Excellent experience. Very friendly and helpful. We saw Pilot Whales and Dolphins absolutely amazing. Good value for money. Lovely swimming break and then a chilled relaxing journey back to the port. Would most definitely do it again

We will anchor in a spectacular bay, La Caleta de Adeje, classified as a site of scientific interest, due to the diversity of lava, as well as endemic plant species and different seabirds.

Amazing experience – absolutely worth it! This was such an amazing experience! The sailing trip was small and private – there were only six of us on the boat, which made it feel really special and relaxed. We were able to go out and see the whales, and along the way we learned so much about the island, the ocean, and the marine life in the area. The crew shared lots of interesting information without it ever feeling like a “tourist lecture.” We also stopped for a swim in the ocean, which was fantastic. The whole adventure lasted almost four hours, so we really felt that we got our money’s worth. At one point, a large catamaran with around 100 people, loud party music and a completely different atmosphere came up near us. That made us even happier that we had chosen the quiet sailing boat with a maximum of only 10 guests! We absolutely loved it, and the kids did too. A wonderful, relaxed and memorable way to experience the ocean and see the whales. Highly recommended!
Really nice intimate experience to see Tenerifes wildlife. We saw pilot whales, bottlenose dolphins and a hammerhead shark! Only 10 people on our tour which was lovely compared to some of the boats we saw with tons of people on board. Guide were friendly and informative and provided snacks and refreshments throughout.
Really fantastic tour where we saw pilot whales, dolphins and a hammerhead shark! Amazing
Absolutely amazing trip, saw whales dolphins, a sea turtle and loads of seabirds. Had a 6 and 10 year old with us and they were absolutely fine with it all even let them help with the sail
What a wonderful afternoon on board this sail boat. There were only 10 guests and 3 crew. We were collected from our hotel in Golf Del Sur. We used sail for some of the trip which was wonderful. Experiencing sailing as it should be and not under the engine of a catamaran. The captain was extremely knowledgeable and we were fortunate to see pilot whales and a loggerhead sea turtle. A lovely stop in a very quiet bay for a swim and snorkel. We had drinks and crisps through the trip and a baguette and cake after the swim. If you want a true sailing experience with friendly crew and not feeling it’s a machine then I highly recommend this trip. Just maybe not if you have very small children.
Very knowledgeable and skilled captain who was friendly and easy going, food was great and plentiful and we saw whales, dolphins, sea turtles and flying fish. The boat was very comfortable and felt like a really quiet, relaxed experience unlike the huge yatchs with hundreds of people on board! Very good experience, highly recommend!
What an incredible whale watching trip! The crew were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. We were lucky enough to see several whales in their natural habitat, which was truly unforgettable. The boat was comfortable, well-organised, and the views were spectacular. A fantastic experience that we would highly recommend to anyone visiting Tenerife!
The trip exceeded our expectations. We saw whales & dolphins close up. Had a swim, treated to drinks and snacks. The views were spectacular and the captain opened up the sail on our return to the port. A fantastic trip!
We had a fantastic trip with friends and would highly recommend it. We had a great captain who made sure we had a fabulous experience seeing many dolphins and pilot whales. We enjoyed a delicious lunch and drinks and will most certainly book this trip again.
We arranged pick up at our hotel but no one arrived to pick us up and then received a message to say we had failed to arrive
Great trip, nice small group. Very peaceful when sailing with engine off. We were lucky enough to see dolphins. Pick up and collection were punctual. Would recommend this over the larger (noisier) trips.
I was very happy, we liked our tour and personal experience a lot ! We saw ocean animals and enjoyed the stories about Tenerife ☺️
Such a great experience on a beautiful yacht with just 8 other people. The 2 crew were so professional and made it a perfect trip. Sailing out into the beautiful waters they were extremely attentive and worked hard to make sure we enjoyed the experience. We saw pilot whales and dolphins and their communication was great as they talked about the various coastlines we sailed past with great enthusiasm and expertise. Drinks were available from the minute we got onboard and throughout the cruise, lunch was freshly made baguettes filled with ham cheese and salad. Our 3 hour trip went by so quickly and we enjoyed it immensely. We’re back in April and will be booking this lovely trip again. Thank you for such a lovely trip.
I loved that we were very respectfull of the animals in the ocean. We had a swim and got snacks, drinks and a sandwich. I also got a very convenient transfer directly from the hotel. Thx for the lovely time on the sailing boat :)
A++++ exceeded expectations. Highly recommend. We saw lots of whales and dolphins, really lovely experience
Salvatore and Laura were amazing from start to finish. Friendly and welcoming, and Salvatore is so knowledgeable and shared wonderful insights in to Tenerife and the wildlife. We were lucky enough to see around 20 pilot whales and also a large school of dolphins (and they were jumping!), before stopping for a lovely swim and lunch. The highlight of the trip however was seeing a large loggerhead turtle on the way back. Just amazing ❤️ We couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you so much for a truly memorable day!
We always do a boat trip on holiday - this might be the best ever. Just 10 people plus 2 crew - and we passed the rammed party boats and were happy not to be on them. The wonderful Captain Salvador offered us drinks, made us feel at home and was on the radio to follow up sightings of whales and dolphins. He engaged with everyone in multiple languages and went above and beyond. We saw lots of pilot whales that swam right up to and beneath the boat - it was enchanting. He gave us great facts about the birds, fish and sea mammals we were seeing. Another great thing? We stopped a couple of times so they could fish out plastic left by less careful people at sea - a big tub, a weird thing that looked like a lamp - they knew this damaged local sea life and were doing their bit. It fit with the overall vibe of a trip that didn’t feel like a tourist churn, but generally lovely and run by people who care about where they live. We had sandwiches, beer, cava, we got a hug as we left. What a great day.
Perfect day out in the water on traditional sailing ship great small group tour informative and we found the morning a fantastic chilled trip with drinks and food especially fab carrot cake
This was an amazing trip! Saw dolphins and whales. The captain was very informative, friendly and funny and made us feel very welcome! Food was good too! Would highly recommend it!!!
Very enjoyed. The crew looked after us, we watched Dolphins and Whales in the open sea. The ship captain directed boat the way were we could see them in families. His also gave shirt brief about migration of them, and short description about animals. After we stopped near Las Gallettas where we swam in the open water with fishes. After being provided lunch and we return to the port. Thank you so much for this experience.
Great boat trip, so much more personable than the previous ones we have been on. Small groups, the host is very attentive and always making sure you’re okay. Definitely recommend if you wish to see the whales/ dolphins in a more respectful, peaceful environment.
We were collected from & returned to our hotel at no extra cost and boarded the boat with 7 others at Puerto Colon. After a short delay due to a flat battery we cruised out of the harbour and were treated to lots of information about the area and its wildlife by the extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic skipper. We spent some time watching at a respectful distance a family group of pilot whales which was wonderful. Then called close inshore behind a fish farm and saw dolphins and had a close encounter with beautiful loggerhead turtles. A spell of snorkeling amongst numerous fish in crystal clear water was followed by complimentary drinks and baguettes on board as we returned under sail to the port. A fabulous way to enjoy being out on the water and to watch and learn about the amazing sea life of the area. Excellent !
Amazing trip made extra special by Salvatore, he was knowledgable friendly and couldn’t do enough for you! Do with the money, we saw lots of dolphins and whales, given lunch and any drink we wanted the whole trip, would definitely recommend this trip! 😍
What a great experience - and excellent service. Myself and my two daughters (15/18) had a wonderful time with Salvatore and his crew. He picked us up on time at the hotel, and drove us to the Marina. A nice and comfortable sailboat, with good facilities. Salvatore told us about the animals, the Island, the Calima and the sea. He eagerly shared all his knowledge. I would reckommend this to everybody who wants a more intimate experience.
Great to be picked up and returned to our hotel. Very clear communication about pick up time etc. as well. Great to be on a small sailboat rather than some of the much larger boats. There were 8 of us on the boat so loads of space for everyone to sit or move around. The captain was clearly knowledgeable about the local wildlife and cared about them. We went out and saw a pod of 11 pilot whales resting in the sea, including one mother and a calf who he estimated was around 1 month old. We spent plenty of time watching them before then heading off for some snorkelling in a bay and enjoying included lunch. A fabulous experience all round.
Lovely crew and a relaxing experience well worth the money, would do it again in a heartbeat!!, next time
Fantastic day , Pleasant crew very informative 👍 Offered refreshments the whole trip Only a small number of people on the boat, which made it more personal, which made it a better experience
As always. Salva is the best captain! We had a lovely time and we will go again. Respectful of the ocean and the animals. Perfect.
Fabulous time. We saw whales, fish and a turtle. It was a wonderful experience and we were well looked after.
Lovely trip, we saw pilot whales close and felt the wind under our sails, Our son was also allowed to steer the boat little . Thank you
We had an amazing trip with Salvador in his boat, it was lovely to see how much he enjoys sailing and the sea!! He was so careful around the Pilot Whales, staying a respectful distance and allowing them to come to us if they wanted to. We would definitely recommend, compared to other boat trips this is a much smaller group, up to 10, so the boat did not feel overcrowded like you see on some of the big catamaran trips. With a smaller group, Salvador can also spend time talking to you about the animals you see and answering your questions. 10/10.
Really enjoyed this trip. Everyone was really accommodating, felt we got really well looked after. Fantastic boat trip. Amazing to see so many whales and the dolphins, finished nicely with a bit of snorkeling. Would recommend.
Excellent trip, friendly welcoming team on board welcome you like family. Experienced and knowledgeable on the boat and wildlife, with a wonderful respect for the marine life and environment. It is clear the team care about their domain and keep this at the forefront of their tours! Would recommend this to anyone and will return myself. Don’t book one of the big catamaran tours, they are packed like cattle. This small intimate cruise will give you a far better trip!
We loved this intimate experience. Salvador was amazing from the moment he picked us up (exactly on time) at our hotel and throughout the tour. His care of the sea and kindness to his guests was evident. We would definitely book this tour again!
From when we got picked up from our hotel, the gentlemen who turned out to be our captain for the trip was very nice and knowledgeable. The conditions where great we got to see plenty of whales / dolphins and I had a nice swim. the one thing that could improve this excursion would be new snorkelling mask as the ones on offer where old and leaked, therefore not much snorkelling could be done by anyone one in the group we was with. Apart from that it was very enjoyable experience.
The best boat trip. Extremely chilled, we saw turtles and dolphins. Had a refreshing swim in the sea. Lovely baguette and a piece of cake as well as plentiful drinks provided.
Seeing common dolphins and pilot whales and the sailing, very peaceful Skipper was very friendly, only 10 of us, would highly recommend
We had the best time on the trip, Salvador was a great host and skipper, he gave so much information on the marine life. He had a lot of knowledge and respect for the ocean. The food and drinks provided were great and overall would highly recommend this tour !
We had a great time. The crew was great. So friendly! I would suggest taking some Dramamine if you are prone to motion sickness because at times it got a little rocky. Overall, couldn’t have been better.
The captain was awesome. He was very knowledgeable and was such a kind man! The boat was just the perfect size and made the sail feel intimate.
Such a lovely team and really passionate about the wildlife. Saw pilot whales and dolphins, simple but tasty lunch. Would definitely recommend.
Amazing day on the water. Saw lots of pilot whales. Great lunch and drinks. Loved every moment. Thank you !!!!
Fantastic! The captain and his sailor were great and took very much at heart to please all the guests. We saw numerous pilot whales and a turtle. The group was very friendly too. I would highly recommend this company to all. Thanks again Salva :-)
Beautiful trip, out spotting pilot whales. The staff aboard were very knowledgeable, kind and friendly. The whole experience will make for a great memory, highly recommended. Thank you.
Unfortunately sea was too choppy to swim. But the crew attended to needs of all onboard and we got to see pilot whales and turtles. Literally only downside was no Cava lol.....brilliant trip and will be doing it again.
A very nice boat trip with a fantastic crew. We have seen many whales near the boat. The crew offers drinks and food during the trip. This was a perfect day.
Great opportunity for exploring the ocean around Tenerife. Small groups, nice crew on board. Highly recommended for every visitor.
Great trip and would do it agam the skipper was great so much unbelievable day fantastic this was a great trip.
