Set off from Le Morne on a private trip to look for spinner and bottlenose dolphins, with a snorkeling stop. Add extra time for lagoon discovery, a visit to Crystal Rock and further to Île aux Bénitiers.
Head out from Le Morne to look for spinner and bottlenose dolphins along the coast. Our skippers grew up along the West Coast and have spent years navigating these waters.
We value responsible dolphin watching that gives dolphins space and avoids disturbing their natural behaviour. Sightings always depend on the dolphins and sea conditions.
Your 2-hour trip focuses on dolphin watching, with the option of a lagoon snorkelling stop if time allows and you wish to include it.

Speedboats are ideal for dolphin watching. Most times they are in the South West and West regions, but sometimes they can be further and it is quicker to reach them on time via Speedboat. The boat capacity varies from 6 to 10 people, including children of all ages. The available capacity will be confirmed upon enquiry. If you are more, we can hire more boats or arrange for other boat types.
Le Morne is ideally positioned between the West and South coasts, giving our skippers the flexibility to look for dolphins in different areas depending on their location and sea conditions on the day. We generally favour the southern area when conditions allow, as it can be quieter and may have less boats around the dolphins. When conditions are unsuitable or the dolphins are more likely to be found in the West only, we may head towards Tamarin Bay instead. Departing from Le Morne also means starting your trip with picturesque views of the iconic Le Morne Brabant mountain and its beautiful lagoon. Dolphin locations and number of boats vary from day to day, so the route is adapted to the conditions.
Dolphins are spotted on most mornings, but they are wild animals, so sightings can never be guaranteed. Our skippers use their local knowledge to look for them along the South West and West Coast while respecting their natural behaviour and knowing when to give a pod space.
Dolphins are generally around during the morning. There is no longer a specific "ideal" or quiet time that can guarantee fewer boats, as operators may be booked for different time slots and we cannot know how many boats will be in the area before reaching the dolphins. It also depends on the number of dolphin pods in the region. Earlier is no longer guaranteed to be quieter as more and more people have seen this and this may sometimes create the opposite effect. We suggest a time-slot - depending on availability and conditions on the day, and hope for the best conditions on site.
Snorkeling equipment is available to borrow, and we clean it after use. However, for the best fit, comfort and personal hygiene, we recommend bringing your own mask and snorkel if you have them.
