Full description
Enjoy one of the Algarve’s most popular experiences: watch dolphins in the wild off the coast of Lagos. We depart from Lagos Marina with a team that has been searching for dolphins along this coast for over 25 years, with a sighting rate of around 95%. On board the RIB "Tornado," feel the wind in your face as we glide across the Atlantic in search of bottlenose and common dolphins, and sometimes other marine wildlife. When we find a pod, we slow down and approach carefully so you can watch them swim and play in their natural habitat. A marine biologist joins every trip and explains the animals’ behavior and the marine ecosystem along the Algarve coast. The tour lasts around 1.5 hours, with several departures throughout the day, and includes a safety briefing and life jackets. An unforgettable experience for families and nature lovers.
