“The opportunity to join the tour as a watcher provides spectacular viewing of these acrobatic and energised dolphins. Their exhilerating displays of jumps, leaps, tail slapping and somersaults provide the most incredible dolphin show on earth! Watchers and swimmers travel on the same boat, so if some of you want to watch and some of you want to swim this is not a problem as you will still be together. It’s fascinating to witness the interaction between swimmers and wild dolphins from above the water too. Our boats are specifically built with optimum viewing in mind and have upstairs decks as well as walk around bows to enable you to capture perfect images of your experience.”
