THE ALGARVE · DOLPHIN WATCHING TOURS IN LAGOS
Every week on this coast has one free day too few. These 8 dolphin watching tours in Lagos justify the slot, priced and timed so you can decide in minutes and get back to the beach.
2.5-hour Lagos speedboat tour with a marine biologist: wild dolphin watching and Benagil Cave in one run on Hurricane.
“It’s a fantastic experience, we did see dolphins, which was great and the trip to the caves was fantastic. The captains skills in manoeuvring in and out of the caves added to the experience. Would definitely recommend.”
90-minute dolphin watching from Lagos Marina with marine biologists. Small boats, respectful distances, and wild Atlantic encounters.
“We saw around 100 dolphins! Amazing :) We were only with 4 people on the boat, so it was really a private trip for us. The trip in itself was already quite exciting due to the high speed of the boat.”
Sail from Lagos in a small RIB to search for common and bottlenose dolphins with marine biologists, live onboard commentary, great views.
“Nice but we didn’t like the beginning as it felt like we were hunting the dolphins. 3-4 boats, all going for the dolphin group. Although, it’s very nice to see these creatures in their environments, the guides were great and the explanations we had were good. We had a nice moment. We also appreciate going to Ponta de Piedade on our way back. It’s a “to do” thing, once :)”

Catamaran dolphin and whale watching from Marina de Lagos, Portugal. Wheelchair-friendly, live skipper commentary, bow viewing, 90 minutes.
“Brilliant service. Steve was a fantastic guide and having his puppy on board as a dolphin spotter was a lovely addition. After about half an hour heading away from land we quickly find a group of around 20 dolphins. On the way back to land they also have us a tour of the caves and coastline too.”
See wild dolphins from a comfy Lagos catamaran, cruise Ponta da Piedade cliffs and caves, then swim in the Algarve on a 3.5-hour tour.
“Great trip, really amazing team and we had about 45 minutes watching and following the majestic dolphins. Our two grandchildren 5&7 loved it! The water slide in the bay towards the end was also a good giggle. Thank you so much.”
Marine biologist guided Lagos boat trip for dolphin watching and a photo stop at Algar de Benagil, Portugal, about 2.5 hours.
“I honestly can say that I don't think that anything could have been done better. Bom dia was extremely organized and they made sure that everyone had a jacket because it was going to be cold out on the water. If people didn't have their own, they were given a red windbreaker. The crew was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. We were really lucky as there was no shortage of dolphins to see, and the marine biologist answered all the questions that we had. I would highly recommend doing the combination dolphin and cave tour instead of just booking the caves. The whole trip was the perfect way to experience the…”
Ride a RIB off Lagos in search of dolphins and whales, guided to the best spots near the Algarve, on a 1.5-hour ocean cruise.
“Super team! Waited until we saw the dolphins - although the time was running out! The speedboat ride was a little scary - but the dolphins made up for it!”
Pick a coastline, pick a kind of day, and see what it costs.
