Ride a jet ski along the Costa Adeje coastline with views of luxury resorts, wild cliffs, and the chance to spot dolphins from the water.
A jet ski tour from Costa Adeje delivers Tenerife's biggest adrenaline rush on the water. After a safety briefing at the base near Playa de Fañabé, you mount your powerful jet ski and follow your guide along the sun-drenched southern coastline, past the golden sands of Playa del Duque, the rocky headlands between resorts, and out into the open waters where dolphins frequently ride the wake of passing watercraft.
The guided route hugs the coast for approximately 20 km, reaching speeds of up to 100 km/h on straight stretches before slowing to explore sheltered coves and peer into sea caves. The contrast between the manicured resort shoreline and the wild, undeveloped clifftops further north creates a fascinating coastal journey that most visitors only glimpse from the beach.
No licence is required — jet skis are tandem vehicles operated by the guide or the participant after instruction. Solo riders must be 18+, while passengers can be younger when accompanied by an adult. This is Tenerife's most popular water sport activity, so advance booking is essential to secure your preferred time slot.
Jet skiing in Costa Adeje is the top-rated water adventure in Tenerife, offering a unique perspective on the island's coastline and an exhilarating ride that appeals to thrill-seekers of all levels. The warm water and calm conditions on the south-west coast make it accessible year-round, with summer months being the most popular.
Multiple operators along the Costa Adeje beachfront offer 1-hour and 2-hour guided tours. The longer options venture further north towards the Los Gigantes cliffs, providing a more adventurous route with additional wildlife-spotting opportunities.
