“My family of 6 really enjoyed the SaltyTours experience in Palma. The boat ride tour was comfortable and private since the maximum passengers is a small group of 9. Once we arrived, they enjoyed snorkeling and playing with the self propelled sea scooters. The SUP boards were popular too. Thank you for a wonderful day on the water in Palma.”

2.Jet Ski Tour + Paddle Surf + Photos + Free drink

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 246 reviews · 30 minutes - 1 hour

Meet your Spanish or English-speaking instructor at Valencia harbor for a safety briefing, then ride a jet ski along the coast for 30 minutes or one hour. One or two people can share a ski for the same price. The package also advertises paddle surf, photos, and a free drink, while the listed inclusions cover fuel, insurance, equipment, and cold-weather wetsuits.

“Had a great experience, the guide was really friendly and everything was well organised. However it was upsetting that the jetski speed was limited to 58kph and the guides jetski was a lot faster. This is not common for them to be limited.”

Tamanique Waterfalls tour from Surf City

5.Tamanique Waterfalls tour from Surf City

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 125 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $64Top rated

From El Tunco, drive 25 minutes to Tamanique, then hike downhill to waterfalls and swimming pools. Guides such as Pablo, Chamba, and Freddie keep the pace flexible and point out cliff-jumping spots. Expect a beautiful but demanding return hike of about 50 minutes to an hour, so wear sturdy shoes and bring water.

“Not only was this an incredible experience but our guide was amazing and one of the nicest people I met. The hike was tough but the guides made sure to accommodate all levels. We saw some gorgeous waterfalls and beautiful scenery. The best part, unlike other experiences I’ve taken, was they were punctual. They communicated what time they would arrive, arrives at that exact time and dropped us off right when the time was up. No more no less. Would absolutely recommend Tunco Life and all their excursions.”
