Whale Watching

Los Gigantes: Private Whale & Dolphin Watching Cruise

Set out on a private sailboat with just your group, tailoring the cruise length, wildlife watching, and swim stops for a trip at your own pace.

Along the Teno Rasca marine reserve, Los Gigantes cliffs rise beside Atlantic water, creating sheltered coves where whales and dolphins pass.

Watch for whales and dolphins from the sailboat as you cruise the marine reserve, then drop anchor to swim and snorkel in the sea below the cliffs.

An English, Spanish, or French speaking guide leads up to 8 guests, with snorkeling gear, swim stop, crew service, drinks, fruit, and tapas included.

Choose 3, 6, or 8 hour itineraries; longer cruises add lunch, a call at Punta de Teno, and cava at sunset while anchored in a cove.

Cruise was great! Had an amazing experience

So, I surprised my boyfriend with this 6-hour private boat tour for our anniversary and honestly – totally nailed it. We set off from Los Gigantes and the cliffs look even bigger from the water, like, can’t even explain. Our captain (shoutout to Marco!) was super chill and knew all the best spots for pics. Saw dolphins playing right by the bow and I legit squealed. Lunch was fresh and filling (the olives!!). We snorkeled but water's a bit chilly in May, so bring an extra towel. Felt spoiled the whole time. If you want something memorable and kinda bougie, do this.

Booked the boat with friends. Weather was mostly sunny but got a random cloud patch for like half an hour. Still, views were EPIC. Dolphins everywhere, felt like a Nat Geo film. Would give 5 stars but music system on board was glitchy, so bring ur own speaker if you’re picky about tunes.
