Code of conduct

1. Don’t chase the dolphins or drive your boat directly towards them
2. If you wish to approach the dolphins, do it very slowly, keeping parallel to their course and avoid sudden changes of direction or speed which could confuse or disorientate them.
3. It’s better to give them the choice of approaching you. The motor should be maintained in neutral or switched off.
4. Don’t make sudden noises, especially with the engine as these could alarm the animals.
5. Ensure that no more than one boat is within 100 metres from the dolphins, or three boats within 200 m.
6. Don’t stay with the dolphins for more than 30 minutes
7. For your safety and theirs avoid diving or swimming with them, never offer them food or try to touch them.
8. Leave the area accelerating gradually when the boat is more than 100m from the animals
9. Don’t throw litter overboard or leave it on the beach; plastic bags can accidentally be swallowed by the dolphins, causing their death
