Excursion on a human scale to meet cetaceans - Very nice excursion. There were 7 of us on the boat, which was conducive to discussion. The guide was passionate, attentive to everyone's satisfaction and well-being. We saw Pilot Whales as a family up close (young on one side and parents in the hunting phase - unique moment) and bottlenose dolphins. The information provided is varied (interesting geology section on the lava flows constituting the cliffs of Los Gigantes, of course on the population of the marine fauna of the Canaries as well as its habits, including nice anecdotes on squid, and also some aspects interesting histories of the economic development of Tenerife since the 19th century). We returned delighted, and ready to leave. Long live ecology.

Learning by doing at the sea! - Fantastic journey with Captain Javier Rivero. Besides the pleasure of a nice sailing day, watching wales and dolphins, the most interesting thing was the lesson that Javier give to us explaining the heritage of the island: culture, lands, soils, animals, the sea… amazing!
