Operated by Gavin Glen Fishing · Costa Adeje, Santa Cruz de Tenerife
Off the coast of Costa Adeje, Tenerife’s waters are a playground for serious anglers and adventure seekers alike. Gavin Glen Fishing offers a precision-driven, shared fishing trip that takes guests into the deep blue aboard a cutting-edge 25-foot sportfishing vessel. Leaving from Puerto Colon, a bustling marina on Tenerife’s southwest shoreline, the trip covers roughly four hours of offshore fishing aimed at landing powerful species like Marlin, Tuna, Barracuda, and Amberjack.
Tenerife, the largest of Spain’s Canary Islands, is famed for its volcanic origins and diverse marine ecosystem shaped by rich Atlantic currents. The waters around Puerto Colon hold a unique blend of warm subtropical conditions and nutrient-rich upwellings that attract valuable game fish year-round. This combination makes the area a distinguished destination on Europe’s big-game fishing map.
What sets Gavin Glen Fishing apart is its blend of speed, expertise, and high-end equipment. Their sportfishing boat cuts through the Atlantic at speeds up to 22 knots, allowing guests to cover prime fishing grounds efficiently. The fully outfitted vessel includes a fighting chair, outriggers, downriggers, a live bait tank, and a wireless trolling engine—tools that turn a good day on the water into a memorable catch. Each trip runs with a maximum of six anglers, ensuring focused attention from the captain and personalized technique coaching tailored to the target species.
Whether you’re a seasoned fisherman chasing Marlin or a newcomer eager to test the thrill of offshore fishing, this shared trip balances skill-building, excitement, and the chance to connect with Tenerife’s rugged marine life. Departing from Puerto Colon, Gavin Glen Fishing leverages local knowledge and cutting-edge gear to provide an experience that’s hard to match in the Canary Islands. This trip places you in the heart of an aquatic ecosystem that’s as wild as it is accessible.
