Observation of Dolphins and Snorkeling in a rubber boat in Olbia
For the excursions we use comfortable 7.5-metre dinghies with a 250 horsepower engine, equipped with an awning to provide shade during navigation and during stops. They are also equipped with several dry spaces where you can place your personal belongings.
Dolphin observation is carried out trying to interact as little as possible with the animals so as not to disturb their activities and not alter their natural behavior (Blue Way adheres to the "Friend of the Sea Dolphin and Whale Watching" project in compliance with the code of conduct in case of sighting). Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) are wild animals in their natural environment, therefore we cannot guarantee sightings, however the chance of meeting them during our excursions is around 90%.
