Yes, whale safaris on the Little Belt are one of the most popular family experiences in the Triangle Region. Many of the boats allow children to visit the steering house, and there are good viewing conditions from the deck for all age groups.

A whale safari from Fredericia typically lasts 1.5–3 hours. Check the specific boat’s schedule, as departure times and duration may vary.

The whale safari season on the Little Belt typically runs from April to September. However, there may also be tours outside this period. The best months for spotting porpoises are June, July and August, when activity is highest and weather conditions are ideal for observation. From Fredericia, sailings run regularly during the summer season.

The porpoise is one of the world's smallest whales. It can grow up to 180 cm in length and weigh up to 60 kg.

• Time: The time on your ticket is the departure time. Please arrive 15 minutes before departure to ensure everyone boards on time.
• Dress Code: The tour takes place outdoors on the water, so dress appropriately for the weather. Some boats have outdoor seating, while others also offer covered seating.
• Dogs: Small dogs are allowed on most boats with prior arrangement (please ask the skipper on the boat).
• Safety Onboard: The boats are equipped with life jackets and life rafts.
• Food: On most whale watching and boat tours, you are welcome to bring a picnic, beverages, or snacks to enjoy during the trip.

Onboard, you will be greeted by the boat's skipper, who ensures that everyone enjoys a good boat tour. The crew will provide information about porpoises, the natural surroundings, and some of the boats even allow children to enter the wheelhouse and try steering the boat under the skipper's expert guidance. Whale watching is for the whole family.

Yes. From April to September, you can regularly spot plenty of porpoises in Lillebælt, although there is a higher chance of spotting these small whales on a porpoise safari during the summer months. You also have good observation opportunities on land, but if you want a whale watching safari in Fredericia, you can depart from the city's harbor.
