Bonadea II Diomedea

Bonadea II Diomedea offers a unique and scientifically grounded way to experience whale and dolphin watching in Tenerife, aboard a vessel purpose-built for low-impact ecotours, while actively contributing to marine conservation and research.

Operating along the southwest coast within the Special Conservation Zone (ZEC) of Teno-Rasca, this experienced team combines over 36 years of maritime heritage with a genuine passion for ocean protection. With certified marine expert and skipper Sergio at the helm, every outing is as educational as it is unforgettable.

Why Choose Bonadea II Diomedea

• Whale and dolphin watching led by a certified marine expert with 36+ years of experience
• Two tour options: intimate group eco-safaris and exclusive private expeditions
• Responsible and respectful approach to marine wildlife within a protected conservation zone
• Small-group tours for a relaxed and privileged encounter with nature
• Underwater hydrophone technology — one of very few operators offering this in Tenerife

Main Highlights of the Experience

• The Eco-Safari Group Experience – A 2-hour intimate excursion along the southwest coast, with group sizes deliberately limited to minimise impact and maximise the quality of each encounter. Guests learn to identify local cetacean species, listen to their underwater clicks and whistles via hydrophone, and gain a deeper understanding of the marine ecosystem.
• Private Cetacean & Seabird Tour – A more exclusive option for up to 6 people, exploring the full ZEC Teno-Rasca conservation area. Ideal for wildlife enthusiasts wanting a deeper, more personal experience with expert guidance throughout.
• Hydrophone Listening – One of very few operators in Tenerife offering real-time underwater sound technology, allowing guests to hear dolphins and pilot whales communicating beneath the surface — a truly unique dimension to the experience.
• Scientific Conservation Work – Bonadea II collaborates actively with institutions including the ULL and ULPGC universities, Asociación Tonina, Calderones de Canarias, Innoceana, Angel Shark Project, and others. Each outing contributes to marine population monitoring and ecosystem research.
• Ocean Clean-Up Commitment – On every expedition the crew collects marine plastic waste, reinforcing their role as daily guardians of the Atlantic.
• Wildlife Rescue Collaboration – The team works closely with the Centro de Recuperación de Fauna Silvestre La Tahonilla (Cabildo de Tenerife) on the rescue, rehabilitation, and release of sea turtles and seabirds.

If you’re looking for a whale watching experience in Tenerife led by genuine marine experts, grounded in science, and committed to protecting the ocean — not just visiting it — Bonadea II Diomedea is an outstanding choice.
