“Meh. The boat owner was a hilarious Irish guy- but he didn’t ride with us. Sent us with a very, very boring tour guide who had a headphone in listening to his own music most of the time. We saw 3 pilot whales, then immediately went back to thRead more”
Spot whales, dolphins, and turtles from a small Puerto Colón speedboat, then swim and snorkel off Tenerife with snacks included.

Snorkel Tenerife’s south coast from Puerto Colón by speedboat, with warm water, small groups, gear included, and chances to spot turtles.
“The experience was absolutely incredible. We originally booked snorkeling, but when we arrived they explained that the wind and waves would make visibility poor, and suggested we try scuba diving instead. We had thought about scuba diving before, but we assumed we’d need more time to prepare, and honestly we were all a bit scared,me, my husband, and our 15-year-old son. But the team was so kind and reassuring, explaining everything calmly and promising to guide us step by step. We decided to switch, and we’re so grateful we did. It became one of the most wonderful experiences we’ve ever had. The guides were patient, safe, and incredibly professional. I…”

“This was my first shore dive, and it exceeded all my expectations! Before the dive, I received a link with useful information – it was very informative and helped me feel more prepared. My instructor was Max – a very positive and friendly person. He gave a detailed briefing at the beginning and helped me choose the right equipment, explaining everything clearly. The dive itself was amazing! The guide was always nearby, making me feel safe and confident. The underwater world is truly mesmerizing, and the highlight of the dive was encountering a sea turtle! An unforgettable experience that I would love to do again!Read more”
Review of Tenerife’s private three-hour yacht cruise from Puerto Colon, with whale watching, snorkeling, lunch, drinks, hotel pickup, and practical tips.
“Excellent afternoon seeing wild turtles and whales. Great overview of Canary Islands history. Tasty lunch provided. We really enjoyed the experience. *one thing to improve is selection of snacks - the only provided snack was potato chips. For all inclusive trip with 2 kids it was quite disappointing. I would suggest to add some fruit to the experience.”
Sail from Puerto Colón to spot pilot whales and dolphins, hear them by hydrophone, swim at Diego Hernández Beach, and enjoy Canarian lunch.
“We opted for a six hour excursion with Big Smile Luxury Charter with Captain Daniel for a birthday celebration, which exceeded our expectations. Daniel went over and above to make everyone onboard feel safe and welcome. He was focused on providing expertise and knowledge on all whales, dolphins and turtles. Making sure we would have the best experience possible (having been on other trips over the years this was by far the best). The food, drinks and not to forget the pastries provided were fabulous. We’re looking forward to returning in the near future.”
