“Amazing trip for my family we all loved every minute.. saw lots of dolphins and was great :)”
Review of Mallorca’s 3-hour dolphin boat tour from Santa Ponsa or Paguera, with glass-bottom views, a swim stop, onboard bars, and practical tips.
“Queue looked overcrowded but on board we went outside on deck so fine. As we boarded staff took a photo of us. The whole experience was glorious. Though we couldn't hear everything the captain said we loved every moment. The sea was a navy colour I've never seen before. We did get some glimpses of dolphins so that was delightful. My son felt a bit sea wobbly for a while but nothing was stopping him from joining in the swim stop! The swim stop was tricky treading water in deep sea. I kept holding on to the rope hanging from the boat. So glad I joined in. I went down…”
Review of Mallorca’s 3-hour dolphin cruise from Paguera or Santa Ponsa, with glass-bottom views, a swim stop, onboard bars, and practical tips.
“The trip was excellent and the staff were amazing. The only negative was the inconsideration of other guests on the boat. People were sprawled out along benches (laid down) whilst we had to stand for the duration of the trip. We stood at the back of the boat and this was fine until people were getting off to swim and then we literally had nowhere to stand without people pushing! On a more positive note, the tour was amazing and we saw sooo many dolphins! Would definitely book again!”
Review of Mallorca’s Can Picafort dolphin boat trip, with sea caves, sunrise views, Coll Baix swimming, practical tips, and honest value advice.
“Possibly drinks on board ? If it is just a bottle of water each ….”
Watch dolphins from a small boat, explore a cave, and swim in Mallorca’s northern waters on this three-hour Can Picafort tour.
“It was a lovely experience, only 12 people on board, nice and efficient captain, we have seen lots of dolphins and some interesting rock formations. We have stopped for a short swim at a beautiful bay, perhaps this stop could have lasted a bit longer as we have had enough time to get back to the marina but overall it was a fabulous experience.”
Review the Palma dolphin boat tour, including dolphin sightings, swim stop, transfers, price, timing, snorkeling, and practical booking tips.
“Very nice boat tour, we stopped in a beautiful bay to swim and snorkel for about 15 min, then we moved to catch the dolphins (we saw a bunch of them for about 20 min). On the boat are sold cold drinks and there’s a little toilet. A very good activity overall, the only thing to say is there was no guide at all (but not strictly necessary for the activity in my opinion)”
Watch wild dolphins, swim in a secluded cove, and cruise Palma Bay on this relaxed three-hour speedboat tour.
“little bit overpriced and what we didn't like it that we didn't got dropped in the boat to the original place where we get in, we had to get off the boat and move to the bus which was not mentioned at all in the description, we actually found out when we docked and they told us to leave and go to the bus but in total was fun experience, the stuff could be more chatty, we did see 3 delfins”
Pick a door, a deck or a table.
