Dolphin watching in the Ionian Sea

A slow cruise on the clear waters of the Ionian Sea, away from crowded routes, with local experts on the marine environment. The approach is respectful: sightings are spontaneous, never staged.

Frequently asked questions

Are dolphin sightings guaranteed?

No: the dolphins live free in their natural habitat, and no one can guarantee a sighting.

Which days does it run?

On Sundays; on other days only when booked well in advance.

Where do we set off from?

From Taranto.

What if the sea conditions are not right?

Every outing at sea always depends on the weather and the sea: if we cannot set out, it can be moved to one of the following days.

Better as a full day, best when we arrange your whole stay

Every experience can be booked on its own, but we recommend linking it into a full day with a private driver, or into your whole stay, arranged by us.
