5 Sailing Trips with Lunch in Tenerife Worth Booking

1.Catamaran Cruise with Brunch and Unlimited Drinks

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 607 reviews · 3 - 4 hours · from $71Our pick

From Marina del Sur, cruise Tenerife’s south coast toward Punta Rasca and Diego Hernández Beach. Enjoy a Canarian brunch, unlimited beer, soft drinks, and water, then swim or snorkel while watching for whales, dolphins, turtles, and flying fish. English and Spanish commentary is included.

“Great day out on the catamaran. Saw pilot whales, turtles and flying fish. Booked a Balinese day bed which was fab. Food was good too. A great afternoon out with smooth transfers. Unlimited drinks is beer or soft drinks only. Wine and cocktails you need to pay for. Would have preferred a full size bottle of Cava than a mini moet champagne which only just gave us two small glasses between two as small bottle really meant for one person.”
