Waterskiing, tubing, wakeboarding… Let’s have fun!
Enjoy a lagoon cruise, visit the Crystal Rock and snorkelling sessions in the lagoon.
Swim with wild dolphins, snorkelling session and visit of the Crystal Rock…
Life is about collecting experiences that take your breath away. This is one of them…
Each morning on the west coast of Mauritius, we meet wild dolphins who approach the coast to socialize, relax and play. It is home to two species of dolphins: bottlenose dolphins and spinner dolphins. We usually see either, except if you are very lucky and meet both species, which happens sometimes!
We love these marine creatures and our purpose is to lead our guests through this life experience; passion and respect are our priorities. The crew will start the excursion with their briefing and give you details on: safety, respectful dolphin interaction, trip schedule, etc…
We encourage an early start for a peaceful and respectful interaction with the dolphins : 6:15 during the winter season 5:30 during the summer season. We watch and swim with them for about 60mins to 90mins. Then we sail to our favourite snorkeling in the natural aquarium to see tropical marine life: clams, fish, sea stars, corals… The last stop on the trip will be the world-famous Crystal Rock in the White Lagoon. A fragile corallian formation in the middle of crystalline water.
The departure arrival is from our office at L’Estuaire in Black River (refer to location point).
To ensure your comfort, all snorkelling equipment will be provided on board, and homemade banana bread will be served in the morning.
Pssst… Stay calm positive, the dolphins can feel your energy as they have cerebral emotional ratios very close to us, humans!
➞ Please note that the number of dolphins on site and the behavior of the animals change on a day-to-day basis. We don’t control those two things because they’re wild and they can’t predict encounters beforehand. Our team adjusts and makes every effort to offer a memorable interaction.
Add your personal underwater photos and videos with dolphins, taken by our photography guides using the latest GoPro cameras. Please note that the final outcome of the photos and videos will be subject to the interaction with the dolphin, your swimming skills, and the overall sea conditions. Once reviewed and approved, all files will be provided to you on an SD card at the end of the trip or sent via WeTransfer.
Maximum Capacity per boat is 8 people. You can reserve the boat (price remains the same for up to 4 guests) and specify any additional people to each boat.

We had the most amazing trip with Vitamin Sea. During our honeymoon we did the early morning dolphin swim with snorkeling and visit of the Crystal rock! The boat itself was very nice and Stefan and Mathieu took care of us in a lovely way - we were snorkeling so close with the dolphins, it was a magical once in a lifetime experience! I would also recommend to book the photographer, which we didn’t do but would have loved after having seen all the amazing spots! Thank you again for a beautiful trip
We are two siblings that love the ocean and in our visit to Mauritius we were looking for the best possible and most respectful marine life encounters. We contacted Vitamin Sea and from the first email we knew we have found our place! Sharon and Alexandra were exceptional in managing all our requests and questions and arranging the best possible itinerary to make the most of our trip. We booked 2 days of dolphins + sperm whales and 1 day of dolphin + photoshoot, and 1 day of Southeast Discovery. Every single trip was outstanding ! The boat is very spacious and comfortable, and the owner Cedric is the most fantastic guide, underwater photographer and knowledgeable guide in Mauritius. All the interactions were putting animals and safety first, extremely respectful and also once in a lifetime experience. We swam with both bottlenose and spinner dolphins, we had very close encounters and eye contact, and we also enjoyed the sperm whales as well (there were so many of them surrounding us with no other boat around, once in a lifetime encounter!). The pictures turned out beyond amazing (and I am very demanding with my underwater content, but Cedric was beyond all expectations :) ). I will definitely be back, because Vitamin Sea Mauritius gifted me with my best memories in the sea! THANK YOU TEAM
Nous avons choisi l’excursion dauphin et baleine et ça restera de loin notre meilleur souvenir de notre séjour à Maurice. Roberto et Thomas ont été géniaux du début à la fin en commençant par un briefing pour nous présenter le déroulement de la journée ainsi qu’une présentation des différents mammifères. Nous avons vu dauphins, baleines à bosses, cachalots et même des globicéphales. Le fait d’être accompagné par un nageur (Thomas) est rassurant. Un grand merci à Vitamin Sea et plus particulièrement à Roberto notre capitaine et Thomas notre accompagnateur nageur, 2 passionnés.
Accueil super professionnel, tout en étant très convivial, excursions sensationnelles, avec des skippers au top (encore merci à Brice et Thomas !), flexibles sur les dates et surtout un rapport qualité prix exceptionnel ! Je recommande à 100% La sécurité est respectée et le respect de l’environnement et des dauphins est de rigueur.
Nous avons passés un superbe moment avec Vitamin Sea. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié l’attitude respectueuse de nos hôtes envers les baleines. Nous avons pu voir que ce n’était pas le cas de toutes les embarcations autour de nous. Nous vous encourageons à continuer comme ça. Merci !
Thanks for the unique experience with the dolphins and the whales. We were very nervous and scared but the crew "Stephane & Johan" gave us a lot of security and calmness, although we weren't easy to handle. 🤭
It was a peaceful and joyful atmosphere!
We can heartily recommend it. 🐬✨ Greetings from the German Girls Romina & Patricia.
