Whale watching in Puerto Colón, quad sunsets on Mount Teide, snorkeling, jet skiing and much more. We only organize the experiences we know firsthand, guide by guide, captain by captain.
From the open ocean to the summit of Teide: ways to experience Tenerife, each one personally tested by our team.
No polished stock photos: real videos from the experiences, filmed by the people who live them every day.
Pilot whales and dolphins in open water: the channel between Tenerife and La Gomera never disappoints.
Paddling into hidden coves, then straight into the water. This is how you actually see the coastline.
Full throttle across the South coast at sunset, with pure adrenaline and zero experience required.
Above the clouds, under one of the clearest skies in the world. Teide by night is a different planet.
Top down, engine growling, Teide's volcanic roads at golden hour. This is how road trips should feel.
Our best seller for a reason: riding a quad above the clouds as the sun drops behind Teide.
First wave, first stand-up, first big smile. Everyone starts here, on the beaches of the South.
Your own boat on the Atlantic: just you, your crew and the open sea.
Voted best zoo in the world two years running, and yes, the red pandas are just as cute in person.
The world's #1 water park, right here in the South. The Tower of Power is not for the faint of heart.
Set sail on an authentic viking ship past whales, dolphins and the Los Gigantes cliffs.
Rise above Tenerife and see the coast, cliffs and the Teide volcano from the sky.
The most original boat in Tenerife: vintage Italian style cruising the coast from Puerto Colón.
Your bookings, routes and pickup times always on hand, even where mobile signal doesn't reach, like the summit of Teide.
The full app in one file: it keeps working offline, so it's still there on a boat or above the clouds at Teide.
Free, direct download (110MB). Android will ask you to allow installs from this source the first time, that's expected.
Add Makà to your Home Screen in a few taps, no App Store, no download. Then turn on notifications to get discounts, promotions and new experiences first.
We collaborate with the most iconic attractions on the island to offer you world-class experiences.
Our activity began in 2024 in Playa de las Américas, when one of our two founders started a local excursion agency under a different name. In 2026 that agency was renamed Makà Experiences Tenerife, the project you are reading now. Our connection with the Canary Islands runs much deeper than that. We've lived and explored this island for years, long enough to understand where the southern volcanic gorges hold their silence at dawn, where the open Atlantic reveals its most authentic marine life, and how Teide's silhouette changes with the light of every season. Everything we recommend comes from that day-to-day experience on the island.
We are not a simple algorithmic aggregator of commercial activities online. Our network is built on direct knowledge of the professionals who operate at the island's key points:
Tenerife can simply be the backdrop for a holiday photo, or it can become something deeper. Choosing excursions in Tenerife with Makà means gaining an unfiltered perspective, planned by people who truly live and know the island.
