Kayak and snorkel near Los Cristianos, paddle cliffs to Cave of Pal Mar, and explore marine life with small-group guides in Tenerife.

“Disappointing Experience – Would Not Recommend We were really looking forward to this kayaking trip in Tenerife, but unfortunately it fell far short of expectations. I went with my partner and our 11-year-old daughter, on arrival we were given a 3-person kayak. Our daughter had to sit in the middle, which was extremely cramped and uncomfortable for her the entire time. Upon arrival, we were surprised to be told that no water would be provided, despite the hot weather. We had to rush to a nearby shop to buy some before the trip started. For a tour in 28°C heat, this felt like a major oversight. During the tour, we…”

Kayak and snorkel in Tenerife with sea turtles near PalmMar rocks, plus possible dolphins. Guided 30-minute snorkel, pickup options.

“It's my first time to do kayaking and snorkeling. Ayop, our tour guide, gave us an incredible and memorable experience. He was very patient and helpful. You can tell that he really likes what he does and not just doing it for the money. We saw a turtle surfacing the water but unfortunately we couldn't go near it as it was located near a protected area of the sea. Nonetheless, the overall experience was espectacular. He took us to a safer area to do our snorkeling as the waves were getting rough. He took pictures and videos in his GoPro. He will even lend it to you as you snorkel.…”

Kayak and snorkel in Tenerife from Los Cristianos, spotting turtles and dolphins, exploring sea caves, with included photos and gear.

“Iveta is very enthusiast an have passion for the ocean. We where lucky to see dolpins , turtles and a black stingray . When snorkeling it was like diving in a deep sea aquarium. And.. We got photo's and video's from the trip for free which was a very good service. We booked a paraglide tour before and we need to pay a lot for the activity and a lot for the photo's afterwards , so having them for free was a big surprise. Thanks again for the memorable trip.”

Kayak the volcanic coast from Los Cristianos, explore caves, snorkel with provided gear, and chase turtles and dolphins on a small-group trip.

“Le nom de l'activité laisse supposer que nous verrons à coup sûr des dauphins alors que ce n'est pas le cas. Nous n'avons pas vu un seul dauphin, encore moins de tortues etc... Seulement quelques tout petits poissons. Mon masque fuyait, j'ai du tellement le serrer que j'étais très oppressée. Avec le filet de sauvetage on ne peut pas du tout descendre sous la surface et on ne voit pas grand chose du coup. Guide plutôt gentil mais ne nous surveille pas assez pendant le snorkeling, j'ai été prise d'une crise de panique et malgré mes signes il n'a pas vu que j'avais besoin d'aide et j'ai du rejoindre mon…”
