Spirit of the Sea: Cetacean sighting in Gran Canaria
Overview
We are passionate about the sea, dolphins and whales and try to share this passion with our clients. For us it is also very important to take care of the environment and whenever we can we take fishing nets or large drifting plastics out of the sea or save animals in danger, such as turtles entangled in these dangers. We have been collaborating with the university and marine scientists for many years providing data and sharing experiences or participating in projects of different nature and the presence of you aboard our ship will help us to continue with this project.
What's Included
- Professional crew with knowledge of the history and environment of cetaceans
- 2 1/2 hour catamaran tour

What To Expect
We will go out in search of dolphins and whales to observe them in their natural environment and learn something about them while enjoying the show they offer us in front of the boat, jumping out of the water or playing among them. We can also see other types of marine fauna such as turtles, flying fish ...
We were the first to start this activity on the island. All these years have given us enough knowledge to guarantee success in our excursions. Even so, on very few occasions it may be that we do not see any whales or dolphins and if this happens, we will give you a bonus so you can come for free another day on the boat.
Upon boarding you will receive a small brochure with explanations about dolphins and whales, illustrated with photographs of these made from the ship. During the excursion you will have free soft drinks and water.
We designed this catamaran specifically for this activity and so that all passengers could enjoy these wonderful animals comfortably and safely. It is a boat with glass bottoms to see dolphins and whales underwater when they swim next to the boat. An unforgettable experience.
