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 “trip to the stars” The whole experience was absolutely wonderful, well organised and fun. From communication after booking to organising the pick up, the stunning sunset spot, the guides (special shoutout to Hans who did an amazing job of guiding our tiny group of Germans through the stars in the sky and some nice anecdotes on the ground), drivers (shoutout to Roland!) and everyone else involved were all super helpful, nice and knowledgable. The food at the Canarian restaurant was simple but lovely and the staff very welcoming and attentive. It was a great excursion from start to finish and definitely worth the money! 10/10 would recommend

    Very efficient (Booked day trip to La Palma) We booked a day trip to La Palma through Tenerife First Excursions. Lisa at the booking office could not have been more helpful. She rang the company that actually runs the trip, because, although the volcano had stopped, she advised that it was always best to check the latest details. There isn´t a pick-up service for this excursion so she gave us the number of the local taxi firm and full details of where to go. Would book through them again

    Hele leuke ervaring. 8 walvissen gezien! Patrick heeft ons super goed geholpen. Hij was erg enthousiast en heeft ons veel verteld over tenerife en de dieren in de zee. We hebben prachtige walvissen gespot en hij maakte leuke grapjes! Zeker aan te raden. Wij gingen rond 16.00 en we hebben wel 8 walvissen gezien die de kapitein de rest van de dag nog niet gezien had!
