Very nice sail to the caves and dolphins - The trip was amazing. We saw the caves from very near and the Benagil cave inside. We sailed along the coast, seeing also other famous beaches. Then we sailed deeper to the ocen to see the dolphins which we really saw. The crew was nice and welcoming, The time of the sail was adequate. We liked the trip very much.

A must! - It was an amazing 2.5 hours on a catamaran. We saw plenty of dolphins and even a whale. We then did a coast tour and saw caves. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Rafael the goat - We went on the dolphins & caves tour with our gorgeous guide Rafael, he was so nice and offered me his jacket and was overall such a silly and goofy goose. His entertainment was so popping I didn’t realize two whole hours had passed, the best two hours of my life!

One of the best experience ever - The view was wonderful , everything is scenic, breathtaking cliffs, we had the chance to see the dolphins very closely.2.5 hours is perfect for dophins watching plus benagil caves as it's a good deal for the price and also specially in summer as it can get super hot.This trip is also suitable for people who experience a little bit of sea sickness as the boats usually have toilets, guides that help you with your sickness and they have cold aeriated drinks to help with it.This is a must do if you are in Lagos! don't forget to carry a jacket as it can really get chilly while coming back.

Lovely scenery along the coastline, friendly staff, and we saw got lucky and saw some dolphins! - Very friendly staff and humorous. The boat was a bit faster than I had imagined, but it was okay because the boat was quite large (at least larger than many boats on similar tours). We're lucky and saw a lot of dolphins. If one boat finds them, then they let the others know (even if its a different company, I think thats nice of them helping each other, making the best possible experience for everyone despite the company). Lovely scenery along the coastline, we went inside the benagil cave and saw a lot of other caves and clives. I recommend a waterproof bag if you're bringing one with you and maybe a jacket. The crew offered a few wind jackets to those who wanted. There was a bathroom onboard, and they sold a few drinks. Overall, a lovely experience 😊

Nice relaxing afternoon - Very nice to do. The cave itself is very beautiful, unfortunately we have not seen dolphins. It is mainly almost 2.5 hours of relaxation and you can also swim in the ocean for a very short time if you want. Friendly staff, friendly staff.
