Freebird One
A whale and dolphin watching catamaran based at Puerto Colón in Costa Adeje. Its own website sets the trip out in several formats: short runs along the Adeje coast, a mid length option and a longer crossing up to Masca and Los Gigantes, with pick up available from the north of the island as well. Two further catamarans from the same operator complete the fleet.
Freebird One sails from Puerto Colón in Costa Adeje out to the stretch of sea off south western Tenerife where cetacean watching is concentrated. The company sets out its programme as four trips of different lengths: two along the Adeje coast and two longer ones reaching Masca and the cliffs of Los Gigantes, one of them with pick up from the north.
Besides the catamaran that gives the company its name, the fleet includes two more boats, and the operator also runs private events on board. Its website keeps a section on the cetaceans of the area and offers free cancellation with a day's notice.
