Snorkelling from a boat

Going by boat takes you to coves and reefs you can't reach from land, with clearer water and more marine life. Many trips include mask, snorkel and fins, and a guide who explains what you can see.

Snorkelling needs no qualification or experience: being able to swim is enough. It is ideal for families with children.

Snorkelling tips

Use reef-safe sun cream or a rash vest, don't touch or stand on seagrass or wildlife, and stay close to the group and the boat.

Operators in Tenerife know the best spots for each day's wind; ask when booking.

Do I need experience to snorkel?

No, you just need to be able to swim. Guides explain how to use the gear and there are buoyancy vests for anyone who feels unsure.

What is the difference between snorkelling and scuba diving?

Snorkelling means swimming at the surface with a mask and snorkel; scuba diving means breathing underwater from a tank and requires training or a try-dive with an instructor.
