El personal es muy amable, pero tienes que llevarte tú el kayak a la playa y está a 100 metros, además el tiempo empieza a contar desde que pagas con lo que pierdes 20 min. hasta que empiezas a palear. Las vistas son increíbles, !ojo¡ No es lo mismo palear en mar abierto que en ríos o lagos
YADILA CHACÓN
Excelente en todos los sentidos…contacto, servicio, paisaje y el trato de los Guías!!!

Recomiendo las actividades al 100%. Hicimos la ruta de kayak y quedamos encantados, ya que los monitores son unos fenómenos. Te explican muchas cosas acerca de lo que nos rodea en la ruta, tanto de los acantilados como del fondo marino. Se nota que son personas que disfrutan y cuidan la naturaleza, y no los típicos que solo les interesa hacer negocio de una actividad. ¡Un placer compartir ese ratito con los monitores, sin duda, si volvemos a Tenerife repetiremos!
Raúl
Los monitores son muy cercanos y muy implicados con el ecosistema de la isla. En cuanto a la actividad cabe destacar que están muy pendientes de ti en cada momento

Iván nos explicó cómo llevar el kayak antes de comenzar además de muchas otras cositas bastante interesantes. Pudimos pasar un buen rato con cerveza y baño incluida. Además nos hizo muchas fotos.
Xavi Bel
Opción muy buena para ver los Gigantes desde el mar este verano. 2 horas de kayak acompañados de un equipo muy profesional que explican el lugar, curiosidades, hay muy buen rollo y encima nos hacen fotos! Sólo debemos encargarnos de disfrutar.

Tienen un equipo muy profesional y la organización es buena. Toda la información en su web. Escogimos la ruta en kayak por el acantilado. 2 horas de duración y hay unas vista espectacular. Muy recomendable.

La experiencia ha sido muy divertida. El monitor Roberto es muy majo y nos explica todo lo que queramos saber sobre los acantilados como las aves que lo habitan y se le nota mucho la pasión por la geografía canaria
