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.

The Royal Delfin 4 hour tour itself was fantastic, with friendly staff, safe facilities and opportunity to see the landscape of Tenerife from sea. And of course dolphins/whales - we saw 3 types on the journey and the team did not pursue at any point. The only downside was the journey to the marina, which took 2 hours/same getting back - meaning we started at 7am and returned home by 8pm (staying in north). The pick up point map/description on the booking is useless we had to a rep in the end.

The coach picked us up at 12:20 as arranged. We then drove for an hour before stopping outside another hotel and proceeded to sit there for over an hour. No communication from the driver who was sat outside smoking and watching football on his phone. Eventually another couple arrived and got on the coach, before we moved off again. Getting there actually took about 3 hours but the destination is only 40 minutes or less from the pick up point. Start to finish 8 hours. Kids were exhausted.

Bus pick up was on-existent so we couldn’t go. I’d like a refund.

Royal Delfin staff were very good. Only concern we had was the email the day before saying to bet at Pier 12 at 12o’clock, but our pick up at the hotel, quite some distance away was also at 12 0’clock. It was at this time the TUI app stopped working, and as it was an e-ticket didn’t have access to any phone numbers to call.

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.
