Lisbon: Dolphin Watching with a Marine Biologist - Ocean Safari
Description
Our main goal is to find dolphins! Depart from Lisbon on a fast Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB). The adventure starts on a speedboat in search of dolphins as we head into the wide Atlantic Ocean. Get the best views of the Atlantic Coastline, on a comfortable and safe 8.5m RIB as we head out to sea. We will scan the ocean in search of wildlife using several techniques; just like a scientist, you will play an important role in helping us find them. Get to know the different cetacean and seabirds species with an expert Marine Biologist. During 3 hours, you will experience the adventure of looking for wild marine species, like sunfish, sharks, jellyfish, whales or even sea turtles, so close to Lisbon. We want you to get to know them closer. Upon returning to the Tagus river, we will quickly stop in front of the beautiful monuments in Belem and you will admire the iconic 25th of April Bridge. Embark on this Odyssey of nature tourism with the true experts. The tour can be done in 2 boats.

Very good. We saw dolphins!!! Only suggestion the boat is noisy so couldn’t hear the guide very well. Perhaps a headset and a microphone would allow the passengers to hear information they share. Also we passed many sites as we went out to sea, it could have been an opportunity for the guide to point out some of the sites we passed
Thank you very much. We are glad you enjoyed
Very nice activity with kind and interesting guides

We went in the morning with a little hase still in the air and sun on the coastline which made for a great view while searching for dolphins, and then found them where we were able to get about two minutes of great video of playing dolphins
Thank you so much
A magnificent experience! A top-notch and passionate team!
merci beacoup vraiment
Absolutely amazing from start to finish. Incredible few hours on a fun speedboat in the ocean and spending time amongst beautiful pods of dolphins. The highlight of our time in Lisbon and really grateful to the exceptional guide and marine biologist. Found out amazing facts about how dolphins sleep, hunt and work together. Could not recommend this more highly
Thank you so much. We are so glad you had fun!
Magnificent experience. We were able to see both species of dolphin. The tour also allows you to observe historical monuments such as the Belém Tower and the Monument to the Discoveries. The guides were very friendly and invested in their mission of species preservation. They are also perfectly trilingual.
Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire et avis
Brilliant experience this morning, we saw a few different pods and the guides were very knowledgable.
Thank you so much. We are as exciting as you are with the sightings we had today. Kind regards SeaEO team
Superb family experience. Bart, our guide was very nice. We appreciated his complete explanations in French. His enthusiasm was contagious. We were lucky to see several species during this sea trip.
Merci beaucoup Romane!
We saw two sets of dolphins. It was a truely unique experience. The one set of dolphins seemed to like the boats presence. The staff were friendly. We were at the back of the boat and did not find it too cold. Im fact the temperature was pleasant. Boat seats were slightly crammed (close to person in front of you). Would recommend.
Thank you very much for your review and comments. We are glad you had fun and will transmit your review to the crew. SeaEO Team
