Coover Canarias Catamaran: 3-Hour Costa Adeje Sail on the Kalima Kat with Snorkelling, Snacks and Drinks
Quick answer
The Coover Canarias catamaran costs from $51 (about €45) for 3 hours from Puerto Colón, with a swim and snorkel stop, snacks and drinks.
I'd book it for a quiet small-group sail rather than a party; it rates 4.4/5 from 342 reviews on GetYourGuide, and you arrive 20 minutes early.

The Coover Canarias catamaran is a 3-hour shared sail on the Kalima Kat along the Costa Adeje coast, run by Coover Canarias, Sociedad Limitada, from Puerto Colón marina. It costs $51 per person, about €45 at the 2026-10-16 rate, and includes a swim and snorkel stop, snacks, beer, soft drinks and water.
The detail that changes the decision is the atmosphere. The reviews describe a small, calm group and one reviewer picked it on purpose to avoid crowded party boats, so it fits people who want sea, dolphins and a swim more than music. It also rates lower than the sunset and snorkel options on this site, at 4.4/5, mostly on the value score.

What is the Coover Canarias catamaran tour and what do you see?
The Coover Canarias catamaran is a relaxed coastal cruise with one swim stop, and the sights are the Adeje shoreline, Teide in the distance and whatever wildlife shows up.
The listing says you may spot whales and dolphins, and it names Fañabé and Torviscas beaches along the route. Reviewers report dolphins and turtles, and two of them mention a shark at the surface, which is a rare bonus rather than a feature. I would plan on the coastline and a swim, and count the animals as luck.
- Coast: beaches of Fañabé and Torviscas from the water, with Mount Teide visible behind them.
- Swim stop: a sheltered spot off Veril beach, with snorkel gear provided.
- Wildlife: dolphins and turtles in several reviews, whales listed as possible.
- Deck: a solarium for sunbathing and a calm, small-group feel.
The listing gives no stop timings, so the minutes in the water are your question for the crew; GetYourGuide's summary of recent reviews would like more detail on how the snorkel session works and how long it lasts.
Where does the Coover Canarias catamaran leave from?
It leaves from Puerto Colón marina in Costa Adeje, and the listing wants you aboard 20 minutes ahead of departure because the boat leaves at the booked time.
The pin in the listing is at the Coover Canarias meeting point, inside the marina at Puerto Colón. The marina sits in Costa Adeje, so hotels in Adeje and Playa de las Américas are a short ride away. The listing also asks you to bring your passport, although the listing does not say why.
The includes list says "pickup and drop-off", but the meeting-point text only talks about arriving at the marina. I'd treat the transfer as unconfirmed and ask the operator before you rely on it.
What is the route and what are the stops?
The route is a loop along the Adeje coast out of Puerto Colón, with one anchorage at a cove by Veril beach where everyone swims and snorkels.
- Board at Puerto Colón: turn up 20 minutes early and show your passport if asked.
- Sail along the coast: the captain and deckhand take the catamaran past Fañabé and Torviscas, with whales and dolphins possible.
- Cove stop: the boat anchors off Veril beach for snacks, drinks, swimming and snorkelling.
- Return: the catamaran heads back to the marina with views of Teide behind the beaches.
The listing does not publish exact turn-around points, so I cannot give distances or minutes for each leg. Ask the crew how long the swim lasts when you board.
What is on board and what is included?
The price covers the captain and deckhand, snacks, beer, soft drinks, water, snorkel gear and a solarium, and reviewers describe the snack as a real brunch.
| Item | Status | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Captain, deckhand, crew | Included | Described as professional |
| Snacks | Included | Reviewers mention tortilla, paella-style rice and bread |
| Beer, soft drinks, water | Included | Reviewers say drinks were plentiful |
| Snorkel equipment | Included | One reviewer calls it excellent |
| Swim and snorkel stop | Included | At a cove off Veril beach |
| Solarium | Included | Sun deck on the catamaran |
| Pickup and drop-off | Unconfirmed | In the includes list but not in the meeting-point text |
| Towel, sunscreen | Bring your own | Not listed as supplied |
The listing does not mention a toilet, shade over the main deck or the boat's capacity. I would ask the operator about the toilet if you travel with children.
How does the Coover Canarias catamaran compare with other Tenerife boats?
It is the cheapest 3-hour catamaran with a swim stop on this site, and it sits between the cheap whale-watching safaris and the sunset trip with an open bar.
| Tour | Price | Duration | Rating | What sets it apart |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coover Canarias catamaran (this page) | $51 | 3 hours | 4.4/5 (342) | Small group, snorkel stop, snacks |
| Monte Cristo sunset catamaran | $72 | 3 hours | 4.7/5 (969) | Sunset, transfer, open bar |
| Eden Catamaran whale watching | $39 | 2 to 3 hours | 4.7/5 (4,247) | Whale and dolphin focus |
| Snorkel Excursions Abades | $42 | 2 hours | 4.9/5 (744) | Shore snorkel, no boat |
If wildlife is the point, the whale-focused boats in my whale watching in Tenerife list make more sense. If you want a nicer sunset drink, pick the Monte Cristo trip. If you want a sail, a swim and a quiet deck, this is my choice of the three.
Is a Costa Adeje catamaran tour worth it against a party boat or a sunset sail?
For a calm day on the water, I'd say yes: $51 gives 3 hours with a swim stop and drinks, which beats the $101 party boat on price and the $72 sunset sail on cost.
The reviewers describe the group as small and the crew as knowledgeable, and one says they liked being away from crowded party boats. The lower 4.4/5 rating suggests some people expected more; the value score is 4.4, which I read as a sign the price-to-time ratio is not always clear to them.
Against a party boat, you give up music and a long bar. Against a daytime whale watch, you get a swim and snorkelling but less time on the whale search. For families with older children it is a fair middle option.
When is the best time to go?
June to October is the best window: Open-Meteo recorded no day of 1 mm or more rain, the sea averaged 21.9 to 24.2°C and the highest daily waves stayed between 1.05 and 1.28 m.
Winter is milder than most of Europe, with highs of 21.5 to 21.6°C, but March has the highest daily waves at 1.79 m, so a swim stop can be skipped when the sea is up. UV data is not available from the free API, so bring sunscreen and cover up on the solarium at midday.
| Month | Avg high | Rain days | Sea temp | Highest daily wave |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jan | 21.5°C | 2 | 20.6°C | 1.49 m |
| Feb | 21.5°C | 0 | 20.2°C | 1.5 m |
| Mar | 21.5°C | 5 | 20.2°C | 1.79 m |
| Apr | 22.1°C | 4 | 20.2°C | 1.54 m |
| May | 23.4°C | 3 | 21.2°C | 1.21 m |
| Jun | 24.9°C | 0 | 21.9°C | 1.17 m |
| Jul | 26.4°C | 0 | 23.0°C | 1.25 m |
| Aug | 28.1°C | 0 | 24.0°C | 1.28 m |
| Sep | 27.8°C | 0 | 24.2°C | 1.25 m |
| Oct | 25.7°C | 0 | 24.1°C | 1.05 m |
| Nov | 24.7°C | 2 | 23.0°C | 1.35 m |
| Dec | 21.6°C | 1 | 21.5°C | 1.71 m |
7.56 million tourists entered Tenerife in 2025, up 2.4% on 2024, so small-group catamarans fill on dry days.
Public holidays from the Nager.Date API fall on 6 December, 8 December and 25 December. The Spanish weather service AEMET issues coastal warnings. For context on what lives offshore, the Spanish ministry's sheet for the Teno-Rasca marine site lists bottlenose dolphins, green turtles and loggerhead turtles: MITECO's Teno-Rasca sheet.
What do passengers say?
Passengers praise the friendly crew, plentiful drinks, a relaxed small group and frequent dolphin and turtle sightings, and the main gap is detail on the snorkel stop.
- Group size: several reviewers say it felt small and uncrowded.
- Wildlife: dolphins and turtles are mentioned often, and two reviewers report a shark.
- Food and drink: a brunch-style snack, with water, soft drinks and beer.
- Crew: described as friendly, knowledgeable and patient.
- Information: the platform's summary wants more detail on how the snorkel session works and how long it lasts.
All 10 reviews I could read are five stars, so that sample is positive-only. The 4.4/5 rating rests on 342 reviews, which means more mixed experiences exist than the first page shows.
Who should skip it?
Skip this catamaran if you use a wheelchair, want a party, need a guaranteed whale encounter or want a long time in the water.
- Wheelchair users: the listing marks the tour as not suitable.
- Party seekers: choose the party boat in Tenerife options instead.
- Serious snorkellers: the stop is one cove, and the minutes are not stated; the shore snorkel at Abades has a 50-minute guided swim.
- Pickup seekers: a transfer is not confirmed, so check first.
If this is not the right fit, the Tenerife boat tours hub has the others.
