About
We leave from the port of Los Gigantes and begin our Daily Charter with a small group of 8 people maximum. We navigate out to open water in search for dolphins and whales, if the wind conditions are good we will use the sails. During the 3 hour charter we will offer complementary drinks, freshly made sandwiches and make a stop to take a dip in the water to go snorkeling in a beautiful small bay. For everyone that had a food allergie, we are offering gluten free, lactose free, vegetarian and vegan options on board. We just need to know this when you are making your reservation to make sure we can give you the same service as everyone else.

Got picked up from our hotel at the agreed time and after a short trip to the harbour - we were greated at the ship.
After a short introduction we left the harbour and sailed towards some deeper water to look for whales. We were not too positive, because there were a lot of haze and waters were not calm.
Long story short - we saw a bunch of pilot whales, dolphins and even a big turtle.
The waters were too rough for swimming, but we had a great time without.
Good sandwich and drinks.
I would like to recommend it to everyone. One of the best thing was the small groups that they do. Much nicer than the ships/tours you see with 50 people and someone yelling information through a speaker.
Keep up the good work!

After taking a trip in August, on my return in October,I decided book again with my daughter and sister.
First class service again and had a pod of dolphins swim with the boat with their baby! Was an awesome experience.
Looking forward to coming again soon.

What a wonderful day. Very professional crew and authentic sea lovers. I couldn't have ask you for more. Wild life it can't be guaranteed but you can increase a lot the chances of spotting beautiful marine life when you go with the right people. We spotted few dolphins just outside the marina and than we changed the "rumbo" to catch up with a very large group if pilot whales and dolphins and spend half an hour just enjoying their company. Such a beautiful sight..Plus Los Gigantes are really stunning Thanks a lot guys.. Alsi for sorting out my way back to the hotel. Definitely a must do

Super fun and beautiful boat trip of 3 hours, very enthusiastic and fun crew! Everything was relaxed, lots of fun information and facts on a very nice boat for a small group. Saw a lot of whales and many beautiful small fish near the cliff while snorkeling. If you go on a boat trip in Tenerife, this is really the best!

Fantastic trip with Third Element from Los Gigantes Marina. Perfect weather Jaime and David were such great hosts with lots to show and tell about the sea life. Saw plenty of pilot whales and finished off with a swim under the cliffs, sandwich, beer and back to the marina.
Thanks for a lovely trip

We had a lovely trip with Jaime and Eileen. We saw schools of pilot whales and spotted dolphins and had a swim before lunch. Masks and snorkels are available, plus they have a warm shower and you can go below to change. We're already booked to go again next week with our adult kids!

We highly recommend choosing this company. The staff is competent and friendly, Jamie and Anna are very nice and funny. The boat is well looked after and the sandwiches are delicious. Being able to see dolphins and whales in total respect of their habitat is unparalleled. Congratulations again guys, keep it up!!💪💪

We booked with this lovely company for a trip for my husbands birthday. Not only do they have the most beautiful boat they are also incredibly nice, helpful, professional people. I had a number of special requests... I have restricted mobility, it was my husbands birthday, he's gluten free... Nothing an issue and dealt with brilliantly through all communication and on the day of our trip. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Can we bring a child? (aged 7) are there life jackets provided for children? Would he be allowed to do the snorkelling?
Written February 20, 2023
Est-ce qu’il est facile/possible de faire cette excursion avec des enfants en bas âges ? (9 mois, 2 et 3 ans). Je pense surtout aux coins d’ombres sur le bateau et à la sécurité (barrières)

Hello!
We are planning a trip to Tenerife in early October. We would like to rent a yacht with a captain for a few hours. Please can you tell us if this is possible and how much it would cost?
Written August 13, 2019
Bonjour,
J'aimerais savoir si la température début janvier est propice à cette excursion et baignade ?
De plus l'équipage parle t-il français ?
Merci d'avance
Written December 10, 2018
Bonjour Laurie
Je m'appelle Jaime Je suis capitaine et propriétaire de Third Element, je parle assez français pour nous expliquer et nous comprendre pendant l'excursion et nous travaillons avec de nombreux clients français. Mon français écrit est très mauvais parce que j'ai appris le français pour parler aux gens, c'est pourquoi j'ai aidé à traduire. En janvier, la température est généralement clémente toute l'année, vous aurez probablement besoin d'une petite veste s'il fait nuageux la journée mais si le soleil se lève, ce sera très agréable. En ce qui concerne la plongée en apnée, l'eau sera plus froide aux alentours de 18 degrés, le minimum qui est défini ici. Salutations et pour toute question, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter
