Dolphin Watching Cruise

Discover the incredible wildlife that lives off the coast of Portugal: enjoy this unforgettable dolphin-watching boat trip from Lisbon!

Dolphin Watching Cruise Itinerary

After meeting at the scheduled time at Santo Amaro Docks in Lisbon, you will board the boat for your dolphin-watching adventure.

The trip begins with a cruise down the River Tagus towards the Atlantic Ocean. The boat will sail under the 25 April Bridge and pass notable monuments in Belém, providing views of Lisbon's riverside attractions. As you head to sea, you will also see the Bugio Lighthouse and experience the rugged coastline of Portugal.

Once at sea, you will start looking for dolphins. These marine mammals often swim, play, and jump out of the water in pods, so spotting one could mean seeing a group together.

If fortunate, besides dolphins, you may also glimpse other species such as sharks, jellyfish, and sea turtles!

The experience concludes with a return to Santo Amaro Dock after a total duration of 3 hours.

Important information

Dolphins are common in this area of Portugal. However, as they are wild and unpredictable, sightings cannot be guaranteed during your trip.
