Snorkeling from the beach
Snorkeling is one of the most popular ways to explore the wonders of the ocean. At Diving Atlantis in Los Cristianos, we invite you to join us in the famous Bay of Stingrays (Rays Bay) — right on our doorstep and recognized as one of the best marine sites in Tenerife!
Here, you will glide over beautiful volcanic underwater landscapes, swim through schools of colorful fish, and frequently encounter magnificent, huge ocean rays.
Snorkeling by boat
For snorkeling fans looking for an extra adventure, we offer a fantastic boat excursion to discover the rich marine life of the Atlantic Ocean at some of the absolute best snorkeling spots in Tenerife! We set off from the local harbors of Puerto Colón or Las Galletas, enjoying a scenic boat ride along Tenerife's beautiful coastline. We head to one of our favorite secluded sites, where you will jump straight into crystal-clear waters to spot diverse sea animals, turtles, and vibrant schools of fish. Stunning and curious volcanic rock formations on the seabed make swimming with a mask even more magical, giving you a front-row seat to the wonders of the ocean.
Good to Know: This boat trip is fully guided by our professional instructors, making it a safe, relaxing, and thrilling experience for families and groups of friends!

The Beach Tour (10:00, 12:30, 15:00): Departs right in front of our center into the famous Bay of Stingrays. It is highly relaxed, enters gradually from the beach, and is excellent for families and beginners.

We provide everything you need for a comfortable experience: a high-quality silicone mask, a dry-top snorkel (which helps prevent water from entering), comfortable fins, and a warm neoprene wetsuit. Full insurance and a professional guide are also included.
