doing. Snorkeling was great too. We booked our kayaking online. They also gave us a container where we put some of our small belongings and took it with us onto the kayak. There were lockers to leave our bags there. Flip-flops are important - we only had sandals, but it was ok too. We highly recommend this experience.
Great experience and Bea on top

5.00Great experience as this kayak trip with Bea as guide. We had the chance to do this outing in a very small group which allowed us to take our time well. We went out at 9:30 to be present at the time when the animals feed it and we managed to observe three turtles as well as many dolphins. The snorkling part was very nice also Bea gave us a very good explanation about turtles, dolphins and other fish observed. We highly recommend
Amazing.

5.00It was a good few hours spent and good value for money. The guide was good and always conscious of where people were and raining them in if they were going outside the group. Not done snorkelling before so was a good experience and will definitely do again. Managed to see Dolphins and a stingray and of course fish. Would recommend xplore they were organised helpful and professional
