Board a private catamaran from Costa Adeje for a 3‑hour luxury charter focused on whales, dolphins, and a swim stop. Small groups, snorkel gear, tapas and on‑board photos make this an intimate Atlantic experience.

The catamaran slips from the marina and the island falls away: a ribbon of white surf, volcanic cliffs, and the blue of the Atlantic stretching to the horizon. On a private 3‑hour cruise out of Costa Adeje you trade shore noise for seabird calls and the sudden surge of dolphins cutting the bow wake. The vessel is intimate — max six guests — so sightings feel personal and the crew tailors the route to where the animals are most active.

Arrive early to dock

Use a waterproof phone case or dry bag for cameras and phones; the crew takes photos but you’ll want your own backups.
