    A delightful tour enjoying the dolphins and the coastline around Setubal. The watercraft har a double row of saddle type seats which were quite snug and can be uncomfortable if you are unaccustomed to sitting in one tight spot for three hours. We signed up for a tour in English, which devolved into a guide who talked with French and English speakers; the main guide spoke only Portuguese. Absolutely beautiful caves and rock formations along the coast! Lots of dolphins entertained us.!

    An amazing experience. We loved the speedy boat ride and were lucky to find a pod of dolphins quickly. The crew were respectful of the dolphins space throughout and let them come to the boat. After finding dolphins, we had a lovely tour of the coastline and caves and even managed to have a swim at one of the beaches. On the way back we found the 'cake boat' and had a donut back on the way to shore. Fantastic value for money, would highly recommend.
