No dolphin sightings, but we knew that could happen... what we did not like is that besides searching for dolphins, nothing else was planned. No words were spent to explain the landscape or anything else. Served poor quality wine and two slices of simple cakes that can also be made at home. The tour was supposed to last 2 hours and 50 minutes and lasted just over 2 hours with more than 30 minutes spent in front of the port....
I enjoyed this although it was a choppy day and we must have been out on the water for 50 minutes before stopping - having more or less gone full circle back to the harbour we departed from. The 'snorkelling' part is a bit misleading - I expected them to supply snorkelling equipment but this is not the case, so take your own. A few of us went in for a swim and then dolphins were sighted (I think they may have been porpoise as they were small). I had swum away from the boat a bit and it was a mad rush to get back on board as they were keen to move closer. It was exciting to see the dolphins/porpoise in the water, there must have been around 10 of them. Then in a few short minutes we were back at the harbour, so no time to get changed. Decent enough value for money but the swim was too quick and the sighting brief.
Good trip but didn’t get to see dolphins. They tried their best in looking for dolphins whilst out in the sea. We stopped off near the coast for people to swim and snorkel.
Saw loads of dolphins, friendly staff
The boat moves a little but and suitable for people prone to seasickness
Thanks to the crew and especially to TEDDY great a lot of humor. Tuesday, December 30. Fluent in French. We saw the dolphins very close.I recommend.
Very pleasant cruise, with an extraordinary team, with little care for its guests. Even if the dolphins were not there since nature decides, we had a great time with the family.
Visited here today for a trip. We arrived thirty minutes before leaving as requested so were at the front of the queue. That didn't stop other rude people from trying to push in after arriving 3 minutes before. The trip was lovely. No dolphins but that didn't bother us. Remember to bring a towel as there's an opportunity to swim. Nice trip for the whole family.
Mini cruise to discover dolphins on October 3, 2025. Supported by Carlos lanzarote Sea tours. Many thanks for the organization. Fabulous! No dolphins, but observation of a group of sperm whales! We recommend!
