⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Sailing Experience with Galatea Sailing – and Incredible Whale Sightings! - Our trip with Galatea Sailing was truly outstanding from start to finish. The highlight of the day was undoubtedly the unforgettable whale‑watching experience—seeing these majestic animals up close in their natural environment was absolutely magical. A special shout‑out goes to Patrick, who was an exceptional sailor throughout the entire journey. His skill, professionalism, and calm confidence on the water made us feel safe and completely looked after. Patrick’s deep knowledge of the sea and marine life added so much to the experience, and his genuine enthusiasm made the whale sightings even more memorable. The boat was beautifully maintained, comfortable, and perfectly prepared for a day out on the water. From breathtaking views to incredible wildlife moments, everything was handled with care and attention to detail. This was one of those rare experiences you know you’ll remember for a long time. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a first‑class sailing adventure with a truly outstanding crew.

Beautiful moment in love - Wonderful time for our wedding anniversary at sunset. Too bad for the Calima, which stayed all week, and which did not allow us to see the sun fall into the sea, but we enjoyed this moment well in love. Special thanks to Patrick for showing us a fantastic and quiet corner, perfect for an intimate moment. See you soon, Paddy! XO

Wonderful - Booked this for us and our kids, with the hope of seeing whales. This was an amazing morning. Patrick 🇮🇪 was a wonderful host and captain. He made us feel welcome and put us all at ease with great banter. The boat was perfect. We were very lucky to see lots of things on a beautiful day. If you get a chance book this! It was worth every euro. An experience we will never forget.

The most laid-back, chilled private charter in Tenerife 😎 - We went out on a private charter with Patrick at sunset time. Highly recommend Patrick and his boat 👌 We have been out to sea in Tenerife many times but they have never been as relaxed as this one. We played our own music, had a few drinks and were able to chill out without being squashed up with strangers! We sailed out at 7pm to a nice little spot (La Caletta). Patrick makes a fab little picnic too! If you want a private charter with a relaxed, friendly captain, then you wont be disappointed 🙂

Wonderful experience with the pilot whales. Thank you Patrick. - We have really enjoyed our trip onto the sea with Patrick, our Irish captain, a very professional gentleman sailor who instill a relax ambiance on board. The boat is perfectly sized for a small group or a family. We have been lucky to watch the pilot whales swimming close to the boat. A wonderful experience. We definitely recommend this trip.

Afternoon whale watching - Captain Patrick took my family of 7 out for an afternoon to see the pilot whales and then on to a beautiful swimming spot with lunch, cannot thank captain enough for an amazing afternoon, very experienced sailor with a hive of information to keep up with my 5 children’s questions he was being bombarding with, had a great laugh will definitely be booking another trip soon

Amazing sunset trip perfect for a proposal - Went on the Galatea on Wednesday evening for the sunset tour with another couple who proposed whilst on the boat , perfect setting and amazing trip. It was perfect! The captain was fantastic couldn’t ask for better had a right laugh and made the evening so special for them as she said yes! Would highly recommend booking this amazing experience.

A Must Do! - Ami took us out for three hours which included whale watching, unlimited drinks, a sandwich lunch and a chance to swim in a cove. We had a fantastic time. Pilot whales made an appearance which was amazing! Ami was very informative as well as being entertaining with a great sense of humour. Definitely a highlight of our holiday.

Nice boat trip but we didn't see any whales - We booked this tour with great enthusiasm, but the experience proved disappointing. Despite the price of the performance, we did not see any whales. We are aware that nature is unpredictable, but we would have appreciated a commercial gesture or a reduction proposal for a future outing, which was not the case. Too bad.
