Pick your style of day at sea
Below are three distinct ways guests staying in Playa de las Americas like to use their time. Each is flexible—your exact route depends on the day’s sea conditions.
1) License-free taster (2–3 hours)
Ideal for first-timers who want an unhurried swim and a relaxed coastal potter near town. Our licence-free boats (Dipol First “Churri I”, Moonday 480SD “Churry Moon”) are designed to be easy to handle, and your handover covers everything you need before leaving the pier.
2) Family half-day (4–6 hours)
With more time you can mix two swim stops, a slow lunch on board and a scenic cruise along Costa Adeje. Step up to a licensed day boat like the Bayliner E18 “Happy Boat” for more space and pace, provided an appropriate permit is held. Prefer to relax? Book with a skipper.
3) Celebration cruise (full day or sunset)
Mark a birthday, engagement or reunion with a comfortable, faster boat—Quicksilver Activ 755 “Moni Boat” or the SeaRay 270 SDX “Fortune”—and tailor the plan around the group. Skippered options available; licensing requirements apply for self-drive.

First-time boaters: a confidence-building plan from Playa de las Americas
Starting near Playa de las Americas keeps things simple for newcomers. You meet at Puerto Colon, a leisure marina set up for straightforward arrivals, and your booking confirmation includes exact directions and a pier number so there is no guesswork at the gate.
Before you set off, you receive a practical handover focused on what you will actually use on the water. If you have chosen a licence-free boat, the controls are intentionally straightforward: throttle, steering, safety gear locations and a few local guidance points for calm, close-to-shore water. The aim is clarity, not complexity.
Once comfortable, ease out of the marina and settle into a gentle coastal potter with time for one or two relaxed swim stops. Keep the plan unhurried: short outings are perfect for first experiences, photos and a quick dip before heading back refreshed.
If you would prefer extra reassurance, book with a skipper. Treat it like a private mini-tour where someone else handles the helm while you ask questions and learn at your own pace. Either way, Playa de las Americas Boat Hiremakes your first time feel simple, safe and enjoyable from start to finish.
Skippered privacy vs self-drive freedom: choosing what suits you
Both styles deliver a private experience, but they feel different on board. Self-drive puts you in control of pace, playlist and swim stops. After a clear briefing, you decide when to anchor and how long to stay, following local guidance for comfort and safety.
Skippered time trades hands-on control for ease and local knowledge. A professional at the helm watches the conditions, suggests sheltered anchorages and keeps the boat positioned while you swim or relax on deck. It is an excellent fit for mixed-confidence groups, special occasions or anyone who simply wants to focus on company and views.
Your choice can also reflect timing. Short licence-free sessions are great for a quick reset from Playa de las Americas; half-day or full-day outings with a skipper work well when you want a smoother rhythm with minimal decision-making.
Whichever route you take, the process is consistent. You meet at Puerto Colon, receive a concise handover and leave with a plan that suits your group. Support remains a call away throughout, so you can enjoy the water knowing practical help is close if you want a steer.
