Whale and Dolphin Cruise Season Has Begun















Did you guys know there were whales and dolphins in the Mediterranean? Me neither...until I learned that every Sunday, Decouverte du Vivant offers
Naturalist Discovery Cruises aboard the boat La 
Croix du Sud
V
to get up close and personal with them. 
During the nine-hour voyage you're likely to see striped dolphins, bottlenose
dolphins, Risso's dolphins, pilot whales, sperm whales and the second largest
animal on the planet, the fin whale. You can also expect seabirds,
sunfish, loggerhead turtles, bluefin tuna, bonito and swordfish. Last Sunday, guests on the cruise saw eight whales. The season ends in October.




Cruises depart from Sanary sur Mer in the Var at 8:45 am and
return at 6:30 pm. Prices are 55� (under 13), 66� (students
and teens), 78� (adult) and on demand for groups.  The same company
also offers cruises from Canet-en-Roussillon (whales and dolphins, April
to October, Saturdays only), Port Vendres (dolphins, July and August,
Wednesdays only) and La Grande Motte (sea birds, September to May). 











D�couverte du Vivant is
an eco-responsible whale-watching operator, involved in the long-
term preservation of the cetacean populations of the Mediterranean Sea. For more info or to reserve, click here, call +33 6 10 57 17 11 or
