Sunset catamaran in Lanzarote: dolphins and mojitos

Two hours on the water, watching the sun drop behind the island

A two-hour catamaran ride from Puerto del Carmen along Lanzarote's southern coast combines sunset views with dolphin watching in their natural habitat. You board with a welcome mojito, then enjoy canapés and a choice of beer, sangria, soft drinks or water as the crossing unfolds. Pickup service is available as an option; public transport reaches the meeting point.

The Experience

The catamaran leaves Puerto del Carmen and heads south along the coast as the light starts to shift. You arrive with a mojito already waiting, and the crossing itself is the point—the search for dolphins happens in real time, but the real draw is the sun setting over open water. Dolphins are wild animals, so sightings are never guaranteed, but the spectacle of the sky changing color is what makes the two hours hold together.

During the ride, canapés come out and you choose your drink: beer, sangria, soft drinks or water. The boat stays on the water long enough to watch the sun actually disappear, not just approach the horizon. The whole thing takes two hours from start to finish.

You can arrange pickup service when you book, or head straight to Puerto del Carmen on your own—public transport options are nearby if you're staying in the area. Either way, you board from the same point and the crossing is the same.

What’s included

Top questions

Can I get picked up from my hotel for this sunset catamaran?

Pickup service is available as an optional add-on at checkout. If you choose it, the driver collects you and brings you to Puerto del Carmen before the departure. Without it, you arrange your own transport to the meeting point.

What happens if we don't see dolphins on the catamaran?

Dolphins are wild animals, so sightings cannot be guaranteed. The sunset itself is the main event—the changing sky and the two hours on the water are what you're paying for, whether dolphins appear or not.

What drinks and food are included on the ride?

A welcome mojito arrives when you board, followed by canapés during the crossing. You then choose one drink from beer, sangria, soft drinks or water to enjoy as the sun sets.

How long does the whole catamaran experience take?

The crossing lasts two hours from departure to return. If you add pickup service, allow extra time for collection from your hotel before heading to Puerto del Carmen.

Is this catamaran suitable if I'm not very fit?

The tour is suitable for all physical fitness levels. You spend the time on board the catamaran, so there is no hiking, climbing or strenuous activity involved.
