Dolphin tour

The dolphin tour in Lovina, Bali, is one of the region’s most popular attractions. Lovina, located in North Bali, is known for its calm, clear waters, making it an ideal spot for early-morning dolphin watching.
Dolphin tours typically start at dawn, around 5:30 AM to 6:00 AM, because dolphins are most active in the early morning. Tourists are picked up from their hotels or gather at Lovina Beach to board traditional outrigger boats known as jukung.

The boats used for the tour are small, traditional wooden boats with outriggers, which provide a more intimate and close-to-the-water experience. The boats are stable and safe, and the local boatmen are experienced in navigating the waters.

The main highlight of the tour is the opportunity to see pods of wild dolphins swimming and playing in their natural habitat. While sightings are not 100% guaranteed, the chances are high, and multiple pods of dolphins are often seen. Visitors can spot different types of dolphins, such as spinner dolphins and bottlenose dolphins, performing playful jumps and flips.

Aside from the dolphins, the tour also offers a beautiful view of the sunrise over the mountains in the distance. The calm waters of the Bali Sea and the golden morning light create a serene and picturesque atmosphere.

The tour lasts about 2 to 3 hours, giving visitors ample time to enjoy the dolphin sightings. The experience is peaceful and enjoyable, with the added beauty of North Bali’s coastal landscape.

Dolphin tours are reasonably priced, making them accessible for most travelers. Prices generally range from IDR 100,000 to 150,000 per person, though they may vary depending on the provider and any additional services offered.
