Built for days like this.
Born and raised on Tenerife, Sebas has been sailing these waters since he was a boy. He holds every skipper licence and safety certification needed to keep you safe at sea, and knows the island's south coast like nobody else.
Mila brings years of hospitality experience from boats across Tenerife and Mallorca. From the moment you step aboard, she makes sure your drinks are topped up, your tapas arrive at just the right moment, and the mood is exactly right.
Not a boat tour. A day you'll tell stories about.
SailTenerife runs catamaran day tours for small groups from the south of Tenerife. We take a maximum of 12 guests per tour, so the boat never feels crowded and the crew has time for everyone.
We sail from Marina San Miguel on Tenerife's south coast aboard our Fountaine Pajot Isla 40 catamaran. We chose it because it is stable and has plenty of deck space. Whether you're joining a small group tour or booking a private charter, the same crew, the same catamaran, and the same attention to detail await.

How many guests are on each tour?
Small group tours are limited to a maximum of 12 guests. We keep groups small on purpose, so the deck never feels crowded. Private charters accommodate up to 12 guests as well. The Premium Escape is capped at 10 guests to maintain the highest level of service.
What catamaran do you use?
We sail a Fountaine Pajot Isla 40, a modern sailing catamaran. It is stable, has a large deck and is serviced regularly.
Can I book the entire catamaran privately?
Yes, all of our experiences are available as private charters. If you want the boat exclusively for your group, simply select the Private Charter option or contact us directly. The Premium Escape is always private by design.
What is the cancellation policy?
Full payment is due at the time of booking. Cancellations made more than 48 hours before departure receive a full refund. Cancellations made 24–48 hours before departure receive a 50% refund. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before departure are non-refundable.
Do you operate in bad weather?
Guest safety is our absolute priority. If weather conditions make sailing unsafe, we will contact you as early as possible to offer a reschedule to another available date, or a full refund. We never sail in conditions that compromise safety.
Is SailTenerife suitable for children?
Yes, we are very family-friendly. Children of all ages are welcome aboard when accompanied by a parent or guardian. We carry life jackets in all sizes. The catamaran's stability makes it a comfortable experience even for very young guests.
Will we see dolphins or whales?
This is not a dedicated whale- or dolphin-watching tour and we never guarantee sightings. But Tenerife's south coast waters are home to dolphins and whales, and it's not uncommon to spot them along the way. Any sighting is a bonus, never the plan.
Do you offer tours in Spanish?
Yes. Our crew, Skipper Sebas and Hostess Mila, speak English and Spanish fluently. Tours are conducted in the language that suits your group best.
How do I book?
You can book directly through the booking calendar on our website, or email us for custom requests, private charters or the Premium Escape.
