Dolphin Watching by Catamaran in Lanzarote: Info & Prices

At Crazy Canary, we believe that watching whales and dolphins is a powerful way to raise awareness about these incredible creatures. But true observation should go beyond conventional methods — that’s why we choose silent, animal-friendly, carbon-neutral boats to ensure every trip respects both the animals and the environment.

Our partners made history when they proudly launched, in Lanzarote, the first 100% electric catamaran for whale and dolphin watching in the European Union. This achievement makes them pioneers in an industry that had gone over 50 years without innovation.

What to Expect on Your Boat Trip:

Join La Santa María, a 14-metre catamaran that’s completely silent and emission-free, to explore and listen for various whale and dolphin species, including bottlenose dolphins, common dolphins, short-finned pilot whales, and Bryde’s whales:

  • Designed for small groups of up to 12 people, offering a unique and intimate experience.
  • Equipped with a hydrophone and a 360° camera for optimal, immersive viewing once the cetaceans are found
  • The crew includes an English-speaking captain and a guide who’s an expert in whales and dolphins.
  • Guided tour available in English, Spanish, and French.
  • Water, organic drinks, gourmet local snacks and fresh fruit are included for the 4-hour trip, while chips and a drink are provided for the 2.5-hour trip.
  • There is no age restriction to join the tour.
  • Let’s be transparent and honest: cetaceans are wild animals and there’s a chance they may not be visible during your trip. However, thanks to our expert team and respectful approach, we’re proud to have a 70% success rate for sightings — an excellent figure for Lanzarote.
  • There’s always a small risk of disappointment if the cetaceans don’t show up… If you’d prefer an outing where fun is guaranteed — swimming, homemade tapas, a little aperitif and time to relax — then the shared catamaran trip might be a better fit: no dolphin-spotting mission, just a beautiful break at sea, 100% pleasure.

Do you know why dolphins like to swim next to boats?

As the boat moves forward, the water it pushes creates an underwater wave that dolphins use to surf, letting them glide along with minimal effort. But that’s not all — scientists have studied dolphin behaviour when they follow a boat: all kinds of jumps, swimming on their side, sudden U-turns… and why do they do it? Simply to play! Dolphins are like big kids when they spot a boat and just can’t resist coming over for a bit of fun
