Lovina Beach, located on the northern coast of Bali, offers a tranquil alternative to the bustling tourist hubs of Kuta and Seminyak. This serene beach town is renowned for its calm waters, black sand beaches, and, of course, its dolphin tours. Lovina provides an ideal setting for travelers seeking relaxation. Lovina offers a more intimate connection with nature than crowded southern beaches.
The Lovina Dolphin Tour typically starts around 6 AM to catch dolphins at their most active. Small boats, operated by local fishermen, take you into the open sea, where you can witness these majestic creatures in their natural habitat. The tour usually lasts around two hours. This tour lets you see these intelligent creatures in their natural environment while enjoying the sun's rise.
Chasing dolphins in the open sea is an exhilarating experience, BUT over-tourism during the high season may disappoint you. Spotting a pod of dolphins and all the fisherman boats trying to race alongside them creates a mess.
Dolphins are wild animals, and their behavior can be unpredictable. While sightings are expected, there is no guarantee that you'll see dolphins on every tour.
You can have a new experience by swimming with dolphins while holding onto the rope on the fisherman's boat. Just using a snorkeling mask, immerse yourself in the water, holding onto the boat’s side handles, and you will see many dolphins swimming freely in the sea. If you are lucky, you can also see turtles here.
The swimming tour starts around 08.00 when there are fewer boats nearby.
Enjoy the dolphin underwater attraction!
