Freebird Puerto de la Cruz, Datos Rápidos
Freebird Puerto de la Cruz, Whale Watching With Hotel Pickup
This is the classic Freebird catamaran whale watching trip, with hotel pickup from Puerto de la Cruz and the north of Tenerife. You are collected in the north, driven down to Puerto Colon, and join a proper 4.5-hour whale and dolphin watching trip that also cruises the coastline toward Los Gigantes and Masca. Freebird is one of the most well-known catamarans on the island, and this is the easy way to do it from the north without renting a car. Lunch and drinks are included, from 69€ per adult.
Straight talk below: the catamaran actually departs from Puerto Colon in the south, so your northern pickup can be up to 2 hours before departure to beat the traffic, and the coach is a comfortable shared one, not a private transfer. What you get is the real, well-run Freebird trip, sorted end to end, without needing a car.
You reserve with a small deposit and pay the rest on the day, with pickup, lunch, drinks and swimming time all included. You get a Best Price Guarantee, fast confirmation and real people on WhatsApp every day, 08:00 to 22:00, to help with pickup points and group bookings. Rated 4.8/5 from 1,360+ reseñas verificadas.

Freebird Whale Watching From Puerto de la Cruz, With Pickup
Looking for a boat trip from Puerto de la Cruz that works without planning a whole expedition? This is the classic Freebird catamaran experience with a pickup option from Puerto de la Cruz in North Tenerife, taking you down to Puerto Colon for a proper Tenerife whale watching trip. Freebird is one of the most well-known catamarans in Tenerife and has been running whale watching trips in Tenerife for many years. People book it because it is reliable, spacious, professionally run, and the route is a good one: whales and dolphins first, then the coastline toward Los Gigantes and Masca.
This is not a north-coast boat tour leaving from Puerto de la Cruz. It is the smart version: you get collected in the north, then join the real action in the south, so it is one of the easiest ways to go whale watching from Puerto de la Cruz with pickup included.
Your Day, North Pickup To Whales In The South
Your day starts with the Puerto de la Cruz pickup, which can be early (sometimes around 11:15) to avoid traffic, so you arrive relaxed in the south. Once you are in Puerto Colon, the Freebird departs from gate 10 or gate 15, both near the end of the harbour by the fuel station. The trip runs about 13:15 to 17:45. If you are early, that is no problem: grab a coffee, walk around the harbour, and be ready when the boat returns from its morning trip, so you can be among the first onboard and get first pick of the Freebird Gold sunbeds (they cannot be reserved in advance).

Freebird Puerto de la Cruz Questions (FAQ)
The questions people ask most before booking. Still unsure? Message our local team on WhatsApp, abierto todos los días de 08:00 a 22:00.
¿De dónde sale realmente el Freebird?
El catamarán sale de Puerto Colón en el sur de Tenerife, no de Puerto de la Cruz. Por eso está incluido tu servicio de recogida en el norte: te recogen en Puerto de la Cruz y el norte de Tenerife y te llevan hasta el barco. La recogida puede ser hasta 2 horas antes de la salida para evitar el tráfico.
¿A qué hora es la recogida y es un traslado privado?
La recogida es temprano, a veces alrededor de las 11:15, para que llegues relajado al sur. Es un autocar compartido cómodo con varias paradas en hoteles por el norte de Tenerife, no es un traslado privado. Confirmamos su punto y hora de recogida exactos después de la reserva.
¿Cuánto dura el viaje?
El viaje en barco trata sobre 4,5 horas, normalmente entre las 13:15 y las 17:45 aproximadamente, además de los traslados de ida y vuelta al norte. Si llegas temprano al Puerto Colon, puedes tomarte un café y dar un paseo por el puerto antes de embarcar.
¿Qué veremos en el viaje?
La observación de ballenas y delfines es la misión principal, en el hábitat natural de los animales frente a la costa suroeste. La ruta navega luego hacia los acantilados de Los Gigantes y Masca Área de la Bahía. La vida silvestre es salvaje, por lo que los avistamientos nunca se pueden garantizar.
¿Qué comida y bebidas están incluidas?
El almuerzo está incluido: Arroz huertano, pan y un plátano canario. Las bebidas incluyen cerveza, refrescos, agua y sangría. Se pueden solicitar menús especiales para celíacos y veganos previa confirmación con antelación.
¿Cuánto cuesta?
Los adultos son de 69€ cada uno, los niños de 4 a 11 años son 34,50€ cada uno, y los niños menores de 4 años entran gratis (mencione cualquier bebé en las notas de su pedido). Los descuentos para grupos aumentan con su grupo, desde 15€ de descuento a partir de 4 adultos. Se reserva con un pequeño depósito y el resto se paga el día de la visita.
¿Qué son las tumbonas Freebird Gold?
Son una zona VIP de tumbonas delanteras en el catamarán, 25 € por cama (cada uno cabe dos personas), pagados a bordo. Son por orden de llegada y no se pueden reservar con antelación, así que si quieres uno, embarca temprano y dirígete directamente hacia él.
¿Hay una parada para nadar y es cómodo el barco?
Sí, hay una parada para nadar en aguas tranquilas cuando las condiciones del mar lo permiten. El catamarán es grande y relajado, con áreas de asientos y descanso tanto al sol como a la sombra, además de un baño y un vestuario a bordo. No es accesible para sillas de ruedas, pero el personal puede ayudar con el embarque.
