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.

    Thank you Mark and Dominika! We did the Whale and Dolphin Watching afternoon boat trip which was fab. The staff and crew were lovely and the boat was big enough, not overcrowded. A massive thanks to Mark and Dominika from the Los Cristianos office who helped us book the trip and was so helpful and knowledgeable about all the trips. When we come back, we'll be booking with you again!

    We booked a Boom Trike trip with Tenerife First Excursions in November 2021. Boom Trikes took us on a coastal run to Los Gigantes and inland into the mountains where we had wonderful views towards la Gomera and across to Tiede. We went to places we wouldn’t normally go made even better on the Boom trike bike. Would recommend this trip for the views and excitement of the bike. Take a jacket though! We booked through Kim at Tenerife First Excursions who arranged pick up from our Appartments. Kim was so helpful and made us feel that nothing was too much trouble. Many thanks Kim. 👍👍

    Thank you to Kim Lory for helping me arrange our helicopter ride. she even let me pay in installments as it is one of the more expensive excursions but it was worth every penny!
    my children and I had the best time, the views were breath taking! we even took our Grandma's ashes so that she finally got her wish to fly in a helicopter, a very emotional and beautiful experience ❤️

    Booked jet skis, water park, and paragliding through first excursions. Great service and epic experiences. Unfortunately the paragliding was cancelled because of the wind but we’ll definitely do this next time we’re around! Highly recommended

    Perfect end to our holiday Amazing boat trip, so worth the money! We saw plenty of whales, dolphins and even turtles. Our lovely boat driver knew exactly where to look and seemed just as excited as us himself. We even got to go for a swim in a shallower part of the sea. Was a really lovely relaxed trip with a plentiful supply of soft drinks and beers. Unfortunately the vegan option was just a box of (very very) plain salad. But that wasn’t a big part of the trip so just make sure you don’t get on the boat starving if you’re vegan!
