Unlike other boats crowded by people without limit all our clients can enjoy privacy staying in any separate zone. This makes a boat trip or boat excursion special. The combination of speed and comfort makes this tour a unic one. For comfort cruising we limit the maximum group to 10 persons who can enjoy any spacious and comfort zones on the boat.

The main feature of a boat trip in Tenerife is the opportunity to see whales and dolphins up close in their natural habitat. Did you know that Tenerife is the third highest volcanic island in the world? The Teide volcano rises from the bottom of the sea to a height of almost 7 km, and the difference in depth between Tenerife and the neighboring island of La Gomera is up to 3 km. With this, the strait between Tenerife and La Gomera is a very rich ecosystem that attracts these marine animals here. In the waters of Tenerife you can find up to 17 different species of whales and dolphins. Some species of whales and dolphins live permanently in the waters of the south of Tenerife: pilot whales, bottlenose dolphins (known from the movie Flipper), striped dolphins. During the migration through the waters of Tenerife from March to May, so called Tenerife whale watching season, you can see fin whales, blue whales and sperm whales, toothed, striped and spotted dolphins. Pilot whales can be often seen no more than 2 miles from the South coast.
There are strict rules in Tenerife for the yachts approaching whales. It is allowed to come to the whales no closer than 50 meters. However, the whales themselves often approach the yacht, which in this case must remain not moving. Loud music, bathing and feeding animals are prohibited. Whales and dolphins watching in the vicinity is only possible for Tenerife blue flag boats that are licensed for whales and dolphins watching excursions in Tenerife. Therefore, when booking a whale and dolphin watching tour, it is necessary to find out if the yacht has a “blue” flag. Royal Ocean yacht is one of the legal boats having permission for whales and dolphins excursions.
The yachts making whales and dolphin trips in Tenerife are located in three marinas in Tenerife. Marina del Sur in Las Galletas and Puerto Colon offer whale and dolphin watching at Costa Adeje and Los Cristianos area. Marina de Los Gigantes has the boats making dolphin trips in the area from San Juan to Los Gigantes. Many Tenerife yachts offer group whale and dolphin tours at individual prices, but it is possible to book a private charter.
