It is the cruise for people who want to see dolphins without a crowded deck. Tapas, drinks and a stop for swimming and snorkelling are all included.<\/p>\n<h2>What happens on this cruise<\/h2>\n<p>We sail from <strong>Puerto Col\u00f3n<\/strong>, the largest marina in the heart of Costa Adeje. The catamaran has a wide deck with comfortable seating and sun loungers, so nobody has to compete for a spot.<\/p>\n<p>The route follows the coast into waters where <strong>dolphins, whales and sea turtles<\/strong> turn up regularly. From the deck you also see cliffs, coves and beaches that no road reaches, which means they are only visible from the water.<\/p>\n<p>Halfway through, the catamaran drops anchor in a bay. That is the moment for swimming, snorkelling and jumping in. It is also when the crew serves <strong>tapas and drinks: wine, beer and soft drinks<\/strong>, all included in the price.<\/p>\n<p>The skipper and crew are experienced and happy to talk about the island, its history and its wildlife. This is not a cruise with a microphone and a fixed script, more a conversation on deck.<\/p>\n<h2>Who this is for (and who it is not)<\/h2>\n<p>It suits couples, small groups of friends and families who prefer an intimate atmosphere to a large catamaran carrying dozens of people. Children up to the age of 12 get a discount.<\/p>\n<p>If you are travelling with a baby and a pushchair, or you want the most stable option because of seasickness, the large catamaran is the better fit. This boat is smaller, so you feel the movement more.<\/p>\n<h2>Practical information<\/h2>\n<p>Departures run at <strong>9:30, 12:30 and 15:30<\/strong>, with an additional <strong>18:30 sunset sailing in summer<\/strong>. Each cruise lasts 3 hours. We confirm the exact meeting point and time after booking, on the ticket you receive within 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Our team checks the weather before every departure. <strong>Cancellation is free up to 72 hours before the start<\/strong> with a 100% refund. Under-18s sail only with the consent of an accompanying adult, and the operator may offer paid extras on the day, such as photos.<\/p>\n<p>Bring something with long sleeves. Even on a hot day, three hours on the water can turn cool.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Three hours on a small catamaran carrying a maximum of 23 guests.
