Explore the Tenerife and La Gomera's natural wonders, swim with whales, walk in the oldest forest in Europe, explore culinary traditions, and taste famous volcanic wines
Embark on a 7-day sailing adventure in the Canary Islands. Explore the islands' natural wonders, marine life, culture, history, and culinary traditions.
Over thousands of years, legends of the Canary Islands have drawn explorers, philosophers, and dreamers to this Atlantic paradise. Once thought by the Greeks to be linked to Atlantis and by medieval Europeans as the "edge of the world," these volcanic islands have been a beacon for those seeking freedom or transformation. For some, they were the last sight before transatlantic voyages, while in the 1960s, they became a haven for communities escaping modern life.
Today, this journey takes you through some of the Canaries' most remote and awe-inspiring locations.
The Canary Islands are uniquely positioned between untouched nature and accessible civilization.
Northern Tenerife has vibrant cities, while western valleys remain secluded and wild. This experience offers a chance to connect deeply with the landscape, culture, and like-minded adventurers. You'll visit places only reachable by boat, immerse yourself in volcanic cliffs and pristine beaches, witness abundant marine life, and experience the islands' rich history and culinary heritage.
This journey centres on four key experiences:
Natural Wonders: Venture to boat-only sites like Los Organos on La Gomera and Playa de Masca on Tenerife, and hike ancient paths through Europe’s oldest forests and dramatic coastal cliffs.
Marine Life: Encounter whales, dolphins, and endemic bird species within three marine conservation areas, with opportunities for snorkeling among coral reefs.
Culture & History: Rather than focusing on dates and battles, gain insights into local life by visiting coastal villages, tasting traditional Canarian foods, and learning from residents about the islands' diverse heritage.
Culinary Tradition: Most of the evening, anchored under the stars, you’ll explore the flavours of the Canaries—from salt-boiled papas with mojo to world-famous local Malvasia wine.
This adventure is ideal for young travellers (18-39) and offers a safe, accessible introduction to sailing.
The winter months provide the perfect blend of mild weather, with 25°C temperatures, calm Atlantic trade winds, and thriving vegetation following November's rains.
