5.00What fun! Out into the ocean off the coast of Sesimbra in a boat ( with super comfortable seats ) with Bolhas Tours where we stopped three times to see Dolphins diving and surfacing for food ( fish ). Some played with our boat, racing us on either side. Were saw mothers with their babies, teaching them how to fish. A beautiful day. Rosa, our guide, shared some amazing facts about Dolphins nine of us knew. Well organized, wonderful staff, a great way to spend 3 hours in the open sea on a sunny Portugal day. ☀️
Fabulous trip - would recommend

5.00We had a fantastic experience. Our team was Enrique and Darcio. We saw the first dolphin group right after a short time. Then we went high speed out to the Atlantic Ocean and watched a larger group hunting. Both groups got close to the boat and we were able to shoot great shots. There was then a stop at Praia do Ribeiro do Cavalo and the caves nearby. All in all can wor the atour really recommend, the team was great, the communication great. We strongly recommend that you take a Wlnd jacket with you, no matter how warm it is! Those hungry for it can stop right next door at the fish restaurant.
Friendliness, ethics and professionalism
