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.

    Fabulous We had the best afternoon after Ross in the Los Cristianos branch persuaded us to take the 3 hour all inclusive yacht charter to see the whales and dolphins. The skipper was really informative and friendly and made the whole afternoon a great experience! We saw some pilot whales really close to us in the water which was a great bonus! Thanks Ross for recommending this it was well worth it!

    Absolutely amazing!! We couldn’t be more grateful for the service we received from Kim! I first saw Tenerife’s first excursions advertised on TikTok, we took a trip down there to get some help on booking a few things to do on our holiday! It’s mine and my partners first holiday together, and my first holiday since being a child, it’s the first time we’ve not had our parents to sort these sort of things for us! We booked loads of different trips! 3h Dolphin and whale watching boat, a try dive which me and my partner were both a little skeptical and worried about but Kim helped us so much and reassured us and even checked in afterwards to see how we found it! We also booked Loro parque and Siam park and buggy’s! Kim has been absolutely amazing and so friendly I couldn’t recommend her enough! Thank you so much again for all your help we really appreciate it! 10/10 service and friendliness

    Mike and Ross at Tenerife First Excursions are absolutely fantastic - they are both friendly and professional.

    Both Mike and Ross speak perfect English and Spanish. They really do their best to find fun activities at fair prices. I'm delighted with the customer service experience.

    I'd also like to give a special mention to Matty for being a great manager. Matty always prioritises customer satisfied, so I am confident that if you book an activity through Mike, Ross or Matty, you will have a lot of fun at a fair price with a positive customer experience.

    I will definitely come back to Tenerife First Excursions when I am back in Tenerife!

    Aanrader! Echt een aanrader om te doen! Naast het sterrenkijken ook zeer interessant om het eiland te verkennen en de leuke weetjes te leren kennen. Helaas hadden wij het op onze dag niet erg getroffen met het weer, waardoor het erg bewolkt was en we uiteindelijk niet de zonsondergang konden zien en heel weinig sterren. Daarnaast deden ze we wel alles aan om een plek op de bergen te vinden waar het minder bewolkt was, alleen helaas geen geluk. Maar alsnog zeker een aanrader om te doen!

    Great holiday We used Lisa from Tenerife First Excursions for a whale watching tour, aqua land tickets and a boat trip. Lisa went above and beyond for our family ensuring we had everything we needed and organised our excursions on her day off. She was very informative and helpful. Would highly recommend

    Experiencia inolvidable Patrick, el capitán, hizo que la experiencia fuese mucho más “exclusiva” ya que se encargó de tener todo tipo de detalles durante las tres horas a bordo de Galatea. Pudimos ver una familia de calderones y darnos un baño en el puertito, una zona con aguas cristalinas perfecta para hacer snorkel. ¡Totalmente recomendable!
