Nothing quite compares to the thrill of spotting wild dolphins leaping through Goa’s warm Arabian Sea waters at sunrise. Our Dolphin Watching Cruise departs early morning from Panaji Jetty when the sea is at its calmest and dolphins are most active. Our experienced local captains know exactly where to find Goa’s resident pods of spinner and common dolphins — and sightings are almost guaranteed on every trip. As you glide across the gentle swells, keep your camera ready: dolphins are known to race alongside the boat, leap from the water, and put on quite a show. After the dolphin experience, we offer optional snorkelling at one of Goa’s hidden reef spots (equipment provided), before heading back for a generous continental breakfast served fresh onboard. This cruise is a family favourite — especially for children, who absolutely love seeing dolphins up close in the wild. It is also available with an optional add-on for a GoPro and underwater camera to capture every moment.
✦ Vegetarian, Jain, vegan & gluten-free options available on request at no extra charge.
"My kids were over the moon! We saw at least 20 dolphins swimming alongside the boat. The captain knew exactly where to go. The snorkelling was a beautiful bonus. Highly recommend!"
"Pure magic from start to finish. The dolphins literally raced our boat for 10 minutes. Then we had a lovely breakfast on the way back. Such a peaceful, beautiful morning."
