2.Tamarin: Guided Kayak Tour with Dolphins

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 190 reviews · 2h 30m · from $64

You’ll meet a Yanature guide in a green T-shirt and paddle from Tamarin Beach into the bay at sunrise. Guides such as Théo, Yan, Mathieu, and Gilles share local wildlife facts while you watch for spinner and bottlenose dolphins. If dolphins stay away, the route follows the Tamarin River.

“I booked in for this tour and then accidentally overslept. The company were absolutely fantastic about it and rebooked me for the next day, a big thanks to Tatiana for sorting it out for me! Our guide Mathieu was lovely and made sure the group were ok and happy. The sunrises was beautiful and it was very peaceful on the water. We were lucky enough to see 3 bottlenose dolphins and as we still had time, we went for a little kayak up the river and saw the beautiful Mountain View's. Perfect way to start the day”
