3.Wildlife and Dolphin-Watching Speedboat Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 41 reviews · 2.5 hours · from $58Best value

2.5-hour Faro dolphin-watching speedboat through Ria Formosa, guided by a marine biologist, with a 90% chance to spot dolphins.

“Lorsqu'on a pu voir un groupe d'adultes accompagner un bébé dauphin j'ai été très émue, c'était vraiment une expérience exceptionnelle et inoubliable. On aurait dit que les dauphins se donnaient en spectacle en nageant ensemble de façon synchronisée et en sautant hors de l'eau à la verticale ou à l'horizontale. Vraiment je recommande cette activité à tous les amoureux de la faune.”
