    Management outing in Los Gigantes

    Management of Pearly Grey went out for a teambuilding session for the day, on self drive zodiac boats along the cliffs of Los Gigantes. These boats reach a maximum speed of 70 km/hr and no drivers license needed.

    Wonderful experience with lots of fun. Saw dolphins and flying fish.

    Finished off the trip with a great lunch.

    Dougies Diary - Hijacked at Sea!

    Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

    Hi Everyone.

    This is Sarah and I’m the latest person to hijack Dougies Diary as he still has the hump !!!


    Sunday 17th May 2009, a group from Pearly Grey set sail for 3 hours in search of the Whales and Dolphins off the coast of Tenerife. The atmosphere was electric, couples and families alike wondering what the next few hours would bring. Once on board, the crew were amazing, giving loads of information about the local marine life in a multitude of languages.

    After being at sea for only a short time the boat erupted with activity, and the first whales had been spotted. A group of about five Short Finned Pilot Whales just lazing around without a care in the world. It almost felt like they were posing for the cameras and once everyone had the perfect shot they dove down and vanished. They were not the only whales to be seen, shortly after another pod of seven appeared, some coming right up to the boat. The sight of these amazing mammals was breathtaking, looking into the crystal clear Atlantic Ocean and seeing them swimming freely with no constraints could warm any heart.

    After a couple of hours at sea the coast line started to look rather familiar, and out of almost nowhere a small voice shouted, “There’s Pearly Grey! “ and as we all looked to the right, there she was appearing out of the cliff face.

    As we sailed past the fish farms off the coast of Pearly Grey, four fins cut through the water at quite a speed stopping for only a moment for us to see they were Bottle Nosed Dolphins. This was truly amazing.

    We headed back along the coast and dropped anchor off Spaghetti Bay, where we were given the chance to cool off with a dip in the ocean. The crew informed us that the temperature was in the region of 19 degrees, so three of our group chose to jump off the boat, much to the amusement of the rest of the group.

    David Easterbrook, daughter, and ME!

    What better way to finish a perfect day than a gentle sail back to Puerto Colon?

    PG Owners Peter & Catherine Spiers

    The whole day from start to finish was filled with the sound of laughter and wonder, in the company of amazing people on a great boat.
