Dolphin Watching by Catamaran Along Mallorca's Southwest Coast
About this experience
Dolphin Watch is a dolphin-watching excursion in Mallorca that offers an authentic, safe, and respectful experience with marine wildlife. We sail in open, natural waters in one of the most favorable areas of southwest Mallorca for observing cetaceans in their natural habitat.
Excursions run at various times and durations throughout the day (ranging from 1 hour 15 minutes to 2.5 hours). Depending on your chosen departure, the experience can focus exclusively on dolphin watching or include a post-sighting swimming stop in crystal-clear waters. All options are ideal for families, couples, and nature lovers alike.
Accompanied by a crew with extensive local expertise, you will enjoy a trip designed to connect with the sea and discover the Mediterranean from a unique perspective, with multi-language audio guides available during the cruise. Thanks to our years of experience, we can predict where dolphins are most likely to be found. Watching them swim in the wild is a breathtaking experience; however, as they are wild animals, sightings cannot be 100% guaranteed.
Departures from Camp de Mar and Paguera take place on our modern catamaran, Don Jaume. It features underwater viewing windows, a spacious upper sun deck perfect for panoramic views, and covered areas providing shade and maximum comfort during the trip.
Departures from Santa Ponsa are operated on our modern and comfortable fast cruiser. This vessel features spacious seating, open sunbathing areas, and shaded sections. Our boat, Carpe Diem, offers a dynamic "close-to-the-water" experience, ideal for those seeking a more intimate and active excursion.
