Fantastic program, we saw so many dolphins I cannot even count. The crew was really kind and informative, they are all gentlemen. We loved the experience. For the cable car we waited for around 30-40 minutes.

Full description

Make the most of your time in Gibraltar with the rock’s top 2 attractions. Enjoy a dolphin watching cruise and fast track priority entry to the Gibraltar Cable Car. Cruise around the Bay of Gibraltar on our yellow catamaran looking for pods of wild dolphins with a marine guide then fly to the top of the Rock of Gibraltar in a panoramic cable car.

Depart from Marina Bay in Ocean Village with guides that provide live commentary and a marine expert that describes everything you encounter. Learn about dolphins and how you can help to protect these special creatures.
Look for pods of 40 to 500 dolphins that are wild and free in their natural habitat. Watch on as common, striped or bottlenose dolphins swim up to the boat. See behavior like spectacular leaps and splashes directly at your feet. Admire breathtaking views of both the African and European coastline and the legendary Pillars of Hercules.

Before or after your dolphin adventure, experience one of Gibraltar's highlights as you ride to the top of the rock by cable car. Stop at the best location to spot the mischievous Barbary apes. A pack of wild apes, the famous Barbary macaques are sure to captivate you with their antics.

At the top relax by purchasing a beverage and light snack while enjoying the spectacular vistas. The Top of the Rock Souvenir Shop is also packed with unique gifts that are unavailable in town. From the terraces of the top station, gaze over the town below, look north towards the Sierra Nevada over the Costa del Sol and east over the blue Mediterranean Sea.
Take in the views south across the Strait of Gibraltar to the Rif Mountains of North Africa. You’ll have views of 2 continents, 3 countries, and the meeting point of 2 great bodies of water.

The Dolphin Adventure is very enjoyable. We saw a lot of dolphins, very close! 5 stars, really. The cable car is very costly and you have to buy also Gibraltar Natural Reserve ticket which is also expensive. But the monkeys and the cave worth it.
