Additional information:
This catamaran is the original pride of our fleet and remains a crew and passenger favorite. With a comfortable capacity of about 20 passengers, DolphinSafari provides an intimate private boat charter experience. If you have a few children in your group then we are Coast Guard certified for up to 24 passengers.
Her specially designed bow with Eye-Spy Dolphin Nets is so close to the water that you can sometimes feel as though you can reach the animals! And you’re also close enough to hear the dolphins vocalize as they swim right under your feet. It’s almost like being on a kayak. DolphinSafari also has cushioned seating in the partially enclosed cockpit and a restroom.
This vessel is perfect for small groups to view the remarkable year-round whales and dolphins off the coast of Dana Point. A private charter on DolphinSafari is also great for birthday and anniversary celebrations, proposals, employee recognition events, and more.
DolphinSafari offers an intimate, immersive, family friendly, wildlife-at-your-finger-tips adventure.

Very close. Leave your shoes in the cabin and introduce those toes to daylight because there’s a good chance you’ll get wet if you go up on the bow.

Absolutely! DolphinSafari is great for wildlife photography, though be careful with expensive electronics on the bow. A telephoto zoom lens for wildlife both close and farther away is a best bet.
