From the open ocean to the summit of Teide: ways to experience Tenerife, each one personally tested by our team.
We collaborate with the most iconic attractions on the island to offer you world-class experiences.
We've been operating as a specialised agency in Playa de las Américas since 2024, but our connection with the Canary Islands runs much deeper. 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. In 2026, this field knowledge evolved into a structured project: Makà Experiences Tenerife.
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.
We're not just a website: stop by, grab a coffee and book your next adventure in person.
"The whale watching trip was absolutely magical. We saw three pilot whales and dozens of dolphins. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable. Hands down the best experience in Tenerife."
"We booked the Teide Sunset Quad and the catamaran tour — both were outstanding. Makà organises everything flawlessly, pick-up included, zero worries. Will definitely book again!"
"It was an incredible experience! The Teide Sunset Quad was spectacular, the volcano at sunset is something we will never forget. The guides are fantastic. Highly recommended."
Tenerife reached 7.38 million visitors in 2024 — more than the entire island of Sardinia in twelve months. The majority were British (over 40%), followed by Germans and Spaniards. And almost all of them end up in the south of the island, between Playa de Las Americas and Costa Adeje. Which is exactly where we operate.
We've been working here since Makà opened in 2024, and the question our clients ask us most often at the end of an excursion is always the same: "Why didn't you tell us this before?" So we're trying to do exactly that now.
Northern Tenerife is green, humid, full of laurisilva forests and villages that seem from another century. The south is arid and sunny almost year-round. This isn't geographical luck — it's the same trade winds that create Teide's sea of clouds that carry moisture to the north face and leave the south dry. Mass tourism developed here from 1986 precisely for this reason. Sun in the south is almost guaranteed even in winter.
They're adjacent — you can walk from one to the other — but the atmosphere is completely different. Adeje is the quiet side: luxury hotels, Playa del Duque, slow pace, families. Las Americas is the lively side: nightlife, beginner surfing, bars, clubs. Many guests book without knowing the distinction and figure it out on day one. If you're unsure which area suits you, send us a message — we'll tell you in ten minutes.
Siam Park is the most award-winning water park in Europe, and we don't say that for commercial reasons — we recommend it because it genuinely works for every type of visitor. Half a day there and half a day at sea, either on the catamaran for whale watching or kayaking toward Los Gigantes, is already a solid holiday even if you do nothing else.
Los Gigantes deserves a separate mention: cliffs that drop vertically 300 to 600 metres directly into the sea. Seen from the water, by kayak or boat, they have a scale that photographs simply don't convey. For snorkelling, the seabed around El Puertito and Punta de la Rasca hosts resident sea turtles with excellent visibility in summer.
And then there's Teide, which has its own article. In brief: anyone who comes to Tenerife and doesn't go up at least once has seen the cover of the book without opening it.
Mass tourism has transformed a great deal of this part of the island. Some areas are almost unrecognisable compared to twenty years ago. But there are still corners — a small cove out of season, a ravine at dawn, the sea at six in the morning before the boats arrive — where you understand why Tenerife is the kind of place people don't visit just once.

Sea
We leave from Puerto Colón with one certainty: the whales in the channel between Tenerife and La Gomera are not passing through. They live here.
Adventure
2,200m altitude, a sea of clouds below you and the sun setting over the Atlantic. The optical phenomenon few can explain.
Tenerife
What really sets Costa Adeje apart from Playa de Las Americas, and why the sunshine in the south is no coincidence.
Food
Forget the tourist menu: in Tenerife's guachinches, the family-run taverns pouring their own homemade wine, six dishes always make it to the table. Here's what they are, and why.
Cancellations made less than 48 hours before the start of the activity will incur a 50% penalty on the total amount, in accordance with Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007.
No-shows at the pickup point will result in a 100% loss of the booking amount.
If the organising company cancels or substantially modifies the excursion due to adverse weather or force majeure, the client is entitled to an alternative activity or a full refund.
