Hiring a boat in Adeje
Adeje is the biggest boat rental base in the Canaries: 34 companies in Costa Adeje, most of them around Puerto Colón, which has its own page in the directory, with five jet-ski operators, three skippered hire, three advertising no-licence boats (one of them with more than 340 reviews) and two with motor yachts. It is the place on the island to take a motorboat out on your own: the coast between Costa Adeje and Los Cristianos, 4 km away with 8 more companies, has a calm sea all year and resident pilot whales offshore. Las Galletas, 12 km away, adds 11 companies and Los Gigantes, 20 km, 8.
You can sail all year, with peaks in summer and at Christmas. The south coast lies in the lee of the trade winds; the breeze comes in during the afternoon. The scheduled whale-watching boats leave from Puerto Colón and have more demand than rental.
