Snorkeling Gran Canaria With Club Canary
This is a shared snorkeling boat trip from Puerto de Mogán, one of the prettiest harbours in Gran Canaria. You sail out along the south west coast to a sheltered cove, jump in to snorkel over clear water and good fish life, and come back to a deck spread with Canarian food and cold drinks. Gear, food, drinks and photos are all in the price, so you just turn up ready to swim.
Who This Snorkeling Trip Suits
It is a relaxed, friendly trip that suits most people who can swim. If you want a calm day on the water with a snorkel, a swim and a good feed, this is it. If you are after a wildlife safari or guaranteed dolphins and turtles, this is not that, and we would rather tell you now.
What To Expect From This Snorkeling Trip
What You Get
- A 3 hour boat trip with a real local crew
- Snorkel gear for adults and children
- A swim and snorkel at a quiet cove
- Canarian food, drinks and photos included
What You Won't Get
- No turtle or dolphin promises
- Not a wildlife safari
- No hotel pickup
- Not suitable if you cannot swim
We are not going to promise turtles here. Turtle sightings on this stretch of coast are not common, and it would not be honest to pretend otherwise. This is a snorkeling boat trip for the swim, the cove and the food, with good fish life along the way, not a wildlife guarantee.
Where You Snorkel, El Perchel Cove
Your snorkel stop is El Perchel, a calm, clear cove on the south west coast of Gran Canaria that you can only reach by sea. Because it is boat-access only, it stays quiet and the water is clear, which makes it one of the easier, nicer spots to snorkel near Puerto de Mogán. You can expect good fish life, shoals of small fish, wrasses and the odd surprise, all from the surface with your gear on. The exact spot can change with the sea and weather, and the crew always pick the safest, clearest option on the day.

Real talk from your local team in the Canary Islands
This is a proper, relaxed snorkeling boat trip with a real local crew who have run it for years. You get to a cove you cannot reach any other way, the gear is sorted for all ages, and the food and drinks on the way back are genuinely good, Canarian potatoes, tortilla and homemade sangria, not a sad packet of crisps.
We are not going to promise turtles or guarantee wildlife, because that would not be honest. What we can promise is a good snorkel, a lovely cove and a well-fed afternoon. Just remember there is no hotel pickup and you need to be able to swim. If those are fine, this is a lovely half day out.
For an easy, honest snorkel with good food and a quiet cove, this one is hard to beat.
