IN SEARCH OF WHALES AND DOLPHINS

In a nutshell The crystal waters around Granada are home to 15 different species of cetacean, including dolphins, orcas and sperm and baleen whales, especially humpbacks. A priceless opportunity, then, to enjoy a close encounter with these fascinating mammals.

The programme

• Piloted by our expert skipper, and with the aid of a hydrophone – a special microphone for capturing underwater sounds – we set off in search of whales and dolphins.
• Of course, nature is unpredictable and we cannot just arrange sightings whenever it suits us, but with a bit of luck we could find ourselves surrounded by dolphins.
• Using the on-board sonar system, we can listen in on the sounds produced by these large marine mammals. A pair of binoculars will also come in handy, and you’ll want to have a camera ready to capture your encounter with these extraordinary creatures.
