Let’s Find Hong Kong’s Pink Dolphins

How many Pink Dolphins can you spot?

Hong Kong’s pink dolphins are rare and endangered. Certainly, it’s a privilege to be able to observe them in their natural habitat.

So, we were sad to hear that Hong Kong’s only ecological dolphin watching organisation, DolphinWatch, needed to temporarily halt operations due to pandemic restrictions. Then we got to thinking, that maybe we could help and it turns out that we could and we did! Ladies and Gentlemen, we’re excited to be working in collaboration with Hong Kong DolphinWatch. Together, we are able to offer Hong Kong’s one and only Dolphin Watching Excursion, run with ecology in mind.

Trips are running every Sunday from Tsim Sha Tsui, meeting at 8:50am. More details can be found on our Hong Kong DolphinWatch tour booking page.
