5.00On arrival to the office the staff greeted us, they gave the whole family waterproof jackets, we then walked to the RIB where we were give life jackets, we then went a couple of km offshore where we looked for whales, after about 30mins we were lucky enough to see a Fin Whale about 3m from the boat, it was amazing. We then travelled to another area where we found a large pod of Stripe dolphins we tracked them for about 30mins. On the way back to Sesimbra we toured the cliffs and went into a large cave, we then had refreshments by the beach. The staffs knowledge was impeccable and it was a fantastic morning.

5.00An absolutely awesome experience! We were lucky enough to see 2–3 fin whales along with huge groups of dolphins all around the boat. It felt magical and truly one of the best experiences of our Lisbon trip. The guide and boat driver were very friendly and shared interesting information about the whales and dolphins, which made the experience even better.

5.00An amazing morning out from Sesimbra harbour, we saw a pod of four or five fin wales - some surfacing together others solo. It was a truly exceptional siting and the views of the caves on the way back was a really interesting. The biologist with us explained how to identify the wales from their fins and we managed to spend some time watching and photographing them.
Excellent 10+++
