Boat charter to La Gomera
One of the less visited Canary Islands, sailing from Tenerife to La Gomera is an excellent way to experience this charming island. Characterised by a dramatic interior of valleys and peaks, and almost deserted sandy beaches, this doesn’t feel like the Canary Islands you know… Yes, there are hotels and restaurants, but there is less in the way of tourist saturation and a very authentic vibe to it all. With a boat rental from Tenerife, you can spend a few lazy days getting to know this beautiful and relatively untouched island.
Sailing around Gran Canaria
Set sail from Las Palmas in Gran Canaria to explore more of this beautiful island.

Lanzarote with a boat rental
Although many flock to Lanzarote for package holidays in the sun, discovering a whole other side to this beautiful island is easy with a yacht charter. Sailing in Lanzarote gives you the opportunity to discover hidden corners of the Canary Islands such as La Graciosa. This island just off the north coast of Lanzarote is the definition of a desert island, with hiking trails and beaches. Or discover the less developed northern coast of Lanzarote and the geothermal wonders of the Timanfaya National Park.
Sailing in Tenerife
As one of the most popular destinations in the Canary Islands, sailing in Tenerife gives you lots of options to explore. Discover the spectacular Rural de Anaga park in the north of the island, with jagged peaks and hidden beaches. Or hop along the southern coast, which is dotted with untouched bays with barely a soul in sight - including the incredible Los Gigantes cliffs. If you prefer some company, you’ll find thriving towns all along the Tenerife coast. And of course, you’ll very likely see the imposing Mount Teide from the deck of your Tenerife boat charter.
