“Efficient and as promised! An amazing time with an amazing crew! The day was perfect, we left pretty much on time (come on people, when a boat says it’s leaving at 10:30 get there on time!) pack light bc everything including shoes is stored away while in motion. We saw whales as soon as we got far enough out. Everyone was silent, it was breathtaking! Then the bar opened up, fresh beer on tap and they gave us simple sandwiches. We went to a beautiful location and got to swim and off the boat many times. The music was also great. Completely worthwhile and a must-do in Tenerife if you’re…”

Review of Tenerife’s five-hour whale-watching catamaran tour, with wildlife sightings, swimming, lunch, drinks, and practical booking advice.
“The boat was comfortable and the crew were great but I have been on far more interesting and engaging whale watching experiences. We did see a school of pilot wales but it seemed like that one sighting was “enough” for the trip and we did not attempt to fond more. I was disappointed that we did not sail during the cruise, only motored when there was plenty of wind. Apparently, part of the rigging needed to be repaired.”

“we did the afternoon whale watching cruise it was thought was so two of our four people backed out preferring to go milder seas it was hard to see any whales because it was so choppy we managed to find one who put on a bit of a display for us sadly all I managed to catch on my phone was four splashes the whales were just too fast for me couldn't hear the commentary over the booming seas The boat was adequate and seemed stable enough even in the larger waves so we could go quite a way out to find the whale activity”
