Royal Delfin Catamaran
Royal Delfin Catamaran sails from Puerto Colón in Costa Adeje for whale and dolphin watching along the south-west coast of Tenerife. The vessel carries sixteen panoramic windows below the waterline and a submerged viewing compartment, and specialist guides on board work in Spanish, English, German and French. The longest crossing includes a swimming stop in the bay of Masca. Places are booked online or by telephone.
The vessel is operated by Nostramo, S.L. and leaves from Puerto Colón in Costa Adeje, running three different crossings along the south-west shore between Costa Adeje and the cliffs of Los Gigantes. Sixteen panoramic windows below the waterline and a submerged compartment let passengers watch the animals from under the surface. Boarding is adapted for manual wheelchairs, although the toilets are not.
The company holds an administrative authorisation from the Canary Islands tourism department for recreational cetacean watching, entered in the tourism register under number CT-38-4-0000058, and the boat flies the yellow Barco Azul flag that identifies authorised vessels. The rules governing the activity forbid swimming or diving with the animals, touching them and feeding them. Much of the watching area lies inside the Teno-Rasca Marine Strip Special Conservation Area.

What to see in Costa Adeje and Los Cristianos, if you are curious beyond the beach
Tenerife's resort south is not just sunbeds and sand. Adeje's old town has a 16th-century church and the Ponte family's ruined fort, the Barranco del Infierno trail climbs above it, a six-kilometre promenade follows the coast, and a protected volcanic hill rises over Los Cristianos.

What to see in La Laguna: the town that became a plan
La Laguna does not make sense building by building, it makes sense as a plan: a town laid out in one go, without walls, whose grid later travelled to the Americas. Here is what you see in a morning, and why the old town is a World Heritage Site.
