Málaga and Dolphins
Malaga

by coach, boat & on foot
This exciting experience begins with an approximately 45-minute unguided coach transfer to the dolphin-watching boat embarkation point.
Here you will embark the boat for an approximately two-hour sailing off the coast of Andalusia, looking out for dolphins frolicking in the waves as well as admiring the unique skyline of the Costa del Sol. You’ll be sailing in the Alboran Sea, a transition zone between the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean.
This body of water is home to the largest population of bottlenose dolphins in the western Mediterranean, so the chances are good you’ll spot a few. Weather and sea conditions permitting, you may be given the opportunity to enter the waters for a swim. On a clear day, you may be able to see Morocco on the horizon.
After your boat trip you will re-join your coach for the unguided return journey to the port.
