DATES: Programmes run March to November

Please book early particularly on school and public holidays. The best months are between March - November, although the dolphins are resident all year, it is easier to see them and swim with them in the warmer months when the sea is calm. We can accept bookings for groups of 6 or more in Dec - Feb. The winter months can sometimes be windy, but if your boat trip is cancelled we will endeavour to make it up during your stay, though please understand we do not control the weather!
