10 / 10
Gianni skipper good and capable. He did everything he could to please everyone. We managed to see the whale and sperm whales, as well as bottlenose dolphins and dolphins. Not to mention the skill of the biologist who with her enthusiasm and her knowledge of cetaceans, made us live a beautiful and very interesting week. Brava Silvia!!

Everything you need to know about WWF research and whale watching cruises

What's the best time to board a WWF cruise and what are the best places for sightings?

In general, you can go on a WWWF research and whale watching cruise year-round. There are times that are more suitable to combine the cetacean sighting experience with the pleasantness of enjoying long, warm days.

During spring and autumn, weekends and long weekends are organized for research experiences that focus on the Italian coast, particularly in Sardinia, Liguria and Tuscany. In summer, in addition to weekly cruises to Italian destinations, cruises to Greece and the Balearic Islands are also added.

Does one need to have sailing experience?

Absolutely not. Anyone can board a WWF cetacean research and sighting cruise. Moreover there are no age limits and anyone can enjoy this experience: from the lone traveller, who wants to combine the pleasure of meeting new people on board with the thrill of experiencing cetacean sightings, to the family who wants to experience an adventure that is perfect for adults and children, to couples and groups of friends looking to relax, have fun and get in touch with nature.

The WWF research and cetacean spotting experience is a great way to experience the wonders of nature.
