Duration: 3 hours (approx.)
Location: Gran Canaria, Spain
Product code: 3042LPA28
Transfer from your hotel (Maspalomas area only) to Puerto Rico where you will be welcomed onboard the Spirit of the Sea.
Your two hour cruise is designed to look out for the local aquatic wildlife, and your skipper is in constant contact with other boats for the latest sightings. The Spirit of the Sea is a purpose built dolphin search boat with silenced engines to enable it to get closer to the wildlife, and there are large glass bottom windows in both keels with enough room for 30 people in each glass bottom.
If you have never seen dolphins before this can be a wonderful experience taking in the views of the south of Gran Canaria there are dolphins in the waters of Gran Canaria all year round and as the waters around the canaries are not heavily fished there is a great diversity of cetaceans and other sea creatures.
What can you hope to see? Bottlenose dolphins or small groups of Rough-Toothed dolphins, Striped and Common dolphins. Sometimes the boat is surrounded by Atlantic Spotted dolphins. You may also spot Pilot whales and the rare Beaked whales. At certain times of the year, large whales such as Finback, Sei and Sperm whales pass through the area. Loggerhead turtles are also commonly found.
