Dolphin watching and the Setubal coastline - It was a fantastic boat trip where we could admire the dolphins up close. Then we went along the coastline and did some swimming on a sandbank. The skipper knew a lot to tell. We highly recommend this trip.

Very nice experience - The guides know the dolphins well, they had no trouble making us enjoy two different species of dolphins that cross off Setúbal. Few greedy comments. A good time with your family

Tight seating - A delightful tour enjoying the dolphins and the coastline around Setubal. The watercraft har a double row of saddle type seats which were quite snug and can be uncomfortable if you are unaccustomed to sitting in one tight spot for three hours. We signed up for a tour in English, which devolved into a guide who talked with French and English speakers; the main guide spoke only Portuguese. Absolutely beautiful caves and rock formations along the coast! Lots of dolphins entertained us.!
