Whale and Dolphin Watching Yacht Trip – 3 Hours from Puerto Colon in Costa Adeje

While on a well earned holiday, heading to the sea for a whale-watching excursion sounds like the perfect getaway. It’s so therapeutic to be out on the water and enjoying tasty food and drink. Pilot whales inhabit the temperate waters feeding off giant squid, but bigger whales and some dolphins and turtles pass through too. After this experience, your yacht will take you to a remote bay for delicious food and drinks before taking you deep into crystal clear waters for an invigorating swim, snorkel & amazing photo opertunities.

    Relaxing trip The crew were very good and saw the whales and dolphins. Very relaxing trip… sandwich was not good though and if you need the toilet be ready for a very steep drop so difficult for older people to go or if you have problems with mobility

    TFE and the night sky What an amazing experience. This was my second time and was every bit as good as the first. The guys are so knowledgeable and informative, you learn so much. I must do a shout out to Kim from Tenerife First Excursions who organised this for us, she is soo friendly, helpful and really knows her beautiful island and surrounding areas. We have booked a number of excursions during our visits to Tenerife and can always rely on Kim and TFE to find us amazing experiences at a great price.
