Description
Enjoy an unforgettable experience with this **private eco whale and dolphin watching tour** in the south of Tenerife, departing from the charming Puerto de Las Galletas. Sail through crystal clear waters aboard a comfortable and environmentally friendly boat on a journey designed to offer you intimate and responsible contact with nature.
From the moment you arrive, your expert tour guide will welcome you and introduce you to the principles of marine ecotourism, explaining how this activity respects the cetaceans and their environment. As the boat moves away from the coast, you will enter one of the richest habitats in the Atlantic, where tropical pilot whales and bottlenose dolphins are regular residents throughout the year. With a little luck, you may also spot sea turtles or even migratory whales depending on the season.
During the tour, sustainable sailing practices are applied: the boat slows down near the animals, minimum distances are respected, and all sightings are made with the utmost care so as not to disturb their natural behavior. Your tour guide will tell you interesting facts about each species, provide information about the Canary Islands' marine ecosystem, and answer all your questions.
In addition to the sightings, you will have time to relax on board, sunbathe, and enjoy complimentary cold drinks (water, soft drinks, and beer). On longer routes, we will make a stop so you can swim or snorkel in a protected cove, surrounded by calm waters and marine life. All necessary equipment is available on board at no additional cost.
This tour is ideal for those looking for an authentic, safe, and environmentally friendly activity. It is perfect for couples, families, or small groups who value nature and want to experience a unique adventure without rushing, noise, or crowds.
Departing from the picturesque Port of Las Galletas, this tour combines adventure, sustainability, and relaxation in one of the most beautiful spots on the island. No previous experience is necessary: just come with a desire to discover the sea, learn, and be amazed by the beauty of cetaceans in the wild.
