Overview

Step aboard the Opera 60 for a relaxed and exclusive Whale & Dolphin Watching Cruise in Tenerife. Departing from Puerto Colón, this spacious boat carries a maximum of just 12 guests, offering a more personal experience with plenty of room to relax and enjoy Tenerife's spectacular coastline.

Cruise into the waters off South Tenerife in search of pilot whales, dolphins and other marine life living freely in their natural habitat. Tenerife is one of Europe’s leading whale watching destinations, giving you an excellent chance of seeing whales and dolphins throughout the year. As these are wild animals, sightings can never be guaranteed, making every encounter a genuine experience with nature.

After searching for whales and dolphins, you’ll stop in a beautiful bay for swimming and snorkelling. Snorkelling equipment is included, and a freshly prepared hot lunch is served on board alongside water, soft drinks, beer, white wine and cava, allowing you to relax and enjoy the Atlantic scenery.

Choose the shared 3-hour Opera 60 cruise for an intimate small-group boat trip, or contact us directly to arrange a private Opera 60 charter exclusively for your family or group. Perfect for birthdays, celebrations, hen and stag groups or special occasions, a private charter offers an unforgettable way to experience Tenerife from the sea.

The experienced crew will search for marine life while always respecting the animals and their natural environment.
