Surreal experience seeing dolphins
arF9553WK, 09-09-2022
The tour guides were excellent and scoured the coast to find us dolphins. Thanks to their expertise we were very lucky to see a pod of dolphins playing in the waters and could be seen clearly playing under the boat, this was a once in a lifetime experience! We saw the famous Benagil caves as well as 2+ extra caves which were beautiful. It was very interesting and the guides provided us lots of information about the coast and about the beaches in English.
The boat does go out far to sea and depending on the waters can be a bit bumpy in places, however, overall I would thoroughly recommend and definitely go back!
Fantastic experience in the Algarve!

Fantastic trip guides. The boat was fun, although I would avoid if you have any back problems. We got to see a family of dolphins two times!!
The Benavides Caves were beautiful and I loved being in a smaller boat for better access.
Highly recommend!
Breathtaking views

Great tour! Our tour guides were fantastic! Highly recommend to others wanting to see the coastline caves and beaches. We also saw dolphins. Tip they don’t tell you bring a jacket! It’s very cold on the water.

This tour was excellent .Andreia kept us inform of our up and coming tour . The crew on the day was excellent,they talked through the history of the caves and surrounding beaches. They took us to see the dolphins which was amazing and spectular. I got some good photos which I am really pleased about.on this day they must have been around 8 dolphins and a baby. If you looking for a good day seeing the dolphins and caves this tour operator is the best ,they have the background and history knowledge that is needed. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
Would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Portugal and cost is very competitive.
Many thanks Michael
Best trip to see all

90% chance of seeing dolphins, we saw lots on our trip. The caves were also beautiful.
The guides were great and very informative. We were out for 3 hours, well worth the money
Fantastic trip great operators
Chris_B, 07-11-2022
What a fantastic tour. Within 45 minutes we’d seen dolphins and even a baby dolphin. Crew were knowledgable and funny. They pointed out all the famous spots, caves, beaches and explained a lot of the history behind them. The tour lasted over 2.5 hours but there are some things to bear in mind. Jumper/jacket, the boat goes fast you will get cold.
Straddling a Bar seat, can be a bit uncomfortable after time.
Do you get sea sick? Probably not the trip for you.
This was the 4th time I’ve been out to see dolphins and one of the best experiences, what a fantastic trip
Great experience with great memories!!!
