If you have always loved dolphins and wanted to see them in real life and if you have found a vacation rental in Croatia, then you are in luck. The incredibly clear blue waters of the sea off the coast of Croatia offers the perfect setting to see dolphins in their natural habitat, playing and jumping, swimming alongside boats, or simply doing their own thing nearby.
The best areas in which you can see dolphins in Croatia are the waters around the islands of Losinj and Cres, where a community of over one hundred bottlenose dolphins can be found, though there are also more that can be found in other parts of the Adriatic. This is the species that most people know, the kind that is on television most often, seen jumping high in the air, playing, and, seemingly, always smiling.

However, no matter how cute and no matter how much of a delight it is to catch a sight of them, it is important to bear in mind that they are a protected species and that it is prohibited to disturb, sail beside, or swim with them. Never fear though, there are different ways to get a look at them. Blue World offers various volunteering opportunities and allow you to adopt a dolphin to sponsor and support further research and protection of the species. You can sail from the port in one of our camps on Cres and Lošinj (Čikat, Bijar, Baldarin and Slatina) and you might just get lucky and spot one.
Dolphin-watching.com also offer excursions to see the dolphins with experienced skippers with extensive knowledge of the area and knowledge of some of the more renowned individual dolphins will take you on a trip to spot some. Then, after the trip, you will also have free entrance to the Lošinj Marine Education Centre where you can learn even more about these beautiful and fascinating animals.
So, if you're interested in ethical ways to see dolphins while on holidays, Croatia is just the place!
