Watch marine life from below the waterline, then jump in

The Odyssee 3 glass bottom boat tour in Fuerteventura takes you along the coast and into the Natural Park of Jandía, where you descend to an underwater viewing chamber to see fish, turtles, dolphins and whales, then anchor for water activities (snorkeling, kayaking, a water slide, paddleboard), and Canarian lunch. The boat holds a blue flag certification for cetacean sightings. Children from age 3 are welcome. Guides speak English, Spanish, Italian, French and one additional language. The tour runs 4 hours and includes pickup, snorkeling gear, kayak and paddleboard use, lunch and an open bar with beer and sangria.

The experience

What makes this tour different from a standard sightseeing boat is the glass bottom: instead of staying on deck, you walk down into the Odyssee 3's underwater viewing area to watch the marine life pass by at eye level. The boat follows the most beautiful beaches of Fuerteventura and moves into the Natural Park of Jandía, where sightings of dolphins, whales, sea turtles and varieties of fish are possible. Even small children get to visit the cockpit: a moment many families say they remember long after the trip ends.

Once the boat anchors, the water activities begin. You can snorkel with provided equipment, paddle out on a kayak or paddleboard, slide down the boat's water slide, or take a fast boat excursion if you want speed. If you'd rather stay dry, you can relax in the sun. A Canarian lunch and open bar with beer and sangria are served during this stop, so you eat and drink without leaving the boat. The crew finishes the day with a farewell dance: a small ritual that marks the end of the trip.

Pickup is included from your accommodation, and the tour accommodates wheelchairs and strollers. Infants sit on an adult's lap. The guides speak multiple languages and brief you on safety and the day's plan before departure, so you know what to expect at each stage.
