Full description
Land of dolphins and sperm whales, the Marina of Taranto awaits you for an excitingDolphin Watching experience: sharpen your eyes and go in search of these splendid cetaceans!
Aboard a comfortable inflatable boat, our skipper will take you to the spots in the Gulf of Taranto where you are most likely to spot dolphins diving into the blue.
Don't forget your camera to document the sighting and take advantage of a refreshing swim in the waters of the Ionian Sea.
What we will do
We depart from the Canal Harbour in Marina di Ginosa (TA) at 10am or 6pm, the times when there is the highest probability of sighting cetaceans in that area.
During the 2-hour excursion, the skipper will take us around the Gulf of Taranto in search of dolphins and sperm whales swimming undisturbed in the waters of the Ionian Sea. The tour will also give us a chance to admire the city skyline and coastal views from the sea.
A stop for swimming and a small aperitif on board with typical Apulian products such as olives, focaccia taralli and other delicacies is included.
