Whale Watch Tenerife has a Blue flag-Barco Azul (Blue Boat flag), an accreditation from the regional Canarian Ministry of Tourism and the national Spanish Ministry for the Environment which ensures the commitment to and compliance with the different national regulations and laws which protect the pilot whale and dolphin populations. What is more, Whale Watch Tenerife fulfills the norms included in the Carta de Calidad (Quality Charter) which includes a commitment to offering a touristic service respecting the animals and minimising the impact that this could have on the marine environment.
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 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.

I can highly recommend this company, the whale watching trip was great, the crew was very respectful of the wildlife and knowledgeable, great time all around. farley rimonTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Ion was one of the most knowledgeable, kind, attentive and interactive guide I have ever experienced. Whale watch tenerife keeps it real. Not only do they have special devices to find where the whales are, but ti approach them we keep a safe distance for them and for us. This tour company makes sure we can admire these beauties of animals for a long time to come. You pay more, but in return you get people that really know about the behaviour of whales in Islas Canarias and Tenerife. We saw our first pilot whale thanks to you. Ion thank you! Matt HatcherTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. An amazing experience. Carlotta and Inigo made the whole thing work like clockwork even though the sea was quite rough. Sailing out felt almost like a rollercoaster but that added to the excitement! We saw several groups of pilot whales, including a mother and baby who came very close to our boat. It was just magical to see them, and the crew were very respectful to the animals and made it just the experience we were hoping for. We also had a quick glimpse of a turtle that swam right by us too which rounded things off. Would highly recommend; the absolute highlight of our holiday.

Let me start off by saying that regardless of what we saw out there in the ocean today, we were in the hands of knowledgeable, experienced, respectful guides 🙏👌🏻. The small boat cuts it's engine when close to the wildlife. And we appreciated their love for their job and how special the ocean is 💙 Today will be a day that we remember for the rest of our lives 💞. We saw flying fish, tuna, playful dolphins and pilot whales 🐋. We even listened to the pilot whales 'chatting' under the water. But the the most exciting thing of all was witnessing a Blue Whale 🐳🐳🐳 out in the ocean. A true once in a lifetime experience ✨️. The staff were so excited and so humbled by this incredible creatures. We were all brought to tears with the wonder of Mother Nature. And we could not have wished for a better company to do this experience with. Thank you 🌸 a thousand times, and a thousand times again 🙏 ClaudeTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. The experience with Ion was simply stunning. Despite the rather poor sight due to the Calima weather (Sahara Dust), we had the chance to see Dolphins, Pilot Whales, and various other animals living off and in the sea. The boat tour with Ion is focused on discovery and respect of nature unlike the rather touristic Catamaran trips which focus more on swimming, eating, and drinking. Ion is very literate and is super passionate with his job. He picks out plastic garbage off the sea, provides very educative content and has an experienced eye. With the trip you don’t head into the midst of a pod of Dolphins or Whales. You have some distance, turn off the engine and let nature and the animals decide if they come closer or not. That was truly magical as the nature came to visit us on our little boat. Our recommendation: Focus on a tour like that rather than bigger boats and touristic quick experiences. You will have a deeper, more meaningful and respectful encounter with mother nature! Thanks a lot to the team and Ion! You find tours of them offered on TripAdvisor. Our tour was called: Whale Watching Eco-Adventure from Costa Adeje L FTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Absolutely amazing boat trip! Please only book with them, not other organisations! This specific organisation focuses on respecting the animals in their natural habitats, without stressing them or scaring them away! Do NOT book whale watching trips with big catamarans or party boats! Ion was our biologist and captain and gave us the best trip! He speaks English very well, explains everything perfectly and is very knowledgeable! He is respectful of the ocean, the animals, and he even collects plastic, if he sees any during the trip. You can tell he loves his job and cares deeply about the ocean! 🌊 it was the most magical experience! The whole boat tour was informative, very well organised and just perfect. Watching the whales 🐳 willingly approach the little boat, you get emotional! You can see that if you do NOT force the animals to get close, they will get close to you by themselves. You leave them to have a choice! And this is exactly how it is supposed to be! Mike BTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. What an amazing experience! This is a must if you are in Tenerife. Thank you so much to Carlotta and Inigo for a fabulous trip. I never imagined we would be so close to so many incredible whales, but they were up close for sure! Your knowledge and experience made the difference and interesting and fun; we couldn't have asked for more. And a special thank you for how you treated those of us that were seasick with compassion and care - we are truly grateful.

We waren lucky, maar ik weet wel dat de schipper precies weet waar hij moet zijn - met een informatief plaatjesboek aan boord waardoor je meer kan leren over de dieren - bij het zien van de dieren stopte de schipper een speciale microfoon onder water. Zo hoorde we het klikken van de dolfijnen. Leuk om eens mee te maken! Fijn dat de schipper goed inschat of de dieren gestresst zijn! Er zijn ook ongecertificeerde whale & dolphin tours & als je dan de dieren wilt zien, wil je het op een fijne manier doen dat het ook fijn en veilig voor de dieren zelf. Soms komen er namelijk veel toeristen of bootjes op af. Dit is een duurzame tour met veel informatie. Gegeven door een passievolle schipper!! 10000% aan te raden.La evaluación general en Google es 4.9 de 5, en base a 701 reseñas
