Activity Details

During this two-hour cruise, we'll encounter whales and dolphins, protected species that swim peacefully in the waters that surround this small village in Eastern Madeira. Also, we'll tell you all about these amazing creatures as we search for them.

If we're lucky, we'll be able to spot up to 28 species of dolphins and whales during our speedboat ride. Impressive, isn't it?

Lastly, we'll head back to the starting point, ending the activity.
