Whale worth doing!!! - We had our boat trip out to see the Pilot whales this afternoon with the boat operator ‘Ocean Blue’ who we booked up through Vicki Farquharson. Wow, what a lovely way to spend 3 hours. The boat is a lovely size, very stable in the water, and there were just 13 persons on board, including the crew of two, who were both very friendly and informative, explaining about the whales, their habitat, and also the volcanic geology of the surrounding islands and the ocean floor, which was fascinating to listen to. Due to the low numbers on board the boat, the experience was a very personal one, and this really was something of a bonus! Within 30 minutes of leaving port, the crew had located a lone male Pilot whale for us, he was apparently sleeping on the surface, probably resting after feeding his family. The boat came to within a few metres of the whale, the skipper switched off the engines, and allowed the boat to drift silently along with the whale for a few minutes while we watched and took photos. As the whale drifted away, the skipper started up the engines again and set off in search of more whales. Within 10 minutes we were again sitting in silence with the engines switched off looking at a family of Pilot whales, including at least two calves. Absolutely fascinating to see! Once we had drifted away from the whales again, the engines were fired back up and we headed back towards the coastline and moored up in ‘Playa De Los Moteros’ which is a lovely bay, where we could view the historic lava flows, and swim from the boat using snorkel equipment supplied from the boat. There were lots of fish to see swimming around there with us too! After our swim, we climbed back aboard and had lunch, supplied by the crew, which was a nice cheese and ham salad crusty roll, with a choice of a canned drink. After lunch we set off along the coastline, with a guided tour of the sights and landmarks on our way back to port. If you’re looking for a brilliant boat trip, I would highly recommend this one, Ocean Blue!👌👍🐳

The Ocean Blue Tenerife is an excellent choice! - We were looking for a boat trip to spot dolphins. There are plenty of boats to be found, but most of them are very full of people. The Ocean Blue Tenerife is an excellent choice if you want to be on a boat with a small group (max 10). There were 6 of us and 2 other people. We received a good explanation about the dolphins and the place where they live. We were able to see them up close. We ate and drank and swam in a bay. It was a Beautiful day!

Whale watching, Tenerife - Fantastic from start to finish. I was dubious about going because out of the 4 of us I can't swim so thought I'd get seasick. How wrong was I! My partner got the sealegs but felt better after the swim in the ocean as recommended by the captain. We saw pilot whales in their natural habitat and took everyone breath away. There was no more than 12 people aboard. We anchored down in a small cove for roughly 1/2 hour for sandwiches, beers & a swim. Fed the fish (and the birds hahaha) honestly had the best time. Highlight of my trip!! Thoroughly recommend this company. With top thanks to Captain Alex xx

Fabulous experience recommended 100% - The experience was great. Booked via Laura who speaks French to the company "The jet ski center and excursions" of Adeje where we were very well advised. On arrival, Christophe who is French gives us all the information on the course of the excursion and the fauna visible in the surrounding ocean, telling us their history, their way of life and food. We leave with a very friendly crew and Nicky who is an Extraordinary Guide. With the captain, they do everything so that we can see the dolphins and we have admired some! No whale visible during this outing but still, we had full eyes and above all, it is important to say, they do not race wildlife, the animals of this protected area are really respected! The dolphins played the game around the boat, it was wonderful. Nicky then told us about the different cities along the coast, points of interest of the island. Moreover she is even taking care of people who are a little seasick and doing everything to make your experience successful and a good time. We had drinks, sandwiches. We stopped in a small intimate cove where we could swim with mask and snorkel to admire the incredible number of sea bream. We really enjoyed the intimate setting of this outing rather than a large group excursion on a larger boat. I really Trip Tip if you want to take a fabulous souvenir with you!

Average better to look around for bigger boat or cheaper experience - Good experience but was sold a lot more than we got. We was told it was an all inclusive food & drink experience & that it was 3 hours long. We got on the boat and wasn’t even told how the day would go or the charters name. We had to ask for our first drink 20 minutes in, which the man seemed annoyed at us for even asking but then finally he got us them. We then stopped to view whales which was incredible & amazing to see and the only decent part of the trip! He then took us to the shallower water for us to jump in, which he had to ask for snorkel equipment? Which we was told part of the trip. When getting out of the water he got out a basket of tin foiled sandwiches which were okay but that and a few crisps was all that was offered. No more drinks were offered despite being told it’s all inclusive. Overall average experience but not worth the money & a very small boat for 12 people.

Ocean Black - 🇪🇦 Mala experiencia, atención al cliente pésima, maniobras cerca de las ballenas poniéndolas en riesgo, todo lo contraria de cuidarlas yo no gastaría ni un euro en esta escursion. Los bocadillos eran pésimos y hablan solo francés. No habia la bebida garazada. Y nos pidieron hasta la propina al bajar. 🇬🇧 Bud decision to go out with this tour trip, they don't respect the group of whales and is risky for them. Sandwich and bread was not good, the capitan speak just franch nothing english. The boat moved so much inside of the waves and was full of people without space for us. They ask also for tips in the end. 🇮🇹 Bad experience, the boat was too full of people, the maneuvers around the whales endanger the same risking to hurt and stressing them definitely, the captain speaks only French, the sandwiches and snacks are really ridiculous and tasteless. The bathroom stop was too short, the boat in the waves being full of people loses stability and moves too much. They also asked us to tip at the end of the round. Absolutely not Recommendation. 🇨🇵 Mauvaise expérience, mauvaises baguettes, les baleines étaient agacées par la présence du bateau à proximité. Au risque d’en blesser certains. Arrêt de baignade trop vite. Tout est axé sur l’argent, ils nous ont également demandé de laisser un pourboire sur le chemin du retour. Je ne le répéterais même pas gratuitement. Le commandant parlane qu’en français.
