Swim with Dolphins - West Coast

Experience one of the most memorable ocean activities in Mauritius with a Swim with Dolphins - West Coast tour. The west coast of Mauritius, especially around Tamarin and Black River, is one of the island’s most popular areas for dolphin encounters, offering beautiful lagoon scenery, mountain backdrops and clear morning waters. This experience usually starts early in the morning, when the sea is calmer and dolphins are more commonly seen along the west coast. As you head out by boat, enjoy views of the coastline, the surrounding mountains and the open lagoon before reaching the areas where dolphins may be spotted. Swimming with dolphins can be an unforgettable moment, but it should always be done respectfully. Choose responsible operators who follow safe viewing practices, avoid chasing or crowding dolphins, and prioritise the wellbeing of marine life.
