Gran Canaria whales
Gran Canaria is mostly known for its natural beauty, sandy beaches, and warm weather. However, what many people don’t know is that Gran Canaria is also an excellent place for whale watching. Several whale species can be spotted in Gran Canaria.
Pilot whales are the most commonly seen species in Gran Canaria’s waters. Sperm whales are also seen in the waters around Gran Canaria, although they are less common than pilot whales. Blue whales can also be spotted in the waters of Gran Canaria. These gentle giants can grow up to 30 meters in length and weigh as much as 200 tons.
Gran Canaria whale watching
Whale watching tours are available from several locations around Gran Canaria, including Puerto Rico, Mogan, and Puerto de Mogán. These tours typically last around two to three hours and are led by experienced guides who know the best spots to find whales.
During the tour, you will have the opportunity to observe these majestic creatures up close and learn about their behavior and habitat from your guide. It’s important to note that while whale watching is a fantastic experience, it’s crucial to do it responsibly. This means respecting the whales’ space, following the guidelines set by the tour operators, and not disturbing the animals in any way.
Dolphins Gran Canaria
The crystal-clear waters surrounding Gran Canaria are home to several species of dolphins, including bottlenose dolphins, common dolphins, and spotted dolphins.
Bottlenose dolphins are the most commonly spotted species in the waters surrounding Gran Canaria. They are known for their friendly and curious nature and are often seen swimming near boats and even surfers. Common dolphins are also commonly spotted in the waters around Gran Canaria. They are highly acrobatic and are known for their impressive leaps and flips out of the water. Spotted dolphins, as their name suggests, are easily identified by their distinctive spots.
Swimming with dolphins Gran Canaria
Swimming with dolphins in Gran Canaria is an experience that many people dream of. However, during boat trips in Gran Canaria it is not posible to swim with dolphins. Fortunately, these boat trips are the best way to admire dolphins, since their environment is respected. Swimming with wild dolphins can be dangerous, since you don’t know how they can act.
Gran Canaria whale watching season
One of the most thrilling activities to experience in Gran Canaria is whale watching. However, it is essential to know the highest whale watching season, so you can plan your trip accordingly.
Whale watching in Gran Canaria is possible throughout the year, but the best time to witness these majestic creatures is from April to October. During this time, the waters surrounding the island are warmer, calmer, and more abundant in food, attracting several species of whales to the area.
Whale watching Gran Canaria best time
The best time of day for whale watching in Gran Canaria is in the morning or early afternoon. During these times, the sea is usually calmer, and the light is optimal for spotting whales from a distance.
Morning tours usually depart at around 9 am. The waters are calmer in the morning, which means less motion on the boat and a more comfortable ride. The air is also cooler in the morning, making it a more pleasant experience for visitors, especially during the hot summer months.
Early afternoon tours, which depart at around 2 pm, are also a good option for whale watching in Gran Canaria. During this time, the sea is usually calm, and the light is still good enough to spot the whales from a distance. Afternoon tours are also an excellent choice for visitors who prefer to sleep in and enjoy a leisurely breakfast before embarking on their adventure.
Whale watching Gran Canaria
Choosing the right boat for a whale watching tour in Gran Canaria can make all the difference in your experience. These are some factors to consider when choosing the best boat for your tour.
- Size of the boat: The size of the boat is an important factor to consider when choosing a tour. Larger boats tend to be more stable and offer more space for passengers to move around. They are also more likely to have amenities such as bathrooms and seating areas. Smaller boats are more maneuverable and can get closer to the marine life. They also offer a more intimate and personalized experience, with fewer passengers on board.
- Type of boat: There are many types of boats in Gran Canaria available for tours. Each type of boat has its advantages and disadvantages, depending on the tour’s purpose and the sea conditions.
- Catamarans are stable and spacious, making them ideal for whale watching tours or larger groups. However, they may not be as fast as other types of boats.
- Speedboats are fast and agile, making them ideal for dolphin watching tours or tours that cover a lot of ground quickly. However, they may not be as stable or comfortable as other types of boats.
- Sailboats offer a relaxing way to tour the coast, and they can often get closer to wildlife without disturbing them.
- Motorboats are versatile and can be used for a variety of tours. They are stable, comfortable, and often have amenities such as bathrooms and seating areas.
- Number of passengers: Depending on your preferences and the number of people in your group, you may prefer to spend a little more money on a quieter boat with fewer people, or save more and be on a more crowded boat. We recommend checking first what is the maximum number of passengers that will be on board so that you are more comfortable.
