    Itinerary

    About this tour, from the operator

    Visit our coast in a semi-rigid boat starting from Albufeira. Take a cruise between Albufeira and Alfanzina and see dolphins in their natural habitat. Talk to our crew for fun facts about dolphins and other species.

    Come and discover the Algarve in a new way!

    Dolphin sightings are not guaranteed at 100%, as they are wild animals in their natural habitat and their behavior cannot be controlled. Therefore, if no dolphins are spotted during the tour, Oceaneye does not issue a refund for the ticket.
