Whale and dolphin watching is a tourist, as well as educational activity. It consists of sailing towards or in the strait of Gibraltar, looking for the different types of whales and dolphins that live or migrate in this area.

The meeting of the Mediterranean sea and the Atlantic ocean offers a unique geographic position for exceptional whale and dolphin watching. The Costa del Sol is part of the migration route for multiple whale species such as Killer Whales, Sperm Whales and Fin Whales. In addition, three different types of dolphins inhabit the recently established Natural Park of the Strait of Gibraltar: Common, Striped and Bottlenose, and they share the habitat with Pilot Whales.
