What to expect

The thrill of watching dolphins in their natural environment is one of the great experiences Gran Canaria has to offer. Onboard Spirit of the Sea – World Cetacean Alliance certified for responsible whale and dolphin watching – you'll get to see these friendly and intelligent creatures in their natural habitat.

There are six types of dolphin to spot, including bottlenose and common. And fin – the second-largest mammal – and pilot whales also make regular appearances. In fact, one-third of all species of cetaceans, which include whales and porpoises, can be found in these waters.

You'll be able to keep a look-out for other creatures – turtles, flying fish and brightly coloured parrot fish – thanks to the Spirit of the Sea's viewing area. Plus, there's a swim stop included, for when you want to cool off in the water.

    Everything was great! Especially the staff was so helpful and friendly! We were suffering of the sea sickness but the crew did their best to help us. Much appreciated! But would be better if it is said clearly that due to the high waves in the ocean you need to be prepared. But all in all - amazing experience! We saw so many dolphins that day.

    Nicht gut gefallen hat mir die Ausweisung des Abholpunktes auf dem Voucher. Hätte für mich deutlicher hervorgehoben werden müssen. Haben am Hotel Tui Kids Club Princess gewartet, sollten aber an einem Kreisel abgeholt werden. 30,00€ Taxigeld kamen für unseren Ausflug mit darauf :/ Die Crew war supernett und hilfsbereit. Getränke wären in kl. Flaschen praktischer gewesen, als die Pappbecher, gerade beim schwankenden Boot. Aber ansonsten war es ein schöner Ausflug, auch mit dem Ärgernis vorweg.

    Wir haben tatsächlich Delfine gesehen! Die Tiere wurden nicht verfolgt oder getrieben und es wurde Zwischenstopps eingelegt, um Müll aus dem Meer zu fischen. Wir haben nebenher noch fliegende Fische gesehen und hatten eine tolle motivierte Crew

    Es wär echt toll, wenn man eine Fahrt ohne Kinder anbietet, muss ja nicht täglich sein. Es wär auch super, wenn man den Menschen vielleicht mal sagt, dass es rücksichtslos und asozial ist, sofort nach vorne zu stürmen so dass keiner dahinter mehr was sehen kann. Dieser Egoismus könnte leicht unterbunden werden.

    Wir haben eine große Delfingruppe gesehen. Es war wirklich außerordentlich beeindruckend. Ohne die Tiere zu jagen konnten wir sie gut beobachten. Die Mannschaft war sehr hilfsbereit für die an Board die seekrank waren. Alles lief koordiniert und gut organisiert ab. Vielen Dank für das wirklich tolle Erlebnis ????

    Unbedingt empfehlen etwas gegen Seekrankheit vorsorglich einnehmen. Etwa 1/3 der Teilnehmer war seekrank. Aber wir haben Delphine gesehen!
