Enjoy a boat trip out of Albufeira Marina and head out to sea for some, sun, sightseeing and – with a bit of luck – dolphin spotting.

Sit back and enjoy the fresh sea air as you sail past breathtaking rocky outcrops and golden, cove beaches in search of the most beautiful caves and rock formations of the region. The coastline here is varied and your Captain will take you to explore the grottoes nestled in the cliffs.

On the way back the boat will shift away from the coast in search of dolphins. There's a good chance of spotting them along with a whole host of other marine life as there's literally hundreds that live in these parts.

Great dolphin sightings and lovely caves. Brilliant trip. There are so many different excursions from that place it would good if tui could offer even more variety to choose from.

Thoroughly enjoyed the trip, we made our own way to the marina and easily found the check in point. Caves were interesting and lady guide gave us plenty of info. Spent a long time searching for the dolphins and I think they nearly gave up but found them eventually and spent a few minutes watching them. Bouncing back on the waves at full speed was exhilarating but take a jumper or accept their offer of a thin jacket as the sea breeze is a bit chilly even on a warm day.

Het was geweldig. Leuke trip. Veel gezien. Er werd veel verteld over waar we waren en wat geschiedenis. Ook nog dolfijnen gespot

Ein sehr schöner Ausflug, den wir gerne weiterempfehlen. Nette Mitarbeiter vor Ort und eine schöne Atmosphäre auf dem Boot. Wünsche von Teilnehmern wurden angenommen und umgesetzt. Super!

We hebben daadwerkelijk dolfijnen gespot van dichtbij en daarna een mooie tour langs de kust met diverse grotten etc. gehad. Goede uitleg van de gids erbij en lekker gevaren. De schipper stuurde kundig langs de hoogste golven, waardoor de boot niet te veel stuiterde.

Tolle Landschaft, tolle Guides, toller Tag.
