Dolphin Watching Cruise

Flipper Uno – 2-hour dolphin and whale watching cruise, without meal

Flipper Uno is a wooden boat handcrafted in Tenerife. It was built in the shipyards of Alcalá and Playa de San Juan, and the construction took 18 months. Even the wooden dolphin at the bow was carved by hand. The boat has been sailing from Los Gigantes since 1996 and remains one of the most recognizable vessels in this part of the island.

The cruise starts in the port of Los Gigantes and heads towards the open ocean, where dolphin or whale watching takes place. Afterwards, the boat sails along the cliffs of Los Gigantes and Masca. From the sea, you can truly appreciate how enormous these rock walls are — in some places they rise almost 600 meters high.

Along the route there is a stop in one of the bays with crystal-clear water. This is the moment for a swim and some relaxation. You can enter the water using the ladder or slide down by zipline if you prefer a more adventurous option.

An official whale watching guide is present on board and explains the animals, cliffs, and route of the trip in the participants’ language. Thanks to this, the experience is not just about sailing, but also about understanding more of what you actually see along the way.
