What species of dolphins and whales can you see on the excursion?

These are the three species of cetaceans that could cross your path, each with their own secrets and wonders:

🐬 Bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus)

Fun Facts:

• Social and communicative: Bottlenose dolphins use a form of “name” of their own, a unique whistle that allows them to identify each other.
• Underwater tools: In some regions, these dolphins use sea sponges to protect their snouts while foraging for food on the seabed.

🐋 Pilot Whale (Globicephala macrorhynchus)

Fun Facts:

• Strong family bonds: Pilot whales form close-knit matriarchal groups, where calves remain with their mothers throughout their lives.
• Sleep with one eye open: These cetaceans can sleep while swimming, shutting down half their brain at a time to keep moving and breathing.

🐳 Cachalote (Physeter macrocephalus)

Fun Facts:

• Diving champions: Sperm whales are the deepest and longest diving marine mammals, being able to stay underwater for more than an hour.
• Long-distance communication: They use powerful clicks, the loudest sounds produced by a living animal, to communicate and sound in the dark depths of the ocean.

These three species represent just a sample of the rich marine biodiversity that surrounds the Canary Islands. By participating in a Viking cruise in Tenerife, you will not only immerse yourself in Viking history and culture, but also have the opportunity to connect with nature in a deep and meaningful way.
