Great outing - Great outing. Choose the first exit, that of 8:30 am, you are sure to see dolphins and not be crushed by the heat.
The Guide Bruno ultra friendly and the captain at the top.

Magic ❤️ - Great experience! Very comfortable boat, super friendly crew with Bruno as Guide at the top!
A beautiful walk along the coast with a passage in the cave of Benagil (protected place so no stop possible. And so many boats and canoes that would be impossible). The icing on the cake (plus it was my birthday 😜) the dolphins that came around the boat 12 km offshore ❤️ the crew was really great and asked us if we wanted to enjoy the dolphins even if it meant zapping the swim planned later in the program.
In short, a magical and very moving experience, I dreamed for a long time to see dolphins, I was spoiled to see a mom and her little one ❤️
Thanks to the team at the top of Dream Wave! Carla at check-in, Jesus at the steering of the boat, Sylvester who helped the ladies to board, but especially Bruno of an incredible availability and kindness who even shared us a video of dolphins underwater ❤️
I recommend Dream Wave +++++

Amazing - Bengaline caves and dolphins. we had an amazing time on this tour.
The boat goes quite fast so the kids loved that, we were lucky enough to see the dolphins loads of them swimming and jumping along the boat. I loved seeing the caves and the stunning coast line.
they also stop for 5 min to let you swim in the sea but I didn't really see the point of that.
you also get a 10%voucher for the cafe next to the kiosk.
amazing 2 hours with kids(6&10 year old)

No dolphins, and I already knew the caves. - Disappointing, we didn't see dolphins. In the end, they told us that if we really want to see them, we must insist and register every day.
