Operated by WeWhale Canarias SL · Puerto Calero, Las Palmas
Off the southeastern coast of Lanzarote lies Puerto Calero, a bustling marina town renowned for its clear waters and marine life. Here, WeWhale Canarias SL operates a distinct whale and dolphin observation experience aboard a private catamaran, taking visitors beyond the typical tourist route. This four-hour journey invites up to 12 guests to witness the thriving cetacean populations of the Canary Islands in a quiet, respectful way that prioritizes animal welfare and conservation.
This trip stands apart in a region where marine life flourishes amidst volcanic seascapes. Guests embark from Puerto Calero’s harbor aboard a carefully maintained catamaran equipped with a hydrophone for underwater listening and a 360-degree camera, enhancing the connection between observers and these mighty ocean inhabitants. The vantage point allows for panoramic views of the Atlantic, where pods of pilot whales, bottlenose dolphins, and occasionally elusive sperm whales glide through the deep blue.
Unlike crowded tours, WeWhale Canarias offers a noise-free environment that minimizes disturbance to wildlife, fostering genuine opportunities to observe natural behaviors. Organic refreshments complement the experience, allowing guests to relax while surrounded by endless ocean. Beyond the trip's immersive appeal, participation supports ongoing whale protection efforts, making it an impactful adventure.
