⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Valentine’s Day Whale Watching Experience! We had the most amazing time on this whale-watching tour in Tenerife—and on Valentine’s Day, no less! Everything about the experience was just perfect. The tours the day before and after were canceled due to high tides and strong winds, but we got incredibly lucky with the weather, and the crew made sure we had the best possible experience. Seeing Pilot whales in the wild was absolutely breathtaking. The boat was comfortable, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the crew was fantastic—super knowledgeable and clearly passionate about marine life. They gave us plenty of time to take it all in while making sure the animals were respected, which we really appreciated. Unlimited drinks were provided which was great add-on. A huge shout-out to Jamie, David, and Eileen these guys were incredible! Friendly, funny, and full of energy, they made the tour so much fun. From sharing cool facts to keeping the vibe upbeat, they really went above and beyond. Big congratulations to them for doing such an amazing job! Plus they took some amazing pictures of us. If you’re in Tenerife and thinking about a whale-watching tour, don’t hesitate—book this one! It was one of the best experiences of our trip, and we’ll never forget this special Valentine’s Day at sea. Highly, highly recommend!

We were only in Tenerife for two days but we knew we wanted to see Los Gigantes. This sailing trip went above and beyond. There were more activities than I anticipated like whale and dolphin watching, ocean life knowledge, snacks, swimming, snorkeling, drinks, and a perfect sandwich to end it. I especially loved how there was a great shaded area on the boat. A necessity if your going to be out there for more than two hours.The Brothers who own the boat and their 3rd crew are super friendly , funny, knowledgable and energetic without going overboard. They recommended food and local wine that we bought afterwards and both were so delicious, he even took the time to write it down for us. The food and alcohol on the boat were the perfect amount. We did see whales on the tour that was amazing and again super knowledgeable. Overall it was an excellent experience that wasn't crowded, we felt super relaxed and at home. The swimming was a great touch, and the homemade sandwiches were perfect to not need to get lunch after. Thank you again guys!

Une équipe parfaite pour découvrir la faune marine depuis Los Gigantes. Merci à eux pour leurs savoirs-faire, leurs explications et leur patience ! Une organisation au top pour une balade en voilier à voir les bicéphales, tortues, poissons, aigles pêcheurs et falaises ! Repas, boissons, encas, masques et tubas, rien ne manquait ! Loin des charters de touristes que nous avons croisé, nous avons pu prendre le temps de parler et échanger avec nos skippers. Et en français, un plus pour les enfants qui n'avaient pas besoin de nos traductions (surtout que traduire un vocabulaire marin sans être marin n'est pas facile... surtout avec mon niveau d'anglais !). Les arrêts aux pieds de la falaise pour observer la faune aquatique sont plutôt agréables. Vers la plage de Masca quelques rares bateaux remplis de touristes mais la plupart du temps plutôt des bateaux avec de petits groupes de 4 à 8 personnes maximum et pas plus de 10/15 bateaux dans une large baie; les fonds sont visibles rapidement et les poissons nombreux. À d'autres endroits si vous le pouvez (a voir avec le skipper) les fonds sont noirs et il faut nager vers les récifs pour commencer à apercevoir les poissons (ne pas regarder les dents de la mer avant !). Le snorkeling est parfait pour cela, pas besoin d'être un pro de la plongée en apnée ! Le bateau est spacieux, avec un pont très bien adapté aux touristes que nous sommes. A l'arrière attablé sous la toile à l'ombre, ou à l'avant sur les coussins au soleil. Et en cabine de l'espace pour ranger ses affaires personnelles et se changer dans les cabines. Bien sûr toilettes, pontons escamotable pour se mettre à l'eau (et échelle pour remonter), bac à chaussures (un bateau c'est pieds nus et c'est tant mieux), et rangement dans la table du pont pour ranger vos affaires à avoir à portée de mains (crème solaire , appareils photo ou smartphone,...). Si certain avis sur d'autre site font de la publicite pour les bateaux à moteur sous prétexte que la voile ne peut suivre un animal marin, c'est oublier que les animaux marin sont ici non pas pour devoir fuir les moteurs mais pour se nourrir ! Et la voile permet une approche beaucoup plus douce au point de rendre curieuses les tortues marines qui s'approchent gentiment ! De même les mammifères marins continuent leurs activités naturelles sans dérangement des moteurs de hors-bord ! Après chacun se fait son propre jugement et je pense que les deux expériences peuvent porter un côté positif ! A vous de choisir en fonction de vos envies, conviction, budget, et temps. En resumé: l'équipe de Third Élément Luxury charters est géniale, devouée, avec un service haut de gamme, avec un traifs raissonable poir la prestation (et francophone). Ne cherchez plus, contactez les et laissez vous tenter, ils connaissent leurs métiers, leur région et leur sympathie est contagieuse ! Bravo à vous

It was an amazing 3 hours trip! Seeing whales just next to us like in a national geographic docu was great! The crew was very friendly and helpful. They could talk in various languages fluently, for example German or French. We got interesting stories and explanations and the pleasant service of free drinks and a sandwich for lunch. In general the atmosphere was very vivid. Each time we saw the whales the crew communicated with the whales in a fun way and you could tell that they love what they do. We got close to some whales and it was just super fun and at the same time relaxing to be there. But you should definitely consider the weather, since the group after us couldn't go because of the rain. The boat was big and stable and there was a place to lay and sit at the very front. The price fits well, the extra space and attention make it worth it. We definitely recommend it!

We had a fantastic whale watching charter with @third_element_charters yesterday. The boat, the crew, and the experience were amazing. We were lucky enough to find a pod of Pilot Whales, including the babies. The food and drink were amazing. Their knowledge & banter was brilliant and we highly recommend booking a trip with them. We enjoyed it that much we have asked to go again (weather allowing) before we go home. We really enjoyed the whole experience. Only 10 people on the boat felt very personal. Snorkelling was great as well under the cliffs 🤎you will nit regret the trip even if you don't see the wild animals #whalewatching #tenerife #yachtcharter #veganfood #veganrecipes #whales #pilotwhales🐳 #sailing #experience #highlyrecommended #experts #Snorkelling

Update Sept. 2024: We have now taken this tour a second time. We gave them 5 stars (again) because 6+ stars isn't allowed. The tour this year was even better. (More whales seen). The rest is the same as last year. Simply wonderful. David & Jaime are wonderful hosts. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Their yacht is lovely. The tour was great and David & Jaime offered refreshments, fruit and sandwiches. In addition to whale watching, they also allow for 20 minutes or so for snorkeling before returning to port. We would absolutely take this tour again the next time we're in the area and we recommend it highly to anyone who wants to go on a whale & dolphin watch with only a small group of people.
