What you can book in Los Cristianos today

The catalog in the south of Tenerife starts on Los Cristianos beach with three two-hour trips: a kayak tour along beaches and cliffs towards Palm-Mar, with a good chance of seeing dolphins and turtles; the same route with thirty minutes of snorkelling at the best-known spot around; and stand-up paddle, either board hire or a lesson with an instructor.

On top of that there are two packs combining the kayak with a twenty-minute intro dive or with a tandem paragliding flight. You can do both in one day or split them over two.

Prices and who it suits

The kayak tour is 39 € for adults and 19.50 € for children aged 6 to 10; the kayak-and-snorkel one, 45 € and 22.50 €. Stand-up paddle is 25 € for two hours of board hire, or 60 € for a lesson with an instructor for one person and 85 € for two.

The packs are charged per person: 110 € for kayak and intro dive, 140 € for kayak and paragliding. It is all built for complete beginners: the guide stays with the group the whole time and helps you in and out of the kayak, with wetsuit and buoyancy aid included.

Getting there and when you are charged

The meeting point is Los Cristianos beach. If you are staying elsewhere in the south of the island there is hotel pickup for 2 € per person: you give your accommodation when booking and they confirm the exact time by email.

How it is confirmed depends on each listing, and it's marked before you pay: instant-booking activities send the QR pass as soon as you pay; those subject to confirmation only hold the amount and the centre confirms within 24 hours (if it doesn't, nothing is charged).

Where to stay in Los Cristianos

Los Cristianos is easy to get around on foot: the harbour, where the ferries to La Gomera leave from, the beach and the promenade are all together. Playa de las Américas starts right next door, and Tenerife South airport is about 20 minutes away by car.

Activitatum doesn't sell accommodation: this is only a guide to choosing an area.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need experience for the kayak or the dive?

Can I go with children?

Yes. Both kayak tours have a child rate for ages 6 to 10: 19.50 € against the adult 39 € on the dolphin and turtle tour, and 22.50 € against 45 € on the snorkelling one.

Is there hotel pickup?

Yes, from accommodation in the south of the island for 2 € per person: you give your hotel when booking and they confirm the exact pickup time by email. If you make your own way, the meeting point is Los Cristianos beach.
