As you quietly paddle through the waters of Los Cristianos, the sea's curious inhabitants come to say hello, waiting for you to jump in and swim with them. Being welcomed by wildlife is an extraordinary adventure that simply shouldn't be missed.
After meeting at 10:30 a.m., your guide takes you to the smooth entry point on the beach. Apart from a life jacket and all equipment, we provide small buckets to keep your personal items and snacks dry. And if you've never been in a kayak before, everything is explained so that you enter the water safely and with confidence.
Because the movement of kayaks remains smooth and relatively slow, our presence does not disturb or frighten the wildlife. On a typical day, it takes no more than 25 minutes of paddling across the turquoise water before we have up to 30 dolphins swimming beneath us or leaping into the air with a friendly splash. There are five different species of dolphins living on this southern coast of Tenerife, the bottlenose dolphin being the most common. Averaging 2.6 m (8'5 ft) in length and living in large groups, these cheerful mammals are quite difficult to miss!
With the sun shining on the Atlantic's clear surface, we reach a picturesque bay, get our snorkels ready, and hop into the water. The rich sea life is a world of vivid colors and new fish friends racing around you. Turtles tend to get very close within just a few minutes, and majestic bull rays move across the sea bed below us.
For such a unique experience, you want to be enjoying every moment. We take pictures of you throughout the tour so you can explore without worry. At the end of our journey, we make sure you have great photos as a memory of your adventure in Tenerife.

Mooie kayaktocht. 3 km heen. 1 dolfijn gezien. Iets verder meerdere schildpadden onder de kayaks. Prachtig! Op het keerpunt gesnorkeld en schildpadden gezien. Prima uitleg en begeleiding. Zorgzaam. Op de terugweg meerdere dolfijnen gezien. Ik had nog wel uren kunnen dobberen op zee. Heerlijk.

Our tour guide was really friendly. She knew the area really well and took good care of everyone from the front to the back. She got us within 5m of the dolphins and found us 3 turtles when we went snorkelling. That was my favourite part.
