An enchantment - We had one of our best moments of the summer with Marta and Chris. We saw several dolphins for two hours and even a whale. Marta gave us passionate explanations and Chris the captain sailed with absolute respect for the environment and dolphins. Thank you Marta and Chris!

Great! - We went dolphin watching. The experience was crazy! The information given by Marta and Francisco was very interesting, we learned a lot, while contemplating groups of dolphins. Observation is not at the expense of animals but respects their environment. That was great, thank you again!

Magical dolphin watching trip - We had the most amazing trip with our teens & good friends. We saw lots of common dolphins as soon as we reached the deep waters which was magical. Our hosts were really friendly & answered all our questions, giving us insights into the dolphin species & their habits. After a great session watching dolphins in a few areas they took us to the most stunning beach where we sailed inside a cave & then they let down the anchor & we were able to swim in crystal waters. It was magical. Afterwards they surprised us with a delicious piece of Sesimbran cake & a little dessert wine which was just what was needed after such a refreshing dip. We would highly recommend this trip. We all had the most wonderful time & would go again in a heartbeat. Thank you for making it so special :-) we hope to be back soon.

Visit of proximity to dolphins - We had the opportunity to observe two groups of dolphins for quite a while and closely. The team respected the space of the dolphins, observation times and safety issues. Many interesting information was given about the habits of dolphins and about the characteristics of the Arrábida Natural Park. It was an excellent visit, educational and exciting. We would only recommend an improvement in the level of English.
