Atlantic Star, Quick Facts
What Makes The Atlantic Star Different
If seeing whales or dolphins is the main reason you came to Tenerife, this is the trip we would send our own friends and family on. Ten guests instead of a catamaran packed with 100+ tourists means space, calm, and real personal service. Grab a soft cushion, take a drink, and let the captain do the work. It is a real sailing yacht, though on most trips the sails stay down and the captain motors so you can simply relax; when the weather is right, they go up. Watch the trip on video at mƦrke det.

Briefing done, drink in hand 🧐 "Okay, so where exactly are these whales hiding? Any minute now, right?"
Findes Der En Hvalsafari PĆ„ Tenerife Med Pengene Tilbage-Garanti?
Yes, and this is the one. Most boats will not offer a guarantee, because they cannot promise it. The Atlantic Star can. For just 15€ per person, you are fully covered.
You see whales or dolphins. Guaranteed at least one of the two, and often guests see both.
If you see neither. You get your money back on the trip, or you join another trip for free.
Fair for everyone. The 15€ is a non-refundable insurance fee. In reality, sightings happen on almost every trip, because the pilot whales here live in these waters all year.
SƄ hvis hvaler er din prioritet, spiller du ikke din feriepenge. Den tryghed er netop grunden til, at sƄ mange gƦster vƦlger denne bƄd frem for en billigere tur uden garanti.
There They Are
And then it happens. The captain has done this thousands of times and knows where the pods hang out, so the boat heads straight for the right water. Somebody points, everybody stands, and that first moment of a fin breaking the surface never gets old, however many times the crew has seen it.

"There! Look, look..." 🐋 That first fin breaking the surface never gets old. Told you the captain knew exactly where to go.
This Is How It Really Looks
The photo beside this text is a real guest photo, not a polished studio shot, so you can see honestly how close the pilot whales come. Want more proof? Scroll to the reviews: dozens of real guests have added their own whale and dolphin photos from this exact trip.

Not zoomed, not staged 📷 A real sighting from the deck, shot by a guest on this exact trip. The reviews below are full of them.
Meet The Pilot Whales
The whales you will most likely see are pilot whales, residents of these waters all year round. To be clear, you will not see them underwater like in this photo on the trip, we added it so you know what they look like up close. They usually travel in family groups, mothers with their young, and sometimes 20 or more together.

The locals 🐋 Resident pilot whales live off the south coast all year round. That is exactly why sightings here are so reliable.
The Dolphin Bonus
If you are lucky, you also meet bottlenose dolphins. They tend to be more playful and curious than the whales, often racing along right beside the boat and surfing the bow wave. Whales are the main event here, but a dolphin escort is a lovely bonus.

The escort 🐬 Bottlenose dolphins are curious and fast. When they show up, they often surf the bow wave right beside you.

Swim Break In A Calm Bay
Efter dyrelivet, anker bƄden ved El Puertito, a sheltered bay, for a swim. Jump straight off the boat, float in the calm water, and just enjoy it. Honest note: this stop is about cooling off and relaxing, not world-class snorkelling. There is gear on board if you want it, but do not expect a coral reef. Come for the swim and the calm.

En Ćrlig Sandhed Om BĆ„dture PĆ„ Tenerife
Almost all licensed boat trips here, whether 3, 6 or 9 hours, follow a similar routine: watch whales and dolphins, then anchor in a calm bay for a swim and some food. Boats do not sail to other islands or drop you on hidden beaches, it is mostly not legal and there are no real spots that make it worthwhile. So the trip is about the marine life, the open sea, and relaxing along the south coast. On this boat, you just get to do it in a small group instead of a crowd.
Best For Families, Couples, Or Simply A Calm Day
For couples. De afgange kl. 12:30 og 15:30 er de mest afslappede, normalt mest voksne om bord. Bløde hynder, ubegrænsede drikkevarer og havet for jer selv. Det er endda blevet brugt til frierier, selvom vi til det øjeblik ville pege dig mod en privat solnedgangstur.
For families. Families are welcome on all trips, but 09:30 is usually best. The boat is safe, stable and child-friendly with life jackets on board, and because it does not lean over hard the ride stays smooth. Children are ages 1 to 9, babies under 1 join free (note it when booking and bring ID), and everyone counts toward the 10-guest limit. We keep children off our website photos on purpose, but you will find plenty of real family reviews below.
For a calm day, not a party. This is a relaxed, intimate trip, not a party boat. Want a louder day out? Club Canary has other boats for that, just ask. If you would rather enjoy the whales in peace with a small, friendly group, this is the one.
Ansvarlig Hvalsafari PĆ„ Tenerife
The Atlantic Star is a quiet sailing boat, so it can often get closer to the whales than big motor boats without disturbing them. This trip is for people who love nature and want to do it the right way. Swimming with whales or dolphins is not allowed in Tenerife, here is Club Canary's guide on swimming with dolphins in Tenerife.

Quiet by design 🌋 A sailing boat slips close without stressing the pod, with Mount Teide watching from the horizon.

Whale Watching Questions (FAQ)
Real answers to the questions people ask most about whale watching on the Atlantic Star. Still unsure? Chat with our local team on WhatsApp, vi hjƦlper hurtigt.
Hvad adskiller Atlantic Star fra andre hvalsafari-ture pƄ Tenerife?
To store ting. Først tager det kun 10 gæster, sÄ det føles personligt og roligt, ikke som en overfyldt katamaran med 100 turister. For det andet er det den eneste bÄd pÄ Tenerife, hvor du kan tilføje en pengene tilbage hvalsafari garanti. Lille gruppe, stor chance for at se hvaler, og dine penge er beskyttede. Den kombination er svær at finde andre steder pÄ øen.
Findes der en hvalsafari-tur pƄ Tenerife med pengene tilbage-garanti?
Ja, og det er den. Til 15⬠pr. person Du kan tilvælge garantien. Hvis du ikke ser hvaler eller delfiner, fÄr du pengene tilbage for turen (minus det lille forsikringsgebyr), eller du kan deltage i en anden tur gratis. De fleste bÄde tilbyder ikke dette, fordi de ikke er sikre nok pÄ det. Atlantic Star kan tilbyde det, fordi der er observationer pÄ næsten hver eneste tur.
Vil jeg virkelig se hvaler eller delfiner pƄ Tenerife?
Meget sandsynligt, ja. Der er fastboende grindehvaler ved Tenerifes sydkyst Äret rundt, sÄ de er der i alle Ärstider. Du vil oftest se grindehvaler, og nogle gange ogsÄ legesyge øresvin. Intet i naturen er 100% sikkert, og det er netop derfor, at den valgfri garanti findes. Hvis det er vigtigt for dig at se dem, sÄ tilføj den og slap af.
Hvorfor sƦlger store virksomheder som rejseselskaber eller hoteller ikke en lille hvalsafari-bƄd som denne?
Det er simpelt: Det handler om volumen. Store rejsearrangĆører og hotelreceptioner sƦlger hundredvis af pladser om dagen, sĆ„ de har brug for store bĆ„de, der kan rumme over 100 personer. At arrangere smĆ„, personlige ture med kun 10 gƦster er for besvƦrligt for dem i den skala, sĆ„ de falder automatisk tilbage pĆ„ de store katamaraner. Det er ikke fordi den lille bĆ„d er af lavere kvalitet ā tvƦrtimod. Et lokalt firma som Club Canary kan arrangere de smĆ„, personlige ture, som de store aktĆører simpelthen ikke gider at beskƦftige sig med. Derfor fĆøles dette som en skjult perle.
Er denne lille hvalsafari lovlig og licenseret?
100%. Atlantic Star har den officielle licens til hvalsafari, hvilket fremgÄr af det gule flag med det blÄ bÄdlogo. Det er en fuldt lovlig, veletableret tur, der sejler fra Puerto Colón. Nogle ser en lille bÄd med en garanti og antager, at det er for godt til at være sandt, men det er fuldstændig lovligt. Du fÄr blot en bedre og mere personlig version af den samme lovlige hvalsafari med de rette tilladelser og en erfaren lokal besætning.
Er Atlantic Star et godt valg til hvalsafari med bĆørn og familier?
Ja, familier elsker det. 09:30 tur er normalt bedst for børn. BÄden er stabil og hælder ikke meget, der er redningsveste ombord, og besætningen snakker og leger ofte med børnene, sÄ forældrene kan slappe af. Børn er i alderen 1 til 9 Är, og babyer under 1 Är deltager gratis (bemærk venligst dette ved booking). Det er roligt og hyggeligt, ikke en larmende festbÄd, perfekt til en afslappet familieudflugt til søs. Du vil ikke se billeder af børn pÄ denne side, vi holder børn uden for vores hjemmeside med vilje for deres privatliv, men du finder masser af anmeldelser fra rigtige familier nedenfor fra gæster, der var glade for at dele deres oplevelse.
Er det en god hvalsafari-bƄdtur for par?
Meget. Det 12:30 og 15:30 turene er de mest afslappede, som regel mest voksne. Bløde hynder, ubegrænsede drikkevarer, havet for jer selv. Det er endda blevet booket til frierier. Hvis du vil have det ekstra specielle øjeblik, sÄ spørg os om en privat solnedgangstur.
Hvad er inkluderet i Atlantic Star-turen med hval- og delfinobservation?
Man fÄr virkelig meget for pengene: ubegrænset forbrug af drikkevarer (læskedrikke, vin, øl, sangria og cava), friskbagte sandwich og snacks (vegetariske og glutenfri efter anmodning), et stop til svømning og snorkling med udstyr inkluderet samt en venlig og erfaren besætning. Hvaludflugtsgarantien er det eneste tillægsgebyr, der koster 15⬠pr. person.
Hvad sker der, hvis jeg bliver søsyg pÄ bÄden?
De fleste har det fint. BÄden bliver tæt pÄ kysten (man ser altid land), turen er kun omkring 3 timer, og en sejlbÄd bevæger sig blidt. For at være sikker: spis noget inden, undgÄ alkohol inden, og tag en søsygepille 30 minutter før ombordstigning. Hvis du føler dig sart, sÄ sid bagest, hvor der er mindst bevægelse. En svømmetur ved pausen kurerer dig som regel.
Er snorklingen god pƄ denne tur?
Lad os være ærlige: svømmestoppet handler mere om at køle af og slappe af i en rolig bugt end om snorkling i verdensklasse. Der er udstyr ombord, hvis du ønsker det, men forvent ikke et koralrev fyldt med fisk. Kom for den dejlige dukkert og roen, og betragt enhver fisk, du ser, som en bonus.
Hvor kører Atlantic Star fra pÄ Tenerife?
From Gate 0 ved Puerto Colón, i Costa Adeje, foran sushirestauranten Yubari. Der er en kort gÄtur eller en hurtig taxatur fra Costa Adeje og Playa de las Américas. Der er parkeringsmuligheder ved havnen (ca. 1.20⬠pr. time), og din guide møder dig ved indgangen og følger dig hen til bÄden.
Kalenderen viser Ā»begrƦnset antalĀ« eller Ā»udsolgtĀ« ā kan jeg stadig booke i sidste Ćøjeblik?
MÄske, sÄ det er altid værd at spørge. Vores online kalender er ikke altid helt opdateret, undskyld for det.

Kan jeg reservere Atlantic Star til privat brug for min egen gruppe?
Ja. Man kan leje hele bƄden til sin egen gruppe, hvilket er populƦrt blandt familier, til fester og frierier. Se vores privat Atlantic Star charter, eller send os en besked, og vi sƦtter det op.

Booking Policy And Guarantee Terms
Thank you for booking the Atlantic Star with Club Canary. These terms keep things fair for the small crew, the other guests and you, so every trip runs smoothly.
Deposit og betaling
Reserver din plads med et lille depositum via Club Canary, og betal resten pÄ selve dagen om bord. Depositummet sikrer din plads, men dækker ikke tabte pladser, hvis du ikke møder op.
Afbestilling og omlƦgning
Personer og smÄ grupper (op til 4): gratis ændringer eller aflysninger op til 24 timer før turen.
Store grupper (5 eller flere): vƦrdsƦt venligst 48 timers varsel for gratis Ʀndringer eller afbestilling. Kontakt office@clubcanary.com.
Sen aflysning og udeblivelse
Ved afbestillinger uden for den gratis afbestillingsperiode, men mere end 6 timer før (24 timer for større grupper), opkræves 50% af det forventede restbeløb.
Ved udeblivelse opkræves 100% af det resterende beløb.
Late arrivals (up to 15 minutes past the meeting time) who show photographic proof at the meeting point are charged 65% of the balance, and we try to fit you on another boat or the next available trip when possible.
Vejr- og sĆøforhold
This trip depends on suitable weather. If we have to cancel for unsuitable conditions, you can reschedule or get a full refund. If the Atlantic Star cannot sail and you cannot rebook, we try to arrange a spot on a similar boat where possible.
Whale Watching Guarantee Terms (Optional, 15€ Per Person)
Garantien dækker hvaler og delfiner: du er garanteret at se mindst én af de to, ikke nødvendigvis begge. Ofte ser gæster begge. Specifikke arter kan ikke garanteres, men de mest almindelige er grindehvaler. Mere om piloterhvaler.
Disse er vilde dyr. Et syn, selv en finne spottet inden for 30 meter, tƦller som et succesfuldt syn.
If the boat has to return early due to severe seasickness on board, the 15€ guarantee fee is refunded, but no further sighting compensation applies, as it is beyond our control.
Hvis ugunstigt vejr ændrer ruten eller afkorter turen, gælder garantien ikke. Løsninger drøftes med lederen.
Garantien gƦlder for en standardrejse, ikke for Ʀndringer forƄrsaget af sygdom, ulykker eller pludselige vejrskift.
If you chose the guarantee and saw no whales or dolphins, we refund the boat trip cost (the 15€ fee is your insurance cost and is not returned). We process this based on the captain's confirmation and any photos from the trip. Our team is not on the boat, so we rely on the honesty of the Atlantic Star crew, whom we fully trust.
Ansvar og opfĆørsel
Guests follow the crew's safety instructions at all times. The captain may adjust or end the trip for safety reasons. Please respect the animals, the boat and your fellow guests so everyone has a good day.

Har du brug for hjƦlp til noget? E-mail info@clubcanary.com eller chat med vores lokale team pƄ WhatsApp, hver dag fra 08:00 til 22:00.
We do not include these terms to be difficult. They simply keep things fair for the small crew, the other guests and you. Thank you for booking with Club Canary, we cannot wait to get you out on the water.

Club Canarys Ćrliga Ć sikt
Ćrligt snak fra dit lokale team pĆ„ De Kanariske Ćer
If seeing whales or dolphins is the main thing you care about, this is the boat we recommend first. It is small, calm and personal, ten guests instead of a hundred, and the optional money back guarantee means you are not gambling your holiday on it.
We will be straight with you: it is not a party boat, and the snorkel stop is just a nice swim, not a reef. But for relaxed, real, small group whale watching in Tenerife, nothing we offer beats it. With only 10 seats per departure it books up fast, so lock in your day early.
Small boat, resident whales, and a guarantee nobody else offers. That is the smart way to whale watch.
