Dolphins & Whale Watching

Photos from this trip

Whale-watching trips are offered only during the season and when humpback whales have been confirmed in the area. Humpback whales usually migrate along the west coast of Mauritius between July and October, although their arrival and presence can vary from year to year.

Availability therefore depends on natural conditions and may vary throughout the season and from one year to the next.

We do not offer trips specifically targeting sperm whales, which are found around Mauritius year-round. Their slow reproductive rate makes them particularly vulnerable to additional pressures, and their long dives can encourage attempts to enter the water with them, even though swimming with sperm whales is prohibited in Mauritius.

We have chosen to focus on marine wildlife experiences that reflect our commitment to responsible and sustainable tourism. While no wildlife encounter is entirely without impact, we strive to minimise disturbance and respect the animals in their natural environment.

Contact us for the latest updates on humpback whale presence and seasonal trip availability between July & October.
