What to expect

Tour in search of dolphins Starting from the beach of the Baia Aranzos hotel with 5 minutes of navigation you reach the island of Figarolo located between the promontory of Capo Figari and Golfo Aranci. For over 10 years a flock of bottlenose dolphins has been sedentary in the waters between Capo Figari and Golfo Aranci. Near the island of Figarolo there is a fish farming plant, where, in huge cages, large quantities of sea bass and sea bream are bred in the sea. The presence of these fish attracts dolphins in search of food. Sailing near the island and the plant, the chances of spotting dolphins are very high. The guides on board will illustrate the characteristics and habits of these specimens.
