Boat Trip with Snorkeling with Dolphins & Whales from Saint-Gilles

About the Activity

What to Expect

Embark on our boat for a swimming and snorkeling boat trip along the coast of Réunion, departing from Saint-Gilles. From the moment you step onto our RIB boat, which accommodates up to 12 people, you will find yourself in a cozy and inviting atmosphere. As we cruise along the stunning coastline, you can relax and enjoy the breathtaking views while keeping an eye out for local wildlife. The waters are home to playful dolphins and a variety of local birds, which you might spot swimming and flying freely in their natural environment.

Our first highlight is the dolphin watching experience, where you can observe these majestic creatures as they frolic in the waves. Between June and October, the chance to see migrating whales is an extraordinary treat. We then make a stop for swimming and snorkeling, offering you the chance to witness the vibrant marine life of Réunion up close. You will be amazed by the colorful fish and might even see dolphins and whales in the water, but we always keep a respectful distance to ensure the wildlife is undisturbed.

Continuing along the coast, you will have ample time to soak in the beauty of Réunion's coastline and relax as the boat gently glides through the water. The tour is ideal for people seeking a relaxing activity and enjoy the wildlife and beauty of the island.
