Visiting Tenerife? Whale watching and a day trip to La Gomera

Visiting Tenerife? Whale watching and a day trip to La Gomera

If you’re planning a Tenerife holiday, whale watching and a trip to La Gomera are two experiences to consider.

A whale-watching boat trip is a chance to see marine wildlife in its natural habitat and enjoy Tenerife’s coastline from the water. Choose a licensed operator that respects the animals, and remember that sightings are never guaranteed.

For a change of scenery, take a day trip to La Gomera. Its mountain villages, dramatic valleys and forests offer a different side of the Canary Islands. A guided tour can help you explore if you’d rather leave the transport and route planning to someone else.

Have you tried either? Would you choose a day at sea or a day exploring La Gomera?

Christmas Visit/Siam Park

My wife and I lost our son earlier this year and are despairing at the idea of a normal Christmas. We were in Tenerife last month and fell in love with the place.

Do folks think Tenerife would be a good place to get winter sun and escape the traditional family/Santa/Jesus vibe? We’re also considering North Africa to avoid Christian countries, thinking they’d have less Christmas stuff on.

We thought Siam Park on Christmas Day might be a fun distraction. Does there tend to be many families there that day? We’re thinking local families may be at home together on Christmas.
