“Really enjoyable experience. Well organised and all the staff were very friendly and enthusiastic. We did get to see dolphins very close to the boat, which was lovely to experience. The boat is an excellent craft, quite exciting to travel on, especially on the rig at the front. Special thanks to the crew member who taught me how to dive off the boat, he was very patient and explained everything really well.”

We were 3 people and payed 150€ , think it could be a bit cheaper but that’s ok, one in a life time experience. Would recommend.”

“Sure, it’s crowded. That’s a fact. Other than that, it’s a nice trip. We did not see any whales but saw a rather large pond of dolphins from really up close. They also took us to swim next to Cabo Girao which was fantastic. Overall, a good value for the price. Next time I would opt for a smaller boat with fewer people.”
