Dolphin Watching Boat Tour from Portimão – Small Group
Description
This boat trip is a truly unique experience for the whole family. The excursion provides magical encounters: with the dolphins in Portimão. Come aboard on our specially designed rigid dolphin-watching boat in Portimão and feel the thrill of looking for these beautiful creatures in their natural habitat. For more than 20 years, dolphins have been protected species in Portugal. Fortunately, our boats do not negatively affect the lives of these species. On the contrary, sometimes dolphins even like to play with the jets of our boats. Thanks to experienced skippers, the success rate for dolphin sightings in Portimão is 95%. However, it is wild animals that are not fed so there are never certainties! This trip in search of the dolphins in Portimão takes about two hours, but the memories will last forever!

We took the excursion a few days ago, in August; we are a couple with a 9-year-old girl, and it was a very cool experience. Going on the boat through the ocean and finding a family of dolphins was very exciting, and we enjoyed it a lot. Everything was well organized, although we would have liked to extend the visit a little more; it felt short to us. In any case, we were able to spot and photograph the dolphins comfortably. Thanks for the experience!!
Best tour we did in the Algarve.
A beautiful experience, we were lucky enough to see dolphins and a whale in the distance, a marvel
I loved it. The service from Sebastián and Carlos the captain. We saw the dolphins 🐬🐬 a wonderful feeling we loved it I recommend it. Thanks until next time
Very kind staff and top-notch dolphins 👍🏽🐬 I highly recommend, thank you for the experience! Top-notch
Very beautiful moment! We were able to see and follow a group of dolphins for a little while. The guide is very respectful: we do not try to get close to them... we can see that the dolphins enjoy being near us. We recommend it!
Very well-organized excursion. Very nice guide and dolphins were there
Wonderful encounter with dolphins departing from the Portimao marina. Small group excursion (fewer than 15 people) highly recommended. Very nice guides. We were able to observe the dolphins hunting. They even approached the boat, much to the children's delight!
It was an incredible experience and we were lucky and saw dolphins, I recommend it!!!
We had a great trip on the rib. The boat ride was fun travelling at 50 KPH and it felt very safe with everyone seated and wearing life jackets . We saw two species of dolphins . Firstly we saw common dolphins and then the star of the show were the bottle nosed dolphins which were bigger and were racing next to the rib. A great day out and an amazing experience to see these graceful creatures up close.
