4 Dolphin Watching in Lanzarote Worth a Slot This Trip

1.Dolphin-Watching Sunset Cruise with Transfers

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 2,435 reviews · 2 hours · from $60Our pick

Sail from Puerto del Carmen on a spacious catamaran during golden hour. You get a welcome mojito, snacks, and one included drink, with beer, wine, cocktails, and soft drinks often available onboard. Guides speak English, Spanish, French, German, and Italian. Dolphin sightings are possible but never guaranteed.

“The boar was lovely with plenty of seating. The welcome drinks and food were great. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The views were brilliant. There was some confusion about whether a passport was needed (it wasn't despite email saying it was) which caused some concerns but it was a brilliant day and good value for money. I would highly recommend.”
