What to expect

You'll board a small vessel with no more than a handful of fellow travellers and a biologist guide who reads the water for cetacean activity. The 2.5-hour journey follows the Costa Adeje coastline, with your guide explaining marine life behaviour, migration patterns, and local conservation challenges as you go. Sightings aren't guaranteed—wild animals keep their own schedule—but the guides' knowledge transforms the experience whether you encounter whales, dolphins or simply learn how to read the ocean yourself. Expect a working boat focused on observation rather than spectacle.

Good to know
