Descripción
Oceanexplorer is a company based in El Puerto de Tazacorte on the island of La Palma since 2002. We offer two types of excursions:
Take a trip in our traditional boat the BUSSARD along the romantic coast of La Palma.
With an intimate group of up to 12 guests you always have enough room to relax and sunbath on our ample deck or of course to cool off in the shade.
Join us on one of the most beautiful boats of the Canaries and make time for an unforgettable trip on your holiday.
The other Tour goes on the route of the whales with our boat the Inia.
In an approx. 2-hour tour in our boats the INIA 1+2 we cover a large sighting area and
therefore have reached a sighting rate during the last few years of approximately 90%.
