Dolphin and whale spotting

Where to see cetaceans around La Gomera

The waters that link La Gomera and its neighbour, Tenerife, have been declared the first Whale Heritage Site in all of Europe. Excursions organised by qualified professionals leave from Valle Gran Rey, offering the chance to watch a range of cetaceans from close quarters but with respect - bottlenose dolphins, pantropical spotted dolphins, rough-toothed dolphins, sperm whales, rorqual whales or short-finned pilot whales, one of the species that resides in these waters permanently. Find out where to see cetaceans in La Gomera and immerse yourself in the customs of these incredible beings with whom we share the ocean.
