Guidekin's take

4.99 from 658 reviews, the top-rated whale trip in our Tenerife catalogue: a sailboat charter under the Los Gigantes cliffs with a cove swim and cava, wine and beer poured, €75 per person.

Sails, not engines, which matters when the pilot whales surface.

Best for: A sailboat under the Los Gigantes cliffs with a cove swim and cava poured, quiet enough to hear the pods breathe: 4.99 from 658 reviews at €75 per person. Whale & Dolphin Watching comparison

Trade-off: West coast start, not the south.

In our comparison: #1 of 16 in Whale & Dolphin Watching, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
