Friendly, knowledgeable hosts who make this trip a fantastic experience which I would definitely recommend.
A fabulous sailing trip with excellent hosts Jamie and Eileen who were friendly and knowledgeable, making us feel comfortable and safe at all times. We were super lucky to see a pod of Pilot Whales and their calves swimming close to the yacht. Next, we anchored in a sheltered spot for some swimming/snorkeling followed by tasty snacks and some chilled white wine. We really enjoyed our sailing excursion and would definitely recommend.
Die Tour mit David, Jaime & Eileen war super! Wir haben mehrere Grindwale und Delfine gesehen und die drei haben uns sehr viel über die Tiere erzählt & generell Tipps für die Insel gegeben. Wir haben auch einen Schnorchelstopp eingelegt (Wassertemperatur war noch okay - unbedingt reingehen - viele Fische) und es gab leckere Sandwich, Obst und Getränke. Können wir definitiv empfehlen, vielen Dank! :)
On 4. November 2025 we had an unforgetable boat trip with the crew of Third elements. It was a advisable exspirience lasting 3 hours in front of Los Gigantes. With a small tour group we had a very informative excursion on a very well-maintained boat, the crew looked after us very well and was very pleasant to communicate with. We can only recommend Third Elements without any restrictions
Ein unvergessliches Erlebnis!
Wir haben auf unserer Tour mit der Crew Kanarische Grintwale gesehen. Eileen hat ein unglaubliches Wissen über die Tiere und deren Lebensraum und ist zudem ein wahres Kommunikationstalent.
Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt und wir werden diesen Tag nie vergessen.
Ganz vielen Dank an die Crew für diesen schönen Tag!
Liebe Eileen, es war ein wunderschöner super organisierter Ausflug. Wir konnten unter anderen Grindwale beobachten und ihr habt uns viel dazu erklärt. Zum Abschluss waren wir noch schnorcheln. Es gab Getränke, leckere Sandwiches und Obst. Wir hatten einen tollen Nachmittag. Vielen Dank nochmals dafür.
5 out of 5. no notes.
it’s owner run which means they really care about the boat, animals, and staff. you can tell they love what they do. they’re super tolerant with kids and managed my sons sea sickness well and my teenagers ability to be unimpressed by very few things.
I really love animals and it’s important to me that the boats I use respect them and are aware of their safety and stress- and they were really good at ensuring that as well.
An unforgettable excursion
We had a wonderful trip. The crew is really great. All very friendly, nice and super funny. Because of the small group it was very familiar. There were snacks and sandwiches as well as drinks. We've seen dolphins and whales. Really a great day..Always happy to.
Dear Eileen, dear David!
This was an amazing experience! We enjoyed every minute of the 3 hour trip to see the pilot whales. Your warm welcome and the relaxed atmosphere on board made us feel very comfortable. Thank you for sharing your expertise (in Spanish, English, German, ... simultaneously ;o)), your passion for the whales and the respectful interaction with nature.
With max 10 guests on the boat it is enough space for everyone - in the sunbeds or in the shadow of the sunroof - not comparable to other trips where you are packed like sardines. Eileens kind service, beverages, fruits & sandwiches included.
The jump into the sea in front of the magificent rocks of Los Gigantes was a refreshing addition at the end of the tour.
Thanks again and all the best for your future adventures - pls keep us posted ... Stefan
Ein absolut unvergessliches Erlebnis! 🐋💙
Der Bootsausflug mit Third Elements in Los Gigantes war einfach traumhaft. Die Crew war unglaublich herzlich, professionell und hat sich so viel Zeit genommen, uns alles über die Wale und Delfine zu erklären. Wir hatten das große Glück, mehrere Wale aus nächster Nähe zu sehen – ein wirklich magischer Moment!
Nach dem Whale Watching gab es noch einen Stopp in einer wunderschönen Bucht zum Schwimmen – mit Blick auf die beeindruckenden Klippen von Los Gigantes. Das Wasser war glasklar – einfach herrlich!
Man merkt, dass hier echte Leidenschaft und Respekt für die Tiere und das Meer dahintersteckt. 🌊
Ich kann diesen Ausflug von Herzen weiterempfehlen – es war einer der schönsten Tage unseres Urlaubs! ❤️

We had a truly wonderful time on the boat with the Third Element Crew.
The crew was extremely friendly, and we were able to communicate comfortably in German with Aylin, which made everything easy to understand. Her teammate’s English was also very clear and easy to follow.
We chose the 9:45 a.m. tour, and during our trip the sea was very calm and the weather was perfect. After a short while, we stopped at several spots where pilot whales were resting. A few of them were already awake, moving peacefully at a slow pace.
Next, we headed to the reef for some snorkeling.
During our time on board, there was a great selection of drinks available, and we were also served a delicious sandwich.
We thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience and can warmly recommend the Third Element Crew to anyone looking for a relaxed and memorable trip.
My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful sunny morning on board with the team of Third Element – up close with pilot whales, snorkeling off Los Gigantes, super-delicious sandwiches, and an early glass of wine.
You can tell how passionate the team is about their work, without ever disturbing the whales. They offer them enough space and prefer to wait for the animals to become curious and to approach us on their own. The boat is very modern, absolutely clean, and everyone is just friendly and cheerful. Special thanks to the lovely Eileen, who provided us with lots of little stories and background information. We happily followed some of her culinary advice for Tenerife^^
I can highly recommend Third Element Charters for an all-round satisfying whale watching experience – especially if you’re looking for an experience that centres around the welfare of the animals.
Anytime again!!!
Small group (9 people) and therefore plenty of space for everyone. Super friendly and open-minded crew. Lots of important and exciting information. Every question was answered patiently. Always with the right humor. And then the most important thing: We've seen a lot of Grind whales. With the necessary distance and respect. That's more than impressive. Every euro is worth it.
