Overview
Avoid the crowds of regular wildlife-spotting tours and witness dolphins frolicking in their natural habitat on this private boat tour through the Sado Estuary. Cruise through the waters with your skipper, who points out the two species of dolphins that can be found—bottlenose and the darker-hued common dolphin. Your rigid inflatable boat (RIB) allows for speedy travel and up-close encounters, without disturbing the marine life.

We were a family of 6, kids 13yr, 14yr and this was really an amazing experience. Glad we chose this instead of the boat. Your closer to the water and see so much more than you would in a boat.
Such a wonderful experience! We saw a whole pod of dolphins and spent a good deal of time with them and close to them as the boat is small enough to do so. We were then taken along the arrabida coast! We loved the experience and we highly recommend booking
The boat is very uncomfortable, you’re sitting straddling and there’s no shade. It would be fine for 1 hour max. But 2.5 hours was too uncomfortable. We saw a few glimpses of dolphins and obviously you can’t guarantee seeing them but we hung around for over an hour and then spent a good hour going along the coast line which was pretty boring. A shorter, sharper trip out to see dolphins would be better.

Fantastic, saw plenty of dolphins and the guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We were helped by magical weather which heightened the experience, but we encountered dolphins all over the place, which was followed by an interesting tour of the coastline.
Very beautiful experience
The team was very friendly
We will come back 🙌
PS: there is no guide who speaks French ⚠️

Los guías estupendos, nos explicaron todo y cualquier pregunta de la excursión o de otra cosa la respondieron con mucha amabilidad.
Después de ver los del fines fuimos a ver alguna cueva y rocas con formas muy bonitas. Hicimos una parada para bañarnos en un arenal. Y además nos llevaron por la costa viendo sitios como el fuerte, la península... Que de otra forma no hubiéramos podido ver por falta de tiempo.

In einem Schlauchboot kann man die Delfine aus nächster Nähe erleben. Dazu gute Erklärungen (mehrsprachig), eine tolle Rundfahrt an der Küste, Gelegenheit zum Schwimmen an einem Sandstrand. Empfehlenswert!
