Itinerary

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 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 enjoy 2.5 hours on the open sea viewing and swimming with dolphins. 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, head back to the shore for a short period of time, and then start your 3 hour 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.
