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.

Lucia was amazing

4.00It was fun—about two hours of paddling (approx 3 miles)… the snorkeling was not the best in the world but did see some parrot fish, a puffer fish, and either a turtle or a rock! Just kidding, the guide did see the turtle and pointed it out to us. The dolphins were probably about 1/4 of a mile away (you cannot approach because they go to a private fishery to eat)—it was cool to see them but it was far away. The guide was great and very informative for everyone. Thank you Lucia!!
Nice experience

5.00Very nice trip, we saw a few dolphins the turtles were a bit further away. They are still wild animals so you still need some luck. Our guide Pablo was very nice and gave good instructions

5.00I really enjoyed the experience, especially with Daniela, who was the guide with whom we did the kayaking. We were able to see many dolphins and they provided us with wetsuits (the water was quite cold and they were very helpful). For me, it was a unique experience to see the dolphins in that way!

5.00Incredible experience that I would repeat; our guide Pablo made this excursion unforgettable with the sighting of dolphins at a very close distance, in addition to a wide variety of fish swimming beneath us. The snorkeling was very fun, and we also saw crabs and other fish. Highly recommended.

5.00My boyfriend and I booked this experience without knowing exactly what it was about. I must say it far exceeded expectations, thanks to the expertise and friendliness of the guide who led us on an interesting kayak tour where we were able to see turtles and dolphins in their natural environment. Even the snorkeling near the coast was more than satisfactory. I can only recommend this super organized experience with a very good quality-price ratio!
