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.

    Amazing boat trip via the lovely Laura! Heard about TFE from seeing Mattie on TikTok. As we were in Tenerife at the same time as a few of our friends, we decided to charter a boat & of course, TFE were our 1st choice. We were lucky to be in contact with the wonderful Laura, who we initially dealt with via WhatsApp but then met in person once we arrived. She was so friendly, kind & knowledgeable & gave me some great advice as I was worried about going on a boat as I get seasick. The boat trip itself was brilliant - there were 16 of us on the boat, ranging from aged 11 to 55 looked after by the lovely Santhi who kept us constantly supplied with drinks. The food was also fab. We got to see loads of whales & dolphins and then fish when we stopped to snorkel. After following Laura’s advice I didn’t feel at all seasick. I would 100% recommend TFE - they listen to exactly what you want & make you feel important, even though they must deal with so many people.

    First Class! Before our holiday to Tenerife me and my girlfriend discussed the excursions we wanted to experience to which jet ski-ing and quad biking. Having looked around we came across Tenerife First Excursions. The price deal Sarah managed to offer was non-refuse able, we were given what we was promised and through out the duration of the holiday Sarah was able to sort out any further enquires we had. The excursion them selves were brilliant experience and I highly recommend Tenerife First Excursions due to their honesty, reliability and the ability to give you the best experience at the best price.

    Wunderbarer Bootsausflug Ein sehr gelungener Ausflug (wenn man den Wellengang verträgt :D) Der Tourleiter ist sehr humorvoll und locker und wertet dadurch die Tour nochmal auf. Wir haben einige Wale und Delfine gesehen. Der Anblick auf dem Meer war einfach traumhaft. Das Boot bietet reichlich Platz und Möglichkeiten sehr schöne Fotos zu schießen. Der Badestopp war sehr schön und das Essen war sehr gut! Es wurde sogar Essen für Vegetarier angeboten, sehr schön. Alles in allem absolut empfehlenswert, Top!

    Thank you Laura! We booked jet skis same-day last minute through WhatsApp with Laura and she managed to get us onto jet skis at 6pm! Miracle worker, and a true pleasure from start to finish. We went with extreme jet skis and couldn’t get over how fast they go! Highly recommend.

    Definitely the place to buy excursions Ross, in Los Cristianos, is a star! He knows his stuff and made booking the trip a breeze. He responds to WhatsApp messages extremely quickly and is super helpful. He also made several restaurant and bar recommendations. He is a real credit to the company.We loved our star gazing on Mount Teide. Thanks, Ross.

    Kim was Amazing - would highly recommend you book through Kim at TFE! Where do I start! Kim was absolutely amazing. Upon arriving at the office we were made to feel very welcome. From the go we knew we had made the right choice booking with TFE. There was no pressure, all options were given to us and we were enabled to make the best decisions based of Kim’s knowledge and information of excursions on the island. We booked Siam Park VIP, a sunset boat cruise and the jet skis. Unfortunately a family member fell poorly in the day of the boat trip and we couldn’t make it - Kim was very kind and helped us rearrange same day no fussing. All 3 excursions were amazing and from start to finish Kim was a great help! When we come back, this will be our first stop on the island as we know Kim will take care of everything we need to make our time as special and enjoyable as possible! Thanks again Kim! Jordan & Evelyn
