    The activity begins with a short briefing about safety rules and the different species of cetaceans you can watch during the tour. Afterwards, we provide you with raincoats and life vests and you will be ready to embark on a 2 - 3 hour tour to see whales and dolphins. Using the technique of lookouts placed strategically on the South coast of the island, critically calculate where the best observation points are. Board a boat that departs to meet these unique animals and begin a trip which is a blend of fun, adventure, discovery and scientific knowledge. Water proof jackets and life jackets are included.

Amazing experience

Published on Jul, 2024

Excellent boat tour which lasted circa 2 hours and 30 minutes. We were very lucky with the weather - nice temperature, clear skies and calm waters. During the tour we spotted sperm and pilot whales, and also saw various types of dolphins. Also, although whales are much larger animals, the dolphins interacted more with the boat by coming closer and swimming alongside. The tour agency asked us to arrive 15 minutes before for the safety briefing and getting a life vest. Recommended to take sunscreen as the boat is open and clothes that can get wet. Some participants had sports shoes while others wore flip flops. A wind breaker jacket might be useful depending on the weather and the agency had some available for free.

Great tour!

This was such a fun experience. The crew is very knowledgeable and work their hardest to show you as much marine life as possible. Highly recommend.

I like that they do not over pack there boat. I noticed that other whale watching tours from other company’s packed 20 people on there boat. We only had 9 passengers on ours. Also, the biologist with the company was very knowledgeable and friendly. She answered all of our questions and gave us tons on information about the species we saw. We saw many sperm whales, beak whales (which are a rare site), a blue shark, and of course tons on Portuguese man-o-war. Honestly, I would have booked another tour with them the very next day if I wasn’t leaving!
