Sail along the Papagayo beaches on a catamaran leaving from Puerto del Carmen. Four hours following the south coast of Lanzarote, with an anchoring stop to swim and paddle a kayak, a welcome mojito, paella cooked on board and an open bar.

✨ Experience description

The catamaran casts off from the quay in Puerto del Carmen and heads south. As soon as you are out they greet you with a mojito and a tapa of papas arrugadas with mojo, and from there the plan is simple: deck, sun and the coast slipping slowly past.

The crossing follows the Papagayo beaches, that group of pale-sand coves protected by the Los Ajaches natural monument. The boat anchors in an area close to Punta de Papagayo and that is where the clock stops: clear water to swim in and kayaks for a paddle.

Meanwhile lunch is prepared on board, paella or pasta with papas arrugadas with mojo and fresh fruit, with an open bar of beer, sangría, water and soft drinks. The guide is with you in your language throughout the trip.

We came to Tenerife with two easily bored 15-year-olds, so finding the right activities was really important! Elliot was absolutely amazing. He knew exactly which excursions to recommend and even called ahead to make sure they could accommodate our timelines. Even when we made last-minute changes, he was incredibly helpful and accommodating. He also recommended some fantastic restaurants and gave us great tips for Siam Park. All in all, Elliot made the whole experience completely effortless and stress-free. His knowledge, organisation and helpfulness were second to none. I would highly recommend his services. 10/10!

Una experiencia de 10/10 🚤☀️ Alquilamos el barco durante nuestras vacaciones en Tenerife y no pudimos quedar más encantados! El barco era precioso, estaba como nuevo y muy moderno. Pero, sin duda, lo mejor fue el trato recibido: súper atentos, amables y profesionales, tanto de Vanesa, como Marco,Fernando y Juan . Pasamos un día increíble, con unas vistas espectaculares. Sin duda, repetiríamos y lo recomendamos al 100 %.

Ideal el paseo en velero, en grupo reducido. Con calma y la tranquilidad canaria, hemos podido disfrutar de los calderones tropicales e incluso escucharlos y a la vuelta una tortuga nos obsequió con el regalo del día! Gracias Félix, el capitán y a Emocionate!
