We loved the experience of seeing the dolphins and couldn’t believe how many we saw. It was so lovely to see them all around us playing in their natural habitats In addition we spotted the Sei Whale which was unbelievable. To finish we saw benegil cave.

Wonderful experience - Wonderful experience. We have seen 3 different dolphin species. All right on the boat. This is very comfortable and has a toilet. The caves were also spectacular, especially in the happy evening sun

Dolphins, whales and beautiful caves - Even the boat trip was an experience, but the highlight for us were the dolphins and we were very lucky to see whales. On the other hand, the beautiful cliffs with the fantastic caves.

Unforgettable experience - Quite a trip. We've seen dolphins and whales. The guides were very nice, entertaining and competent. You could tell they were enjoying it themselves. The caves were also impressive. We were surprised at the speed of the boat. Highly recommended.

Dolphins & Caves, on my! - Amazing experience. We saw an initial pod of Risso’s dolphins followed by a pod of hundreds of “common” dolphins. We were also very fortunate that our guides, Ruben, Joao and David spotted a Bryce whale off the back of the boat!

This was an incredible... - This was an incredible tour and I highly recommend it. We saw a large pod of dolphins. They were everywhere as far as you could see. Baby dolphins included. They were swimming along side of the boat and under the boat. Playing and frolicking. The tour of the caves was impressive. The captain was highly skilled at moving the boat into the best possible spots for photos. Highly recommended

Spectacular trip but safety needs to be addressed - An amazing experience. The rock formations on the coast and the caves were spectacular. The dolphins were entertaining although few and far between. What stopped me from giving this five stars is the fact that there was no safety briefing. Having had experience of the open sea in small boats I would have thought that the safety of the fifty or so people on board would be a priority.

Dolphins and Caves - Really great experience with a wonderful multi lingual Biologist and a very curious dolphin pod moving around our boat.
