FAQ
Is Barco Pirata Peter Pan suitable for young children?
That is what it is built for. The pirate theme carries a trip that otherwise covers the same channel and the same resident whales and dolphins as the quieter boats on this coast.
Where does the Peter Pan boat sail from?
The harbour at Los Cristianos on the south coast, rather than the marinas further north around Costa Adeje. Los Cristianos is walkable from much of the resort and is also the ferry port for the western islands.
Do you still see whales on a pirate boat trip?
Yes. It works the same channel towards La Gomera where the pilot whales and bottlenose dolphins are resident all year, so the sightings are the same ones the quieter boats go out for.
Is there a version without the pirate theme?
The same operator runs excursions under its yacht name, which is worth asking about when booking for a group of adults who want the sailing on its own.
How long is a whale watching trip from Los Cristianos?
Trips on this coast run from around two hours up to a full day with lunch and a swim stop. The shorter ones reach the resident animals; the longer ones add coastline and time in the water.
How do I book the Peter Pan boat in Tenerife?
Through the operator directly. Family sailings fill first in school holidays, and the winter months are the island's peak rather than its quiet season, so booking ahead is worth it then.
