Benigal Caves and Dolphin tour - We signed up for the Benigal Cave and dolphin boat ride in Vilamoura Portugal. The captain and our guide did a wonderful job informing us where dolphins had been spotted and made sure we were able to see them frolic in the cool waters in the middle of the ocean. The caves were spectacular! We enjoyed this tour and highly recommend if you are visiting this area to sign up for the breathtaking views.

Unique, picturesque & simply so fun! - We saw the Dolphins! & the captain spent a good amount of time for all of us to enjoy. The captain and the tour guide were very friendly and informative. The trip time was perfect and was so nice to ride the coast from Vilamoura all the way down the coastline to see many caves. The tour guide took pictures for everyone who wished in front of a cave. Only 12 people on board, not crowded at all. Book with this tour, you won’t regret it.

A trip not to miss with Pedro & Ricardo - Absolutely fantastic trip, Pedro & Ricardo were excellent hosts/skippers that were very informative. We managed to see a beautiful pod of Common Dolphins who were quite intrigued with us & then the tour into the caves was amazing. A must if your visiting Villamaura!

Cave and Dolphin tour - It was great seeing the Portugal coast and caves. We were also lucky enough to site Dolphins. Our tour guide and skipper Pedro and sorry can’t remember the other fellows name were excellent.

Fantastic Tour to Benagil Caves (dolphins included). - Our Nauticdrive guide, Ricardo was great. We were lucky to see many dolphins on the way to the caves...The caves and surrounding cliffs are breathtaking. Our boat was able to get right into the cave which made for fantastic photos ops. The day of our trip the ocean waters were quite choppy but our captain Pedro was fantastic and got us there and back safely. Excellent tour with Nauticdrive!

Lots of Dolphins - My family really enjoyed this tour. The boat was fast and the crew was knowledgeable about the hot spots for dolphins (we saw many!) as well as the local area.

Excellent - We went on our trips with Ocean Quest. We found them extremely helpful and super friendly. Unfortunately we didn’t see dolphins the sea was rough and it is the luck of the draw your not guaranteed. The staff are so friendly and helpful and will keep answering your questions. Also if you’re booking 2 trips with them you get 10 percent off second trip. Super trip and would recommend this company.

Limit the people on the boat! - Terrible experience. The boat is designed for 12 people with back rest and handles, but we were 16 people in total on the tour. My family we were the fortunate 4 without backrest and handles so we were uncomfortable for hours in the choppy ocean looking for the dolphins.
