Fast Boat Trip, Los Gigantes TenerifeMasca Bay Swim Stop

Fast boat tour from Los Cristianos to Los Gigantes

This fast boat tour is the only Los Gigantes trip that leaves directly from the Port of Los Cristianos, on a modern 32-seat motorboat. Over about 3 hours you cruise Tenerife's southwest coast to the Cliffs of Los Gigantes, which rise more than 600 metres from the Atlantic, then stop to swim at Masca Bay before heading back. Departures are at 10:00 on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

What to expect on board

The boat is built for smooth, comfortable navigation and seats up to 32 passengers. As you head along the coastline you pass volcanic landscapes and clear water on the way to the towering Los Gigantes cliffs. A local guide, who speaks Spanish and English, shares stories about Tenerife's south coast during the trip.

The Masca Bay swim stop

Partway through the tour the boat anchors at Masca Bay, a sheltered cove ringed by cliffs and turquoise water. You can swim, snorkel, or stay on board and relax. Snorkelling gear is not included, but you can rent it on board for €15 per person.

What is included

The price covers the 3-hour boat tour, seating for up to 32 people, and a sandwich and bottled water (vegetarian options on request). Accident and third-party liability insurance and full safety equipment are provided on board. That is the operator's cover for the vessel, not personal travel or medical insurance, so bring your own policy. Hotel pick-up and drop-off are not included, though an optional transfer can be arranged at extra cost.

Booking and cancellation

Book online to secure your seats instantly. The boat holds a limited number of passengers and fills up quickly, so booking ahead is sensible. You can cancel free up to 48 hours before departure for a full refund. Cancellations made later than that are non-refundable. If weather or sea conditions make the trip unsafe, you can rebook for a new date or take a full refund.
