5.00We booked this as it was a small group (18 max) and on a speedboat, so you are close to the water and feel every bump and turn. Also, as a bonus, the dolphins are at the same level as you as they jump out of the water. A fantastic experience, exhilarating boat ride, and great captain & guide. Highly recommended.
Fun day on the water

5.00The crew was very friendly, informative, and funny. They explained some of the history of Albufeira and the boat being smaller allowed us to go to a few caves. We were lucky to spot dolphins. They did allow for swimming for those who wanted to do so for a few minutes as the weather and water were good that day. I just wish I had known that was an option as it is not in the deacription so I would come prepared but it was still a great trip.
Great tour!

5.00Great team, the guys were very friendly, highly motivated, and also funny, a wonderful outing with suitable music to the explanations and stories. The beautiful rocky coast with the caves would not have been seen otherwise. We even experienced dolphins. This experience was gigantic.
Great experience: caves, dolphins and great team

5.00The walk was excellent. We were able to see the caves of Benagil and were contemplated with the presence of dolphins. Guides were helpful, communicative and very professional. I highlight the respect they showed for the habitat of the animals and the efficient organization at the Marina check-in. I highly recommend for the security and transparency of the service. A fantastic experience and very well conducted.
Very friendly staff...

5.00Very friendly staff who speak several languages for explanations; we did not see the dolphins, but the caves are magnificent. Excellent value for money. Bring a jacket and be careful with your neck if you have issues; the boat goes quite fast at times, especially on the return.
Go, don't think about it - just book it!!
