Gran Canaria Dolphin Observation

(Private Experience)

Step on board the private WeWhale Gran Canaria morning trip for an unforgettable 3-hour dolphin observation experience, exclusively designed for you, your family, or your friends.

Departing from the charming Pasito Blanco harbour, this exclusive tour offers a serene and personal encounter with the marine life of the Canary Islands. Whether you’re travelling as a couple, family, or small group of friends, this experience is designed around you, with no strangers on board.

Your journey takes place on ‘Senda del Azul’, our spacious Rodman 1100, perfectly suited for private groups of up to 8 people. With our dedicated crew—skipper Victor and marine biologist Paula—you’ll receive expert guidance as you learn about the diverse cetacean species that inhabit the waters of southern Gran Canaria.

We’ve transformed ‘Senda del Azul’ into a hybrid vessel, powered by two electric engines. This allows for a quiet, low-impact navigation, ensuring minimal disturbance to the animals and an exceptionally peaceful experience for those on board.

Throughout the trip, you may encounter some of the most emblematic species of the region, including bottlenose dolphins, Atlantic spotted dolphins, common dolphins, Risso’s dolphins, striped dolphins, and short-finned pilot whales. These species are frequently seen in the surrounding waters and are a true highlight of the tour.

Drinks and snacks are offered on board, provided through collaborations with projects that share our commitment to sustainability and marine conservation.

Our crew also actively contributes to ocean protection during the tour—removing floating litter, keeping watch for marine animals entangled in debris, and reporting illegal or harmful activity towards wildlife, ensuring a responsible and respectful experience at sea.
