What to expect

This is our longest trip, combining our Wild Dolphin Watching route with a tour of the Ria Formosa's barrier islands in a single 5-hour outing from Portas do Mar Pier in Faro.

We run it as a locally and family owned operator under RNAAT licence 341/2017, citing a 95 percent dolphin sighting success rate across our trips.

Guests who want the islands without the dolphin search can instead choose our shorter Santa Maria Route, while this combined trip suits anyone who wants both in one day.

Meeting point

Portas do Mar Pier, 8000-250 Faro.
