The dolphins are there most days, they come into the harbour, swim round and go out - they are a different type to bottlenose (like flipper) or common dolphins, they are smaller and darker.

Is there a regular time, do you know?  We're usually in about 9ish but maybe we're in the wrong spot:(

we have seen them both from Aksazlar side and the marina side (from Yacht Classic hotel jetty), normally in the afternoons about 5.30 - 6.00pm, but having said that they are wild animals and will show up where and when they please!!! Good luck seeing them, they are about - will be worth it when you do.

We have seen them from Calis Prom a few times now. We noticed it's always around sunset.
