Sailing out of Funchal Marina, you'll take in impressive views of Madeira's south coast as you help yourself to the open bar. Watch, as over the course of your three-hour trip, the terrain changes from dramatic sea cliffs and volcanic rock formations to quiet fishing villages and the shady palms of the island's banana farms. The skipper will drop the anchor so you can swim and snorkel in the mild waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Plus, keep an eye out for whales and dolphin as it's a popular spot to see them.

Uns wurde die Reise als Ausflug zu Delfinen und Walen von unserer Reiseleitung Hannah versprochen. Leider war es nur ein teurer schnorchel trip an der Küste entlang. Die Crew gab sich super viel Mühe und der kleine Snack war lecker. Aber es war eben nicht das, was wir gebucht haben
