Here are some ideas on what water sports and activities in Tenerife you can do to make the most of your holiday.

Diving

Safari with Kayak in Tenerife South (1)

If you want to explore Tenerife’s underwater landscapes but have never been scuba diving before, now is the time to do it. Tenerife is the island of choice for many scuba divers because of its natural wealth and beautiful views. Tenerife’s seabed is home to a unique biodiversity of great value for exploration.

With our Try Dive, your first diving experience will be unforgettable. We offer you a unique experience full of excitement. The first time you dive to the seabed you will feel a set of emotions that are difficult to describe. Swim alongside the turtles and other marine species of this region of the island.

We work with diving schools with extensive experience in the sector. You will be accompanied by a diving instructor who will guide you and teach you all the basics. First you will learn the theory and then comes the best part, the practice. Don’t think twice and come and discover the wonders of the seabed in the south of Tenerife. Diving is one of the most popular water activities in Tenerife.

Jetski in Tenerife

Another great activity to do is JetSkiing. This fast and fun activity can be made even more exciting by combining it with a visit to the cliffs of Los Gigantes in our JetSki Safari Los Gigantes activity. You will be absolutely blown away when you see these huge rocks rising right out of the ocean.

The jet skiing activity is as exciting as it is fun. Experience great speeds and feel the wind caressing your face.

Parascending

Parascending in Tenerife South

Enjoy a bird’s eye view of the coastline with parascending, also known as water paragliding. This is a thrilling activity that takes you into the air to fly freely. Don’t worry if you’re inexperienced, you’ll be in good hands.

It is a fun activity for all ages. It consists of a parachute attached to the boat by a rope. The parascending equipment attaches you to the parachute so that you can soar through the air as the boat moves forward. Imagine the thrill of soaring through the air like a bird and enjoying the beautiful views of the coastline. Plus, it’s even more fun if you go with a group of friends, all excited and screaming with joy.

Banana boat

Now let’s talk about the banana boat, one of the most popular water activities all over the world. It is a banana-shaped boat in which several people are seated. The thrill begins when the boat moves forward at high speed and everyone is pulled into the water by the inertia.

The most exciting part of the activity is competing to see who can hold out the longest on board the banana. It is a fun activity to enjoy with friends. Tenerife awaits you with lots of fun in the water so don’t hesitate and contact us on WhatsApp to make your reservations.

Flying fish

This activity is similar to the banana boat. The fun is guaranteed and your mission will be to hold on tight so you don’t get blown up in the air.

Extreme Flyboarding

Flyboard in Tenerife South

If you’re looking for a great, adrenaline-filled experience, try flyboarding. This is one of Tenerife’s most sought after water sports for adrenaline junkies.

Flyboarding consists of a dynamic board that allows you to do crazy stunts on the water. The board is attached to the jet ski and a hose that lets the water through and uses it as a propeller. When the jet ski starts the fun begins. You have to be attentive and prepared to manoeuvre the Flyboard correctly. The activity is as much fun when you are learning as when you are an expert.

Kayaking

Safari with Kayak in Tenerife South (1)

In Tenerife you can also enjoy an exciting kayaking adventure. Enjoy yourself on board a canoe propelled by paddles. Use your strength to take the canoe as far as you want. You will be able to see incredible places in the ocean and share with marine animals that inhabit the place such as dolphins and turtles.

Water sports packages in Tenerife

If you want to do more than one activity, you can save some money by booking one of our discounted water sports packages. When you book the package of activities, you pay less than you would when booking each activity separately.

Jet Ski and Parascending

With this special package you can do two of the most fun activities in Tenerife South.

Ride at high speed on board of a sensational jet ski. Feel at one with the sea. Enjoy the freedom and the pleasure of sailing on the ocean. This is Tenerife, fun and adrenaline on the water. But that’s not all, you will also have the possibility to fly over the air doing parascending. We give you the opportunity to get to know the island from the water and also from the air.

Jetski, Parascending and Fly Fishing

If you are an amateur fisherman or you want to get to know the flavour of the Canary Islands through its fresh fish, we have what you need. In addition to enjoying a jetski ride and parascending, you can fish in the majestic Atlantic Ocean. The biggest fish in the ocean awaits you. Take pictures of your adventure and tell your friends about your wonderful holiday full of activities in Tenerife.

I hired the atlanca boat as a surprise for my husbands 40th birthday and it was honestly the best day and lots of fun. Easy to book, when we arrived Patrick did the paperwork and explained everything then Fran gave us all the safety information on how to ride the boat. Everything was provided and additional special touches were much appreciated. They were both great, really friendly and put us at ease. We had 3 hours booked and we got the full time, everything excellent. Highly recommended. Thank you

Alquilamos una excursión para ver cetáceos y dar un paseo de 3h. En general la experiencia estuvo bien. Toda la gestión de reserva fue fácil y el trato con Bananapalmbay fue un gusto.
Al llegar al barco tuvimos alguna confusión con lo acordado, pero tras comunicarse la empresa del barco con Bananapalmbay se solucionó y pudimos disfrutar del viaje. Además vimos ballenas piloto.

My partner and I rented a boat for 4 hours from Jan Daniel and we had the best day! By far our favourite experience of our whole holiday. We would definitely recommend to anyone looking to rent a boat to do your own exploring along the southern coast of Tenerife. 5* experience!

Ich habe mit dieser Gesellschaft 2 tolle Touren gemacht. Die Teide Nationalpark Tour mit Masca, war klasse, sowohl Guide als auch Busfahrer waren toll. Viel information und gute Betreuung. Ein unvergesslicher Tag. 🥰 Die 2. Tour war Oberklasse, ich bin mit Shogun zur Wahlbeobachtung rausgefahren und wir haben eine ganze Familie Pilotwale gesehen, diese wunderbaren Wesen sind recht neugierig und kamen auch auf das Boot zu. Ich habe Shogun vorgezogen, weil mir die übervollen Katamarane nicht so gefallen. Gute Wahl. Die ganze Fahrt ist wunderbar, man fährt bis Los Gigantes und in der Bucht gibt es eine köstliche Mahlzeit. Es ist sehr beeindruckend, dort zu ankern. Habe die Fahrt sehr genossen.......ich liebe das Meer sehr.🥰

What a fantastic day on our own private yacht. We went for the Astondoa 46 and the service was amazing. We saw sea turtles, dolphins and whales. Quick stop by a beach for a snorkel with the fishes and then back to drinking cava! Jan was great with the communication and made everything stress free. 100% would recommend to anyone planning something a little bit special.
