Enjoy this whale and dolphin-watching tour, and swim and snorkel around the beautiful landscapes and crystal-clear waters of Los Gigantes, in western Tenerife.

The warm waters near Los Gigantes, in Tenerife, are the perfect spot to go looking for not only whales, but also dolphins, sea turtles, and other incredible types of marine wildlife! On this whale and dolphin-watching tour from Los Gigantes, you'll get to spend an amazing 3 hours exploring the Atlantic Ocean around Tenerife and searching for these beautiful creatures.

Departing from the port of Los Gigantes, you'll begin your whale and dolphin-watching tour from Los Gigantes by sailing towards the open sea. Search for dolphins, sea turtles, and no less than 21 different cetacean species such as bottlenose dolphins, sperm whales, mantas, tunas, humpback whales, and the shy beaked whale and shortfin pilot whales, that might swim by right next to you, depending on the time of the year on which you take this tour.

During the three-hour charter, the crew will offer you drinks like wine, beer, soda, and juices, so you can relax and enjoy the stunning view of Los Gigantes as you try to spot the amazing animals you've come to see. Now, since they are wild animals in their natural habitat, there is never a 100% guarantee that you'll be able to observe whales, dolphins, or any other animal, but your expert guide will take you to the places where you will most likely see them and will do their best to make your whale watching expedition in Tenerife, a successful one.

Once you reach the right place, a beautiful small bay off Los Gigantes cliffs, you'll be able to take a break, dip into the water, and go snorkeling! Your instructor will have the essential snorkeling equipment, but if you want to bring your own, you can.

The south of Tenerife is considered one of the best places in the world to see dolphins and pilot whales, so don't hesitate to book your whale and dolphin-watching tour from Los Gigantes. It's an experience you'll never forget!

Superbe croisière. Nos deux skippers étaient très gentils et aux petits soins, ils fournissent aussi beaucoup d'informations sur les animaux et le site. Le voilier est très agréable et permet de rester à l'ombre si besoin.
