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.

    Libby Sailing Boat Private Charter We booked a private charter on the new libby sailing boat with Lisafay and we couldn’t have been happier, 3 hours sailing around seeing dolphins, turtles and pilot whales. Our captain then took us off to a little cove where we went snorkelling and paddle boarding! Thanks to Lisafay for sorting this trip for us after a stressful day of being messed around trying to hire a boat at short notice!

    CANARY KAYAK TENERIFE Had a brilliant time, instructors were lovely, safety conscious and very informative. Snorkelling with the fish and seeing the wildlife made this trip extra special. We can’t recommend this company enough. Thank you

    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!

    The Best Jet Ski Experience First time booking a jet ski experience with Tenerife First Excursions and by a mile it was the best one we’ve been on. Due to a poor experience with a different company on our previous visit I decided to do things differently this time. I contacted Tenerife First Excursions through WhatsApp while still in the UK. Roxie responded within minutes with all the information I needed, such as price list, the best day to go for best weather conditions and what steps to take when booking. Once we decided to book the 1 hr trip, Roxie sent me the payment link and within 10 minutes of contacting them, it was booked I was sent the invoice on WhatsApp, which you will need to show on the day along with photos of your id or passport details. I was sent all the details of where to go for the meeting point and once we were in Puerto Colon, it was easy to find. The lads on the boat from Extreme Skis were brilliant and made sure everyone on the trip was looked after whatever experience they had. The jet ski was the best one I have been on and was in immaculate condition, we had the best fun. Have no worries about booking with this outfit, whether you are already on Tenerife or before you fly out. It was a straight forward experience and a brilliant morning on the jet ski. We won’t book with anyone else.
