Whale Watch Tenerife is a Member of Sustainability Charter for Whale watching

The Whale Watch Tenerife mission is to offer respectful and sustainable whale and dolphin watching tours that support a healthy marine environment and cetacean populations.

Whale Watch Tenerife was created to offer a more sustainable and respectful alternative to the larger more commercially oriented whale and dolphin tour operations in Tenerife. Costa Adeje of Tenerife is home to a large resident population of short finned Pilot whales, along with large populations of Bottlenose dolphins and many other species of seasonal and migratory whales and dolphins. We believe that respectful and sustainable whale watching tourism is necessary to ensure the long term health of the marine environment, while protecting these resident cetacean species and the migratory whales and dolphins.

The Whale Watch Tenerife vision is to support Tenerife becoming a model for sustainable whale and dolphin watching tourism while seeing an end to cetaceans in captivity.

The Whale Watch Tenerife team is a dedicated group of Biologists, Captains, Naturalists and Photographers who all share a dedication and passion for the whales, dolphins and all the amazing marine wildlife of Tenerife. From our custom built 8 meter whale and dolphin watching boat with its small sound footprint and low emission engine to our respectful approach in the observation of whales and dolphins our team is dedicated to ensuring sustainable whale watching eco-adventures on Tenerife.

Whale Watch Tenerife’s Goals are to arrange our tours to be respectful of the whales and dolphins, be proactive in protecting the marine environment and supporting cetacean research projects. We collect floating garbage found on our tours. We ensure nothing from our boat ends up in the ocean and we do not create any garbage on our whale watching tours. We donate the photos, recordings and sightings information from our Tenerife whale watching tours to numerous cetacean research and conservation organisations to support their projects.

We saved a sea turtle that is endangered and saw pilot whales and dolphins of which swam along with us and were super playful! The crew is very conscious of respect for nature and we picked up trash along the way. They even let me pee off the back of the boat which I was grateful for since I was in great need! Sorry, TMI...

Great experience, totally worth its price. We saw many pilot whales and for a brief moment also bootlenose dolphins. Our guide, Ion, explained many interesting facts about those wonderful animals. Their personal space was also respected, we did not come too close unless they wanted to investigate the boat closer themselves. I would greatly recommend

An unforgettable experience that you must do in Tenerife. I choose the company because the excursion is done by marine biologists. Our guide Ion ( I hope I right the name right) was extremely funny and competent. We didn’t just see the animals but learn a ton of interesting facts about them. I really liked the respectfull attitude toward the animals. No harrasing them or pushing the boat towards them to make them a “circus show”. Thanks for the whole team for the experience!

Today we had a absolutely amazing boat trip with "whale watch tenerife". Our "captain" told us a lot about the whales, dolphins and turtles. We were lucky to see 1 turtle and a lot of pilot whales. Thanks again for the beautiful trip. Our 3 kids also really enjoyed it. Would recommend this to anyone!
