Oceano - Whale Watching La Gomera
A cetacean watching company with an office in Valle Gran Rey, on La Gomera, which puts to sea in a traditional fishing boat. Oceano sets out a gentle and respectful style of watching, in small groups and with the stated aim of disturbing the animals' natural behaviour as little as possible, and pairs the sailings with education and outreach work. Places are booked through the website.
Sailings cover the waters off the south-west of La Gomera, where the company names bottlenose dolphins, pilot whales, spotted dolphins, rough-toothed dolphins, common dolphins, Cuvier's beaked whales and humpback whales. The website promises no sightings and describes the approach as gentle and respectful watching.
Oceano signs up to the Charter for Sustainable Tourism on La Gomera and states that its trips have been carbon neutral since July 2022, through contributions to Plántate, a local tree planting project. Information is published in German, English, Spanish and French, and places are booked ahead.
