La Caleta is the ideal spot to rent a kayak and sail to three beautiful hidden coves in the south of Tenerife: Playa Morteros, Playa Hernandez and El Puertito.

Tips for kayaking in La Caleta

Never been in a kayak before? Don’t worry, it’s very easy to handle and in a matter of minutes you’ll know how to do it.

Of course, it is essential to know how to swim in case you fall into the water at some point.

We leave you with some tips for kayaking in La Caleta:

1. Test in calm water

La Caleta is a place where the sea is calm, so it is a perfect place to make small kayak handling tests before going out to the open sea.

We recommend that you spend a few minutes testing the kayak near the coast, either alone in a single kayak or accompanied in a double kayak.

2. Know where the points of interest are located.

If you want to see the beaches of Los Morteros and Diego Hernandez or go to El Puertito, do not hesitate to ask us and we will give you all the indications before you start sailing.

If you prefer, you can also take a look at Google Maps to find your way around.

3. Bring water and some food

We recommend that you bring some water and food for the route to keep you hydrated and energetic.

A bottle of water and some fruit or nuts will come in handy.

4. Sailing tips

  • Adopt a comfortable position by bending your knees slightly and placing them on the sides of the kayak for stability and power in your strokes.
  • Hold the paddle as if it were the handlebars of a bicycle, firm but relaxed, without being too tight.
  • To paddle correctly, bring the paddle blade close to the height of your feet and pull it backwards until it is out of the water. If you want to row backwards, do the same movement but in the opposite direction.
  • To turn left, paddle to the right; and to turn right, paddle to the left.
  • To stop the kayak, place your paddle firmly in the water and hold it there to slow the boat to a complete stop.

Now we are! Shall we go to the water?
