Amazing Experience! - We booked this trip while staying in Luz. We were a family of 9 with ages ranging from 12-64 and booked the trip for 12.30pm 12/9/24 as to go to see the Dolphin's was on my "must do" list. We had an absolutely amazing time and saw both Dolphins and Porpoises. The crew were both so professional, informative and fun and made sure that we had a truly memorable experience. Which we did 100% so thank you crew :)) We all loved it and will remember it for many years to come. We hope to be back in 2026 to relive the experience. Very highly recommended :)).

Beautiful, fun, magical nature - It was a beautiful trip and we were so lucky to get up close with a humpback whale, hammer head shark and some dolphins. We would highly recommend it and definitely come back the next time we are in Lagos

Two groups of common dolphins - We had the chance to see two groups of about 15 to 20 common dolpins and approach them from a distance. I particularly liked that we respected them, stayed at a distance and let them come close to the boat. The marine biologist and the staff provided information about their behaviors, which was very interesting. I was very happy to get to see these beautiful animals in their environment. Thank you to the whole team!

Wunderful early morning tour - Wunderful tour in a speedboat specially constructed for such tours. Competent guide and competent skipper. Saw a group of 15 dolphins very close to the boat. Took the early morning tour because the sea is more calm then.

Dolphin boat trip - We took 2.30pm trip from Lagos Marina. Boat ride was fun and found two lots of dolphins. I was surprised how far we travelled to try to locate them and nice amount of time watching the dolphins. Boat ride can be a bit bumpy as quite fast.

Great experience, friendly and competent company! - Great experience. We did the first tour in the morning at 8 am, so the atmosphere in the harbour was very relaxed and also the sea very calm. It was worth choosing this company: very competent and experienced, super friendly, and a cool boat! We had plenty of time to watch dolphins during the 90-minute tour. So not just some hasty photos. Can I recommend 100%!

Amazing experience! - Amazing!! The crew was amazing and they could tell us all the things about the dolphins. I don't recommend it if you get seasick easily because you go into the ocean at high speed and of course the waves!! But it was really fun to do. saw many dolphins close to the boat. such an amazing experience!
