Itinerary
Meeting time at 6:45 a.m. in Black River. At 7 a.m. you will leave on one of our speed boats for an unforgettable encounter. You will observe wild dolphins in their natural environment. If the conditions are right, you can also swim with them, accompanied by a skipper (max 2 persons at a time). We will first explain you the rules for a respectful encounter with the dolphins. The first part of this excursion ends with a snorkeling on the coral reef. Then it is time to go observe the whales. With the help of a hydrophone, our crew will try to localize them. Sperm whales can be observed all year round while humpback whales can be observed between June and October. Water and soft drinks will be served during the trip. Return around 12:30 p.m. We guarantee a 60% chance to see the whales.
