Los Gigantes & Masca
Wildlife watching · 1.5 to 3 h · From €28

Boat trip to the Los Gigantes cliffs and Masca Bay looking for pilot whales and dolphins, by boat or speedboat.
Sail beneath the Los Gigantes cliffs, rock walls up to 600 metres high, to Masca Bay, one of the best areas in Tenerife for pilot whales and dolphins. It is one of the most spectacular boat trips on the island.
Choose your boat: the Flipper Uno, a handmade wooden boat, on 2 or 3-hour trips; the Los Gigantes Blue, 1.5 hours in the morning or afternoon; the Masca Express and Los Rápidos speedboats, 2 hours, or the Opera 60 RIB, 3 hours. Speedboats are faster and carry fewer people; the boats are calmer and roomier.
Most trips leave from Los Gigantes harbour; the Opera 60 sails from Puerto Colón. Whale and dolphin watching, life jackets and safety equipment are included.
