The opportunity to see Dolphins, Whales, and Turtles abounds, given the variety of cetacean species present in Madeira throughout the year. While some species are more frequently seen in the warm summer months, others are more prevalent in the cooler winter season, ensuring a potential wildlife encounter anytime you visit.

Brilliant experience… - Amazing trip from beginning to end. The crew were super attentive, always making sure our little ones were safe moving around the boat. We saw a pod of bottle nose dolphins and it was incredible. You also have time for a swim in a beautiful cove and there is a bar on board, which is reasonably priced. Would highly recommend!

Dolphins in the ocean - What a lovely day! The weather was fantastic and we saw Dolphins! What I loved about this trip was that the sailors would collect any rubbish they saw along the way to protect the sea life! Take sunscreen the wind can be deceiving!

Anything but cetacean research. The whales don't even look for them - Fake excursion to look for cetaceans. The boats, all regardless of operator, all leave more or less together and take tourists to the same point where they are sure to find some dolphins. They stay in the area for a quarter of an hour and then sail a little inshore and then stop for a swim. More time bathing than anything else. Cetacean research does NOT exist. Go to a dolphinarium it's much better.
