While we didn’t see dolphins, we had a fantastic time. Emmanuel and Marco were wonderful and informative guides who left a lasting impression on us, creating memories our family will never forget. They were great with our kids, helping them feel both comfortable and intrigued with sea life. We wish them both all the best in their studies and their futures in marine biology.

We went on an afternoon trip as a group of 9, and had an excellent experience. Emmanuel, Jose, and Rosa were our guides, speaking English to us and Spanish and French to other people in the tour. The guides were knowledgeable about the marine life in the area which made snorkeling extra interesting! The communication, directions, and preparation beforehand were very well organized, which is very helpful when visiting for the first time. The guides were very friendly, and accommodating when possible. Our whole group had a wonderful experience!

Not for beginners?

Jillian_A, Oct 2025
This was a great experience but ensure that you tell the guides the level of experience you have in kayaking and snorkelling before you start. You must take shoes for in the water as walking on the beach on Figarolo is very sore!

Very touristic but nice

Kristyna_D, Sep 2025
Nice kayak tour, unfortunately not in small group of 8 people as promised. Our group was more than 12 double kayaks. At the same time was another group with around 6 double kayaks on the same way, so it was unfortunately not as private as expected. Otherwise very cool spot for snorkling with the cool facts given by the marine biologists. We saw delphins feeding in the cage area, magical experience. Since the sunset is earlier in September, we were back half an hour earlier. The actual distance for kayaking was too short for our taste. Very tasty local apero with beer.

Great kayaking tour! My favorite part was seeing the dolphins and exploring the beaches! Recommend if you are in the area.

Brilliant trip with dolphin watching.

Paul_M, Sep 2025
Our guide Maria was excellent. Very knowledgeable and made the whole trip very enjoyable. And yes, we did see dolphins.

Great trip to see scenery and wildlife

HsiaoTieh_H, Aug 2025
We had a great time on our kayaking trip. We had a chance to see the bottlenose dolphins, many varieties of fish while snorkeling, and see the beautiful sea and landscape of Sardinia. Our guides Maria and Emmanuel’s did a great job of getting us set up with the equipment, explaining the wildlife we were seeing, and setting up refreshments towards the end of the trip. In addition to the dolphins, we learned about cormorants, sea urchins, and more!

Dolphins, kayak and swim...

Mitchell_C, Jul 2025
Gajia and Manu were great guides for our excursion, which was an afternoon Kayak tour. We were late/on time for the session and we would advise arriving at least 30 minutes early as we were cutting it fine and didn't plan for wasting 15 minutes at the car park vending machine. Aside from the car park issue, the your was excellent. The guides were patient with the mixed skill levels of our family. Manu introduced the group to sea urchins. We than had snack and headed on to see could we spot dolphins. In the end we saw several dolphins all quite up close and the guides were patient with their time, to ensure we got ample time to experience the dolphins... Even though they have that experience 4 times daily, every day. Well worth the money and an excellent way to end our family holiday to Sardinia.

This was so beautiful and really well organized! Our guide was super knowledgeable and helpful! We saw lots of fish, dolphins, and sea urchins. The charcuterie and drinks included was also top notch, highly recommended!

Very good local guides who knew a lot about the Ocean and the surroundings. We saw dolphins at Open sea!

Nice little adventure

Leone_C, Sep 2024
The kayaking and snorkelling was great and nice to have the Sardinian food and local drinks on one of the little islands. Our guides were great and very disappointed that we didn't see dolphins. It was ok as it was a nice morning.

We booked the sunrise...

Severina_G, Sep 2024
We booked the sunrise tour, highly recommend it as the sea and wind are calmer and it's more likely that the dolphins are out! It was a beautiful experience, the canoe are well equipped and the tour is magical. My son had a little accident on the rocky beach (make sure you bring appropriate footwear - very helpfully you can buy it from them for only 12 euros), and the staff was very helpful and attentive. Will definitely come back next year.

Wonderful kayaking experience

Veena_M, Aug 2024
Amazing kayaking experience. We were beginners and with children. The guys made sure we are comfortable and got looked after very well. Would highly recommend

Highlight of my trip!

Lari, Aug 2024
This was one of the highlights of our trip! We saw dolphins up close and saw the most beautiful sunrise. Definitely a recommendation to do while you’re in Sardinia!

Amazing 🤩

Anne_K, Jul 2024
Great expierience and the guides were so sweet and knowledgeable about the habitat🤗🙏🏻 and we saw dolphins close up 🥰

Unforgettable experience

Manon_T, Jul 2024
I had an unforgettable experience. The landscape was beautiful, I saw sea urchins, dolphins, hermit crab... Marco and Eduardo were both awesome. I highly recommend this activity with closed eyes 😉 If I come back to Olbia, I'll come back here too. Thank you again for this experience!

The best way to watch the sunset!

kirsty_w, Jul 2024
What a fantastic trip, 100% recommend this tour. The sunset was perfectly beautiful and the dolphins were only 3 meters away from us at some points. An amazing tour that must be experienced by all visiting the area.

Fab day kayaking!

Julie_N, Jul 2024
We had such an amazing day 🩷 we started off racing to see the dolphins as they were already in the bay . That actually wasn’t the highlight! We then went to an island where we did some snorkeling and went on to the most beautiful beach where we had beer and snacks , did some swimming and took photos. The staff were friendly and helpful . We split into English and Italian speaking within the group but had a wonderful 3 hours ! Would definitely recommend 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️🇮🇹🇮🇹

Beautiful morning on the water

Tricia_M, Jun 2024
Our guides were safe, informative, and enjoyable to work with. It's a great way to see Sardinia from a different perspective. We had a great day out on the water!

Fun experience seriously worth doing

Alex_D, Jun 2024
The Kayak tour was so much fun with friendly guides helping out at any instance you need assistance. The dolphins were amazing to see and it was a very enjoyable trip to do. I would recommend some sort of swimming shoes as some of the beaches has many rocks which can be painful.

Magic!

Georgina_P, May 2024
Such a lovely few hours kayaking in the beautiful sea. We were a family of 5 split over 2 boats - one of which was an 8 year old child who sat in the middle of the kayak between his mum and dad. We saw dolphins within the first 10 mins - wonderful! The views from the two stop off points were stunning. The tour guides were all fantastic. Well worth the reasonable price point. Would do it again in a heart beat!

Great experience

The guide, the water, the dolphins, the snorkeling, the kayaking... 10s across the board! Highly recommended!

Perfect tour with a nice team!

Oliver_S, Sep 2021
It was a perfect tour and we can totally recommend the trip. We even had luck and spotted dolphins after we had some aperitif. We booked the afternoon tour, which was a great choice as seeing the sun go down while we're in the Kayak :) The guides were really helpful, nice and funny. So all in all a wonderful experience!

Cool!

Antonio_C, Aug 2021
It was a great excursion in a wonderful sea water and an amazing place. We had fun with the aperitif and got to see some dolphins during the tour :)
