Dolphins show up often enough to be a fair hope rather than a promise, and the crew treats them as a bonus, not the product. **Best overall:** A 2.5 hour sail from Benalmadena with water, beer, white wine and cava poured on board at €60 per person, dolphins a regular bonus: 4.71 from 442 reviews. Trade-off: Dolphins likely, never promised.
