All about Whale and Dolphin watching

Meet the Indian Ocean's inhabitants.

Having an encounter with a marine mammal in its natural habitat is always a moving and unforgettable experience. Several Reunion-based companies offer this type of activity, operating with full respect for the environment and marine species, so that future generations will be also able to enjoy these encounters off the coast of the island... The stunning waters of Reunion Island naturally contain an abundance of multicoloured fish and corals, but there are also some more imposing visitors! Dolphins and whales flock to the island's shorelines and visitors are entranced by them.

Marine life is abundant in the waters around the lush Reunion Island, and quite a number of local companies offer organized tours to some of the best spots where sighting a school of dolphins or even a couple massive whales (June to October) is all but guaranteed.
