Easy to find. We saw 5 bottle nosed dolphins and a turtle. Well looked after by friendly young crew. Advised to check in 30 minutes pre-departure however that was not strictly adhered to.

Brilliant the only way I’ll ever do a boat trip on holiday again, the other boats were packed ours just 16 of us. The staff were great very informative and very mindful of the dolphins welfare.

Fabulous trip! Definitely a VIP trip - we were so well looked after & the catamaran is top class & spotlessly clean. We saw whales in the distance but sadly they'd gone down before we got there, but lucky enough to see a large pod of Atlantic Spotted dolphins close up for 10 minutes (that's the allowed time period to follow them). The crew are very knowledgeable about marine life & happy to answer any questions.
Would definitely recommend this trip.

Large boat with limited number of guests. We saw some other catamaran tours out in the water and they were jam packed with people; so glad we booked this company! The staff were incredible and so accommodating. We found a pack of dolphins, jetted around for a bit, and then had a chance to jump in the water (only a few did, the water was freezing). Would highly recommend this!

This was such an amazing experience! Obviously, you can never expect anything on these types of tours, as wild animals don't turn up on command. However, we did see the short-beaked common dolphin, and they were amazingly close to the boat.
The tour guides explained the places on the coast and offered us various alcoholic drinks and Maderian snacks. Well worth it!

We liked this excursion. The crew was lovely, there were around fifteen of us on the boat.
Photo taken by the crew on the catamaran which they send us afterwards.

An excellent trip! We were looked after so well. Sadly didn’t see any whales but saw Atlantic spotted dolphins, which was a treat.
A spotlessly clean catamaran with extremely attentive staff. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Absolutely amazing experience. We spotted dolphins around the boat near enough straight away. The staff were so friendly and accommodating and letting us know a load of useful and interesting facts about the dolphins and sealife around the island.
The boat was immaculate and huge for the amount of people they allow on the trip.
Drinks and food was plentiful and we had chance to jump in the sea.
Really recommend paying the extra to go on this boat over the other crowded catamarans you see leaving the harbour.
