Water Sports & Activities Tenerife

Tenerife’s warm climate and Atlantic coastline make it the perfect place to swap the pool for an adventure on the water.

Our Tenerife water sports include everything from high-speed jet ski safaris and parasailing to kayaking, snorkelling and beginner scuba diving. You can even take control of your own boat or head further into the Atlantic on a deep-sea fishing trip.

For one of the most popular experiences, the Jet Ski Safari With Pick Up lets you take control of a jet ski and follow your guide along Tenerife’s coastline, with hotel pickup included from selected areas.

For even more performance, the Extreme Jet Ski Safari uses Sea-Doo GTX 130 Pro jet skis and departs from Puerto Colón.

If you want to try several activities during your holiday, our Water Sports Packages combine some of Tenerife’s most popular experiences into one package.

A jet ski safari in Tenerife is one of the most exciting ways to experience the south coast, combining speed, Atlantic scenery and the freedom of being out on the water.

You don’t need previous jet ski experience to take part. Before heading out, you’ll receive instructions and a safety briefing, and your guide will lead the group along the route.

Our jet ski experiences offer different departure points and options, so you can choose the safari that best suits your holiday.

The Jet Ski Safari With Pick Up is particularly convenient if you’re staying in South Tenerife, while the Extreme Jet Ski Safari is ideal for riders looking for a small-group experience from Puerto Colón.

You can ride solo or choose selected double jet ski options to share the experience with a passenger. Check the individual tour before booking for current age requirements, passenger rules and durations.

Not every Tenerife water activity is about speed. There are plenty of ways to experience the Atlantic from above, on the surface and beneath it.

With Parasailing Tenerife, you’ll rise above the ocean for spectacular views across Costa Adeje and Tenerife’s south coast. Flights last approximately 10 minutes, with options for up to three people to fly together.

Prefer to stay closer to the water? The Kayak & Snorkel Tour takes you beneath the cliffs near Los Cristianos, combining kayaking with a snorkelling stop and the chance to encounter Tenerife’s marine life along the route.

Or discover what lies beneath the Atlantic on Try Dive Tenerife. Designed for beginners, the experience introduces you to scuba diving with an instructor alongside you as you explore Tenerife’s volcanic underwater landscape.

These experiences are great choices if you want something different from the traditional beach day while still enjoying Tenerife’s coastline.

Want more freedom on the Atlantic? Tenerife also offers water activities where the journey itself is the experience.

With the Atlanca Self-Drive Boat, you can take the wheel and explore the coastline at your own pace. No boat licence or skipper is required, fuel is included, and you can stop to swim and snorkel during your time on the water.

For something completely different, join the Raggie Sea Fishing trip and head into the Atlantic with an experienced crew for a guided deep-sea fishing experience. Fishing equipment and the required licence are included, making it suitable for beginners as well as more experienced anglers.

Whether you’d rather captain your own boat or spend your time trying to land a catch, both offer a completely different way to experience Tenerife from the water.

The best water activity in Tenerife depends on how much adrenaline you’re looking for and how you want to experience the ocean.

Choose a jet ski safari if speed and excitement are at the top of your list, or take to the sky with parasailing for incredible views across the coast.

Kayaking and snorkelling are ideal if you’d prefer a more relaxed, active experience, while Try Dive gives beginners the opportunity to discover Tenerife beneath the surface.

Groups and families wanting several experiences can choose a water sports package, while a self-drive boat gives you more independence to explore the coast.

Whatever you choose, check the individual activity before booking for age restrictions, what’s included, departure locations and any specific requirements.
