Seeing dolphins in their natural habitat is one of life's special experiences. Observe these fascinating and friendly creatures on this cruise down Portugal's sunny, south coast. Welcomed aboard by the crew, you'll set sail from Portimao harbour. Passing caves, coves and beaches, your knowledgeable skipper knows just where to head. Both bottlenose and common dolphins call this place home and they just love to show off. A captivating Algarve experience.
