    Really helpful Many hanks to Sarah who helped us with this trip. We needed a calm boat due to recent surgery so she suggested the catamaran. We plumped for the 4.5hr trip and were not disappointed. She also told us how to get there and back and where to get taxis and buses from as we were too late for their transport, but it wasn’t a problem. The trip itself was great. Beautiful scenery, pilot whales, dolphins and flying fish and a chance to swim in the sea.

    Great boat trip - we saw the whales & dolphins We had a lovely time in the Opera 60, unlike other boat trips there was loads of space and only about 14 guests. We got to see the whales & dolphins and swim in a lovely bay. The Captain was knowledgeable and a little eccentric, he provided drinks and served a lovely lunch of chicken, rice & salad. Having done other boat trips in Tenerife, this is my favourite due to it being so intimate - other boats can pack you in like sardines. This boat on the choppy waves did make some a little sea sick! I’d do this trip again and again :0)

    Respectful, passionate and full of knowledge Our captain ‘Guy’ was pleasantly crazy but very respectful to us and most of all the ocean’s wildlife. It seems to be a bit of a rat race of yachts and catamarans for the first sighting before heading off to snorkel. But we decided to take our time, minimize engine use and luckily saw a baby dolphin and some pilot whales, all from a distance safer to them. Guy told us a lot about the island, was extremely passionate about ocean life and our whole eco system. We went on the 4pm trip and were ready to come in, but would have loved a longer trip if budget and time allowed. Be mindful that you may not get a sighting and proactive about communicating what you’d really like out of your sailing.
