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.

    very enjoyable trip into the ocean Beautiful trip. The boat captain is a very cool guy, let us get very close to the whales to take pictures without being too intrusive. Wonderful 3 hours.

    Whales and dolphins, whales and dolphins….yeah! Got off to a slow start and was concerned we may not see anything. We saw lots of pilot whales, whole families plus babies. There were dolphins too, swimming with the whales. To top it off we saw a turtle. The swim at the end was great, so refreshing g. Captain and mate were great and friends made with the rest of the boat. Only a small group so we didn’t miss anything. 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

    Great Excursion We booked our excursion through Lindsay at San Andreas. She was very helpful and informative on the different trips available to what we were looking for. We booked 2 trips: Night Sian and Coach trip to Mount Teide. Both were very good. The mount Teide trip was an all round visit to Mount Teide and then to the North of the island. We visited serval places with stops no longer than 45 mins. If you would like to see more of the Island I would recommend this trip.

    Quad biking with Daniel Daniel was a great tour guide, as soon as he picked us up he was full of energy and made me and my boyfriend so comfortable with him. We had the best experience thanks to Daniel and his other colleague I don’t remember his name. We would 100% do this again when we come back to Tenerife and I’ve already recommended quad biking to many of friends since being back! Thank you Daniel for being amazing to us. Can’t wait to do it again.
