Experience the Best Whale and Dolphin Watching Tour in Madeira Island

Embarking on a whale and dolphin watching tour in Madeira is one of the top activities for visitors. This journey not only showcases the stunning coastline but also offers an unforgettable wildlife experience.

The adventure begins at the meeting point inside Galerias São Lourenço in Funchal. Here, you will receive a briefing about the company, safety measures, and an introduction to the various species you might observe. Following the briefing, you’ll head to the harbor where a comfortable catamaran awaits to start your journey.

Our team of expert lookouts is stationed at various points around the island to track the movement of dolphins, ensuring nearly a 100% chance of sightings. While dolphins are almost guaranteed, the chances of seeing whales, monk seals, and turtles are also very high.
