Overview

Step aboard the traditional Peter Pan boat in Los Cristianos and enjoy a respectful whale and dolphin watching cruise along Tenerife’s stunning south coast.

With a maximum of 60 passengers on board, this tour offers more space and a more comfortable experience than many crowded whale watching excursions. The boat’s low decks, close to sea level, provide excellent views of the ocean and fantastic opportunities to spot dolphins and resident pilot whales in their natural habitat.

During the 2-hour cruise, our multilingual guide will share fascinating insights about Tenerife’s marine wildlife, local cetacean population, and coastline.

Weather and sea conditions permitting, we will make a short swimming stop of approximately 15 minutes in a beautiful coastal area.

Our experienced crew follows responsible whale watching guidelines, ensuring a respectful approach that does not disturb the animals’ natural behaviour.

This tour is perfect for couples, families, and small groups looking for an authentic whale and dolphin watching experience in Tenerife.

Activity itinerary

Los Cristianos

  • 50m
Your adventure begins aboard our iconic Peter Pan boat. Departing from Los Cristianos, we will cruise along Tenerife’s south coast in search of the resident whales and dolphins that inhabit these waters year-round. As we set sail, our experienced guide will welcome you on board, provide a brief safety introduction, and explain what to expect during this 2-hour cruise. Relax and enjoy the journey as you take in the stunning coastal scenery, watch for whales and dolphins in their natural habitat, and, weather and sea conditions permitting, enjoy a refreshing swim stop in the Atlantic Ocean.

Playa de las Americas

  • 40m
After departing from Los Cristianos Harbour and enjoying a relaxing cruise along Tenerife’s south coast, we will begin our search for the resident pilot whales that are frequently found in these waters. As you observe these remarkable animals in their natural habitat, our knowledgeable guide will share fascinating insights about their behaviour, biology, and the unique marine ecosystem that makes Tenerife one of the best whale-watching destinations in Europe.

Bahía

  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
As we make our way back towards the coast, you will have the opportunity to enjoy a refreshing swim in the Atlantic Ocean. Guests can enter the water directly from the boat, either from the main deck or, for the more adventurous, from the upper deck – a unique experience that only a few whale-watching boats in Tenerife can offer. Please note that the swimming stop is always subject to weather and sea conditions, with the safety of our passengers remaining our highest priority at all times.

Los Cristianos

  • 10m
At the end of the tour, we will return to Los Cristianos Harbour. As we approach the marina, our guide will conclude the experience with a brief recap of the marine wildlife spotted during the cruise and the highlights of your journey along Tenerife’s south coast. We hope you leave with unforgettable memories of your whale and dolphin watching adventure in Tenerife.
