Description

3h Whale Watching Catamaran in Costa Adeje

This fantastic excursion departs daily from Puerto Colón in Costa Adeje, Tenerife. The 3-hour catamaran tour sails each day, searching for whales and dolphins along the Costa Adeje coast.

The Experience

Pick-up is available from designated locations in select areas of Tenerife, including Golf del Sur, Los Gigantes, and the main south coast. Alternatively, you can choose to meet directly at Puerto Colón, in Costa Adeje.

Your 3-hour Catamaran excursion sets off from Puerto Colón, giving you the chance to enjoy one of the most popular experiences in Costa Adeje: whale and dolphin watching in their natural habitat. As the catamaran glides along the coastline, the knowledgeable crew will share interesting insights about the different species of cetaceans found in these waters, including their behaviours, feeding habits, and migration patterns.

Keep your eyes on the sea, as pilot whales, common bottlenose dolphins, and spotted dolphins often swim alongside the catamaran, sometimes close enough to feel like they’re saying hello! After experiencing these incredible animals, the journey continues toward the far west end of Costa Adeje, where the catamaran stops for you to relax. Here, you can sunbathe, enjoy a refreshing swim, take in the breathtaking coastal views, and savour a light lunch served on board.

At the end of the cruise, you’ll return to Puerto Colón. If you selected the transport option, you’ll be taken back to your designated drop-off point near your accommodation, leaving you relaxed and full of unforgettable memories from a magical day at sea.

    Fiat 500 Boats and Monkey Park We visited a couple of days ago and was greeted by Lorena who was excellent at finding the best trips. She also gave her number to us incase we needed to contact her regarding any of our excursions, we also got 20% voucher for chillbox and 10% voucher for Banging Burgers since we booked with these guys. We had booked the Fiat 500 Boat ride - 1 hour and it truly a experience that we will not be forgetting any time soon the staff down at the docks where very friendly and talked us all through the steps of how the boat worked and kept in contact if we went out of range. We also paid the extra 20 euros for the professional photos that they took of us We also purchased tickets for the monkey park which is a great affordable trip we got a taxi to the monkey park as we wasn’t staying anywhere near it and the park it’s self was just amazing so many different animals not just monkeys and so many great pictures was taken got straight through to entrance instead of queuing as we had purchased the ticket from Tenerife First Excursions Such a great couple of days of excursions will definitely be back to book more trips in the future.

    An amazing night in Tenerife with Stars & Ski Picked us up on time- The dinner was nice, simple Spanish food. They were very organised and everything was done properly, really appreciate their knowledge of stars and ski , felt so happy did this, something different and very interesting! Most importantly was freezing cold so glad they told us in advance to wear very warm clothing, please everyone who wants to do this remember to have few layers of cloths to able to enjoy the night otherwise it would be very uncomfortable. I would personally do this again in another visit to see the ski at another time of the year ,,, thank you so such an amazing experience, worth every penny!
