5.Lobos Island Half-Day Dolphin Watching Trip

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 585 reviews · 5.5 hours · from $85

Review of Lanzarote’s Lobos Island dolphin trip, with fast boat rides, wildlife watching, picnic lunch, swimming, and practical booking tips.

“Boat trip was very good and we did see a pod of dolphins. Would suggest that you need at least 4 hours on Los Lobos if you want to fully explore it. Only issue was we were in Puerta del Carmen with a bus pick up at Biosfera.Bus was 30 minutes late and then proceeded to take us about 500 yards to the harbour to catch the boat.We assumed the boat was going from Playa Blanca & if we had known the boat was going from the local harbour we could have walked & not waited for a bus which was not needed.”
