Atlantic Eco Experience is a whale watching and diving company based in Puerto Colón, on the south coast of Tenerife, an area recognised as a Whale Heritage Site by the World Cetacean Alliance. On its watching trips, the crew approaches the animals with engines off and at a safe distance. The programme also includes adapted sailing, try dives and dives for certified divers, adapted diving and PADI courses from Open Water to Divemaster.
The company builds its work around marine conservation: when the crew finds an injured animal, they pick it up and take it to the La Tahonilla wildlife recovery centre, and on every trip they remove floating plastic from the sea and explain its consequences to passengers. It is a partner member of ACEST and of the World Cetacean Alliance.
