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.

    Geweldige excursies! Tijdens onze zussen-vakantie hebben wij 2 excursies geboekt bij Tenerife First: quad tour in El Teide en kajakken/snorkelen met dolfijnen en schildpadden spotten. Daniel hielp ons goed met het uitzoeken wat we konden doen en raadde goede bedrijven aan. Wij hadden het kajakken geboekt bij Canary Kayak Tenerife waarbij het bedrijf werd gerund door een super lief koppel die ook foto’s en video’s namen van de excursie. Deze kreeg je achteraf ook via whatsapp doorgestuurd. Super leuk als herinnering! De quad tour door El Teide hebben we geboekt bij @quadebuggypiratitenerife. Marie, die onze tour begeleidde, is heel lief en heeft zo’n leuke vibe. Tijdens de tour zijn er een paar stops waarbij je kan genieten van het uitzicht en tijd hebt om foto’s te maken. Als je deze tour wilt doen raad ik je aan om het in de ochtend te doen omdat het in de middag te warm is.Thanks Daniel! Wij hebben een leuke vakantie gehad en hebben mooie herinneringen gemaakt :)

    Bonne expérience ! La ballade fut tres sympa ! Le personnel est aimable et à l’heure comme indiqué. Les instructions sont claires. Nous avons eu la chance de voir des dauphins ainsi que d’autre type de delphinidae. Dans le respect de la nature. Et même si nous n’en avions pas vus, la ballade est très calme et agréable ! Le bateau est bien, en petit comité !

We went on half a day trip around Mount Teide & Freebird boat trip. Both trips where amazing, we were lucky enough to have the pick up outside our hotel. Coaches on time and Clean. We will be going back to Mark to book again if we head back to Los Cristianos. Thanks for helping us :)

    Amazing The yacht trip was amazing and totally worth it. Patrick was so friendly from the start and very knowledgable on the dolphins and whales. Patrick provided us with drinks (soft and alcoholic) throughout the trip, as well as preparing lunch. Given the opportunity to jump off the boat and swim at one of the local beaches. Overall very luxurious experience for an amazing price - would definitely recommend
