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.

    we wanted to leave a separate note towards kim as she is absolutely amazing, we saw this excursion hut on tik tok & came over to see if for ourselves, we booked night star gazing & the royal delfin, she didn’t bribe us like some of the other excursion huts do, she treats us like friends not customers, she knows how to have a laugh & we will without doubt be recommending this & returning potentially this holiday, there’s no pressure or anything, the most welcoming excursion hut i know, thank you kim we love you, from tia number one, tia number two, & jody :)

    Water fun galore! What an incredible experience from start to finish! We dealt with the lovely Laura who couldn’t have been more friendly and knowledgable on what we could do as a family during our time in Tenerife. Our younger boys loved the jet skis, adrenaline-fueled fun was had all around! We also booked Siam Park and a whale watching trip through Tenerife First Excursions. We come every year and now know who we can rely on for great service and the best excursions! Great company, and Laura is an incredible asset!
