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.

    Only place i go to book excursions!Used these guys twice on my vacation and they give the best deals and everyone that works there is so lovely and welcoming! Can stay for hours chatting! Our first vacation we dealt with Matt and the second vacation we dealt with Lisa. Big thank you! We booked a lot of activity’s, think this year we did 7! As we where return customers they did us a deal which was fab! They know what there talking about and they are all clued up on each excursion! Answered all our questions and recommended exactly what we where looking for! Gave us lots of tips and advise when booking certain things. One thing I love is that they don’t scream at you when you are walking past! Like all the other excursion company’s. We even met the owner who is awesome! Had some YouTube vids up of some of the excursions which is nice to be able to see what there like. We have done pretty much every excursion with these guys and each one was spectacular and I would highly recommend! 💎

    Geweldige tour Wij hebben enorm genoten van deze tour. We hadden een heldere avond en hebben een erg mooie zonsondergang gezien. De quats zijn makkelijk te besturen en we hebben een lang stuk mogen rijden door prachtige natuur en uitzicht. Onze guides Riko en Daniel waren ontzettend aardig en behulpzaam. Ze gaven veel informatie over de omgeving en checkten regelmatig bij iedereen even in over hoe het ging. Als er iets was deden ze er gelijk wat aan. Ook was er water, snacks en champagne.We zouden deze tour zeker aanbevelen!

I wish I could give more than 5* . X

    Informative and great value A fantastic experience. I was slightly concerned we would be cornered in to buying v expensive drinks and snacks but the cafe we stopped at was very reasonably priced. Drinks started at 1 euro and a slice of delicious cake was 2 euros. The trip was really informative and the stops were well paced. I took my two boys who are 8 and 9 and they thoroughly enjoyed it and didn't get bored. We took a picnic and ye that at the longest stop. You do need warm clothes, plenty of layers but it wasn't too cold.
