The new season starts on 18th June 2021. Depending on the weather, there will be several excursions per day, which you can book a few days in advance.
Where?
Starting point for our excursions is Tarifa, the southernmost city of the European mainland. Meeting point is the firmm-office directly in the harbour (on the right side).
What?
Watch the whales and dolphins of the Strait of Gibraltar and learn interesting facts about the animals! You are also welcome to book our observation weeks.

Of course, firmm complies with all required hygienic precautions. We thank you very much for your cooperation and wish you a pleasant time with us.

How does it work?
- Meeting point/tickets: one hour before departure at the harbour office
- about 30-minute introductory lectures (at least in German, English, Spanish) with interesting information.
- Tours at 8:00, 9:00 or 10:00: Meeting only 15 minutes before departure (lecture after the tour)
Please note: We observe whales and dolphins in the wild. Even though we spot animals on 99% of our trips, we never know in advance which species we will encounter.
