We took the catamaran whale and dolphin watching and it was a great experience. We saw many varieties of dolphins and one type of whale. The crew were very good and responsive, and the naturalist did a great job talking about the characteristics of the whales. We took the afternoon boat and it was relatively rough on the ocean that day. Fair warning, many people were getting sick off the back of the boat, so be sure that you have good sea legs if you choose to go on a rough day.

Would very much recommend this trip. It was quite choppy when we went out, which left a few people feeling sea sick but despite that, we really enjoyed the trip. We saw 3 pods of dolphins and a sei whale and found there was enough space on the catamaran to move around (with care!) and find a good spot for observing whenever we encountered them. The trip offered good views of the island too.

Absolutely incredible experience!! We saw three different sperm whales, and two pods of dolphins (one bottlenose and one spotted) came right up to our boat and were jumping all around us!! Beyond the wonderful creatures, the boat ride itself was fun and we got to see the beautiful southern coast of Sao Miguel. Would highly recommend!
