Teno Activo
Teno Activo is an outdoor activity company based at the Los Gigantes marina in Santiago del Teide. Its kayak and snorkel trips and its paddle surf outing set off from there beneath the Los Gigantes cliffs, rock walls rising almost 500 metres, alongside boat trips to watch whales and dolphins and sailing excursions. The company also runs night-time star walks in Teide National Park and electric mountain bike tours.
Teno Activo describes itself as an outdoor activity company that sets out to show the Canary Islands landscape away from typical sun-and-beach tourism. It is based on Poblado Marinero street, opposite pontoon 6 of the Los Gigantes marina in Santiago del Teide, and its kayak and snorkel routes leave from that harbour along the Los Gigantes cliffs, rock walls of almost 500 metres that shelter seabirds and endemic plants.
The programme includes an introductory paddle surf trip, a combined kayak and whale-watching boat outing, a boat trip with a swim in Masca bay and a sailing excursion along the southwest coast. Away from the sea, the company runs the Star Route in Teide National Park, at more than 2000 metres above sea level, and private electric mountain bike rides around the Chinyero volcano.
