Tour Turtle and Snorkel di Tenerife da Costa Adeje

Very poor day. You are taken on a dinghy and sat precariously on the inflated sides. Not particularly safe. No life vests. Seems that details are deliberately missed from pre tour information. We were told to arrive 20 minutes early yet left about 50 minutes late and arrived back on time. We had about 1h 45m max on tour. No explanation or apology. The kit wasn't brilliant. My mates mask would not seal and they blamed his beard. My fin repeatedly came undone. We saw a dolphin and a turtle briefly on the way out but we nearly ran one over on the way back when they didn't slow down for us to see. The water was not 'crystalline' and whilst we saw plenty of fish, it was ordinary and generally too deep for good snorkeling visibility. Not a hint of a turtle. We were denied taking bags on board except suncream, hat and sunglasses. They failed to even provide a cup of water despite promising before and on board. Of great concern was a comment from our guide about an incoming storm tomorrow, that whilst others cancel, they go regardless even in a tsunami. This felt like a cash cow rather than a pleasure trip. Displeasure trip.

This is a scam, don’t bother…! Definitely not what is advertised and if you think you’re going to see any marine life think again

Friendly instructors, we had a nice experience. We went to the location at full speed in a rubber speedboat. When I lost my cap we even turned around to pick it up, very sweet. Unfortunately we didn't see any turtles this time, but the instructor did turn up a sea urchin for us! The instructors have an underwater camera for photos, you can buy it for 30 euros afterwards.

We had a great experience, although we just saw a turtle from the boat back to port, we all enjoyed this activity and the staff were very friendly and helpful and took some really good pictures and sent them to us the next day. Would definitely recommend 👌 ❤️

The tour itself was fully ok, there was plenty of time for snorkeling, unfortunately there was no Turtle... initially a longer Waiting time until wetsuits of the 8 tour participants were adapted and the last group participants were there. Bags and own mobile phones had to stay on land so that no one could take their own photos. Boat trip to the snorkeling site was great - with speed over high waves. A lot of dolphins sighted on the way, but we couldn't take our own photos. During the actual snorkeling, smaller fish were seen on a cliff. The crew also took underwater photos so far. In the end, you could have purchased the photos, could have been ok, but you should buy the complete photo series for 40 euros, even if I only found myself in 3 out of 20 photos. What concern do the 7 other wild strangers from the snorkeling group (1×German, 3×Irish and 4×Ukraine)... It was not possible to make a selection... Too bad, so I can't share my experiences figuratively. Overall conclusion: The tour was fully ok, you could do good and sufficient snorkeling. The guides were always helpful and explained everything to the snorkeling beginners and also took into consideration bad swimmers. Insofar as there were also cases of seasickness, the guides took care of it and also inquired after the end of the tour about its condition. What bothered and annoyed was the money tailoring at the end of the event on land while pandering to the photos. Well, at least nobody can take my memory away!

The water was a bit restless, quite a few waves. Nevertheless, the team of Dave, Alex and Andreas gave us a nice morning! Very nice guidance! The dolphins made themselves heard nearby, the turtles were still a bit shy, but there was still plenty to see. Highly recommended!

Went snorkeling in the ocean and saw lots of tropical fish and an octopus! It was my first time wearing a wetsuit and it was so much fun.

Great introduction to PADI. Our instructor Marta was very professional and also made us both feel at ease. We saw rays and small barracuda + other small species. Would definitely recommend booking this course if you’ve never tried before

Wow what can I say. This trip was the highlight of our holiday! All staff members inside the dive centre were so happy and friendly. My sister and I, got a very detailed introduction (being new to snorkelling) and then met our wonderful guide Romana. She was the loveliest lady we have ever met and made our whole experience so calm and fun!! She made sure that all our equipment fit and when in the water guided us to amazing spots to see all kinds of fish. Every so often Romana would check that we were ok. Unfortunately we didn’t see any turtles, however this didn’t matter to us as the whole experience was INCREDIBLE. Just want to say a massive thank you to Romana for being an incredible human being and all of the other wonderful people at the dive centre. We will definitely be returning when we are next on the Island and will be trying scuba diving😍 Thank you again!

Sadly we didn’t see any turtles. Plenty of fish and an overall pleasant snorkeling experience. Our Dutch guide was fantastic. He was witty, knowledgeable and easy going, but still professional, especially with the safety demonstrations. Highly recommend, and hopefully you’ll have more luck seeing those elusive turtles.
