Speed & jet boat tours

Hop aboard for a journey to spot dolphins in their natural habitat. Enjoy a welcome drink of Moscatel de Setúbal, as a great way to kick start your tour, and then head out to see the dolphins. After spotting the dolphins, you will receive an explanation in Portuguese and English. Then, make a short stop to swim and hear some explanations about the main interest points. Passing by Arrábida Mountain will also offer completely different sights of the region. The catamaran has two underwater rooms that can be used to see the bottom of the sea or you may even see a dolphin from them.

Setúbal Bay, one of the most beautiful bays in the world, is home to a community of bottlenose dolphins that live here all year round in these crystal-clear, calm waters. In addition to the dolphins, there are beaches and small islands with fine white sand. Join this guided boat tour and go in search of these dolphins in their natural habitat. Travel on a modern speedboat and enjoy views of the beautiful surrounding landscape and a relaxing moment in a region rich in historical and natural heritage.

Firstly, we will look for and meet the Sado bottlenose dolphins to observe and interpret their behaviors (30 minutes is the time allowed by law to watch dolphins). Later we will visit all the bays of Arrábida, including the beaches of Galapos, Galapinhos, Portinho da Arrábida, Alpertuche, and the Santa Margarida cave and Anixa island, etc. We will also take a closer look at some monuments such as the Fort of Outão, the Fort of Santa Maria, and the Convent of Arrábida. By sailing a little faster, we look for dolphins in many more places (we have a success rate that stands out: 99.9%). The shallow depth of the boats allows us to enter the bays of Arrábida and have an incomparably closer and more complete experience. Depending on the number of reservations, we will do the tour on a larger or smaller boat. It's so rare that we don't see dolphins, that if this happens, we offer you free vouchers to repeat this experience whenever you want. We don't like microphones. On board, there will always be a guide, "live and in person", who will tell you some stories and curiosities about dolphins and the various emblematic places that we will visit in the Arrábida Natural Park. The speed and the music onboard make the perfect match for a unique and fun sailing experience.

However, so much beauty cannot make us forget the main objective of our trip: watching dolphins in their natural habitat.

As you approach the dolphins, watch as they playfully swim alongside the boat and smile at their antics before returning to Setúbal. We will observe bottlenose dolphins, which have a colony in the Sado river, or common dolphins normally found in the open sea. Dolphins are wild animals and are not always found in the same place. Our company can find them on around 99% of boat trips. If you find yourself in the remaining 1%, you will be entitled to a free voucher to repeat the experience. Our skippers are highly qualified people in navigation and maritime safety. Our company is also a navigation school. Your safety is a priority for us. The boat is virtually unsinkable and is equipped with state-of-the-art life rafts as well as radio communications. It is an open boat that allows you to see dolphins from a very short distance. It is also a very fast boat as dolphins are very fast animals. In winter, be equipped for the cold even if it seems hot on land. The temperature at sea can drop a lot and the trip can be humid due to the spray. Are you ready for this marine adventure? Feel the power of wild nature, the silence of the ocean and appreciate its magic! Children will love the dolphins. It's a memorable experience.
