About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- katiemH5384TE0 contributionsYou must do this trip!We had the most amazing trip! The guides are friendly, knowledgeable and spoke English, French and Portuguese. We saw not only the local dolphin pods but also other ocean dolphins as well as caves, beaches and the beautiful coastline. At one point the dolphins swam right up to us and under boat-breathtaking! We talked about the trip for the rest of the day, but the experience will stay with us forever. Thank you so much!Written 1 September 2024
- Kathryn A0 contributionsTight seatingA delightful tour enjoying the dolphins and the coastline around Setubal. The watercraft har a double row of saddle type seats which were quite snug and can be uncomfortable if you are unaccustomed to sitting in one tight spot for three hours. We signed up for a tour in English, which devolved into a guide who talked with French and English speakers; the main guide spoke only Portuguese. Absolutely beautiful caves and rock formations along the coast! Lots of dolphins entertained us.!Written 20 August 2024
- nicolinac9990 contributionsAmazingWonderful! Better than expected! We saw many dolphins, stopped for a swim and some sightseeing. Boat and capten was great.Written 4 August 2024
- T2824FHyulias0 contributionsAmazing Dolphin Watching Tour!I recently went on a dolphin watching tour, and it was incredible! We saw lots of dolphins, and the experience was truly magical. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and provided excellent service. Seeing dolphins up close in their natural habitat was unforgettable. Highly recommend this tour for an amazing marine adventure. Five stars!Written 4 August 2024
- florianad6400 contributionsVery good experience!!!We saw many dolphins, a couple a caves and had a swim in a stunninh beach in Setubal. Highly recommended. The staff was helpful and very welcomingWritten 29 July 2024
- rhiannonh7430 contributionsOnce in a lifetime!An amazing experience. We loved the speedy boat ride and were lucky to find a pod of dolphins quickly. The crew were respectful of the dolphins space throughout and let them come to the boat. After finding dolphins, we had a lovely tour of the coastline and caves and even managed to have a swim at one of the beaches. On the way back we found the 'cake boat' and had a donut back on the way to shore. Fantastic value for money, would highly recommend.Written 29 July 2024
- antoniopX5888GA0 contributionsTrip to discover the surroundings of SetúbalThe trip lasts around 3 hours. First, we visit the dolphins and then the trip along the beaches and other points of interest. Longitude's companions are very pleasant, attentive to the staff at all times, giving explanations above all and answering questions from the public. Highly recommendedWritten 14 July 2024
- 980AmyG9800 contributionsDolphin spotting at Sebutol, Portugal.This trip was well worth the money. The boat was really cool with seats you sit astride which gave a feeling of being very secure. There was only space for around 16 people so it felt very exclusive. It’s a fast boat so a lot of fun as we headed out to where the dolphins were. We were able to manoeuvre very well, compared to the bigger boats out there. We saw 3 lots of dolphins in different areas, including some baby ones. We also were taken really close into shore to see the natural rock formations and caves. And some beautiful beaches. Our guides were very knowledgeable about the dolphins and the area, pointing out lots along the coast. Their English was really good too. It was too chilly to swim but we didn’t feel that detracted at all. Highly recommend especially for families. Life jackets were also provided for all.Written 8 June 2024

The guides are very kind and we had a fast trip on the water with lots of fun, especially for the kids! I can highly recommend. The Startingpoint is exactly as described by tripadvisor.
