Alcudia: Dolphin Watching Trip at Sea

Alcudia Dolphin Trip Reviews:

  Very well organised trip. Good information for where to meet and easy to find with the Google map pin. We went mid October and it was still quite warm - so I overdressed a bit. A light jacket was probably enough. Lots of people were sea sick so consider that if you’re not good on the open seas. Saw dolphins for about 15-30 minutes and quite nice to sail in the dark and sea the stars and the sunrise. Big boat with toilets on board. Good tour but not sure I’d do it again.

  Absolutely amazing! Watching the sunrise was absolutely beautiful, and to see so many dolphins was just brilliant. The only thing I would suggest for the boat would be to have blankets available to use when it got a bit chilly.

  Loved it! One of the best things we did in Mallorca! Waking up so early was rough, but definitely worth it. The trip started early in the morning with nice calm music and after we had left the harbour, the sun started to rise. So beautiful and romantic! This was our honeymoon trip, so it was perfect! We saw plenty of dolphins and took some nice videos to look back to. Capturing them to photos was way too hard, you should have a proper camera to do that . Usually they were swimming and jumping in pairs. After the dolphins, we started to head back and had a nice small breakfast on the boat. Remember to bring your own towel, the seats were a bit wet!

  It was an amazing experience getting to witness a spectacular sunrise and many dolphins swimming alongside the boat. The Staff were amazing, knowing where to take us and getting up close with the dolphins without disturbing them. Very calming and surreal experience:)

  We had a great morning! Started early and in darkness on the boat and went for about an hour to the perfect dolphin spotting place while the sun was coming up. Once there the crew kept us perfectly positioned to watch the dolphins and the sunrise. A small breakfast was given to those who wanted it while they headed back to the port. The only thing I would advise is to take a small towel to sit on as the seats are damp from the early morning condensation/ cleaning. There is plenty of places to watch from around the boat and to get photos!

  Waking up early was tough, but it was definitely worth it. Whole trip was well organised, the bus transport came in time (to Can Picafort) and brought us directly to the beach where the ship was waiting. The ship departed while the sky was properly dark - we saw stars very well. During the sail we seen whole spectacle of sunrise and then dolphins! :) Beautiful, we made lot of photos.We stay near dolphins around 30 minutes. They have been jumping slightly out of water during and right after sunrise. There has been 3 other ships near us as well. Our trip was on October 9. Weather has been great, clean sky and bit chilli - just for thin jacket before sunrise. And we had nice simple breakfast - brotchen with ham and cheese, plus orange juice or water, tea, coffee. Staff at ship were nice and polite. But don't expect big welcomes or any long talks about dolphins and their life. Staff is there mainly for ship driving and breakfast preparation.

  The company were very good at providing a good amount of information so you knew what to expect. Where to be collected and at what time. They were prompt and friendly. It was a bit surreal getting up so early and meeting at the beach in the dark. It was a big boat and you could sit upstairs with no roof or downstairs covered over. The sea can be a bit choppy. Definitely take a towel for wet seats and a jacket to keep warm. We did see dolphins which was fab but I don't think we got the best of it because of the weather which can't be helped. There were other boats around the area and although our boat kept a safe distance, others seemed to be chasing them which was quite sad. Although the trip included breakfast, this was offered on the way back. You could purchase drinks beforehand. The breakfast was a choice of tea/coffee/hot chocolate. Rolls, ham, cheese, croissants & jam. If you were a bit queasy, staff had bags available and the boat had clean toilets. Would definitely recommend this trip. It was an experience! And you can be dropped to Alcudia Port afterwards if you want to :)

  10/10 superb experience. Staff fantastic-helpful, friendly and informative (and good fun too!). Lovely, exciting trip, beautiful to witness the rising Sun over a clear horizon and felt as if we were watching the dolphins at play without intruding. Highly recommended!
