What you can expect

For this special excursion we will depart from the Marina of Olbia and, crossing the inner gulf, we will go towards Figarolo Island situated to approximately 25 minutes of navigation in a comfortable dinghy. Sailing at very low speed, we will begin the observation of the dolphins that attend assiduously this area.
Without interfering with their activities, on the most fortunate occasions you can see them make jumps and evolutions a few metres from our boat, with insights from our marine biologist guide. At the end of dolphin watching, we will head to Capo Figari, where you can snorkel.
There will be a second stop in the crystal clear waters of Cala Moresca or near the Figarolo Island, where there is a small colony of mouflons. Do you love sea and their animals? Then you can live a unique experience by booking your seats now!
