The paddle cuts a steady rhythm as the cliff of Guaza rises to your right and the open sea opens to the west, the water pushing you toward a shallow line where dolphins often ride the bow and turtles surface like quiet punctuation marks.

History
Southern Tenerife’s coast was shaped by successive volcanic eruptions; small fishing hamlets developed along these sheltered coves and modern guides still tell stories of old fishing routes.
Conservation
This coastline benefits from local marine awareness—use reef-safe products, maintain distance from wildlife, and follow guide instructions to reduce disturbance to animals and habitats.
