The Los Gigantes cliffs are stunning, and what better way to enjoy the view from the comfort of your very own sea kayak?
Nothing quite beats the feeling of being out on the ocean in a kayak with an amazing backdrop, taking it all in.

2. Explore Puerto Colon Harbour on a catamaran whale-watching adventure
Shore experience: Catamaran adventure & whale watching
Sit back and relax whilst you enjoy a catamaran journey around the Puerto Colon Harbour.
Close by along the route is a popular area for spotting pilot whales and dolphins in the open ocean, so if you keep your eyes open you might get lucky with a spotting.
During the trip, you also have a chance to go for a swim in the sea from the catamaran, which is a great opportunity to try open sea swimming.
The Catamaran trip also includes a local lunch and beverage. On our voyage, we enjoyed a fantastic paella dish.

For one of the best hikes in Tenerife, you have to head out around the coastal hiking trail of San Pedro.
The views along the way are spectacular and well worth all the walking.
It’s a great way to explore part of the island’s long coastline.
This was a wonderful way to explore a large section of Tenerife’s stunning scenic coastline.

Also, check out the Valley de Ucanca viewpoint where you’re a short walk from the incredible rock formations.
I could have spent hours hiking around this incredible collection of rock formations caused by volcanic activity on the island.
It almost feels like you’re walking around the surface of Mars, like a Martian.
It’s a truly spectacular experience to discover this unique landscape — I would happily go again.
6. Go out on a jet ski watersports adventure
Shore experience: Jet ski safari & beach time.
Heading out to the open sea on a jet ski was a super fun watersports activity to try in Tenerife.
After a safety briefing and a walk-through on how to operate the jet ski, you hop on a boat and head out to the jet ski course located close by to the coastal beach where you are assigned your jet ski.
You can go out on the jet ski as a duo if you prefer to buddy up with someone to handle the helm.
Then you can go as fast as you like around the course and have a fantastic time! This was an exciting water adventure activity to try, and I would highly recommend trying it for yourself if you haven’t already.
