Cetacean Watching in Madeira Island. One of the main attractions of Madeira Island is undoubtedly its sea and its rich marine biodiversity. This trip takes you on a relaxing excursion in search of dolphins and whales (and other marine life) off the southern coast of Madeira, discovering one of the most beautiful seascapes of Madeira. A 3-hour trip, during which you will have a strong possibility of observing dolphins and whales in their natural habitat, a unique moment of contemplation that you will hardly forget. You will have the opportunity to dive into the crystal-clear waters of Cabo Girão, one of the highest sea cliffs in the world (580m above sea level). We have snorkeling equipment on board for those who wish to glimpse the seabed in that area, or if you prefer, simply lie back in our net while admiring the magnitude of Cabo Girão high above. During the trip our qualified crew will explain everything step by step, with technical and historical information, in several languages, so that you can make the most of this unique experience. This is undoubtedly a trip that all visitors to Madeira Island (and locals too) should take at least once in their lifetime. A unique, relaxing and enriching experience that you can enjoy with your family. If we are unable to spot any dolphins or whales, don't worry! We offer a second trip so that you have another opportunity to observe these species and all their magnificence in their natural habitat. Enjoy the beauty of the Madeiran coast aboard our catamaran. Possibility of observing dolphins, whales and turtles.

This was such a memorable experience from start to finish. The catamaran was comfortable and spacious, so we could enjoy the ocean without feeling crowded. The crew were friendly and kept us informed about the marine life we were looking for, which made the trip even more interesting. Seeing dolphins swimming through the waves near the boat was incredible, and spotting whales out at sea was a moment we definitely won’t forget. The views of Madeira from the water were beautiful too.
Belle excursion sur le pont supérieur. Personnel très agréable et compétent. Soleil et dolphin au rdv !!
First of all, it was my third time and enjoyed, most of all I have to thank all the crew for helping me as I am an amputee they treated me with care when walking to board the boat as for me it is a bit difficult as I'm above the knee amputee which is a bit of a challenge as I still get pain in my good leg reason for taking time ,to embark and disembark boat, apart from that I did see the whales but just missed out on the dolphins but wasn't to displeased, for anyone with the same condition as me just go for it if you are ever in Maderia.
One of the best experiences of our holiday! The boat ride was smooth, the staff were welcoming, and watching dolphins swimming alongside the catamaran was simply magical. Such a special memory from Madeira!

What an incredible experience out on the Atlantic! The boat trip was well organized, and the crew were friendly and clearly passionate about marine life. We were lucky to spot dolphins swimming alongside the boat, which was such a special moment to witness in their natural environment. The team also shared interesting facts about the animals and explained how they are observed responsibly in the wild. I loved the beautiful views of Madeira from the water, too.
