The Experience

Salt on my lips, sun warming my shoulders—right from the start, this private yacht trip off Tenerife felt like a real escape. Our crew greeted us at Puerto Colón with easy smiles and a tray of chilled cava. The Atlantic was calm that morning, just a soft breeze and the distant sound of gulls circling the marina. We slipped out past the breakwater and suddenly it was just us, blue water all around, and the gentle hum of the boat.

We didn’t have to worry about a thing—snacks kept appearing (I’m still thinking about those little local cheeses and olives), and our glasses never stayed empty for long. At one point, our guide pointed out a pod of dolphins playing near the bow; you could actually hear them clicking if you listened close enough. Later we anchored in a quiet cove—Playa de las Vistas maybe?—and jumped in for snorkeling. The water was clear but chilly at first; after a few minutes though, I barely noticed. There were colorful fish darting between rocks below.

This wasn’t just about sightseeing. It felt personal—like celebrating something special even if it was just being there together. The crew snapped photos when we asked (they knew all the best angles), but mostly let us do our own thing: sunbathing on deck, chatting over cold beers, or just soaking up that endless view of the southern Tenerife coast.
