We had no idea when we embarked the sailboat of the Third Element Whale Tour that we were in for a treat. In the past we've been on several whale watching tour but we have to tell you, this was our most favorite one.<br /><br />We set out early morning in Los Gigantes, famed for their amazing cliffs and for being a known spot to watch for whales and dolphins, due to the popular feedings grounds of such between La Gomera and Tenerife.<br /><br />The first encounter we had was a with small school of Tursiops, also known as bottlenose dolphins. That was exciting but we totally freaked out when we were surrounded by a school of over 300 Atlantic Spotted Dolphins being all playful, following our boat and jumping out of the water. We've never seen anything like this before.<br /><br />And for the grand finale a group of pilot whales were approaching us, letting us admire them. <br /><br />What an amazing tour and if you're on Tenerife and want to do something truly special, check out the tour by Third Element Charter:<br /><br />https://thirdelementcharters.com/<br /><br />Read all about our time on Tenerife on our Travel Blog:<br /><br />https://tenerife.for91days.com/
