The deep waters off St Vincent‘s west coast are home to spotted, spinner and bottlenose dolphins, and a passage for humpback whales, sperm whales and pilot whales. The trip cruises the leeward coast with local guides who know the sighting spots.
What you will do
- A cruise of about 3 hours along the leeward coast.
- Searching for dolphins and whales with guide commentary.
- Respectful distance watching, never chasing the animals.
- A drink and snack on board.
Who it is for
For families, photographers and nature lovers. Dolphin sightings are very likely but never guaranteed. Swimming with the cetaceans is not allowed, so they are not disturbed.
What to bring
- A cap, sunglasses and sunscreen.
- Binoculars and a camera with zoom.
- Seasickness tablets if you are prone to it.
Best time to go
Cetaceans can be seen all year; December to April is best, with a higher chance of humpback whales.
