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 to feel it.
Briefing done, drink in hand 🧐 "Okay, so where exactly are these whales hiding? Any minute now, right?"
Ali Na Tenerifih Obstaja Opazovanje Kitov Z Garancijo Vračila Denarja?
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.
Če so torej kiti vaša prednostna naloga, svojega počitniškega denarja ne zapravljate. Ta brezskrbnost je natanko razlog, zakaj toliko gostov izbere to ladjo namesto cenejše poti brez zagotovila.
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.

- 6The Sail Home
Sandwiches, Snacks And Drinks
The hostess serves fresh food while you cruise back along the coast, glass in hand.
Swim Break In A Calm Bay
Po divjih živalih se čoln zasidra pri 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.
Cool off, not coral 💦 The stop is about a lovely swim in calm water. Snorkel gear is on board, but do not expect a reef.
Hrana in pijača na ladji
While you relax, the hostess serves fresh sandwiches with several fillings, plus snacks. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are available on request, just let us know when booking. Drinks are unlimited too: water, soft drinks, wine, beer, sangria and cava. It is not a fancy buffet, but it is fresh, good, and there is plenty.
Fresh, good, plenty 🥪 Sandwiches with several fillings, snacks, and unlimited drinks, wine, sangria and cava included.
Ena Iskrena Resnica O Izletih Z Ladjo Na Tenerifih
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. 12:30 in 15:30 vožnji sta najbolj sproščeni, običajno je na ladji večinoma odraslih. Mehke blazine, neomejeno pijačo in ocean samo za vas. Uporabljene so bile celo za zaroke, čeprav bi vas za tisti trenutek usmerili na zasebni izlet ob sončnem zahodu.
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.
Odgovorno Opazovanje Kitov Na Tenerifih
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, pomagamo hitro.
V čem se izlet Atlantic Star razlikuje od drugih izletov za opazovanje kitov na Tenerifeju?
Dve veliki stvari. Prvič, traja samo 10 gostov, zato se zdi osebno in mirno, ne kot poln katamaran s 100 turisti. Drugič, to je edina ladja na Tenerifih, kamor lahko dodate garancija vračila denarja za opazovanje kitov. Majhna skupina, velika možnost za opazovanje kitov, vaš denar pa je zaščiten. Ta kombinacija je drugje na otoku težko najti.
Ali obstaja tura za opazovanje kitov na Tenerifih z garancijo vračila denarja?
Ja, in to je ta. Za 15€ na osebo Lahko dodate garancijo. Če ne boste videli kitov ali delfinov, boste dobili nazaj denar za izlet (minus majhna zavarovalna premija) ali pa se brezplačno udeležite drugega izleta. Večina ladij tega ne ponuja, ker niso dovolj samozavestne. Ladja Atlantic Star pa to lahko ponudi, saj se opazovanja zgodijo skoraj na vsakem izletu.
Ali bom v resnici videl kite ali delfine na Tenerifih?
Zelo verjetno, da. Na Tenerifeju živijo stalni populaciji pilotnih kitov, ki se zadržujejo ob južni obali skozi vse leto, zato so tam prisotni v vseh letnih časih. Najpogosteje boste videli pilotne kite, včasih pa tudi igrive delfine pliskavce. V naravi nič ni 100% gotovo, prav zato obstaja izbirna garancija. Če vam je pomembno, da jih vidite, jo dodajte in se sprostite.
Zakaj velika podjetja, kot so turistični operaterji ali hoteli, ne prodajajo majhnega čolna za opazovanje kitov, kot je ta?
Preprosto: gre za obseg. Veliki organizatorji potovanj in hotelske recepcije prodajo na dan na stotine mest, zato potrebujejo velike ladje, ki sprejmejo več kot 100 ljudi. Organiziranje majhnih, osebnih izletov za le 10 gostov je za njih na takšni ravni preveč zapleteno, zato se po navadi zatečejo k velikim katamaranom. Ni tako, da bi bila majhna ladja slabše kakovosti, ravno nasprotno. Lokalno podjetje, kot je Club Canary, lahko organizira majhna, osebna potovanja, s katerimi se veliki akterji preprosto ne želijo ukvarjati. Zato se zdi, da gre za skriti dragulj.
Je ta majhna skupinska tura opazovanja kitov zakonita in licencirana?
100%. Plovilo Atlantic Star ima uradno licenco za opazovanje kitov, kar označuje rumena zastava z modrim logotipom ladje. Gre za popolnoma zakonit in uveljavljen izlet, ki se začne na ladji Puerto Colón. Nekateri ob pogledu na majhno ladjo z garancijo pomislijo, da je to preveč lepo, da bi bilo res, vendar je vse popolnoma zakonito. Preprosto dobite boljšo, osebnejšo različico istega zakonitega opazovanja kitov, z ustreznimi dovoljenji in izkušeno lokalno posadko.
Ali je Atlantic Star primeren za opazovanje kitov z otroki in družinami?
Da, družine ga imajo rade. 09:30 potovanje je običajno najboljša za otroke. Ladja je stabilna in se ne nagne močno, na krovu so rešilni jopiči, posadka pa se pogosto pogovarja in igra z otroki, da se lahko starši sprostijo. Starost otrok je od 1 do 9 let, dojenčki, mlajši od 1 leta, pa se pridružijo brezplačno (prosimo, upoštevajte to ob rezervaciji). Je mirna in prijetna, ne hrupna ladja za zabave, kot nalašč za sproščujoč družinski dan na morju. Na tej strani ne boste videli fotografij otrok, namerno jih ne objavljamo na naši spletni strani zaradi njihove zasebnosti, spodaj pa boste našli veliko resničnih družinskih ocen gostov, ki so z veseljem delili svoje izkušnje.
Je to dober izlet z ladjo za opazovanje kitov za pare?
Zelo. The 12:30 in 15:30 izleti so najbolj sproščeni, običajno večinoma odrasli. Mehke blazine, neomejeno pijače, ocean samo za vas. Rezervirano je bilo celo za zaroke. Če želite tisti poseben trenutek, povprašajte nas o zasebni izlet ob sončnem zahodu.
Kaj je vključeno v izlet za opazovanje kitov in delfinov Atlantic Star?
Veliko za ceno: neomejeno pijače (brezalkoholne pijače, vino, pivo, sangrija in cava), sveži sendviči in prigrizki (na zahtevo na voljo tudi vegetarijanske in brezglutenske možnosti), postanek za plavanje in potapljanje z opremo ter prijazna, izkušena posadka. Jamstvo za opazovanje kitov je edini dodatek, ki ga je treba doplačati, 15 € na osebo.
Kaj se zgodi, če mi postane na ladji slabo od morske bolezni?
Večina ljudi se počuti dobro. Ladja ostane blizu obale (vedno vidiš kopno), pot traja samo približno 3 ure, jadrnica pa se premika nežno. Da bi bili varni: pred potovanjem nekaj pojejte, preden se vkrcate izpustite alkohol in vzemite tableto proti potovalni slabosti 30 minut pred vkrcanjem. Če ste občutljivi, sedite zadaj, kjer je najmanj gibanja. Kopanje ob valobranu vas običajno hitro popravi.
Ali je snorkljanje na tem potovanju dobro?
Bodimo pošteni: postanek za kopanje je bolj namenjen ohlajanju in sprostitvi v mirnem zalivu kot pa snorkljanju svetovnega razreda. Na ladji je na voljo oprema, če jo želite, vendar ne pričakujte koralnega grebena, polnega rib. Pridite zaradi prijetnega skoka v vodo in miru, morebitne ribe, ki jih boste opazili, pa obravnavajte kot dodaten bonus.
Od kod na Tenerifih odhaja avtobus Atlantic Star?
From Vrata 0 na Puerto Colón, v Costa Adeje, pred restavracijo Yubari sushi. Omogoča kratek sprehod ali hiter taksi iz Costa Adeje in Playa de las Américas. Na voljo je parkirišče v pristanišču (približno 1,20 € na uro), vaš vodnik pa vas bo pričakal na vratih in vas pospremil do čolna.
Koledar prikazuje omejeno ali razprodano, ali lahko še vedno rezerviram v zadnjem trenutku?
Mogoče, zato se splača vprašati. Naš spletni koledar namreč ni vedno popolnoma ažuren, za kar se opravičujemo. Če se vam kateri datum zdi omejen ali poln, ali če želite rezervirati v zadnjem trenutku, Najprej nam pošljite sporočilo na WhatsApp da preverimo dejansko razpoložljivost. Pogosto vas še lahko sprejmemo, še posebej, če lahko združimo skupine. V glavni sezoni priporočamo rezervacijo nekaj dni vnaprej, da ste na varnem.
Ali lahko rezerviram let Atlantic Star zasebno za svojo skupino?
Da. Celoten čoln lahko najamete samo za svojo skupino, kar je priljubljeno za družine, praznovanja in zaroke. Oglejte si naš zasebni čarter Atlantic Star, ali nam pošljite sporočilo in uredili bomo.
Rezervacija v zadnjem trenutku ali omejen datum? Vedno preverite dejansko razpoložljivost pri nas, pogosto vas lahko še vedno sprejmemo.
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 in plačilo
Svoj prostor si lahko rezervirate z majhnim pologom prek Club Canary, preostanek pa poravnate na dan dogodka, na krovu. Polog vam zagotavlja mesto, vendar ne krije izgube mesta, če se ne pojavite.
Odpoved in prestavitev
Posamezniki in manjše skupine (do 4 osebe): brezplačne spremembe ali odpovedi do 24 ur pred potovanjem.
Večje skupine (5 ali več): za brezplačne spremembe ali odpovedi potrebujemo 48 ur predhodnega obvestila. Kontakt office@clubcanary.com.
Pozna odpoved in neudeležba
Za odpovedi zunaj brezplačnega roka, vendar več kot 6 ur pred prihodom (24 ur za večje skupine), se zaračuna 50% predvidenega zneska.
V primeru neprihoda se zaračuna 100% preostalega zneska.
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.
Vremenske razmere in razmere na morju
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)
Garancija zajema kite in delfine: zagotovljeno vam je, da boste videli vsaj eno od teh dveh vrst, ne nujno obeh. Pogosto gostje vidijo obe vrsti. Specifičnih vrst ne moremo zagotoviti, najpogostejši pa so pilotni kiti. Več o pilotih kitih.
Gre za divje živali. Opazitev, celo plavuti, ki jo opaziš v razdalji 30 metrov, šteje kot uspešna opazitev.
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.
Če zaradi slabega vremena pride do spremembe poti ali skrajšanja potovanja, garancija ne velja. Rešitve se dogovorijo z vodjo.
Garancija velja za standardno potovanje, ne za spremembe, povzročene zaradi bolezni, nesreč, ali nenadnih vremenskih sprememb.
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.
Odgovornost in ravnanje
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.

Iskreno Mnenje Club Canary
Iskreno od vašega lokalnega moštva z Kanarskih otokov
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.
