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.

    Fantastic recommendations After seeing them on TikTok, we went to First Excursions to book a Jet Ski experience whilst we were in Tenerife last week. We were welcomed by the lovely LisaFay and we were given a fantastic recommendation. The service we received was brilliant and we were all booked within a few minutes. I will definitely be going to them again for any excursions in the future. For anyone who is interested, we booked a 1hour Double Jet Ski experience with Extreme Skis and it was fantastic! They even took some brilliant photos of us on the ski& had 40+ of the photos airdropped over to my phone for €20.

    The most amazing and understanding service! I booked a surprise private boat excursion for myself & my husband for his birthday! Unfortunately due to me becoming pregnant & having awful sickness we couldn’t fly out to Tenerife! I contacted the lady I had booked with and she was very understanding & issued a full refund immediately! I can’t thank this. I can’t thank enough & when we can get over to Tenerife I will 💯 be booking any excursions with this company! Many Thanks again for your wonderful & understanding service xxx
