The main objective of cetacean sighting is the observation and monitoring of the species living in their natural habitat. During the 2-hour sighting, you will enjoy the numerous species that congregate along with explanations by our expert guides in the sector. Our staff will record the encounters throughout the trip, and then include them in our sighting database, which we update weekly.
As part of our commitment to nature, also during all our trips, we will collect as much garbage as we can find.
During the trip, drinks will be offered on board (soft drinks, beer and water).
Due to the current situation, a minimum of 2 persons are required for each reservation, and a maximum of 10 persons. No more than 2 groups, reservations and/or families will be mixed on board.
