    A great trip, only limited people on the boat so plenty of room. The crew were amazing, friendly and informative as well as the regular offer of drinks. We saw Dolphins, Whales and a bonus turtle then had time for swimming and snorkelling. Lots of trip offers when you walk around but would highly recommend booking this one instead

    A lovely morning trip out into the straits between Los Cristianos and La Gomera on the Bahriyeli. We spotted plenty of whales in their natural habitat. The crew were very knowledgeable about the different species and very protective of their habitat. There was no chasing involved and the boat sat quietly as we watched the wildlife swimming around us.
    A really good two hour trip, highly recommended if you're not bothered about getting a meal or having a bit of swimming time.

    We had a great time on this trip. Everything was arranged very well with the pick up and stops. We saw a wonderful sunset and really enjoyed watching the stars and seeing some cool things through the telescope. The stargazing itself and Kierans explanations were the highlight without a doubt.
    The dinner was not very necessary in my opinion and wasn't anything super special in terms of food or location (just some meat, bread, potato, tomato and a piece of cake) but it was filling and didn't take up that much time.
    Highly recommend this tour.

    We had the most incredible time on the Whale Watching Eco-Adventure with John this morning. He is unbelievably knowledgable, passionate, and welcoming, but more importantly, he was respectful, patient and kind to the marine life. His knowledge and resect for the animals paid off, with multiple sightings of Pilot Whale pods, including nursery groups of mothers and their tiny calves, which was incredible to see. He did not chase the whales, and we were able to observe from a reasonable distance with the boat engine turned off, for the whales to move around, undisturbed, as they pleased. At one point, the whales approached the boat, swimming underneath us (of their own accord) which gave us an incredible, non-intrusive opportunity to see the whales up close. He also used a hydrophone, which enabled us to hear the Pilot Whales communicating. There was a reasonable swell and it was fairly choppy at points, but John handled the conditions with ease, frequently checking in to see if we were happy and comfortable. John stopped at one point to scoop a plastic bag out of the water, to prevent turtles confusing it for jelly fish. I cannot rate this trip highly enough, and we will certainly be going out with John again in the future. Thank you John!

    I am always somewhat apprehensive when I book a tour, expecting that I’ll be part of a large coach group etc but I needn’t have been in this case. We were transported in a small minibus that was very comfortable with a very attentive and knowledgeable guide. It was great value for money. I would thoroughly recommend the tour.

    Amazing crew and saw so many dolphins and whales! We also learned about them on the trip. Totally worth it and one of our best parts of our Tenerife trip. The swim was incredible too

    There are many options for companies to take you on a trip so to me what differentiates them is the people. We encountered some windy conditions and the skipper was very professional and made us feel at ease. He cancelled the trip which was absolutely the right thing to do. We then rebooked and it was amazing. Our safety was paramount and they took into account the 2 younger children on the boat.

    The trip itself is fantastic so definitely worth a trip out to hopefully see Pilot Whales (we did) and the cutest little dolphins. The snorkel was great fun too.

    Best in Tenerife, without a doubt - thank you.

    We booked an excursion for dolphin/whale watching with Tony during our holiday in Tenerife. We had a brilliant experience, Tony is a very competent skipper and very knowledgable about the area and the sea. We set off to see animals and were lucky to see quite a few dolphins. Tony then provided us with drinks and selection of cured meats, cheese, and omelette whilst we headed towards the cliffs and coves. We had a swim and snorkel in the ocean before heading back to the marina. Would definitely recommend and will book again when back in the area.

    Took a trip out on the 18th of february this year, and it was really good!
    The fishing is tough at the moment, but gavin worked his socks off to put us on the fish, with pink dentex being caught on the deck with the inline squid rigs, and deep fishing using the electric reel we caught rabbit fish around 1,200ft down on the deck!
    We started off on the trolling rigs for the tuna/ wahoo etc which were unproductive - again no reflection on the captains abilities … fishing is poor at the moment! - Anyway …. We then moved onto the deck fishing,and the fishing really took off!
    He’s a proper captain, knows his stuff and the waters he fishes .. anybody coming from the uk to Tenerife and want a day out on the boat - get on this man!
    Reasonable prices, he’s not afraid to cover some ground, we literally covered from los gigantes right down the coast to the lighthouse at punta ! .. literally the whole of the south side coast!
    Stunning just for the views !
    I’m coming back at the end of April 24 and will definitely be using him again!
    His boat is clean and serviceable and meets all of Tenerife/ spains maritime sea laws and rules - he’s that open and honest we had a good chat about it as to how it varies to uk rules at sea etc.
    I will say …. Don’t expect a boat that is “immaculate show” standard … this is a working boat ! - it was perfectly clean and tidy and acceptable to fish from - I’ve been on much worse over here in England!
    Also if it looks used in my eyes - the sign of a good captain! - means he’s getting fish in the boat !
    Also there is nothing wrong with the tackle contrary to some comments? - again perfectly useable and did the job well, And to be fair it all catches fish 👍
    If you get the chance you really do need to try deep dropping a 6/8 hook flapper on the electric reel set up in the depths - it’s a totally unique experience!
    Make sure your fit for a workout too … reeling fish in over 1000ft + down is tiring but so much fun 😆
    Food and drink was offered no worries there either, or bring what you wish, just make sure you have essential supplies, sun cream, hat, glasses etc and a charged phone - the coast is stunning for a picture 👍
    I can’t wait for April to hurry up and come round, when I can get back - I’ll be like a kid a Christmas!

    We loved this trip as it was a small boat so we got the chance to ask questions from the very enthusiastic and experienced crew of two. We saw pilot whales and dolphins and got a rare sighting of gannets. Three of our friends decided not to join the trip due to the choppy weather but were refunded their fees promptly.
