Kampot dolphin
ecotours
INFORMATION
At Kampot Dolphin Ecotours, we generally schedule our tours every week (depending on the weather and the tide) from 6:00 AM to about 12:00 PM (this is the best time to see dolphins!).
We will post a weekly schedule every monday to let you know when you can book your Ecotour.
To ensure fair compensation for our tuk tuk drivers, boat captains, and spotters, we require a minimum of two bookings per tour. If this minimum isn't met, we unfortunately have to reschedule the ecotour for that day.
Please note that marine mammals are wild animals, and sightings can never be guaranteed. While we’ve had many incredible encounters, there is always a chance that dolphins may not appear.
However, every tour is carefully designed to offer much more: a guided experience that teaches you about Cambodia’s marine ecosystem, Kampot’s local coastal communities, a taste of traditional food, and even a chance to plant mangroves and support conservation efforts.
THE TOUR
SCHEDULE
Ca. 6.00 a.m. until 12.00 p.m
The tour will be approximately 3 hours long, depending on weather and other factors. During the tour, you’ll learn about local marine life, conservation efforts, and the community.
PICK-UP
We will pick you up from your accommodation at 5:30 a.m.!
The tour itself starts at 6:30 a.m.
PRICE
Generally, the ecotour costs $40 per person (Khmer discount available).
This price includes transport to the community, a fair salary for our captains and spotters, and lunch at the community after the tour.
LUNCH
Normally, the community will prepare Khmer food, often including a variety of rice, seafood, and vegetables.
If you have any dietary requirements, please message us and we will discuss food options with the community members.

Reusable water bottle (if you have one)
Sunhat
Shoes that can get wet or muddy (especially after rain)
