Swim with Wild Dolphins in the Marlborough Sounds
Join us on New Zealand’s best dolphin swimming experience in the shimmering, flat waters of the scenic Marlborough Sounds. Swimming with wild dolphins is a genuine bucket list activity – we never get tired of seeing the joy and wonder on the faces of our swimmers! We’ll be searching for Dusky, Bottlenose, Common, Orca and the rare Hector’s dolphins that frequent this unique area.
From 1st December – 31st May, the E-Ko Dolphin Swim Tour will only be running twice a week on Wednesdays and Saturdays only. The tour will then be available to book daily from 1st June – 30th November.
We have made the decision to focus on this tour in the Winter months, which is when we have a much better swim success rate due to the fact that the very social Dusky dolphin frequent the Marlborough Sounds during this time of the year.
E-Ko will continue to offer our Dolphin View tour in the Summer months, which is when we find that you will experience fantastic viewing opportunities here in the Marlborough Sounds – in particular our very rare and protected Queen Charlotte Sound Hectors dolphin.
