Few wildlife encounters compare to seeing dolphins from a kayak in their natural environment. This guided coastal tour combines gentle exercise, sea views and the chance to spot some of Tenerife's most famous marine residents while exploring the waters around Los Cristianos.
After meeting your guide on the beach opposite the diving centre, you'll receive a safety briefing and introduction to the kayaks before setting off along the coastline. Once everyone is comfortable, the group heads out onto the Atlantic and begins the journey towards the cliffs of Palm-Mar.
Much of the route follows a stretch of coastline known for its marine life and open-water views. The relaxed pace allows plenty of opportunities to look out across the sea while your guide shares information about the local area and wildlife. Dolphins are regularly seen in these waters, and spotting them from kayak level creates a completely different experience from watching them from a larger boat.
As the tour continues, you'll paddle alongside impressive coastal scenery while enjoying a unique perspective of Tenerife's southern shoreline. Whether dolphins appear close by or further in the distance, spending time on the water surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean is what makes this excursion so memorable.
Launching from Los Cristianos, this tour explores part of Tenerife's southern coastline, an area well known for watersports and marine wildlife. The calm conditions often found here make it a popular location for kayaking throughout the year.
The route passes towards Palm-Mar, where rocky cliffs and open ocean create a striking backdrop for the excursion. This stretch of coast is also one of the island's best-known areas for dolphin sightings.
No kayaking experience is needed to join this tour. Full instruction is provided before departure, making it suitable for beginners as well as those with previous paddling experience.
A reasonable level of fitness is recommended, as you'll be paddling for much of the excursion. Children aged 6 and above are welcome when accompanied by a responsible adult where required.

Dolphins are seen regularly on this route, which is why it has become one of the most popular kayak excursions in the area.
