What should we bring?

Clothing that you don’t mind getting wet, sunglasses and sunscreen, food and drink (we sell drinks and snacks at our location if you forget yours), and of course, a camera to keep those memories.

We have more than 6 people; can we go?

Our “Private Dolphin Tours” can take a maximum of 6 people. If you have more than six people, you can join a combined group trip by booking here!
