What to expect
Small-group catamaran trip along the south-west coast of Tenerife with a marine biologist on board. Swim stop at Masca cliffs, drinks and a paella lunch included on the longer option.
Resident pilot whales and bottlenose dolphins, 20 min from the pier. Departures run from Canary Islands, and the whole experience takes about 3 h — enough to fit it into a single day of a wider Canary Islands itinerary.
