La Ametlla de Mar Swimming with Tuna Experience

Experience a unique underwater adventure as you swim alongside magnificent tuna, tropical fish, and sharks in the stunning waters of Tarragona. The La Ametlla de Mar Swimming Tuna Experience offers an unparalleled opportunity to engage with these incredible creatures.

La Ametlla de Mar Swimming with Tuna Experience

Your journey begins at the designated Ametlla de Mar Port, where we convene to embark on this extraordinary adventure.

After capturing some memorable photos, we'll set sail on the Balfegó Tour catamaran. During the scenic 20-minute voyage towards the bluefin tuna pools, you'll watch an enlightening video titled From the Sea to Balfegó, which provides insights into the biology of the tuna and the fishing methods employed.

Upon arrival at the bluefin tuna pools, we will anchor to allow you to observe the 300 tuna specimens housed here. These impressive fish can reach lengths of up to 8 feet (2.5 meters) and weigh as much as 330 pounds (250 kilograms or 23 stones 8 pounds).

Following a brief overview, get ready to snorkel while swimming with the tuna. You will have the chance to encounter these animals in their natural environment for a full hour, gliding alongside them.

Once the snorkelling segment wraps up, depending on your chosen option, we’ll head back to the catamaran for a delightful tuna tasting experience. After enjoying 2 hours on the water, we will complete our excursion by returning to the port of La Ametlla de Mar.
