Whale & Dolphin Excursions in Tenerife

Freebird Sailing was launched in 1994 and was the first luxury catamaran company to offer cruises with the opportunity to see the resident whales and dolphins. Its aim was to provide a unique experience, not just an excursion.

Freebird Sailing pioneered partnerships with tour operators and local businesses, being the first catamaran company to work directly with them. The Freebird brand has a proven track record and is recognised for providing a first class service, having received many accreditations and awards. High demand has resulted in the company expanding to become the largest catamaran service in the Canary Islands with over 1.2 million passengers to date.

That’s what Freebird thought when they heard about an Atlantic rowing challenge to raise money for Orobal (www.orobal.org ) a Los Cristianos based charity to help physically and mentally handicapped children.

Freebird in tune with the song of the sea

If you were asked to describe the attractions of Tenerife in two words, you might well plump for sun and sea, so if you get the chance to combine the two, it has to be worth taking....

Freebird Two sends the senses soaring

Tenerife is surrounded by the sea, peppered with ports and marinas, and served by a huge flotilla of boats, ships and anything else big enough to float and transport curious visitors to sample the delights of nature. It takes a pretty special excursion to impress a cynical old sea dog like myself, but the Freebird two, whale and dolphin trip packs in the pleasures and entertains and informs in a three hour spectacular.....

Watching the Freebird, a dolphins eye view

It’s not easy being a dolphin, our water is polluted, we are hunted by fishing fleets and even finding enough food for ourselves is getting harder all the time. There is still one pleasure left to us though, people watching, and luckily Freebird catamarans are constant visitors to our waters, just off the coast of Tenerife.....
