Los Cristianos Lava Reef Snorkeling at Rays Bay

Choose this activity if snorkeling itself is your priority and you do not need a kayak, boat ride or scuba component. Shore entry keeps the logistics simple and the price lower than multi-activity combinations, while the instructor and included equipment make it suitable for beginners and casual snorkelers.

Best for first-time and casual snorkelers, couples, friends and families who want a guided surface-water activity without kayaking or scuba diving. It is particularly convenient for travellers already based in Los Cristianos or nearby Playa de las Américas. Current live guiding is available in English and Spanish.

Choose a kayak-and-snorkeling combination if you also want a coastal paddle, a beginner scuba package if you want to go below the surface with breathing equipment, or a boat-snorkeling trip if the boat ride is part of the appeal. Transfers are not included, and the activity is not currently listed as wheelchair accessible.

Check in at Kayaking Tenerife Atlantis, Edificio Guayero 2 in Los Cristianos and present your mobile ticket.

The instructor gives a briefing and provides the included snorkel equipment and swimming float before you walk into the water at Rays Bay.

The full booking lasts about two hours. The current operator description allocates roughly 50 minutes to snorkeling in the water, with the remaining time used for check-in, preparation and briefing.

The volcanic reef can attract rays, schools of fish and other Atlantic marine life, but no species or encounter is guaranteed. After the guided water session, return to the meeting point independently.
