The Experience
Ninety minutes aboard the Biosfera Jet takes you from Puerto del Carmen marina along the west coast of Lanzarote. After a safety briefing, the crew hands out binoculars and begins scanning for dolphins, whales and other marine species. The skipper provides detailed information about the cetaceans you encounter—their behavior, migration patterns and the technical details that separate one species from another—so the sightings become more than just a moment on the water.
Once the boat moves into calmer waters, you get time to swim. Easybreath snorkel masks are provided, letting you breathe naturally at the surface while you look down into the Atlantic. The crew stays nearby, and the pace is unhurried—no rush to move on or get back.
The skipper doubles as your guide and speaks English, Spanish or French depending on the departure you choose. Children from age 3 travel on the boat, though you'll need to arrange your own transport to the Puerto del Carmen marina where the boat departs.

Is this one for you?Book this if you want to search for dolphins and whales from the water rather than watch from a distance—the crew helps you spot them, and the snorkel time lets you see the Atlantic on your own terms. Families with children from age 3 can all travel together, though you'll need to get yourself to Puerto del Carmen marina.
