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.

    Must do excursion A must do excursion! The rep we booked it through at Tenerife first excursions was really helpful and informative. Not pushy at all! The boat trip was so good! The captain was also super friendly and made everyone feel very welcome and at home and shared lots of facts about the dolphins/ whales and the sea. Very interesting. The sunset was also beautiful! So happy we chose to do this tour! It made our holiday!

    Service above and beyond As Daniel helped keep us sane through lockdown I thought it only fair to book my excursions with TFE. I am severely sight impaired so my options for excursions is a little limited but Mike in the LC branch went above and beyond to make sure my trips were the best experiance possible - checking and rechecking the best possible date for the Tiede by night trip so I could see as many stars as possible and sorting a most excellent jeep safari to Tiede and Masca. The level of service you get from TFE is second to none and I would never even think of using anyone else for my excursions. Thanks a million, guys ans Keep it Country!

    Uur jetskiën Opgehaald bij het hotel, leuke mensen! Op de jetski een korte efficiënte uitleg en daarna gelijk het water op, heerlijk zelf mogen varen. Mooie omgeving en een fantastische ervaring. Ook zijn we daarna weer netjes terug naar het hotel gebracht.

    Intimate boat for a family-friendly outing The cruise is on a small, intimate boat so we got up close and personal with the many dolphins that we saw. Once we found a huge pod of dolphins, the captain stopped the boat and we were able to just hang out for awhile as the dolphins frolicked around us. My family and I couldn’t wipe the smiles from our faces if we tried! We also caught sight of a couple of whales which was just such a bonus. The cruise includes a sandwich but this isn’t really needed. I think a small offering of nuts/meats/cheeses would have been fine or even no food at all.

    A great day Whale Watching This turned out to be a great day. The crew were all very sweet , helpful and friendly and we actually got to see 13 whales that day on April 19th, 2023. The boat was large enough where everyone got a seat or a place to watch. We are vegan, and pre-ordered a vegan meal of Paella, and it was tasty. They had a swim session at the endl. All in all, I would highly recommend this tour.
