Accessible Whale Watching with Get Holiday in Arona

Along the sun-drenched southern coast of Tenerife, the municipality of Arona offers a distinctive gateway to the Atlantic’s marine giants. Home to Get Holiday’s unique offering—the only wheelchair-accessible whale watching boat in the region—this experience marries the rugged beauty of the Canary Islands with remarkable inclusivity. For three hours, guests can cruise Tenerife’s vibrant waters aboard a vessel purpose-built to provide unimpeded access, creating an opportunity few others in the archipelago currently offer.

The waters off Arona teem with cetaceans year-round, but it’s the playful dolphins and majestic whales that draw most to Get Holiday’s trips. The boat’s small group size enhances the intimacy of the encounter, allowing for personalized guidance and fewer crowds. Beyond spotting the humpbacks and pilot whales that frequent the area, adventurers can take a refreshing dip in the Atlantic, invigorated by the surrounding natural beauty.

Tenerife’s southern coast is characterized by volcanic cliffs and clear, deep waters rich in marine biodiversity. The sea conditions generally favor smooth sailing, but the shifting Atlantic winds occasionally challenge even the most experienced skippers. This blend of accessibility and thrill positions Get Holiday as a standout operator in Tenerife’s outdoor recreation scene, combining meaningful wildlife connection with careful attention to guest needs.

With its inclusive ethos, tight-knit group atmosphere, and prime location at Arona’s coastline, this whale watching adventure promises both awe-inspiring wildlife encounters and an approachable, welcoming outdoor experience. Whether you have mobility considerations or simply seek a more personal marine adventure, this is an exceptional way to engage with the wild Atlantic surrounding Tenerife.
