The following boats all hold the necessary permit from the AROC (Área de Regulación de Observación de Cetáceos), display the official “Barco Azul” (Blue Boat) flag, and are authorized to operate whale-watching excursions in the protected waters between Teno and Rasca. These requirements ensure that operators have received the authorization and follow the basic regulations for cetacean observation.

However, while all registered vessels meet the legal requirements, sustainability practices, group sizes, educational efforts, and on-board guidelines can vary between operators. Operators marked with a ⭐ are recommended by Canary Green because they go beyond the minimum requirements. They are actively supporting marine conservation, prioritizing small groups, and providing a genuinely educational experience on the water.
