The perfect day! - We had the BEST day with Diego! My family of 4 plus our two friends made the trek to the southern tip of Tenerife after arriving the same morning on a cruise ship in Santa Cruz. Our cruise ship moved the departure time up an hour, but everyone accommodated us and let us do the excursion an hour early. We saw a mom and calf pilot whales, dolphins showing out doing flips, flying fish, and a huge sea turtle that surfaced right by the boat. It was a perfectly sunny and warm day with yummy snacks and wine. Unforgettable experience!

Fabulous Experience - Had the most amazing few hours onboard Galatea! From the moment we met Patrick, we felt super welcome. Thank you to Juan, our Captain, for an unforgettable experience. His knowledge of the water was second to none and his humour had us all laughing - he made the experience amazing! We were lucky enough to see Turtles and Whales and stopped for a picnic and a swim in a beautiful cove. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area!

Boat tour - Pleasant boat tour with nice captain and whale watching. Drinks and a small snack are provided. Animal-friendly tour, as driving at not high speed.

Sailing with an Irish twist - Wonderful sailing experience with a funny Irish captain, who knows his trade and keeps you entertained during his trips. Definitely recommended if you don’t want to go on crowded tours that are also offered nearby. We saw whales, went snorkelling, enjoined some snacks and had an overall good time!

Best experience of all time - Had the best time on this sail boat. Patrick is a great captain, very informative and was able to answer all our questions. We had lots of fun and laughed the whole time with him. Seeing the pilot whales in their natural habitat was beautiful and we would definitely book with Patrick again

Have a good time with friends! - Long live nature, calm and Patrick the captain! A very nice ride with friends aboard the Galatea. We have had other boat trips to meet the marine fauna but this is the one we preferred: in small group, quiet and friendly Mood on board and respect for the environment. Thank you Patrick for this pleasant outing! See you next year..we hope!
