5.00Book very early if on a schedule as there is high demand for this excursion. Lovely staff, safe/secure vessel and the drinks flow. Be prepared for wind/cold. Many dolphin sightings but no whales.
Amazing experience

3.00Unfortunately we did not see any whales or dolphins, just 1 Brown Booby and 2 Royal Terns and 12 Flying fishes. Sometimes nature doesn't play ball but we were surprised to see practically nothing. You should be aware this can happen (15% of the time according to the crew). The crew were professional and friendly but everyone left disappointed, obviously not their fault.
Absolutely incredible experience – highly recommended!

5.00This excursion was truly amazing from start to finish. We were picked up directly at the cruise ship, which made everything super easy and convenient. From there, we were transferred by a small and very fast boat to the main vessel – already an exciting start! After about an hour at sea, we spotted our first whales, and from that moment on it only got better. At one point, we were drifting in the water with whales all around us – an unforgettable and almost surreal experience. The crew was fantastic: very friendly, funny, and at the same time highly professional. You always felt safe and well taken care of. This trip is absolutely worth it – one of the highlights of our entire journey!
Highlight of our holiday

5.00The dolphin and whale watching tour in Barbados was simply an unforgettable experience! Everything was perfectly organized, and from the first moment you felt in good hands. The team on board was super friendly, helpful and provided a great atmosphere with a lot of enthusiasm. You have noticed that they really care about the well-being of the guests. The absolute highlight was of course the dolphins and whales – seeing these animals in the wild was simply breathtaking! A magical moment you won't forget anytime soon. Although there was no great food, but delicious snacks and enough drinks so that you were completely taken care of. I highly recommend this tour – a perfect experience and definitely a highlight of our holiday!
Spectular cores of the island even if whales and dolphins not spotted
