The South-west coast of Tenerife is a privileged place for watching whales/dolphins in their natural habitat. There are two resident populations: the pilot whale and the bottlenose dolphin. We will anchor in a cristal clear water cove where you can relax laying down on our cushions on the spacious decks or in the nets. You can also have a swim and explore the underwater world snorkelling. The water temperature varies from about 18ºC in winter to 26ºC in summer. Our crew will be at your disposition during the whole trip and they will do their best to make it a wonderful experience. They will also serve you a meal and drinks in the shaded seating area (included in the price & vegetarian food available on request with your reservation). Afterwards we make our way back towards the harbour sailing along the west-coast of the island whilst you chill and enjoy the views.

- 34didemd0 contributionsAmazing experience!!!Amazing experience!! Crew was amazing, specially Ismail was really helpful and sweet. Catamaran was also really good and clean! I would recommend this tour to everyone!!Written May 10, 2023
- NiamhJ20010 contributionsDouble Jet Ski SafariWe recently did the double jet ski one hour safari on our holiday to Tenerife. The whole experience was amazing, not something we had ever looked into before but after our experience with this company we would do it again in a heart beat. Right from the beginning the staff were friendly and chatty. We were then taken out for the bikes in the ocean where we were shown how to work them and made sure we were comfy before setting off - the instructor was amazing, friendly, chatty and had a good laugh with us! We then went on our way, around the ocean - totally amazing experience and company would highly recommend to anyone coming to Tenerife on holiday! They also take lots of photos when you are out on the jet skis which is a fab touch to the whole experienceWritten August 9, 2022

- Gemma D0 contributionscatamaran trip - 3 hoursWhat an amazing 3 hour boat trip. 5 star service all day. There was 10 of us on the catamaran which made it more personal. This particular boat trip would of taken 12 people max which is perfect for a relaxing time. The two guys (sorry I have forgotten names) were so lovely. My daughter was so pleased to see a family of whales too, truly breathtaking in their natural habitat. Thoroughly enjoyed and we have already decided to do it next time we visit. also food was excellent and a wide selection of drinks available all included in the price. Thank you ☺️Written October 24, 2019

- JOHN V0 contributionsGreat Catamaran ExcursionWe booked Atlántico Catamaran tour 35 ft -12 passengers 3 hours with nice paella lunch and drinks out of puerta colon near Los Americanos to see whales, stop & swim at secluded beach and ride along coast - the crew of Alex & William were very friendly and informative. We we able to get very close to a family of pilot whales...we stopped near a secluded beach and did some snorkeling however there was not much to see but the water was very refreshing. I definitely recommend this excursion. Enjoy!Written September 26, 2019
- Wauter940 contributionsGreat tour with great people.The overall experience with this tour was really great. From the first minute the captain and its host were very welcoming and nice. After a short briefing of what we would be doing the upcomming hours it was all about relaxing and finding some sea life. They try everything they can to get as close as possible to the animals while respecting their environment. After the whales we headed to the coast line for a nice lunch and some swimming. After that you follow the coast where they will show you some very special spots. During the entire tour they will tell you about what you see. We loved going on a tour with them and its worth the money.Written September 24, 2019
- RP_SB_Sussex0 contributionsThe best ever...Booked through Dave outside Zero Gravity down at the port, great advice and has the best prices. Included in the price was collection and drop off which was great, no taxis or walking required. Warm welcome, we was greater by a lady with a beaming smile that showed us to the boat and checked our tickets. Great yacht, best yacht that I have been on for this type of excursion. The vessel was easy to navigate while on water and had great seating up from with nets over the bow of the catamaran, large covered area at the back for those wanting shade. It also felt like a sailing boat rather than a motorised yacht. While we was out the we managed to spot 6x pilot wales right next to the boat, at no time did I feel the captain was putting pressure on the whales and it was a magical moment when them swam under the bow. We also managed to spot a turtle who seemed to be enjoying our company as much as we did his. Food and drinks, chicken, rice and bread which was well cooked and plenty of it, plenty of soft drinks but also provided cava for those that wanted a few bubbles. Snorkelling, we anchored up in a bay that used to be an old fishing bay and had around 45mins snorkelling, for those that didn’t have snorkels they were provided, never felt pressured to go in or have to hurry. While we was in the water they fed the fish providing a brilliant experience for all those in the water, I had a go pro and managed to catch some great footage. Staff, George and Alex.... 1st class. Really brilliant, very welcoming, spoken fluent English. Genuinely cared we had a great experience and when my daughter felt ill they were at hand to reassure and provide a bag or two to help her. They were informative all the way and caring to the environment and marine life, initially they thought the turtle may have been injured and was preparing to bring it on board to check it out and bring it back to shore for help if required. Can not recommend this company and crew enough, I have been on these trips before and while they have been ok I felt this was the best excursion of this kind.Written August 13, 2019

Guillermo, our skipper, took us (group of 9) on a whale watching tour and it was amazing. The catamaran was clean and offered plenty of space in the shade and sun. Two big fridges provided us with cold drinks at all times. You can turn up the speakers pretty loud but they have to be turned off near the whales.
Guillermo managed to bring us near the whales and dolphins as well which stayed beside and under our boat for quiet a while. It was the closest I've ever gotten to them. Afterwards we went for a swim in two different bays and even had the chance to jump off a very nice cliff.
If you're searching for an extraordinary activity and just want to relax, book a tour, it pays. I definitely would do another tour with Guillermo. He was a very kind and qualified skipper!
Thank you for such an amazing time.

We had a trip with sailors William and Alex, they were very friendly and wanted the best for everyone. The trip was really relaxed and we saw the “grienden” in the water during the trip. After we saw them we went to a spot where we could swim and snorkle for 45 minutes.
It was a real awesome boat trip.

I’ve been on quite a few catamaran trips in my life time and I have to say this was one of the best. We had a lovely calm sea and managed to see so many dolphins, and a rare opportunity to see a fake killer whale.
The staff were so friendly and provided a lot information about the area we sailed through.
The catamaran is a lot smaller than the previous ones I’ve been on before, but there was loads of space at the front of the boat.
If I was to go out again, I wouldn’t hesitate in choosing these guys again.

A true family adventure with 9 of us on board: age range 6 to 80 years old. A truely memorable trip from viewing pilot whales- ( the whales swam very close to the boat. The crew were respectful and mindful of the marine life's wellbeing at all times) to snorkelling, cruising and eating super paella. Thank you Alex and William you were fantastic. We will definitely be back.

Dean the sales rep advised us about this trip, and he was spot on! There was a group of 11 of us so we had a private charter- we were greeted by captain George and Alex who were professional and friendly. We saw some pilot whales and the staff were very knowledgeable and respectful of the creatures, we stopped for lunch (which was top quality) and swam in the sea. This trip was amazing- so much so we’ve booked it again before we go home. The children in our group ranging from 17-5 years loved it so much and had so much fun! It is safe to say this is this has to be the best catamaran trip we have been on.

A great experience with a great team. Thanks to Raul for his sympathy and these explanations. A magical moment shared in complete privacy, 11 people on board, far from the big tourist boats. Swimming, dolphin, snacks and drinks. Everything was there. We will come back.

Hi, can this catamaran be privately hired for only our group of 10 people?
