One of the best places in Mallorca where you can be almost 100% certain of seeing dolphins in the sea is in the bay of Alcudia. For this reason, we have created this unique boat tour to take you to see dolphins on the high seas in their natural habitat, led by an expert skipper who knows the island's waters and will lead you to prime hotspots, ensuring up-close encounters with these playful creatures.
After about 45 minutes of crossing, we will find dolphins. Then we will practically stop engines, so you can observe them swim, jump and even some may approach the boat. You will be able to take photos and videos, all in complete harmony with the dolphins, and with hardly any boats in the surroundings.
You will experience the thrill of witnessing the dolphins' graceful leaps and twists amidst the waves. But it's not just about dolphins – our boat tour offers onboard amenities, including a bar service for refreshing drinks and restroom facilities for your convenience. Plus, our multilingual crew provide fascinating insights into marine life and ecosystems. With small group sizes of up to 36 passengers, expect an intimate and personalized adventure. Remember, while the excitement may bring you close to these majestic creatures, respecting their natural habitat is essential, with strictly no interaction permitted.
Afterwards, we will start the journey back to Puerto Alcudia enjoying the views of the bay, beaches such as Coll Baix or the mountains of the Sierra de Tramuntana and Formentor.
For this dolphin watching activity in Mallorca, we have different departures throughout the day: see the schedules below. And remember: advanced booking is essential, due to the popularity of this boat tour and the limited capacity onboard. On our first departure in the morning, you will also be able to see the sunrise. Seeing how the sun appears on the horizon and its different shades of colors are reflected in the sea is something that will leave you speechless.
Why choose THIS dolphin-watching acitivity?
There are different boat activities now in Mallorca to go to see dolphins in the wild. So why choose this one? What makes it special?
- Free transport will pick you up and take you DIRECTLY to the boat without having to wait while the boat makes complicated maneouvres at different piers before the trip actually begins. We take you by coach, we board... and we're off in search of dolphins!
- Boat built for speed, security and comfort: This is not a flimsy 12-seater speedboat that will get tossed around in the waves, and nor is it a slow ferry-type boat that navegates laboriously through the water. This is a kundala, which is small enough to be an intimate group and large enough to be perfectly safe. The boat has a fast engine, meaning that you reach the high seas sooner and get to spend more time observing the dolphins.
- Maximum dolphin-sighting time: The boat trip is shorter than others in total, but it is the one that gives you more time in the dolphin observation area, as it moves much faster than other boats.
- 36 passengers maximum: This is a much smaller boat than those used on other dolphin-watching boat trips, giving you a more exclusive and intimate experience.
- Responsible sighting: dolphin-friendly tour with licenses and permissions from local Mallorca government.
