Lovely experience. - The experience itself excellent. They tried very hard not to leave without seeing them because they did not want to be seen and finally we could enjoy some beautiful cauldrons and wonderful bottles. With love and care towards the animals that was noticeable. Just a mention of the change of schedule of the excursion we had for the morning and unilaterally changed us to the afternoon without explanation.

10/10 Pura Vida whale tour, La Gomera! Saw a rorqual & 2 hammerheads. Carmen & Fatima are amazing. Top picnic & music! - An unforgettable experience in La Gomera. We departed from Valle Gran Rey on the Pura Vida boat for a whale-watching trip. We were extremely lucky to see a rorqual whale and two hammerhead sharks—an absolute spectacle! I must highlight the incredible service from Captain Carmen and Fatima; they perfectly convey their passion for what they do. The atmosphere was unbeatable, as we enjoyed an onboard picnic, drinks, and music. A 10/10 trip.

Amazing experience - Chose Pura Vida based on the positive reviews and their commitment to nature and sustainability. We were not disappointed. Organised the trip via WhatsApp and paid cash on the day. Was sent an approximate location of where to meet. You need to walk further out on the peer to meet at the Pura Vida kiosk. We were fortunate and saw pilot whales and dolphins although it was such a beautiful day that the boat ride alone would have sufficed if we didn’t see anything. We got reasonably close to them too. Taking a good camera meant we got fantastic photos. Fatima also explained what we were seeing and their typical behaviour. On the way back, we were offered some light snacks and drinks on the boat within a bay. No swimming this time of the year- too cold. I was the only one on the boat to feel sea sick but really enjoyed the trip despite that. I highly recommend this trip.

Very nice tour - The tour was beautiful, we were certainly accompanied by dolphins for a quarter of an hour. The music and snacks on the way back were a great match for the ambience on the coastline.

FOR YOUNG PEOPLE - SMALL GROUP, that's true, but I should have known better how we were going on the boat. We are a 65 year old couple overweight and we had a hard time getting off and on the boat, given its location in the port. And the way we had to be during the 2 hour tour was also regular, little comfort and fear of falling. As for the sighting, we saw a lot of dolphins and some calderon. My husband was able to take quite a few pictures. The staff was friendly and helpful.
