Overview

This whale and dolphin watching tour departs from Funchal, Madeira, and lasts about two and a half hours. Before boarding the boat, marine biologists provide a short introduction explaining what to expect during the trip. Lookouts on land use binoculars designed for spotting cetaceans to locate whales, dolphins, and turtles in the surrounding sea. Once animals are spotted, the group boards vessels fully equipped for safely observing wild dolphins and whales. Throughout the tour, professional guides offer live commentary to help identify species and explain their behavior. The tour includes the use of snorkeling equipment. Food and drinks are not provided. The recommended dress code is smart casual.
