Snorkeling in Tenerife: Catamaran with Swimming & Snacks

Sail, swim and snorkel at your own pace off the Tenerife coast

Snorkeling in Tenerife combines a catamaran sail from Puerto Colón with swimming and underwater exploration off Costa Adeje. You'll use included snorkel gear to discover fish and marine life, relax on deck between swims, and enjoy complimentary snacks, drinks and views of Mount Teide from the sea.

The experience

The Kalima Kat leaves Puerto Colón in southern Tenerife and sails along the Costa Adeje coastline, where you can sunbathe on deck, watch for marine wildlife and take in the views of the ocean and Mount Teide. The boat heads to a quiet stretch of water where the real snorkeling begins. You'll get in with the included snorkel kit and spend time exploring the seabed at your own pace, spotting fish and whatever else the Atlantic holds that day. Between water time, you're back on deck with complimentary snacks, beer, wine, soft drinks and bottled water.

The trip alternates between sailing and swimming so you're never stuck in one mode. You can take multiple dips, use the snorkel gear as much as you want, or simply stay on deck if you prefer to watch the coast slip past. Restrooms are on board, and the atmosphere is built around unwinding rather than rushing, a good fit for couples, groups of friends and families alike. Infants sit on an adult's lap. The activity suits all fitness levels.

The boat returns along the coast, giving you another chance to see Fañabé, Torviscas and, weather permitting, Mount Teide rising from the sea.
