Dolphin Watching Tour – Rovinj or Lošinj
Few experiences compare to seeing dolphins leap through the waves in their natural habitat — and the Adriatic waters around Istria offer just that. Whether you depart from Rovinj’s romantic harbor or the island of Lošinj, known as the “Island of Vitality,” dolphin watching is a must-do for nature lovers.
On a typical tour, you can expect:
-
A boat trip lasting 1.5 to 3 hours with experienced local guides
-
Sightings of bottlenose dolphins, often swimming in pods
-
Breathtaking views of the coastline, islands, and sunset on evening trips
-
A peaceful, respectful approach to wildlife — no feeding or chasing
From Rovinj, small-group cruises with eco-conscious operators like Andana Sea Tours offer sunrise and sunset options, often with drinks included. The Rovinj archipelago adds a scenic backdrop to the experience.
From Lošinj, tours led by the Blue World Institute include a marine education component. With a 95% sighting rate, and often the chance to identify specific dolphins by name, it’s ideal for those seeking a more informative and conservation-based outing.
