Kizimkazi dolphins tour

Duration: 2 hours
In Kizimkazi

Off to Kizimkazi, a small village at the southern tip of the island. We’ll take you out to sea in a small motorboat to see the wild dolphins that come to disturb the surface of the Kizimkazi channel. With a mask and snorkel, you can swim alongside them if you’re lucky – they’re very curious and attentive to newcomers! Note that the Kizimkazi dolphin is a wild species, but it is fairly easy to find and observe them, as the local fishermen know their habits well. However, we cannot guarantee that they will be there when you go out. We will leave early in the morning to have a better chance of finding them and to make it easier to observe them at dawn.

Additional information

Comments :

  • There are lots of boats around the dolphins, which can be stressful for them.
  • To observe them in a respectful manner, opt for the ‘search option’, which involves looking for a school of dolphins away from other tourists, further out in the ocean.
  • Dolphin sightings are not guaranteed. No refunds will be given if none are seen.
