Top Funchal Jet Boat Tours

Funchal’s waters are home to whales and dolphins—and this luxurious catamaran tour offers the best way to spot them. Head to Funchal’s marina and hop aboard your vessel, where you’ll enjoy Champagne, cocktails, soft drinks, and snacks like local bread and cheese. Indulge as you look out for whales and dolphins. Then, if you wish, enjoy a swimming and snorkeling break at Cabo Girao before returning to shore.

Bask in the sun and sea of Madeira, one of the world’s tallest oceanside cliffs, on this catamaran excursion from the Funchal Marina. After boarding, find a nice spot on the deck or one of the four trampoline nets for spotting whales and dolphins. Your crew highlights landmarks and wildlife plus you have a choice of a morning or afternoon departure time.

Discover Madeira from the sea in a fully private setting- the catamaran is exclusively for you, your friends, or family. Your modern catamaran is designed for smooth sailing, stability, and maximum comfort, offering spacious decks to relax, sunbathe, and enjoy uninterrupted panoramic views of the coastline. Dolphins and whales may be spotted during the tour, although sightings cannot be guaranteed. Choose a morning cruise to enjoy the tranquil beauty of the sea under soft daylight, or a sunset tour to experience the island bathed in golden light as the sun sets over the Atlantic. On sunset cruises, the captain selects the perfect anchoring spot to capture truly unforgettable golden-hour moments. We sail along Madeira’s coast, anchoring in secluded bays like Calhau da Lapa or near Cabo Girão, where you can swim, snorkel, or paddleboard. The cruise includes fresh fruit, snacks, and an open bar.

Admire the views of Madeira's coastline and look out for local wildlife at the same time with this catamaran adventure. Eliminate the guesswork of wildlife spotting and benefit from having a crew to take you to areas where dolphins, turtles, and whales have been spotted before. In the summer months, it’s also possible to hop off the boat and go snorkeling.

Embark on an extraordinary expedition to the Desertas Islands, a protected nature reserve and one of Madeira’s hidden treasures. This private full-day adventure takes you across crystal-clear waters to uninhabited volcanic islands, home to the endangered Mediterranean monk seal, rare seabirds, and diverse marine life. Dolphin or whale sightings are possible but not guaranteed, as we respect nature and its rhythm. An experienced crew ensures a safe, comfortable journey while sharing insights about the coastline and marine environment. Sail through endless blue horizons and explore serene, untouched bays of the Desertas Islands, with opportunities to swim, snorkel, or paddleboard. During the visit, the captain will share the islands’ history, wildlife, and past colonization attempts. You’ll also see the Nature Reserve Warden’s House, where wardens protect rare monk seals and seabirds. On board, enjoy an open bar, a selection of finger foods and fruit.
