Description
Dolphin Encountours in support of DolphinCare-Africa.
The southern most reaches of Mozambique is home to a resident population of Indian Ocean Bottlenose Dolphins that have been socializing with humanity since the early 90’s after Angie Gullan, co-founder of both Dolphin Encountours and DolphinCare-Africa first connected with this highly intelligent species.
Dolphin Encountours initiated Africa's first wild dolphin interaction program in the early ‘90’s after a two year trial period in Ponta do Ouro, Southern Mozambique. During this period co-founder’s embarked on establishing Africa's first Dolphin Observation and Research Center. A strict code of conduct has been developed based on advise and guidelines from international and local marine mammal experts, resulting in a program that allows close interactions on the dolphin’s terms. A beckoning to share the wonder of dolphins with man as well as a profound sense to protect and learn from them has developed unique inter-species relationships where conscious interactions can be explored, seemingly benefiting both species. Ongoing research in calibration with The Natural History Museum in Maputo and various other institutes ensures that programs are run to high standards, where observations are strictly monitored and daily data is collected. Much care is taken when working with this dolphin tribe as crew regard cetaceans {dolphins and whale} as highly intelligent beings that have emotion and thus experience joy and pain.
The Facility offers three and four night tours whereby one will have the opportunity of coming face to face with creations most intelligent beings. Accommodation and meals are offered on-site at the rustic dolphin inspired BeachCamp where the rhythm of the ocean soothes one into a space of peace and calm. Both adults and children are awed at what the ocean has to offer, from the soft white sands and welcoming waves, to the delight of dolphins and gentle whale sharks. Shallow reef snorkeling and whales in winter leave one with memories that will forever be talked about.
