We weren’t sure what to expect, but this catamaran cruise exceeded all expectations. From the comfy shaded and open‑deck areas to the clear commentary on marine conservation, it all felt well done. About an hour in we saw a large pod of dolphins, minutes later a pair of pilot whales close by. It felt amazing to be so near these creatures in their own environment. The crew’s respect for the animals and their habitat made the experience feel authentic and special.
We saw dolphins, which was the highlight of the tour. Very well-organized and relaxing. Highly recommended!
The crew was great and professional. Really enjoyed the swim and the views are something else. Definitely recommend 👌
We booked this catamaran tour somewhat spontaneously and it turned out to be one of our favourite outings in Madeira. The sea was calm, the weather perfect, and the dolphins circled the boat for minutes. The narrative from the guide made it educational as well as fun. Don’t forget a wind‑breaker for the upper deck!
What a fantastic outing! We booked the morning trip and the sea was calm, which made the ride very pleasant. The spotter up front pointed out land features and marine life, we saw two species of dolphins and two whale species during our 3‑hour tour. Staff were very professional, and the boat even cuts its engines near the animals to minimise disturbance. Highly recommended for families or anyone wanting a memorable nature experience.
Notre famille a passé un moment formidable lors de cette excursion d'observation des dauphins et des baleines. Les enfants étaient tellement excités lorsque les dauphins sont apparus à côté du bateau ! L'équipage était fantastique, très sympathique et adorable avec les enfants.
Top j’ai bien aimé et mon mari également, nous avons vu de très près les dauphins qui nageaient juste devant notre bateau et les baleines un peu lointain. Une très belle expérience
