Itinerary
Day 1
- Embark on an adventure to explore nature up close.
- Departing from the Santo Amaro dock, we head out in search of dolphins in their natural habitat.
- Our versatile semi-rigid boats allow us to get closer to wildlife so you can observe cetacean and bird species, with a specialist marine biologist on board.
- Sailing along the Tagus River, we pass beneath the 25th of April Bridge, heading toward the Atlantic, offering you stunning views of the Bugio lighthouse and the Portuguese coast.
- Stay alert: dolphins often travel in pods, so spotting one likely means more companions nearby.
- Sometimes, we find them in the Tagus, but we always venture out to sea to search for other groups or, with luck, other species – whales, sharks, jellyfish, or sea turtles.
- We’ll have fun watching curious dolphins, learning to distinguish their differences, social habits, and other fascinating details.
- Get your cameras ready, as they won’t hesitate to approach the boat and play around it.
- Our tours last
- 5 to 3 hours, at the end of which we return to the Santo Amaro dock with a short stop in front of the Belém Tower and the Monument to the Discoveries.

We always almost see dolphins on our tour. Our sighting success of the past 5 years ranges from 95 to 98%. This is, however, a safari and if in 3 hours we do not spot them, it's because dolphins weren't in the area.
This activity requires a minimum of 4 participants. Should this number not be reached, we'll get in touch with you to offer alternatives.
