Day of Whale Watching on a sailing boat at Elba.

Excursion in a sailing boat in the “Cetacean Sanctuary” searching for Mediterranean whales and bottlenose dolphins.  The excursion is in the heart of the “Cetacean Sanctuary” between the Islands of Elba, Pianosa and Montecristo. In this stretch of water there is the highest concentration of cetaceans in all the Mediterranean.  It is easy to find bottlenose dolphins (large dolphins who love to follow the wakes of ships) and it is not as rare as you think to meet Mediterranean whales (second only in size to the blue whale), and the spotted dolphin (small dolphins that move in shoals and make spectacular jumps out of the sea).  

With our sailing boat, commanded by an expert skipper and in the company of an environmental guide who is specialised in sightings and recognition of cetaceans we will make a boat excursion to find and study these marvellous inhabitants of our seas.
