100% recommended - Extraordinary experience. We have not seen the dolphins....BUT WE HAVE SEEN THE WHALES! Very knowledgeable staff, all friendly and super helpful, stra recommended experience (considering that it is as sustainable as possible and supports research). Fun snorkeling and performed with professionalism, prudence and attention. We saw a very large moray eel and it was really nice.

Great experience with Progeto Natura! - Super sea excursion made by real enthusiasts in the respect of dolphins. The team gave us a great briefing during the excursion. A big thank you to Angelique (who speaks French more) Karen and Fabio for this great time, we were amazed to see the dolphins especially my little girl of 5 years! I recommend 100%!

Best 60€ to spent in Alghero - The dolphin excursion was incredible. The snorkeling also. While traveling Fabio and the interns are giving a lot of useful information about the area, dolphins and marine life. The whole team was super nice and friendly. The best 60€ i've spent in a long long time. If I come back here i would rebook this trip instantly.

THE BEST EXPERIENCE - I am a student studying abroad in Europe, and over the course of two years I have attended many whale and dolphin watching events in Europe, and this event was definitely the best event I have ever attended, with the best science explanation and frontline research staff!

Nice excursion but a bit pricy - Everyone was polite and the trip was well organised. Unfortunately, we did not see any dolphins. I have rated this excursion with 3 stars, as in my opinion, it's a bit pricy.
