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'll board the boat for your dolphin-watching adventure.

Begin by cruising down the River Tagus toward the Atlantic Ocean. The boat will sail under the iconic 25 April Bridge and pass by some of Belém's most emblematic monuments, offering views of Lisbon's riverside sights. As you sail out to sea, you'll also see the Bugio Lighthouse and the rugged coastline of Portugal.

While cruising, you'll start searching for dolphins, which often swim, play, and jump out of the water in pods. If you spot one, there will likely be more nearby.

If you're fortunate, you may also spot other marine life, such as sharks, jellyfish, and sea turtles as they approach the boat and play in the waves.

At the end of this experience, you'll return to Santo Amaro Dock after a total of 3 hours.

Important information

Dolphins are common in this area of Portugal but as they live freely and are unpredictable, we cannot guarantee their sighting on your trip.
