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.

    A big thank you to Tenerife First Excursions and a special mention to Lisa Fay for being absolutely brilliant in helping us book our activities! From start to finish, Lisa was very attentive and knowledgable- not just about the activities but the whole island itself! We instantly felt very comfortable and confident with the bookings we made! She reiterated that if we had any issues with our activities, Tenerife First Excursions would do whatever they can to find a resolution which was very much appreciated! The best surprise was that we booked the same boat trip on the same day as Lisa!- and so the party and fun continued and we had the best day with Lisa and her family. We’ll definitely be back on our next trip to Tenerife! ❤️❤️

    Whale of a time I am writing this review on behalf of our granddaughter and her friend. We paid for this boat trip for her birthday. We brought the trip though tenerife first excursions a lovely helpful lady called Lisa Fay. We booked the trip on our last visit. Also booked a jet ski and Siam park .which my granddaughter will do on our next visit in 3 weeks time.
    The boat trip was amazing only 15 people on board. The guys who ran it were lovely and look after all the people on the boat. Carva,
    beer,juice and water plus chicken legs, Canarian potatoes ,bread, rice and more all included. They also saw a family of whales and the seagulls following the boat being fed by the crew. They stopped for a swim by a beach, and snorkels were provided if you wished to use them. All in all for the price a fabulous 3 hours.

    Thank you to Kim for helping us to make the right choices. We knew what we wanted, but were open to compromises and different options. Her great knowledge about different experiences helped us to make the right choices to please a little one, teenager and exploring adult. Thank you so much, we had a great time 😀👍

    Fantastic Customer Service! We came across an issue whilst on the island (which wasn’t the fault of the business or owner). The owner reached out and was not only professional but very welcoming. He was able to put us at ease and ensure that our remaining time on the island was enjoyed. My family and I can’t thank him enough for his kindness and we look forward to booking lots of excursions when we return to the island. Keep up the FAB work Daniel and the team!!
