Overview

Take in the stunning views of the Alboran Sea and Costa del Sol. Don’t miss the chance to witness dolphins in their natural habitat and immerse yourself in nature! By choosing a catamaran with the Blue Flag, you’re supporting sustainable tourism that helps protect the marine environment. These boats also promote environmental education for our guests and ensure our activities have minimal impact on the ocean.

Our catamaran tour lasts around 2 hours, but the exact time may vary depending on where the dolphins are located. We may return to the port 10-15 minutes earlier or later based on the situation.

While we make every effort to spot dolphins on each trip, sightings cannot be guaranteed, as weather and sea conditions may affect their visibility. If we are unable to locate dolphins during your tour, we will offer you the option to reschedule at a 50% discount.
