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.

You need good waterproof suncream, drinking water and adequate fitness but you may see dolphins and turtles if Marco rings them first. There's good instructions from the guide throughout. Be careful with loose items, one pair of sunglasses got lost when a couple got back into completely the wrong canoe and upended another single canoe in the process. A strapped down container is provided for your locker key back at base where you can leave your belongings. You can also strap down your flip flops. If you don't have much upper body strength getting back into the kayak is a challenge. Fortunately Marco our instructor dragged me back in twice but it was undignlfied to say the least! Overall a worthwhile trip but you must be willing to pay attention for your own safety. Don't underestimate the challenge, one canoe had to towed back by Marco as the occupants struggled and im pretty sure I will ache tomorrow. You may be asked to take your canoe back to the meeting point on a little dolly if you are on a later tour so be prepared to pull your weight!

After two postponements due to the storm, we were finally able to do our kayak tour – and it was absolutely worth it! ☀️ The weather was perfect and the tour was just fantastic. Our guide Jack was super friendly, explained a lot, joked in between and made us feel safe at all times. You immediately notice that he knows what he is doing and is there with a lot of passion. The absolute highlight: We saw dolphins – an unforgettable moment! 🐬 And again a huge thank you to Jack, who even rescued my phone from 8 m depth from the sea – absolute hero! 🙌🏼 Without him it would probably be part of the Atlantic now 🦀 And best of all: I even had a waterproof case with rope... still wasn’t enough 😬 A little tip for everyone: Take good care of your phones... I had already come to terms with the fact that it now lives in the sea 🙂 Thanks for this great experience – we would do it again anytime! ❤️
Perfect for a sunny day

Absolutely fantastic couple of hours. Really great guide/instructor Jack. We are a couple in our late 60s and felt really safe with the whole set up, kit provided and instructions. We saw Turtles and Dolphins, a great day. Would highly recommend even if you’ve not kayaked before, like us. Sean and Jane

Incredible Experience with Mario and Jessi

This is definitely a MUST do for Tenerife. We had a lovely morning with Mario and Jessi who were accommodating and great at pointing out the Turtles and Dolphins along the way. They were very knowledgeable about the island and the species on it. We were able to see many incredible fish snorkeling as well. They even took us to a cave. If you are looking for a once in a lifetime experience, I would 10/10 recommend Mario and Jessi.
