Whale and dolphin watching are very popular off the shores of La Palma. You can see a wide variety of both species all year round here. You can also see turtles, sharks and flying fishes.
Try swimming with a dolphin! It's an amazing experience seeing these fascinating creatures close up. In Tazacorte, you can book a catamaran trip where you're almost guaranteed to see dolphins or whales.
Organised tours normally take between two and four hours. You'll get to see the spectacular coastline of La Palma and some of its amazing marine wildlife. You can explore the breathtaking view through the underwater side windows. Sometimes it's just a quick view, sometimes it's hundreds of them...
Remember to book in advance. These excursions are very popular with families. Prices range from 15 euros for a two hour trip to 36 euros for a 4.5 hour trip. For kids, it's about 10 and 20 euros for the above.
