Highlights

  • An early departure, before the other boats arrive
  • Open-ended time in the pod's area, no fixed schedule
  • The boat for your group alone
  • Respectful approach, no chasing — we respect nature and animals
  • Extra snorkelling stops if you want them
  • Lunch on board whenever you prefer

Overview

The best time to see dolphins is early in the morning, before dozens of boats arrive in the area. A group trip cannot do that because its schedule is fixed; a private one can. We leave early and reach Shaab El Erg ahead of the crowd.

The second advantage is time. On a group trip we move on to the next stop after a set period; on a private trip you stay in the pod's area as long as you want. That improves the chance of a natural approach, because dolphins come closer when they sense calm rather than pursuit.

We respect nature and animals: we do not chase the pod, we do not drive into the middle of it and we never block its movement. If you want a guarantee of touching dolphins, you will not find it with us — what we guarantee is the best possible chance without disturbing the animals.
