Whale-Watching Tours Near Midlands, Plaines Wilhems - Book Your Ocean Wildlife Experience

Summary: We were so grateful to see three whales as part of this experience. It is something that we will always remember and a highlight of our time in Mauritius. The skippers were very professional, safety conscious and respected the animals. We would definitely recommend anti-nausea tablets if you are prone to motion sickness as the water is incredibly choppy. Thanks again to the skippers for making our experience memorable.

Summary: I booked this trip as a birthday gift for myself. :) It was the perfect way to spend the morning of my birthday! Thank you to the wonderful staff.

Summary: Thank you for an amazing tour. We had lots of fun watching female whales with their young. Guides gave us lots of information and were very respectful towards these amazing mammals. We were told from the beginning that they wouldn't let anyone swim with the whales. Would definitely recommend them on just this factor. Other tours allowed lots of tourists swim and this stressed the poor things which is very selfish.

Summary: Many thanks to the great crew. We had a wonderful trip and saw two female whales with their calf and a bull. The crew was very respectful and did not allow to swim with the whales as other excursions did. Our kids were deeply impressed.

Summary: An exciting fun experience. The boat felt safe & the crew were friendly & informative. We were able to take many photos and make wonderful memories. Drinks were also served.

Summary: It was a great experience. Our guides explained a lot to us and were respectful to the animals. We were the only boat in the sea and had the chance to calmly watch the whales in a safe distance for us and for them.

Summary: We had the most amazing experience in this short tour. We were lucky to see at least seven whales and on our way back as a bonus We saw a large number of dolphins near the shore.

Summary: Simply amazing! The crew gave good explanations, ensured our safety and most of all they respected the Whales ! While other companies bring out visitors for swimming excursions with the whales which is illegal, these guys had the ability to track the whales and brought us as close as legally possible. Definite recommendation !

Summary: First rate ethical whale watching. Until we arrived in Mauritius we thought that swimming with whales (as with dolphins) was fine, as so many tourists companies seemed to offer it. We were wrong. After realising that dozens of noisy tourists jumping in the sea next to resting whales and their calves is not only distressing for the mammals but illegal (and for good reason) did we realise you should only book to observe these amazing creatures with a company like Dolswim. Fletcher and Victor, our guides were professional and respectful at all times and their experience spoke volumes. POV if you’re one of those tourists who fancies jumping in the water to chase a picture of a whale, just be mindful that its enormous tail may injure you when it descends..,, ( and it swims faster than you so you won’t see much anyway) you’ll also miss the breathtaking majestic dives we saw when disturbed from its rest by all the snorkelling tourists!! Believe us, ditch the snorkels and enjoy the view.,., ethically and legally … with Dolswim.

Summary: We got to see 2 sperm whales. The entire experience was exhilarating - the adventurous boat ride in the Indian Ocean ( 1 hour to the area where we saw the whales) and the sighting of whales (having read about them and watched in videos). Our guides and the captain of the boat were sensitive enough not to pester the leviathan but ride slowly alongside at a safe distance. One of the most amazing things I have experienced, highly recommended, must do activity. Dolswim - thank you for it.
