Swim With Wild Dolphins
Swim With Wild Dolphins
About
This is an incredible tour - it starts with a light continental breakfast as you get a briefing about the dolphins, where you'll learn about their biology, life and behavior. Then onto the water in search of surface splashes, dorsal fins and other signs of the dolphins.
Once the pod is located the boat will get in close proximity. As the dolphins swim and frolic around the boat you can listen to their unique communication sounds through the hydrophone on board. If the dolphins' mood is right, you will likely have the opportunity to put on a snorkeling mask and snorkel with the pod.
You may also see Humpback Whales (Dec-Mar), Spinner Dolphins, Rough Toothed Dolphins, giant mantas and marine turtles and with luck Orcas or False Orcas.
Your guides are specialists in cetaceans, Biologists with Masters Degree in Marine Ecology, Science Journalist and a Professional Wildlife Photographer (National Geographic magazine and Animal Planet). Thanks to your guides’ thorough knowledge and research they can 100% guarantee that you will see dolphins but it is up to to dolphins whether they will swim with you.
