Blue Explorers

At Blue Explorers we have formed a team specialized in active leisure with experience and the capacity to serve you in several languages. Although our main headquarters are in the Taurito area, in Gran Canaria, we also provide services from other parts of the island.

We serve tourists who come looking for the warmth of the Atlantic in any season of the year, which allows us to say that we annually receive an average of 10,000 visitors who return home satisfied after a vacation that we turn into unique. Our main services are:

- Diving excursions both for divers who begin in this modality and for those with advanced knowledge.

- Diving courses of all the certifications available so that you can take your degree after being in our school.

- Family Snorkel to see the Canarian seabed from the boat excursions that we organize. In these expeditions we can also see cetaceans such as dolphins.

- Windsurf and paddle surf with classes that include the most basic levels with the possibility of following the progression you need.

- Parascending in the sea to bring you the best panoramic view of the island whose interior you can also see in an off-road Jeep or driving a buggie.

At Blue Explorers we want you to try sailing in the Atlantic by getting on our jet skis. These allow us to abandon the general accessibility of the beach to discover cliffs and coasts that can only be reached from the water, so in most cases you will be alone or with another visitor.

We take your location into account to set the starting point in order to make it easy for you. That is why we suggest that it take place from Playa de Taurito , Puerto de Mogán or Playa del Inglés. All are areas perfectly communicated by transport services. You should know:

- That we are at your disposal every day of the week. The tour that opens each day takes place from 10:30 am.

- You will use a jet ski for one person or more participants in a route in which you will be supervised by a guide. This takes care both of you to quickly manage the vehicle in the ideal safety conditions and to explain the characteristics of the places through which we pass.

- A video will be recorded and photos taken that you can purchase by adding the cost to the price of the adventure.

At Blue Explorers we put at your disposal in Gran Canaria a boat of the right length to travel in a group with the privacy that you like to maintain. That's why we embark you on the Mondragón, which has space to transport 12 crewmen at the same time.

We will leave along the southern coast of this part of the Canary Islands to reach coves, cliffs and beaches far from the common points of tourist concentration. There we can relax, swim in the ocean waters and get close to small places full of charm in which to do a tasting of local products. The basic data of this adventure are:

- Departure from Puerto de Mogán at 10 am to be part of a 4-hour journey corresponding to a total of half a day.

- We will stop after a stretch of navigation so that whoever wishes can jump into the sea and swim.

- We will try tapas as part of our lunch and drinks , all homemade so that you can get a general impression of Canarian gastronomy.

- We take you from the hotel where you spend the holidays to the ship avoiding any discomfort of displacement on your part.

At Blue Explorers we surround ourselves with the optimal conditions for you to learn to windsurf on the island of Gran Canaria. We focus our courses on the morning shift, normally, because the breeze is softer.

The initiation programs have hardly any limitations in terms of age and include theory and practice that allow to create a solid foundation in this sport, being suitable from the age of 8 . You can also turn to us for a more specific teaching if you have experience, what we will leave for noon when the wind acquires a greater force.

We focus on the Bahía Feliz facilities where the instructors who are going to take charge of the training are waiting for:

- Classes for two hours at the chosen level that can go from beginner to expert. What kind of knowledge you need will be determined before you start. We speak Spanish, English, German, French and Polish.

- We lend you the table with the corresponding sail by size and height and the wetsuit. You will be covered by the specific insurance of the activity. You should put on your swimsuit to come and put a towel in your backpack to have on hand.

At Blue Explorers we have a state-of-the-art boat to make you fly over the Atlantic. We program this activity both in Playa del Inglés and in Mogán in Gran Canaria.

Parascending is suitable for all ages, including adults and children from 5 years old in this range. Of course, minors will always have to go with an adult so that they feel more comfortable and safe.

We have daily availability with departures both from the aforementioned beaches and from Taurito at the time that suits you after talking with the instructors. It awaits you:

- A little ride on the boat while you equip yourself with the harnesses that will hold you to the parachute that is towed by the boat.

- A progressive flight leaving the sea at your feet with an average height between one hundred and 200 meters . It starts from the same water level. As the boat accelerates to pick up speed, the parachute inflates more intensely and begins to ascend, providing participants with a general overview of the entire environment. Above you will realize that there is nothing more than calm and absence of the usual noise of tourism.

With Blue Explorers it is very easy to get to know the island of Gran Canaria in detail from all perspectives, even on foot. Our hiking routes take place on Thursdays so that you can start preparing for the weekend with the best leisure activities in nature.

The Sunset Tour is a route that takes place in the direction of the Ventana del Nublo consisting of a total of 7.5 kilometers with 300 meters of unevenness to climb and the same figure in decline. It occupies the center of the island where we will see a mountainous system with peaks that exceed 1,500 meters. We will walk through pine forests to the Pozo de las Nieves, located in the highest place in the area. We will make the moment coincide with the sunset to see how the sun hides behind the Teide.

You have to be physically prepared because the level of complexity is medium and we will be moving around the island all day.

A professional guide will accompany you and we will provide you with hiking poles with which the path will become more comfortable. We will also bring sandwiches at no additional cost and water to keep us hydrated. It is available in several languages and you can request transportation from your accommodation.

Buggies are one of the most interesting Blue Explorer alternatives for exploring the Canary Islands on its unpaved roads and tracks. We propose excursions that exceed two hours with routes through the southern part of the mountains of Gran Canaria.

These are guided routes by an expert in the area in which you drive for more than half the time on gravel and dirt trails that pass through natural settings. These take us to the oldest traditional villages starting from the Valle de Ayagaures .
We will pilot through various areas such as Fataga and the Thousand Palms in expeditions that adapt to your needs:

- The pick-up point for participants will be established according to the location of your accommodation, determining which one suits you best. In the same way, the time and date of the route are customized.

- We provide both the guide and the movement with the use of a buggy for one or 2 people equipped with the corresponding insurance.
Whoever is going to get behind the wheel needs a driving license with a minimum experience of 2 years.

With Blue Explorers you will discover the natural value of the island of Gran Canaria through our excursions in off-road vehicles. Along with the popularity of its beaches, there is alternative inland tourism that takes us to points such as Masca or the essential Teide National Park.

We depart from Playa de las Américas every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. We do it from 9:15 a.m. in the morning to make the most of the day, setting the end of the adventure at 6:15 p.m. in the afternoon for a tour that includes:

- Visit in a single day to the most representative points of Tenerife, including Los Silos, La Orotava, Vilaflor and Buenavista.

- 4x4 vehicles with driver in which you will travel comfortably seated while you contemplate the environment. We will also stop several times so that you can take pictures with your camera if you have brought it.

There is a second tour with a boat trip that takes us to Garajonay Park in La Gomera.

We will serve you some food but it is recommended that you come with some pocket money and some warm clothing for when we reach the higher altitude areas of the island.

At Blue Explorers we show you another way to get to know the Atlantic Ocean by embarking on an excursion to observe marine life from the Mola Mola yacht.

We will leave from Puerto Colón to travel the Costa de Adeje with another ten passengers in shared departures for adults and children. This expedition has the following characteristics:

- It is available from Monday to Sunday with the departure time set at 10.15 in the morning although there are also expeditions in the afternoon shift with departure at 1.15 pm. We will sail for 3 hours to enter the Canarian waters at a sufficient distance from the coast to allow the encounter with marine fauna.

- We lend you basic material to snorkel so it is convenient that you bring your swimsuit, sunscreen and a towel. For you to jump into the water we will stop in a beautiful bay where the sea is especially clear and facilitates visibility under the surface.

- You will take drinks and snacks that are included in the price while we are on the journey.

Minors have specific rates to join any of these excursions.

At Blue Explorer we prepare diving activities for beginners and children to experienced diving programs in open and deep waters, both in Tenerife and in Gran Canaria. There are also other activities and excursions, such as land safaris and sailing trips. We welcome large groups, as well as parties, families and younger individuals, but we recommend large groups to book in advance and contact us to confirm their reservation.

Blue Explorers provides all diving equipment (unless otherwise specified). The instructors are fully qualified and multilingual. They are also experts in identifying the plant and animal life of the Canary Islands to make your trip as informative as it is fun. There may be opportunities to take an underwater photo to take home as a souvenir or post to social media as soon as you are back on land.

We suggest that our divers bring a picnic lunch or reserve a meal at one of the many beachfront restaurants in Taurito Bay or in the town square of Abades, where our dive centers are located. All transportation to and from your resort is included for those who participate in our programs. Even if you don't want to participate in scuba diving, you can join in on the fun and watch from the beach.
