“A must-do in Tenerife - The most wonderful trip seeing Pilot whales in their natural habitat. Capt Guy was a joy to listen to, his marine knowledge was fascinating. He couldn’t have been a better skipper. Lovely fresh fruit and sandwiches, beers, cava and soft drinks were unlimited. This was our 4th time with this company and I highly recommend it.” - Reviewed on 2024-11-02

With refreshments and snacks provided, it’s a delightful way to unwind and soak in the island’s natural beauty.

“Sunset trip - I can hugely recommend this trip, Picked up from our hotel, Laura welcomed us on board along with Andreas the Captain. We were offered drinks throughout the trip, Laura told us information on the whales that we saw, so much respect given to the whales by the captain (slowing down and waiting). There were about 15 people on board so not crowded, a lovely stop at the beach area for guests to swim and snorkel or just enjoy the tapas and drinks socialising with other guests. Dropped back at the hotel at the end. What an amazing experience, worth the expense!” - Reviewed on 2024-12-10

The Tenerife sunset catamaran tour offers an unforgettable experience as you sail into the evening, surrounded by the tranquil beauty of the Canary Islands. With a glass of fine wine or cava in hand, you’ll find yourself captivated by the stunning views and the soothing rhythm of the ocean.

“Perfect Birthday Treat - We arranged a surprise trip for my daughter’s 30th Birthday and it did not disappoint. Lauren looked after us brilliantly and everything was perfect from the pick up at hotel, the beautiful boat and the trip itself. We were so blessed to see two whale pods so close up. There were about 14 people on the boat so it was quite intimate and we got chatting with many of the guests. The drinks flowed throughout the trip and the food was just what we needed. The sunset did not disappoint nor did the slow journey home via the beautiful twinkly coastline. Overall the experience was one of the best things we’d ever done. 10/10” - Reviewed on 2024-11-11
