Maxicat Private Charter, Quick Facts
Maxicat Private Catamaran Tenerife The Go-To Boat For Company Outings And Big Groups
The Maxicat is a 21-metre catamaran based at Puerto Colón, and it is one of the most requested private boats in Tenerife for company outings, team building and large celebrations. Its shared whale watching tours are well known, but a private booking is a completely different thing: no strangers, just your group on a big, spacious catamaran with a crew that loves hosting private events. Food and drinks are included, along with official licensed whale and dolphin watching, a swim stop and music on board. It is comfortable from 20 guests up to the 105 licence maximum.
The whole boat is private for your group, with food, drinks, official whale watching and crew included. Club Canary confirms fast, sends official invoices with taxes, organises upgrades, and has the local network to sort any problem before your date. We are an official ticket seller, the boat is run by its licensed operator.
Private charters run from 3 to 9 hours, from 2300€, with food, drinks and crew included in every booking. The 5 and 6 hour trips are the ones most groups choose. Some dates carry a seasonal supplement that is added automatically at checkout, see the Booking section for how that works.
Your whole team, one big catamaran, and a day everyone talks about after.
The calendar only shows dates that are already confirmed as unavailable. Green dates are not always guaranteed, because the Maxicat also runs its regular shared tours on the same boat. For a specific or last-minute date, always contact us first to confirm before you book.
Maxicat Private Boat Charter Tenerife
The Maxicat is famous for its shared whale and dolphin watching tours, but a private booking is a completely different experience. No strangers, no chaos, just your group on a big, spacious catamaran with a crew that genuinely loves hosting private events. And because Club Canary is the official private charter retailer, you get fast confirmations and clear pricing, with no back and forth and no middlemen.
Every private trip includes official licensed whale and dolphin watching. The Maxicat holds the official wildlife-spotting licence, so your group gets a responsible, certified experience in some of the richest marine waters in Europe. The crew knows exactly where to go and what to look for.

Your Group, Your Boat: the Maxicat's decks are built for a crowd, sailing out of Costa Adeje.
How Your Private Catamaran Day Looks
- 1Boarding At Puerto Colón
Arrive at least 15 minutes before departure. Check in with your Club Canary confirmation, meet the crew, and get settled on the boat.
- 2Sailing Out & Wildlife Spotting
Head into the channel between Tenerife and La Gomera. The Maxicat holds the official wildlife-spotting licence, and the crew knows exactly where to find whales and dolphins.
- 3Drinks, Food & Socialising
Unlimited drinks and your chosen food served on board. Music on, sun out, your group doing their thing. This is where it all comes together for team outings.
- 4Swim Stop
The boat anchors at a nice spot. Jump in, relax on the front net, or watch from the deck. Longer trips anchor near Los Gigantes or the dramatic Masca Bay.
- 5Coastal Sail Back
Sail back along the Tenerife coastline. Last drinks, great views, and the kind of ending that makes everyone want to book it again next year.
- ★Optional: Longer Routes
Book 5 hours or more and the route extends to the Los Gigantes cliffs and Masca Bay. More sea time, more sightseeing. A great shout for larger groups.
For Company Outings & Team Building

The Pitch For Decision-Makers
If you are presenting this to a decision-maker, here is the pitch: a full private day on a 21-metre catamaran for your entire team. Food, drinks, official whale watching, a swim stop, music and sun. Club Canary handles official invoices, food choices, pick-up coordination and any custom requests. You just show up and enjoy the day.

Why Book With Club Canary
We have run more private trips on this boat than we can count, so we are the go-to for it. We are fast, we know exactly what is possible, and we can organise upgrades easily. Booking with us just makes sense.
Flexible Payment
Pay however suits you. You can pay a deposit now and the rest before your trip, or pay the full amount at once. Both are completely fine, and for large groups a deposit simply holds your date.
Official Invoices, No Surprises
You get an official invoice with taxes included, no hidden costs, and no surprise charges added afterwards. What you book is what you pay, which makes it easy for company and event budgets.
How High-Season Pricing Works
During busier months a seasonal supplement applies. It is added automatically at checkout when you select a high-season date, so the price you see already includes it. There are no hidden extras, and many months have no supplement at all.
| Season | Supplement |
|---|---|
| January to April, and November | No supplement |
| May and June | 350€ |
| July and August | 700€ |
| September and October | 450€ |
| 23 December to 6 January | 200€ |

Because Club Canary is the official private Maxicat retailer with strong local connections across Tenerife, we always have a solution ready, whether that is a fast reschedule, an alternative boat, or a full refund. You will not be left without a plan. That is something a single operator simply cannot offer.

If you want jet ski, kayak or other activities, these are booked separately. Club Canary offers a wide range of water sports in Tenerife that combine easily with your day.
It is not possible anywhere in Tenerife to board a catamaran, sail to a restaurant or beach club, and return by boat. It is not safe or permitted. If you want a dinner, after party, beach club or drinks after your trip, we can arrange that on land through our local connections. Just contact us at events@clubcanary.com.

Frequently Asked Questions
The questions companies and groups ask us most. Still unsure? Chat with the Club Canary team on WhatsApp, we reply fast from 08:00 to 22:00.
How many people can the Maxicat catamaran take?
The Maxicat is built for groups. It comfortably takes up to 100 guests, which makes it a strong choice for company outings, large celebrations and events. Have an even bigger group? Just contact us.
What is included in a private Maxicat charter?
Every private Maxicat booking includes the crew, food and drinks. You can choose your food option when booking, from sandwiches (vegan choices available) to mixed, chicken or fish paella, and we are happy to arrange other wishes on request.
Can I pay a deposit, or pay everything at once?
Whatever suits you. You can pay a small deposit now and the rest on the day, or pay the full amount at once. For companies and larger groups, we keep it flexible and simple.
Do I get an official invoice for my company?
Yes. You receive an official invoice with taxes included, with no hidden costs or surprise charges added later. What you book is what you pay, which makes it easy for company and event budgets.
Are there different prices in high season?
Yes. During busier months a seasonal supplement applies, and it is added automatically when you select a high-season date, so the price you see at checkout already includes it. Summer is the highest, spring and autumn are lower, and many months have no supplement at all. There are no hidden extras.
What departure times and trip lengths are available?
You can depart at 10:00, 13:00 or 16:00, or choose flexible and we will pick a good time for you. Trips run from 3 to 9 hours, and the 5 and 6 hour options are the most popular. Need another time? Just get in touch.
Why book the Maxicat with Club Canary instead of directly?
Because we make it easy and we have your back. We are fast, we handle upgrades and special requests, and you get clear pricing with official invoices. And if anything ever goes wrong, such as a boat issue shortly before your date, our local network means we can arrange another boat or even a different event, something a single operator cannot offer. Our team is here from 08:00 to 22:00.

Club Canary's Honest Take
Real talk from your local team in the Canary Islands
The Maxicat is great value for a private catamaran in Tenerife for a large group. It is not the fanciest boat in the fleet, but it is big, well set up, and the crew are genuinely great on private trips. We have organised this boat more times than we can count, and the groups always have a brilliant day.
One thing worth knowing: the Maxicat's overall reviews are mostly from its busy shared tours, which can feel hectic with large groups of strangers. Private bookings are a completely different experience, more relaxed, more personal, and the crew enjoy them more too. The feedback from private groups booked through Club Canary speaks for itself.
As the official private charter retailer, we confirm fast, send proper invoices, and have your back if anything goes wrong. You bring your group, we handle everything else.
Big group, great price, official retailer, sorted fast. This is the one to book.
