Overview
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%.
What's Included
- Water and fresh drinks (tea and fruit juices) are always available on board
- Practical guides are available on board for the recognition of marine species
- Use of Snorkelling equipment

What To Expect
We cross the internal Gulf of Olbia, observing the mussel crops, the mouth of the Padrongianus and the Isola della Bocca lighthouse, and then point the bow towards the Island of Figarolo, about 25 minutes by boat. Once in Figarolo, we begin the dolphin watching in search of dolphins (Tursiops truncatus), who regularly frequent this area attracted by the presence of a fish farm. On the luckiest occasions we can really see them up close as they swim alongside and under the boat. At the end of the dolphin watching we head towards the imposing limestone cliff of Capo Figari, where if the sea conditions permit it is possible to admire the splendid seabed. A second stop is planned to snorkel in the crystal clear waters of Cala Moresca or the island of Figarolo.
