The trip was everything I had hoped for; kayaking around the coast, enjoying beautiful views in a double kayak with my partner. The day was warm and the sea was calm. Our instructor, Carlos was the perfect combination of informative and fun, he guided us through the experience perfectly. We were very lucky to see several dolphins and they came close to get a good look at us so we could enjoy their beauty and elegance. We had a snorkel with lots of fish and at one point even saw a glimpse of a tortoise pop to the surface of the water. This trip was definitely one of the high points of our holiday. Muchos gracias to Carlos and the other staff there who were all very friendly and helpful. A wonderful experience!

Great kayaking experience. Our guide David was friendly and helpful and took great care of everyone. We didn’t see the animals but still had a good time.

Had an amazing time with a great group of people. Gonzo was especially helpful and such a great guide! We’ve seen a few sea turtles, lots of crabs and many fish while snorkelling. Gonzo went above and beyond when one member of our group accidentally dropped her phone and it fell down to the sea bed. He swam down and collected it for her, which in my opinion he didn’t have to do as she dropped her phone trying to get back into her kayak. Would highly recommend and have already recommended to friends visiting Tenerife this year and have told them to ask for gonzo personally.

Me and my boyfriend booked this activity for something to do and were happy we did!
We took a 10 minutes taxi from costa adeje to los crisitanos. Our guide daniel was very funny, friendly and made us laugh and feel at ease. He gave us a good demonstration/explanation of how to use the kayak and snorkel equipment. He was very knowledge about where to spot marine life, we managed to see turtles and a variety of different fish. Daniel even dived down to the bottom of the sea which must have been around 5-8 metres to retrieve someone's phone that had fallen off the kayak and help those who struggled behind! We were sent free photos at the end of the activity.
Few tips:
Me and my partner were in the same kayak so we helped each other - this is a 3 hour kayak and snorkel the sea is a little choppy and this requires a lot of arm strength so I would recommend this for couples or those who are confident in a kayak, I could feel my muscles in my arms the next day slightly sore from rowing
Don't take your phone even in a waterproof case, kayaks can easily topple over
Its very hot. It was 26 degrees even in February, wear waterproof biofriendly sunscreen, my face and shoulders were burnt by the end of this because of the salt water
Bring water, they recommended this anyway but stay hydrated!
Overall we had such a good time and it was a great way to start our holiday, i would highly recommend.

My partner was new to kayaking, I've dm it a few times, but we both enjoyed it. The guide was very friendly and good at setting the pace so no one was pressured or left behind. He also tld and posted some good photos. We didn't see any turtles or dolphins, but that's the luck of the draw.

This was a great trip that lasted three hours. Carlos was a fantastic guide/leader. You canoe on the Atlantic, but the sea is quite calm and not too cold, and from England in February, wonderful to do this in lovely warm sunshine. We paddled a long way, but soon got a rhythm going in the two-person kayaks (these can't sink, by the way). Look on this as a physical activity, but I'm in my late sixties, and coped fine. The wife took the option of snorkeling at the half way point, and loved it. Totally recommended! Thanks again Carlos,

Excellent trip with Gonzo as our guide. Saw dolphins, crabs and many fish. Would suggest a reasonable level of fitness as it is quite a way to kayak?
