Whale & Dolphin Watching + Puerto de Mogán Market Tour
Description
Experience the diverse marine life of southern Gran Canaria by reserving a catamaran journey that includes dolphin and whale observation. After your sailing adventure, take the opportunity to wander through the well-known market in Puerto de Mogán at your leisure.
Activity Overview
We'll embark from the Puerto Base in Puerto Rico at the scheduled time. Are you ready to explore the stunning coastline of southern Gran Canaria?
During this two-hour expedition, our goal will be to observe dolphins and whales. This region of the North Atlantic Ocean serves as a prime location for whale sightings, and we will make efforts to approach these magnificent creatures for photo opportunities, all while ensuring we respect their natural environment.
As we navigate the waters between Puerto Rico and Puerto de Mogán, you will enjoy views from the catamaran of several notable landmarks along Gran Canaria’s coastline, including the Playa de Amadores and the cliffs of Taurito.
Our catamaran adventure will conclude in Puerto de Mogán, often referred to as the "Venice of the Canaries" due to its charming canals and pristine white houses accented with colorful trim and vibrant bougainvilleas.
Upon disembarking, you will have approximately 3 hours of free time to explore the renowned market in Puerto de Mogán at your own pace. On Fridays, the market is bustling with various stalls offering clothing, handmade crafts, organic goods, and a selection of local delicacies from the Canary Islands.
At the end of your free time, we will reconvene in the heart of Puerto de Mogán to board a bus for a brief 20-minute ride back to Puerto Rico, where our five-hour experience will come to a close.

The southern coast of Gran Canaria ranks as one of the top locations for observing whales and dolphins. However, keeping in mind that wildlife can be unpredictable, we cannot guarantee sightings. The likelihood of encountering these marine animals is influenced by various factors, including current weather conditions and the breeding cycles of different species.
