Activity description

Live a unique experience near Flic en Flac in Mauritius by swimming with dolphins in their natural environment!

Snorkeling with dolphins is a must on the west coast of Mauritius, near Flic en Flac. It is indeed on this side of the island that you will have the best chance to meet these curious and playful marine animals! With experienced skippers who know dolphins well, you will surely be able to see them quickly, but also to swim with them!

The Dolswim team is waiting for you at Grande Rivière Noire, south of Flic en Flac, to take you off the coast of Mauritius and allow you to meet the dolphins in small groups. On board their boat and during the search phase which can take some time, as dolphins remain wild and unpredictable animals, the crew will give you a briefing on the activity: the species of dolphin that you will be able to see, their habits, the rules to respect for their well-being, the safety measures on the boat, as well as the procedures for the launching.

Whether you find bottlenose dolphins or blowfish, the pleasure of swimming with them will remain the same! Once the animals are in sight, the crew will check if they are playing or resting. She will then determine when it will be possible for you to enter the water with your fins, mask and snorkel, accompanied by an instructor to supervise this snorkeling session with the dolphins.

You will live an exceptional moment in contact with extraordinary animals in Mauritius!

We loved our swimming with dolphins experience as our guides were conscious not to just chase the dolphins like other boats did. We got super close to them and the guides were mindful to all swimming abilities.
