Only a few nautical miles from the home port of Puerto Colón, we start our search for whales and dolphins, which are at home in the Atlantic Ocean. To see these magnificent animals in their natural environment is the main attraction of our boat trip. In a small bay close to the coast we will anchor for a small bathing break, if the wind and waves allow it.

Great but too short!

The ride was great, but you could still stay a little longer on the catamaran to watch the animals.

Toll aber zu kurz!

Die Fahrt war klasse, allerdings könnte man ruhig noch ein bisschen länger auf dem Katamaran bleiben, um die Tiere zu beobachten.

Great!

We saw many dolphins and they came very close to the boat. The sea state was stronger than expected but has been successful

Toll!

Wir haben viele Delfine gesehen und sie kamen dem Boot sehr nah. Der Seegang war stärker als gedacht aber hat sich gelonht

It was really cool

The organization went well, we started the boat trip on time in Playa de las Americas and saw dolphins and a pretty big whale very close to the catamaran. You´ll get that special feeling or goosebumps when you finish lake thesis animals at close quarters examined. We shot some amazing pictures there, so thanks for that experience!
