Swim with the Dolphins Cruise

 

Take this unique opportunity to Swim with the Dolphins in their world.
(October - April)
 
Encounter these intelligent and playful mammals. Capture this extraordinary experience by swimming alongside dolphins in the warmest waters in NZ. Remember it forever!

 

Your Swim with the Dolphins Cruise includes:

 

Cruising the picturesque islands while searching for the dolphins

Mask, snorkel, fins and a wetsuit for those that choose to swim

Swimming with dolphins in their natural
world*

A complimentary hot drink after your swim

 

*Once we find a pod of dolphins, Department of Conservation regulations will determine whether a swim is possible. Swimming is optional; you need to be a confident swimmer (please see our terms & conditions regarding minimum age, medical conditions and swimming).

 

Our yellow and black Dolphin Discovery III catamaran is purpose built for dolphin viewing and swimming. It has outdoor observation decks to get you up close and personal with the local mammals.

From 2nd April until late October the Swim with Dolphins cruise is combined with the Discover the Bay cruise.
