Enjoy the beautiful West Wales coastline with Dolphin Spotting Boat Trips

When you arrive in the seaside town of New Quay in West Wales, the worlds of the sea and land stand side-by-side to meet you. 

But this time, the beach isn’t the only destination on the cards, and seagulls come in second place to the animals you’re about to see!

What to expect on your amazing boat trips

  • Whether you’re taking a trip on the Dreamcatcher, or hopping on board the Ermol VI – some things come as a guarantee on a voyage with Dolphin Spotting Boat Trips in New Quay.
  • The engine bubbles to life below you, ropes untethered from shore, and soon you’re drifting away with the tide.
  • Then before you know it, you’re headed out further into open water; into the home of the dolphins. 
  • Compared to watching these creatures dance through the water in a documentary, actually seeing a fin break the surface or a spray of saltwater being thrown up into the sky as they exhale is a completely unparalleled experience. 

Explore the beauty of New Quay, West Wales

Along with the dolphins, there’s something rather enchanting about being on the sea.  

You lose time simply staring out into the distance, watching the white-peaked waves ushering out from the hull of the boat. 

Heading out in summer, you’ll have the warmth of the sun keeping you company. But we’ve got to say, autumn brings its own unique beauty to the tour!

So don't miss out on this unique experience, get your tickets here and have them delivered instantly via email or SMS!
