GRAN CANARIA · DOLPHIN & WHALE WATCHING CRUISES
Pilot whales and bottlenose dolphins live in this channel year-round, so the question is not season, it is boat. These 13 differ on size, harbour and how long they stay out — sailing catamarans keep the engines off, the big cats include lunch, and the small boats get closer to the water.

“PLUS: +The activity was really nice. We were able to see a few dolphins, flying fish and a turtle. + Free non-alcoholic drinks onboard and possibility to buy beers + 3 hours ride MINUS: - We spent most of the ride looking for dolphins and we only watched them for a few minutes. - We made a stop for swimming (which is great). Unfortunately as it wasn’t mention on the activity description, we didn’t bring swimsuits. - In the description of the activity, it is said that the guides will provide details about the marine life. It didn’t happen at all. No information was given.”

“Es hat alles super funktioniert. Mir wurde per Bild mitgeteilt wo mein Abholort ist. Shuttle hat super funktioniert. Wir haben tatsächlich einen Schwarm Delphine beobachten können. Es waren viele und die sind die ganze zeit um unser Boot geschwommen. Auf dem Rückweg konnten wir noch im Meer schwimmen gehen. Das Personal war super freundlich. Achtung an alle die leicht Seekrank werden oder schwach auf den Beinen sind. Das Boot kann echt extrem wackeln. Ich habe mich tierisch gefreut die Tiere zu sehen. Vielen Dank dafür ! Es war großartig!.”

“An absolutely fantastic time - the guide & captain were both lovely. Obviously seeing wild animals on these kind of trips is never a given, and despite the conditions of the weather and sea being good, a few hours in and it wasn’t looking likely. However right at the end of the trip after snorkelling and seeing lots of fish, we zoomed in the other direction to the port and found a pod of 5 or so dolphins that a few other boats had also spotted and were watching! It was just magical. And the small boat meant we all had an incredible view to sit and watch the beautiful…”

“Réservation faite en ligne. Absence d’explication que le trajet était en 2 temps. Donc après le tour pour voir les dauphins, nous sommes sortis du catamaran avec nos bracelets et la guide ne nous a pas dit que nous devions rester à bord et que le catamaran allait repartir pour faire la suite. Tout était en anglais. donc avons payé 208 euros pour la moitié de l’activité. nous n’avons pas fait le tour bateau banane et la possibilité de profiter des masques et tubas. Donc énorme déception par le manque d’explication clair du déroulé de l’activité.”
Every kind of day on the island, and the best of each.
