Overview
All year round we operate whale and dolphin-watching tours. In the Ocean, there is always something to see, especially because we do have resident cetacean species in Madeira such as Sperm whales, Bottlenose dolphins, and Common dolphins. The best season to spot some of the biggest whales in the world is Spring (March - Dec) when whales are migrating and passing by Madeiran waters. You will be able to see fin whales, blue whales, and orcas.
