I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. The sunrise was fabulous, glad I picked early morning. Dolphins a plenty and seeing them in their natural habitat was fantastic. Crew were very accommodating, breakfast was sufficient. Would recommend.

An early start that took us to see dolphins swimming in their natural environment. About 45 minutes travelling and the same watching dolphins swim and play close by. On the trip back we had breakfast which included Breadrolls with cheese and ham plus a croissant with coffee or hot chocolate and orange juice. A great trip out hosted by pleasant and helpful crew. Thanks !

Too many people sick it’s disgusting
We saw lots of dolphins
The sunrise was beautiful and there’s nice music on board
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you for your feedback, Latif.
We're really happy you enjoyed the beautiful sunrise, the dolphin sightings, and the atmosphere on board. 🐬🌅🎶
Regarding seasickness — unfortunately, it's something that can happen depending on sea conditions and individual sensitivity. We always recommend guests who are prone to motion sickness to take preventive measures before boarding. We’ll also pass your comment on to the crew to help us improve comfort even further on days when the sea is a bit rougher.
Thanks again for joining us!

It might seem like a trouble waking up early for it but honestly it is so worth it, can't fault at all, it was amazing.
The staff are lovely and polite, the boat was clean and the whole experience was truly amazing, i would definatly do it again.
The sunset was absolutely beautiful, the only thing id recommend is a jacket just for the early start of it but once it warms up you're fine, the food and drinks they provided was lovely

So many dolphins! And what a beautiful sunset.
Not only the kids but also we adults had a lovely morning
Will do this again
Mustafa_S, Oct 2022
It was nice to see a few Dolphins pop out, however gutted we could only spend 20-30 minutes with them. Majority of the trip was taken up by travelling towards to Dolphin area - an hour in then back.
Definitely advise doing this during the summer months of you are fascinated by Dolphins, however personally not worth the cost.
Kate_T, Jul 2022
If you can brave the 5.30 start this Lovely trip and plenty of dolphins to see, the crew are very knowledgeable about where to view them and we saw about 15-20 over the 30 minutes we stopped. Busy but enjoyable trip
Guillaume_L, Aug 2021
An incredible experience - specially with the sunrise and… the dolphins !!
Nice breakfast too. We recommend it.
Jacqueline_P, Jun 2021
We did have a beautiful morning for the sunrise tour! The boat was well maintained and comfortable. Bringing a blanket or towel to dry outside seating would be a plus as they were damp from over night rain. The ride was very smooth! We were blessed to watch a pod of dolphins for 30-45 minutes. Breakfast was fine- a slice of meat and cheese, a piece of bread, a pan au chocolat, and juice. Nothing fancy but it was fine. I really wish the crew would have been more engaging. There was no interaction with guests that I saw other than giving a seasick passenger a bag and wet paper towel. Explanation of how the tour was to be run and safety was minimal. It would have been nice to have some education of the Mediterranean and the sea life in it. Sharing knowledge of dolphins would have been educational. So in all this was a boat ride out to see dolphins, an fair breakfast, and boat ride back. With this said, the tip bucket was out, but I did not contribute. I felt the €60+ cost for my ticket covered what I received. Tips, in my opinion, are for those who go above what the ticket cost is. There is so much potential for this company. I hope to see them grow.

Well worth the early start! We were picked up from our hotel in Can Picafort at 6am.
Seeing the dolphins as the sun was rising was incredible. A handful of boats were there, although ours was about 4 times as big as the others I felt sorry for the other boats, knowing we were probably in the background of all their photos.
Breakfast was basic - a tiny, cheap croissant with some cheese and ham, and a cup of orange juice. Not very filling at all.
We had to sit on the boat as it dropped everyone off and picked up new passengers before taking us all the way to Port Alcudia where the coach was waiting which meant we didn't get back to our hotel until after 11am.
Pascale_M, Jul 2025
The crew is very caring by serving us breakfast included in the price. Dolphin watching will remain unforgettable because its duration was really important and we were able to make the most of the ballet they offered us.

Le lever de soleil était juste magnifique et voir les dauphin c'était incroyable. A des moments les dauphins était devant le lever de soleil c'était magique. J'ai adorer.
Marcel_K, Jul 2024
Der Ausflug mit dem Katamaran zu den Delphinen mit Sonnenaufgang war schon beeindruckend. Wir konnten tolle Fotos machen.
Die Anzahl der Personen auf dem Boot war jedoch grenzwertig, aber wir hatten einen Sitzplatz und konnten uns frei bewegen. Somit volle Punktzahl.
ADELE_V, Jul 2024
La gita in barca è stata stupenda con l'alba sul mare e l'avvicinamento dei delfini. L'organizzazione ottima e curata nei dettagli.
Alexia_L, Apr 2023
Dommage d’être sur un gros catamaran quand on voyait les speedboats être proches des dauphins. Nous fait venir à 5h30 pour seulement débuter l’embarquement à 6h et s’arrêter à 3/4 ports avant de partir en mer… à cause de ça nous avons raté les belles couleurs avant le lever du soleil.
Michael_H, Sep 2022
Treffpunkt 5:40 am Hafen,dann fast 55min gewartet bis die letzten Passagiere gebracht wurden. :( Stimmung unter den wartenden Passagieren denkbar schlecht!)
Dann ca 1h Fahrzeit.
Viele Boote gleichzeitig Vorort(5STK)
Es gleicht eher einer Treibjagd als einer Beobachtung!
Zum Frühstück gab es unter anderem Croissants die einzeln in Plastik verpackt ausgegeben wurden.
Unzählige Folien wurden ins Meer geweht ( MUSS DAS IM JAHR 2022 NOCH SEIN ?)
FAZIT: Tierquälerei mit Umweltverschmutzung!!!!
Frdric_V, Aug 2022
Très belle sortie en famille. Même si il faut être matinal, ça en vaut vraiment la peine. Pour le lever du soleil et pour voir évoluer les dauphins dans la mer. Ces moments magiques resteront inoubliables. Nous sommes très nombreux à bord, mais ça se passe bien. On peut regretter un manque de communication avant la montée à bord. Allez-y pour le spectacle !
Marjorie_P, Jul 2022
Magnifique excursion ! Nous avons vu les dauphins de près et de loin. Le lever du soleil était superbe.. Équipage au top, seul bémol l excursion était annoncée comme étant en français mais elle a été donnée en anglais et en espagnol... Nous avions des connaissances en anglais ce qui n a rien gâché!
Philipp_M, Jul 2022
Alles Bestens, schöner Sonnenaufgang, viele Delfine....aber sehr viele Menschen am Katamara, schätze 50-60. Ist sich aber trotzdem alles vom Platz her ausgegangen. Frühstück mit Kaffe und Orangensaft gab's auch. Gibt nichts zu meckern. Sind um 5h40 losgefahren und um 9h waren wir wieder im Hafen.
Susana_M, Jul 2022
Contraté excursión de vela y el barco no se ajustó a la descripción de mi reserva. Por este motivo no aconsejaría reservar con su compañía
Anas_M, Jun 2022
Magnifique levé de soleil. Le bateau a pris le temps de s'arrêter pour l'admirer. La musique d'ambiance était un vrai plus pour le romantisme du moment. Le bateau a vraiment pris le temps d'admirer les dauphins
JENNIFER_R, May 2022
Voir le soleil se lever depuis la mer est magique et avec les dauphins qui nagent à côté du bateau c'est magnifique.
Sarah_B, Oct 2021
Magnifique moment passé et une expérience mémorable. Rencontre avec les dauphins qui s'amusaient dans les vagues autour des bateaux pendant près de 15 minutes, observation de très près. Équipage très sympathique, je recommande cette expérience !
Olivier_L, Jul 2021
Expérience intéressante sur un grand catamaran. Laller et retour est agréable et la découverte et le spectacle des dauphins magnifique. Cependant, pas de traduction en français contrairement à la description, point négatif.
Marlne_G, Jul 2021
catamaran plutôt gros mais cela ne nous a pas empêché de voir beaucoup de dauphins et un magnifique levé de soleil !
Petit déjeuné conséquent.
Natalie_G, Jun 2021
Ein mega Tag und Erlebnis! Wir waren mega zufrieden .
Allerdings kostet es 3€ mehr als vor Ort - muss man erwähnen .
Ich würde es jederzeit wieder machen
Laura_S, May 2021
Es war kalt aber wunderschön das Frühstück wurde erst auf dem Rückweg gegeben davor konnte man nur Sachen kaufen. Aber ansonsten alles wunderbar
izoi59, Aug 2019
Très bien.
Dommage que certaines personnes sur le bateau soient très mal élevées et ne tiennent pas compte des autres. Je parle des touristes, pas du personnel.
Dommage aussi de n'avoir personne qui parle français pour les explications

Wenn ich Segeltörn lese, erwarte ich einen Segeltörn. Aufgrund eines simplen Übersetzungsfehlers wurden wir hier jedoch Teilnehmer einer Bootstour Sailing Trip - das Englische macht keinen Unterschied zwischen Segeltörn und Bootstour auf einem Glasbodenkatamaran der sicherlich rund 200 oder mehr Personen hätte fassen können und der auf dem Heimweg noch als Wassertaxi diente. Spricht natürlich nichts dagegen, wenn man sich nicht eigentlich auf einen Segeltörn gefreut hätte. Anschleichen und leise die Natur genießen war demnach nicht, war aber auch nicht nötig, weil rein zufällig ein Fischerboot verfolgt werden konnte, hinter dem die Delfine fischten. Fazit: tolle Morgenstimmung, schöne Tiere, leider nicht so exklusiv wie man es aufgrund der Überschrift vermutet hatte.
