It was a fantastic...

Published on Jan, 2025

It was a fantastic experience, everyone should try this! Was so happy to see and swim with dolphins and tortoise! Obviously, it’s nature so it’s not like you gonna see it always, but even if that would fail for some reason the food that was served was extraordinary. So grateful for the opportunity to experience this!

Dolphin swim and bbq lobster on the beach :)

Published on Jan, 2025

Wonderful day trip with capitan miguel and first officer Tyler! Awesome experience swimming close up with dolphins. Miguel was very knowledgeable in locating them and Tyler can swim like one :)) . Followed this up with some great snorkeling at crystal lagoon and then an amazing bbq on the beach with fresh sea urchins, oysters and lobster on the bbq. Rounded off an amazing day with some turtle watching. Thanks again mig and ty!

An unforgettable day in Mauritius

Thanks Miguel and his young colleague sorry could not get name as well as their other colleague on another boat for an amazing day. Your hospitality was great. Be prepared to start early especially if you are staying on the East coast. Left hotel and drove for almost 2 hours before we got to meeting point but fully worth it. We met the guys on the beach and got on the speedboat and headed directly to find some dolphins. It was early and the best time to find them. Had a great swim with them in open sea truly an unforgettable experience. Miguel was very considerate about timing and also about the dolphins and kept some distance and let us enjoy. Then we headed in the lagoon for some snorkelling. Enjoyed seeing coral and lots of different fish swimming close by. We caught some sea urchins and Miguel dived to get some oysters. Well we enjoyed these once we were on the island. Past Crystal rock and onto the island where we had the opportunity to swim, take a walk while our seafood bbq food was being prepared. Delicious is an understatement. Prawn and vegetable skewers to start with after we enjoyed the fresh sea urchins and oysters....cannot get fresher than these. Next we had grilled fresh lobster followed by grilled fish all served with garlic bread. Time to unwind and relax. The trilastedst around 7 hours and on the way back around 12.30 we stopped to swim with turtles A day we will definitely remember on our trip to Mauritius. We were sceptical to book at first as we saw some negative reviews for other boats but we are glad we picked Lydia boats. Cannot recommend enough. Thank you

Great Experience

Published on Jan, 2025

This was a fantastic, well organised experience that was one of the most enjoyable things we did on the island! Definitely would recommend.

An unforgettable day with dolphins and turtles!

Published on Jan, 2025

An unforgettable experience made even better with such knowledgeable and kind guides! The day started with us encountering wild dolphins and swimming with them as long as we wanted to. Then we were able to go snorkelling at crystal rock and again, for as long as we wanted to. The best part was that everything proceeded on our own desired pace. After snorkelling we were able to have an amazing bbq prepared to us! This is a must, if visiting mauritius! On the way back we saw sea turtles as well!!
