A private boat excursion into a protected marine reserve to observe dolphins and seabird colonies with a resident marine biologist.
What to expect
You depart from a quiet inlet aboard a low-wake research vessel designed not to disturb marine life. The biologist narrates behavior patterns as dolphin pods approach, and points out nesting seabird cliffs along the reserve's edge. Hydrophones are lowered to let you listen to dolphin calls in real time. The pace is unhurried, prioritizing genuine sightings over a fixed schedule.
Good to know
Weather-dependent with flexible rebooking; meet at the research foundation dock, a 15-minute transfer from the cruise terminal, arranged by the operator.
