Black River: Dolphin Swim and Whale Watching by Speedboat - The dolphin briefing matters

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 595 reviews · 5 hours · from $129Our pick

Swim with wild dolphins, watch sperm and humpback whales, and snorkel reefs on a respectful five-hour speedboat trip in Mauritius.

“It was an amazing experience and most importantly a good company. They were respectful to nature and prioritise animals over tourists and their money because other companies let people swim with whales even if it's illegal and I’m glad that this was not the case.”

Review of Mauritius’s Ile aux Cerfs speedboat tour, with waterfall views, beach time, barbecue lunch, costs, tips, and honest drawbacks.

Review of Mauritius’ Île aux Cerfs speedboat tour, with mangroves, GRSE Waterfalls, BBQ lunch, drinks, beaches, costs, and practical tips.

“Escursione troppo troppo turistica. L’isola dei cervi è molto bella, ma chi come me ha la macchina ed ha visto tutte le spiagge dell’isola, forse non vale la pena. Il tutto si svolge con un trasferimento terra ferma isola, 3 ore liberi e poi visita di una piccola cascata e pranzo in un isolotto, molto Mr. Robinson.”
