Cần Quan Tâm
Once you arrive, you will get on board the speedboat, and the professional and qualified skippers will start by briefing you on the most important aspects of this experience, including: - The types of dolphins that you will encounter and their habits - Guidelines for sustainable dolphin watching - Security measures on the boat - Swimming procedures *Note: The time and order of the dolphin swim and whale watching may vary depending on the behaviour of the animals. You will then head to Tamarin Bay for the dolphin encounter. The skippers will accompany you in the water when it’s your turn to swim with the dolphins. You will have the chance to view and swim with the dolphins on the open sea. Depending on the amount of time left, you will then go to The Aquarium, a popular snorkelling and diving site with beautiful coral and tropical fish. Next, start your whale watching tour on the open seas to view these magnificent marine mammals in their natural habitat. Humpback whales can be sighted off the Mauritian coast between July and September/October when they move from the South pole to warmer seas near the equator, while the Sperm whales can be observed all year round.

5.00It's a great way to see dolphins in the wild. You need to be quick when they say go, go. Look down and they [dolphins] go past quickly. Then back on boat and move to do it again. Need to be confident swimmer if you are jumping in but you can stay on boat and see from above. We were lucky to see whales too, mother and two babies. There are a lot of other boats but the experience was great 👍.

3.00We saw one whale and some dolphins, but when we went to do the snorkeling we finish to early. It supoust to finish at 12:30 mor or less, and were at the port at 10:30. In my opinion we should went to another snorkel place. Thanks.
Swam with dolphins and saw whales, what more can you say.

5.00Swam with dolphins and saw whales, what more could you ask? Having been on many disappointing sea fishing trips in the past I went with a healthy dose of cynicism. However the 2 man crew were friendly and well informed from other boats and found both quickly. 2 things ticked off my bucket list. Watch outs, it gets quite cold and expect lots of spray so a change of clothes recommended. Overall had an amazing experience.
Respectful of the animals and still up close

5.00It was a great experience to experience the sperm whales. Our organizer behaved very respectfully towards the animals and still managed to make this experience possible for us.
Awesome!

5.00Picked up at 5:00AM because whale viewing has to be done before midday (Mauritius law), but getting up that early was worth it. There's no guarantee of seeing anything at all, but the company are organised with spotter boats that go out early and then report back so us tourists get the very best chance. They're also flexible - we were meant to see the dolphins first but that changed when a report came over the radio that whales had been spotted, and we ended up seeing 6 or 7 sperm whales which was amazing. Later on we also got to see some dolphins - the method here is to park the boat ahead of their course and then for us to jump in quickly and watch as the dolphins swim under us. Then we got back in the boat which caught them back up and repeated. Obviously we were there for dolphins and whales, but the landscape as we went out to sea with the sun coming up was also spectacular.
