Saw lots of sperm whales including a baby. Groups of Pilot whales and swam with dolphins which was unreal. Very respectful company who were knowledgeable and respected nature by turning of engines and keeping their distance. . It’s illegal to swim with whales yet there were many tour operators allowing this that stressed the whales and caused them to swim away. The coast guards appeared to do nothing. Life jackets available and a number of snorkels. Light refreshments served on board, nothing gluten free though. There were no hump back whales, and we were told they are now very rare.

I had a fantastic time on the Mauritius Dolphin Swim & Whale Tour! The shared speed boat tour was well-organized, and the crew was friendly and knowledgeable. We saw dolphins jumping in the water, which was an amazing sight. Although whales were not spotted on our trip, the overall experience was still rewarding. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Mauritius who wants to experience swimming with dolphins. Highly enjoyable and worth the experience!
