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.

    Echt een aanrader. Een prachtige ervaring. Het duurt drie uur, eerst gingen we de zee in en zagen al meteen een paar dolfijnen die met ons mee zwommen. Daarna de walvissen gezien. Wel op afstand, want die lagen te slapen. Helaas konden we de schildpad die in een net verwikkeld was niet redden. De bemanning had wel zijn best gedaan. Een pluim voor deze geweldige jongens.

    Trip to La Palma We took a day trip to La Palma from Tenerife on the Fred Olsen Ferry. We had a wonderful day. The arrangements were seamless. We were picked up at the port in La Palma and travelled on a very comfortable bus around the island. We viewed the devastation caused by the recent volcanic eruption and got a feel for the impact it had on the lives of those who live there. A lovely lunch in a small harbour before returning. We also had the opportunity to spend some time in the very quaint town of La Palma. Our guide Mattie was excellent and switched between Spanish and English with ease. An excellent day but be warned the chopping is often rough so take seasick tablets!

    Good experience and value for money We went to the office in Tenerife and Laura showed us different experiences that Tenerife First Excursion offered. She helped me pick experiences that were age appropriate for my daughter and we got really good prices! Laura was professional and had great knowledge of what she could offer. We visit Tenerife once a year and we will always go back to Laura.
