Experience the Bay of Kotor through the eyes of dolphin researchers on the tour that encompasses beautiful Montenegrin scenery and marine mammal conservation and education practices.
Join a marine expert/dolphin researcher aboard a boat and set out on the Bay of Kotor. While the surroundings are impressive, this is not just a sightseeing cruise — it's a window into the lives of the dolphins that call the bay home. Listen to the action beneath the surface with a hydrophone — you may be lucky enough to hear the dolphins clicking and whistling as they communicate with each other.
Get closer — not just in terms of proximity but also in terms of leaning into their world. Accompanied by marine mammal specialists who study these intelligent creatures in their natural habitat, you'll gain insight into their behavior, communication, and the challenges they face.
This is an unforgettable experience that encounters dolphins on most outings; however, they are wild animals and are free to come and go. If no dolphins are sighted, you will still learn about them, their habitat, and those working tirelessly to preserve the bay, and you will enjoy the fantastic scenery surrounding the magnificent Bay of Kotor.
Please note: Tour requires walking approximately 400 yards from the ship to the day boat, accompanied by a coordinator. Terrain includes a marine ramp from the pier to the boat, which can be very steep at low tide, and several steps. Wear comfortable walking shoes. Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable/reef-safe sunscreen. Bring bottled water. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed.
