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 Santo Amaro Docks in Lisbon, you'll board your boat and embark on your dolphin-watching adventure. Begin by cruising down the River Tagus towards the Atlantic Ocean, sailing under the 25 April Bridge and passing by Belém's monuments, while enjoying views of Lisbon's riverside. As you head to sea, you will see the Bugio Lighthouse and the rugged coastline of Portugal.

While cruising out to the ocean, you will search for dolphins swimming, playing, and jumping. Dolphins usually travel in pods, so if you spot one, expect to see more!

If conditions allow, you may also see other species such as sharks, jellyfish, and sea turtles as they approach the boat and interact with the waves.

After a total of 3 hours, you will return to Santo Amaro Dock.

Important information

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