On a boat safari in the Limfjord

In the canal of Thyborøn-Agger, where shoals of herring and other fish are a good food source for them, the chances of seeing dolphins with your own eyes are higher than ever.

Join us on a boat safari and experience the unique nature by the mouth of the Limfjord. Our experienced guide sails into Thyborøn-Agger Canal, where the North Sea meets the Limfjord. The canal is the accessway into the fjord, which many fish seek - and the dolphins follow. Dolphins are identifiable on their fins. The identified animals here are Chewbacca, Tall Fin and a calf, which in May of 2021 was named Leia.

The dolphins are just some of the animals living in this part of the Limfjord. A large colony of seals and a rich bird life is also part of daily life on the western sand banks. Come along and experience one-of-a-kind nature and wildlife.

  • The behaviour of dolphins

    arrow

    Through the last couple of years we have gotten to know the dolphins' behaviour better – and they have gotten to know our safari boats. And even though you should never set your watch based on the habits of dolphins, we do see a pattern in when they show up in the canal. Some days we are lucky, that they are nearby from morning until evening. Other days we only see them sporadically. Once in awhile it happens, that we don’t see them at all. Statistically we see dolphins on 90% of the tours, which is a pretty amazing thing to be able to say in Denmark.

    The probability to see dolphins in Thyborøn-Agger Canal is most often best late in day or early in the morning. That is why we have decided to offer the tours, when we do, because we want to increase your chances of experiencing the dolphins. If you want a lovely boat trip during the day, we recommend a seal safari. With as large of a colony of seals as we have in the area, the likelihood of seeing seals is the same all throughout the day.

    We do not give a guarantee of dolphins on this tour. The animals are wild and decide themselves when and where they want to be. We do however guarantee a lovely tour filled with lots of stories about the animals and the area in general. Animal welfare and everyone's safety - both the animals and our own - is the number one priority.

  • Small children & babies

    arrow

    Before bringing a baby or young child on this tour, please be aware that children can react very differently to being on a boat. Some enjoy the movement and the new surroundings, or may even sleep through the entire trip, while others may feel uncomfortable or become upset more easily.

    One important thing to keep in mind is that the tour cannot be interrupted if your child becomes distressed. As there are other paying guests on board, the tour must continue as scheduled. Spending an hour and a half on a boat with an inconsolable baby is not a pleasant experience for anyone.

    It is not only babies and very young children who may feel uneasy. If you are unsure whether this experience is suitable for your child, we recommend talking to them about the tour beforehand. On the front page of our website, you will find a video where you can see the boats and get a feel for what the tour is like. You are also welcome to stop by the harbour before making a booking.

    Ultimately, you know your child best and are therefore the best person to judge whether this tour is likely to be a good experience for them.
