You'll depart from Puerto Colon at 11:00AM at which point you will go in search of whales and dolphins. During your 5-hour excursion you will visit the cliff of Los Gigantes, as your boat sails to an area where there is a greater possibility to see pilot whales.

Step aboard a charming goleta árabe (Arabian schooner) and travel back in time as you set sail from Puerto Colón. This traditional wooden boat combines old-world charm with modern comfort.

Cruise along the stunning southwestern coast of Tenerife, where short-finned pilot whales and bottlenose dolphins are frequently spotted. Your expert crew will help you spot them – always respectfully, following friendly guidelines.

We’ll then anchor near the majestic cliffs of Los Gigantes, rising 600 metres from the sea. Here, you’ll have the chance to swim or snorkel in crystal-clear water.

Back onboard, enjoy a freshly prepared lunch served with wine, beer, and soft drinks. Sit back and soak in the ocean views as the schooner gently carries you back to port.
