Stargazing in Tenerife: Astronomy & Sailing Tour at Sunset

The ocean becomes the stage for an unforgettable journey.

Board our 7.5-meter RIB boat at Marina del Sur, just before sunset, and set sail towards the open sea. As the coastline fades, history and the cosmos intertwine: from the ancient Guanche society to the first Spanish navigators who reached these islands guided only by the stars.

Once night falls, the Atlantic sky reveals its secrets. With binoculars, a planisphere, and the help of our green laser, you will learn to trace constellations, understand celestial navigation, and listen to the ocean itself through our hydrophone.

In this intimate adventure for only 10 guests, every detail is designed for discovery and wonder.

Let yourself drift between the sea and the stars, in an experience that connects past, present, and infinity.

Free cancellation up to 48 hours in advance

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I cancel the previously booked activity?

On each short or long experience page, you have the information and cancellation policy specific to it.
If you still have doubts, you can contact us and we will help you to solve them.

How can I pay at Atlantic Star Adventure?

All you have to do is pre-book your activity and fill in the contact information required on the screen.
Shortly, the person in charge of the chosen activity will contact you and will indicate the method of payment (usually by bank transfer or bizum).

If I am going to sail, is it necessary to have any previous experience?

Our experiences are designed for anyone with an interest and no sailing or astronomy experience is required.
Our instructors and skippers love to share their knowledge with all those who visit us.

What should I bring on the day of departure?

Before the activity you will receive a voucher with all the details of your reservation and with the main tips both for sailing and for making observations.
It will depend a lot on the time of the year and the area where you are going to do your activity, but keep in mind that as a general rule, in the sea even in summer it is always advisable to wear several clothes and if we are hot we will remove layers.
Always take some warm clothes for sailing!
The same thing happens when we do observations at night, that although they are months of heat, at night temperatures drop quite a lot and it is preferable to be prepared with a good jacket, a hat to cover our head and even gloves.

Can I hire an exclusive activity?

Of course.
It will depend on the availability in each case but it is very common to reserve a boat for a family or group exclusively.

Is the activity I am going to perform insured?

All our boats are duly registered in List 6 and are covered by Civil Liability Insurance and SOVI (Compulsory Travelers Insurance).
Insurance to cover the typical case of not coming because my grandfather got sick is another matter.
In such cases, you have to take out personal insurance.

Can I get dizzy?

If you tend to get seasick, tell your skipper and he/she will give you some recommendations to avoid seasickness as much as possible, although they are not infallible since each body reacts differently to this situation.

How long is the experience and how is the time distributed on land and at sea?

Although it depends on each territory and especially on weather conditions and sea conditions, the standard is approximately 1 hour of navigation and 2 hours of observation on land.

How will I know where to find the meeting point?

Prior to departure we will send you a Voucher with all the details of your reservation: meeting point, what is included in your trip… and the telephone number of the skipper or instructor.

Will I have telephone coverage during my trip?

Depending on the geographical area you are in, it is likely that on trips away from the coast you may lose mobile coverage.
