Lisbon Dolphins - dolphin watching in Lisbon

Summary Description

You will sail into the Atlantic Ocean on a search for dolphins, after passing by the iconic monuments of Lisbon. This experience has 9 out of 10 chances to be much more than a boat tour. Finding the dolphins is a magic moment that you'll be remembering for decades.

Lisbon is the European Capital with more sightings and more dolphin and whale diversity.

It usually takes 2 hours to visit them but we have an extra hour if needed. It seems long but time will fly, as your host is a dolphin expert with 12 years studding these specific dolphins. He will take you on a learning quest, about how to identify dolphins and whales, learn how they evolved and why are they so special. You will also get insight about history of the monuments but also about the prehistory that carved the landscape, the oceanographic and atmospheric features that you'll encounter.

All expeditions are genuine scientific surveys, our clients are the dolphins and you are our supporters. Our aim is to find dolphins and not taking guests on a boat trip. So we might have to change your original plans to fit the sea conditions. If you have a specific route or boat type in mind let us know, we are flexible!
