Cruises departing from Canet-en-Roussillon

🐬 Practical information – Dolphin watching with a stop in Collioure

⚠️ Special notes

• This cruise is extremely popular and often sells out more than a week in advance. We strongly recommend booking your seats online as soon as your stay begins.
• Our average dolphin sighting rate is 97% since 2017, an exceptional result. However, as these outings take place in a natural environment, the presence of cetaceans cannot be guaranteed on every trip.
• Certified High Quality Whale Watching®, this excursion follows a strict code of conduct to avoid disturbing dolphins and other marine species. Observation time is limited to 30 minutes to preserve their tranquillity.
• By taking part, you contribute to an ethical, sustainable approach to protecting cetaceans in the Mediterranean. Roussillon Croisières partners with Miraceti in this responsible initiative.
• The outing takes place subject to favourable weather conditions and a minimum number of registered participants.
• In choppy seas, those who are more sensitive (children, older people, pregnant women or passengers with reduced mobility) are advised to postpone their outing. The crew alone has the final say on safety conditions.

📍 Boarding

• Please arrive 15 minutes before departure time for smooth boarding, allowing enough time to park.
