★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 595 reviews · 5 hours · from $129Our pick

Set out from Grande Riviere Noire with two skippers and up to 14 passengers. After a wildlife briefing, swim with spinner and bottlenose dolphins, watch whales from the boat, and snorkel over a coral reef. Guides including Globis, Conrad, Alan, Ronaldo, and Fabio have been praised for calm, careful handling.

“The activity was brilliant. We were unlucky with the weather on the original day that we booked but the lovely representative helped us secure spaces on the following day and woke up at 5am to update us on the weather. The guides on the day were amazing. I am 6 months pregnant and they went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable throughout the trip amd enjoying myself. We saw whales and my husband swam with dolphins. I could not recommend this trip more highly, it is a brilliant day out and a great company.”
