These are very popular activities on the island (especially in high tourist season), so I recommend you buy them online so you don't run out on the date you want to do the excursion. It's easy, quick and convenient!

From approximately43 € you can join a 2 hour cruise around the island's waters to see whales and dolphins from a cruise ship. Although you'll be sailing with a large group, this is the ideal excursion if you don't want to miss this natural spectacle but your budget is tight and you don't have much time on the island either.

You'll set off from Los Cristianos harbour in the south of Tenerife, from where you'll have a privileged view of Mount Teide for photo opportunities. Then you'll head out into the Atlantic in search of dolphins, pilot whales, fin whales, turtles and all kinds of sea creatures that come your way.

So that you don't miss any details during the cruise, the group will be accompanied by a professional guide who will help you to identify the animals you see and will tell you lots of interesting facts about them so that you can get to know them a little better.
