Set off from Puerto Calero on the family-run Sea Safaris Lanzarote for a morning at sea aboard the 'PERLA BLANCA I'. Over roughly two to three hours you skim the Atlantic in search of whales, dolphins and other marine life while taking in the raw volcanic coastline—sheer cliffs and long-dormant volcanoes seen from a completely different vantage.
