With miles of seafront scenery to enjoy, the west coast of Tenerife deserves to be seen up close. On this sightseeing cruise aboard the Royal Delfin, you'll get to enjoy the jaw-dropping landscapes and catch a glimpse of the marine life in these sun-kissed waters.

This graceful catamaran has ample space on either the open-air deck or inside the elegant art deco bar and lounge. The air-conditioned observation decks below the water level have panoramic windows and submarine cameras with live TV monitor connection, guaranteeing excellent dolphin and whale-watching conditions.

And you'll have time for swimming and snorkelling during the boat trip. A great day out combining both sightseeing and activity.

Poor food, meatballs in sauce, rice and a bread roll was restrictive and a lot of people couldn’t eat it, me included, a cold buffet with a choice should have been offered. The only thing that let this great trip down.

Warm welcome onto boat with cross section of languages so announcement reflected this. Jumping off catamaran into 20 degrees ssa was fab followed by lovely lunch. Then we saw what we came to sea , 6 pilot whales who came quite close to the boat. This included a mother and calf.. Then later on some fab dolphins who jumped out of the water across the surf from boat and then swam in front. Finished with a sunset, full moon, a local.liquer,dancing and singing..well I was! A fab experience.

We were under the impression that it was a whale and dolphin watching tour. We saw some pilot whales after lunch and swimming but after about 1 and a half hours it turned in to a sightseeing tour of Los Gigantos with no apparent attempt to find dolphins. If we had known that we would have not booked or would have booked a sightseeing tour.

Luved it.. excellent experience ??

Felt the boat was overcrowded. You couldn’t relax as people were pushing you to get more of a view. More standing room as seats were overloaded. Information that you were given was excellent. If you are going from the north of the island it did take 2hours. There was a stop on the way. But the driver didn’t say anything so we had to guess what was going on . No guide or travel rep on board the coach. An earlier start would have been ideal

To be honest, the swim/snorkelling stage of the trip was a bit disappointing. A long steam, to get to a bay, where the water depth/clarity did not allow us to take advantage of viewing the marine life below, and we were not permitted to swim nearer to the shore. But I guess as certified divers, we have a different outlook. The whale watching phase though, was fantastic. Several pods of pilot whales and dolphins were seen, for extended periods, not just quick glimpses. Magic!
