Why book this activity
Choose this SKU if you want a focused wildlife cruise from Puerto Colón and the Shogun boat itself is part of the appeal. The oriental-style teak vessel is much more distinctive than a standard catamaran, but this ticket avoids the longer Los Gigantes route, lunch and swim stop of the separate five-hour Shogun product. That makes it easier to fit around a beach day or a short Costa Adeje itinerary.
Who is it for
Best for couples, families and groups staying in Costa Adeje, Playa de las Américas or nearby south-Tenerife resorts who want a short wildlife-focused cruise rather than a half-day at sea. It also suits travelers interested in the unusual Shogun teak vessel and those who want a Puerto Colón departure with broad guide-language availability. The current product is marked wheelchair accessible, although anyone requiring specific boarding assistance should confirm the practical setup before travel.
Who should skip it
Choose ID78 if you specifically want the five-hour Shogun experience with Los Gigantes, lunch, drinks and a swim stop. Choose a smaller boat if passenger numbers and a quieter atmosphere matter more than the vessel style. Food and drinks are not included in this exact SKU, even though there is a bar onboard. Do not book solely for a guaranteed whale or dolphin sighting; the animals are wild and sightings depend on natural conditions.
What to expect
Arrive at Dock 14 in Puerto Colón, beside the petrol station, around 15 minutes before your selected departure and show your smartphone ticket to the guide.

The cruise lasts approximately two hours aboard the Shogun, an oriental-style sailing vessel built from teak. The route stays focused on the south-west Tenerife whale-watching area rather than continuing to Los Gigantes.

A live guide accompanies the trip while the boat searches for resident pilot whales, dolphins and other possible cetaceans. The whale-watching permit is explicitly included. Wildlife observation should be treated as a natural encounter, so no specific species or sighting can be guaranteed.

There is a bar onboard, but the exact Tiqets inclusion list says food and drinks are excluded, so purchases should be treated as extra. Towels and snorkeling equipment are also excluded.

The boat returns to Puerto Colón after roughly two hours.
