A private charter means the whole boat, skipper and crew are just for your group. In south Tenerife you can choose between motor boats, catamarans and sailing yachts — and the right choice comes down to a few simple questions. Here they are, with our real prices.
How many of you are there?
Every boat is licensed for a fixed number of passengers. All our sailing yachts take up to 11 guests, children and babies included. For a couple or a family of four that means plenty of space; a group of ten still feels relaxed, because nobody else is on board.
What do you want to see?
If whales and dolphins are the goal, choose a yacht with a whale-watching licence. Our Mizendoha, Lina Siete and Madoudou hold the Barco Azul licence — see private whale watching.
If you mainly want the coast, swimming and snorkelling, a coastal charter on SkyLine 1 is the more affordable option. And for an evening on the water there is the private sunset cruise.
How long should you book?
Three hours is enough for whales or a swim stop. Four or five hours let you do both without rushing. Six or seven hours make a real day at sea, with more time at anchor in a quiet bay and simply sailing along the coast.
What a private charter costs
| Duration | Coastal (SkyLine 1) | Whales (Barco Azul) |
|---|---|---|
| 3 h | €215 | €399 |
| 4 h | €365 | €549 |
| 5 h | €515 | €699 |
| 6 h | €665 | €849 |
| 7 h | €815 | €999 |
Prices are for the whole yacht with skipper, up to 11 guests, with drinks, snacks and snorkel gear included. For a group of eight, three hours of whale watching works out at about €50 per person.
Sail or motor?
Motor boats are faster, but sailing yachts are quieter, use far less fuel and usually cost less per hour. For whale watching a quiet boat is a real advantage, and turning off the engine to sail along the coast is half the fun. Our skipper sails the boat, so you do not need any experience.
Accessibility and special occasions
If someone in your group uses a wheelchair, choose Mizendoha: it has a boarding ramp and an accessible toilet. Tell us when you book. For a birthday, an anniversary or a proposal, let us know in advance so we can plan the timing and route.
