Fantastic experience

Fantastic experience and very professional captain, interesting explanations about the marine fauna of the area. Highly recommended experience in which we could see whales, dolphins and turtles.

Boat trip to photograph cetaceans

I was skeptical about these commercial proposals but after the experience I had with some friends I had to change my mind, the organization of the trip was perfect and largely met our expectations! We sailed with families of dolphins and met pilot whales to the spectacular rock faces of Los Gigantes.  Captain Javier told us about the lives of these sea creatures in great detail and offered us sandwiches and soft drinks. Four unforgettable hours, diver's word that I am. Many thanks to Francesca and Javier who put passion into their work and customers perceive it

Luxury boat trip

Very cozy boat trip, with 5 people. Luxury, especially when crossing the other crowded boats. Sympathetic captain, and young lady to the intel.

New friends made and a great day on the waves

We booked the Wednesday trip for 4 hours and we found there were 5 of us on the trip. A couple from Belgium, Ann and Patrick, and a solo lady traveller from Germany, Annika. We had a fabulous time. We saw pilot whales and bottle nose dolphins and then went to Masca Bay for a swim and lovely lunch. The sun shone and we made 3 lovely new friends. I'd recommend it just for that but the whole experience was great. BTW Francesca at the office is very helpful and super nice.

Superb and Informative

Superb and informative whale watching trip with Javier on Sea Passion out of Playa San Juan harbour, seeing flying fish, turtle, bottle-nosed dolphins and pilot whales. We also went by sea to Los Gigantes, where we had a snorkel.

Fabulous day

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with sea passion. The staff were extremely helpful. We were given lots of information about the whale sanctuary. It’s a small group boat, which really enhanced the experience. Thanks to the captains expertise we saw;families of pilot whales,seeing the mother and baby together was very special; pods of bottle nosed dolphins;flying fish and even a turtle! The captains passion was infectious. All of the viewings took place with a real respect for the animals and the environment. The captain even making a slight detour to fish a plastic bottle out of the ocean. It was day we will never forget. Thank you sea passion

Family Experience

100% experience recommended especially for families with children, 100% nature, flying fish, calderones, dolphins, etc. The Bath and lunch snack in Masca. They have no negative points, the privacy of the ship, no crowds or a huge amount of people. The staff of the company both Francesca and Javier amazing, everything very well explained, Family Mood, and the treatment of our daughter without knowing her was amazing, 100% recommended if you want to enjoy an incredible experience and especially without masses!!

Four exciting hours

Beautiful boat trip of 4 h. Visas dolphins, small whales and turtles. Service and assistance (Francesca), punctual, professional and competent. The captain, very kind, prepared and helpful. We recommend it as an experience not to be missed. The emotion of being in the marine environment, listening to their sounds, causes a great emotion. The commander shuts down the engines, so as not to disturb them and listen to their breaths and I take full, the moment. Thank you.
