Good to Know
🌅This is an early morning tour (06:00 pickup). Dolphins are most active in the early hours, which is why we start early.
🐬Dolphin sightings are very likely but cannot be 100% guaranteed as they are wild animals. Our experienced skippers know exactly where to find them.
👶Suitable for all ages. Life jackets provided. Children are not recommended to swim in the open water.
🐋In winter months (June–September), there’s a chance of spotting humpback and sperm whales using a hydrophone.
