DOLPHIN WATCHING

Watching free dolphins takes you into a fascinating world full of emotions that will not leave you indifferent.

Dolphins usually come to browse the boats and play with the wakes of the boats, in that moment of interaction with us you will be able to feel how their eyes inspect you and you will see that they hide an incredible intelligence.

Their developed and complex brain make them one of the most intelligent animals on the planet.

To put an end to a few hours of active search for dolphins and navigation, we will head towards the cliffs to be able to admire their magnitude and size from up close.

The different ravines and volcanic rock formations are best appreciated from the water. That is why we suggest our clients take a dip at the foot of the Los Gigantes Cliffs and, back in port, enjoy tapas-based snacks on board.

The fixed menu is suitable for vegetarians, you will also have cold drinks (Dorada beer, soft drinks, white wine and water).

The bottlenose dolphin lives regularly in the Teno-Rasca Marine Strip. It is large and robust, grey, with a short, broad beak, and it often comes to the boat of its own accord: it rides the wave the hull pushes ahead of it, letting itself be carried along by the bow, leaping and twisting. We also frequently meet short-finned pilot whales, which belong to the same family despite their name.

Their coming close does not mean they can be touched or joined in the water. Swimming with cetaceans is prohibited by law and we always comply: the swimming and snorkelling stop takes place at anchor near the coast, never with the animals nearby. We sail at under four knots in their presence, never cut across their path and never chase a group.

The silence of sailing works in our favour. With no engine noise the animals stay calm, and very often it is they who decide to come closer. We never promise you will see them, because the sea is not a stage.
