7 tours · €40–€65 per person · ★ 4.9
Water sports in Gran Canaria run along the south coast, and the 7 sessions here were picked by hand from every listing rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €40 per person for yoga on a paddle board at sea in a group of up to four to €65 for a guided jet ski ride off Maspalomas priced per machine for one or two riders. The kayak trips paddle the Mogán cliffs into every sea cave the conditions allow and stop to snorkel; the surf schools sit at the foot of the Maspalomas dunes and move to the best waves of the day; the stand up paddle lessons are small enough to learn at your own pace, with GoPro photos included.
A quick way to choose: the kayak routes ask you to swim confidently in open sea and to help carry the boat to the beach, the surf lessons take everyone from scratch with wetsuit and board included, and the jet ski needs no licence but has a minimum driving age. Transport is rarely part of the price. The best reviewed water sports in Gran Canaria come first below.
