Dolphins are majestic, kind, and smart creatures that are on most people's bucket lists to see in real life, and now that you're in the Maldives, the time is now.

Observe dolphins living their best life on this tour. Watch them swim and play around with the vastly beautiful Indian Ocean as a backdrop.

Perfect for family, friends, or couples, this activity is not to be missed.

The staff were very courteous and friendly and although it’s not their fault we didn’t see any dolphins due to the weather which I understand is not their fault.

Over crowded, dangerous high tides, numerous people being sick, no bottled water - only from a container that doesn’t look clean, towels that stunk.

Really enjoyed the trip. Helpful and friendly staff with good pre-trip chat about the dolphins. We were lucky enough to see a large pod just as we were about to come back to the hotel. We loved the big boat and being able to sit upstairs and enjoy the sun and views really made the trip.

It was a really fantastic experience, the boat ride itself and the view of the dolphins (not within control of the tour, I realise!) Perhaps it would have been good to have some explanation about the environment or more info about the dolphins

We didn’t see dolphins but understand that there is always this risk. The boat trip was good but not enough seats as the boat is designed for 12 persons max and we were 17

A fabulous experience. We felt safe, relaxed and were lucky enough to see the dolphins in their natural habitat. The crew spent time and the whole experience was not rushed .
