🌊 Kayaking Excursion in Tenerife with Sea Turtles

Our kayak tour in Tenerife takes place in the south of the island, in Palm-Mar, one of  Tenerife's most fascinating marine protected areas. During the excursion, it's common to spot sea turtles in their natural habitat, as well as tropical fish and occasionally dolphins. Kayaking in Tenerife is also suitable for beginners and families, thanks to the calm waters and the presence of an expert local guide.

Enjoy an authentic experience in the heart of southern Tenerife with a guided kayak excursion suitable for everyone, even first-timers. We depart daily from Playa La Arenita – Palm-Mar, one of the quietest and most natural areas on the island, to explore the marine reserve, the Pal-Mar cliffs, and a small bay perfect for snorkeling. Thanks to our local guides, you'll experience a safe, exciting adventure filled with spectacular views, far from the crowded areas.
