7.Dolphin Watching and Benagil Cave Boat Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 4,226 reviews · 2.5 hours · from $35

Albufeira dolphin watching and Benagil cave cruise on a small RIB, led by a marine biologist, with a possible sea swim.

“We had an amazing time! What we appreciated most is the level of care from SeacreTours rescheduling our excursion because of the sea tumultuous conditions. Sindu, our experienced guide, made sure we were all comfortable at all levels. He was fun, entertaining and knowledgeable. Diogo, our skipper, operated the boat very safely and went above and beyond in search of dolphins far away from the coastline since other boats were too disturbing. We would recommend this activity to anyone looking for an incredible experience we will never forget for the good reasons.”

“This was a fantastic experience. We were incredibly lucky to see both a large pod of common dolphins playing around our boat and also amazingly a group of orcas with two babies. The guides and captain went out of their way to enable us to see the orcas and explained how rare it is to have that experience. Our marine guide was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable and was able to identify the orcas and tell us about them individually. The visit to the caves was also a great experience with the boat able to enter several of them. This trip was well worth the money.”
