Don't miss the opportunity to experience first-hand all the charms of the coast of Tenerife, alternating moments of relaxation and discovery in a unique setting.
What we will do
Our boat will depart from Puerto Colon in Costa Adeje. The crew will meet us 20 minutes before departure to check the reservations and help us to board.
In the first few minutes of sailing, we will attend a brief talk about the safety rules of the boat. The ecological catamaran White Paradise is equipped with a solar panel system to ensure sustainable sailing. In addition, wind permitting, we will sail.
We will sail along the Teno-Rasca marine strip, recognised as a Special Area of Conservation (ZEC) , while we discover many interesting facts about the biodiversity of the area thanks to the entertaining explanations of the crew members.
During the tour we can feel the sea at our feet from the spacious bow solarium or relax on the terrace. In addition, we will enjoy moments to listen and watch whales and dolphins. The White Paradise has an underwater sound system and Bose speakers on deck and is certified Responsible Watching, awarded by the World Cetacean Alliance (WCA) .
We will have time to reach the spectacular cliffs of Los Gigantes, which, seen from the water, will appear imposing before us. We will then continue north to anchor in the quiet Masca Bay, where we can take a dip and snorkel. To replenish our strength, the crew will serve a meal of chicken with vegetables or pasta salad (depending on the season) , fruit and drinks.
We will sail along the west coast of the island again, this time towards the south, to return to Costa Adeje after a magnificent day of sailing.
The excursion will last 5 hours.
