This boat is super fast and you’ll feel the adrenaline flow through your veins while enjoying the dramatic ocean views. We guarantee you will have a fun time with pure emotions. During this excursion, you will have the chance to discover stunning caves and rock formations of the Benagil area. In terms of caves, the highlight of this boat trip is the cave of Benagil. Benagil is one of the biggest and most beautiful sea caves of Portugal and maybe even Europe. Before returning to the Marina of Portimão, the boat will distance from the coast to start our search for wild dolphins. We find dolphins on almost all boat tours, yet we cannot guarantee you’ll find them because they are totally wild and not fed. Our experienced crew will do their best to find these beautiful mammals and will count on your help. Are you ready?

This boat trip is a truly unique experience for the whole family. The excursion provides magical encounters: with the dolphins in Portimão. Come aboard on our specially designed rigid dolphin-watching boat in Portimão and feel the thrill of looking for these beautiful creatures in their natural habitat. For more than 20 years, dolphins have been protected species in Portugal. Fortunately, our boats do not negatively affect the lives of these species. On the contrary, sometimes dolphins even like to play with the jets of our boats. Thanks to experienced skippers, the success rate for dolphin sightings in Portimão is 95%. However, it is wild animals that are not fed so there are never certainties! This trip in search of the dolphins in Portimão takes about two hours, but the memories will last forever!
