Incroyable justinesU9668BS, Apr-2025

Incroyable moment ! On reste sur le respect de l'animal tout en pouvant voir de près ces dauphins. Un grand merci à Emilio notre "guide sous marin" qui a su nous guider au mieux pour les voir et qui a gentillement pris notre gopro pour filmer! (On en revient toujours pas des images prises...). Notre Capitaine Navy a egalement ete au petit soin toute la journée. Et bouquet final .. que dire.. barbecue de mer digne d'un grand étoilé ! La team Lydia boat travaille en famille ... on a adoré ! Le grand père avait pêché nos langoustes, c'est dire ... ! Bref allez y !

Magic!!! 285ingridg, Mar-2025

Magic!!! We made several excursions during our stay! And the one we will all remember is the one with Lydia and her family!! Respectful of Dolphins, turtles, they made us discover magical things! And the meal was just phew!!! Lydia and her team all do for their customers! We recommend 100% this excursion which is not a tourist trap! Bravo and again thank you for this dream day:)

Departure 6am for an extraordinary day. Warm welcome and little care. We swam with dolphins, an unforgettable experience, then fished for oysters and sea urchins. Barbecue on the beach worthy of a star and then we had the chance to swim with a turtle. (Grandpa's rum was very good ☺️) Thank you to the whole team!

If there's one thing you MUST do - it's this Passenger10607624152, Feb-2025

This was truly the most amazing experience. I went there with my family, 5x adults and 1x child (2 years old). We were lucky enough to see and swim with a lone dolphin and turtle, which was such a beautiful experience. The team has a great respect for the ocean and the wildlife, so we felt comfortable doing this. The food was so fresh and really well prepared. Also loved that it was a private boat. We did so much and had a full day, yet it was still so very relaxing. Do yourself favor and book this experience. You won't regret it! 😊👌

Fantastic trip and crew! Roel_A, Feb-2025

Amazing trip! Highlight of our holidays. They took great care of us the whole day, taking lots of time to find and swim with dolphins. The lobster lunch was absolutely amazing! On the way back we stopped to swim with a giant sea turtle, which was mesmerizing. Absolutely recommend to book with them!

It was a fantastic... Oliwia_K, Jan-2025

It was a fantastic experience, everyone should try this! Was so happy to see and swim with dolphins and tortoise! Obviously, it’s nature so it’s not like you gonna see it always, but even if that would fail for some reason the food that was served was extraordinary. So grateful for the opportunity to experience this!

An enchanted paranthesis Frederic F, Jan-2025

Great experience. the best outing of our 15 days on the island. Miguel cared for and really super nice. We'll do it again when we get back, a magical break. Thank you for everything (dolphins in respect of animals, extra meal, lover atmosphere, turtles in final bouquet). Well, it definitely leaves at 6:00 a.m. It stings but really do it.

Dolphin swim and bbq lobster on the beach :) Malcolm S, Jan-2025

Wonderful day trip with capitan miguel and first officer Tyler! Awesome experience swimming close up with dolphins. Miguel was very knowledgeable in locating them and Tyler can swim like one :)) . Followed this up with some great snorkeling at crystal lagoon and then an amazing bbq on the beach with fresh sea urchins, oysters and lobster on the bbq. Rounded off an amazing day with some turtle watching. Thanks again mig and ty!

An unforgettable day in Mauritius Antoine A, Jan-2025

Thanks Miguel and his young colleague sorry could not get name as well as their other colleague on another boat for an amazing day. Your hospitality was great. Be prepared to start early especially if you are staying on the East coast. Left hotel and drove for almost 2 hours before we got to meeting point but fully worth it. We met the guys on the beach and got on the speedboat and headed directly to find some dolphins. It was early and the best time to find them. Had a great swim with them in open sea truly an unforgettable experience. Miguel was very considerate about timing and also about the dolphins and kept some distance and let us enjoy. Then we headed in the lagoon for some snorkelling. Enjoyed seeing coral and lots of different fish swimming close by. We caught some sea urchins and Miguel dived to get some oysters. Well we enjoyed these once we were on the island. Past Crystal rock and onto the island where we had the opportunity to swim, take a walk while our seafood bbq food was being prepared. Delicious is an understatement. Prawn and vegetable skewers to start with after we enjoyed the fresh sea urchins and oysters....cannot get fresher than these. Next we had grilled fresh lobster followed by grilled fish all served with garlic bread. Time to unwind and relax. The trilastedst around 7 hours and on the way back around 12.30 we stopped to swim with turtles A day we will definitely remember on our trip to Mauritius. We were sceptical to book at first as we saw some negative reviews for other boats but we are glad we picked Lydia boats. Cannot recommend enough. Thank you
