Traveler Reviews
Leider nur einen Delfin kurz gesehen. Aber die Crew hat sich grosse Mühe gegeben. Zum Ausgleich haben wir noch die Grotten an der Küste besucht. War trotzdem schön.

Wow! What a wonderful experience. To get this close to dolphins in their natural habitat was incredible. So happy to had booked with Bolha Tours as the boat was comfortable and it was clear they really respected the animals as well.
Even if we had a bit or a foggy day, the experience was something that we will remember for a long time. I would highly recommend!

The tour office was easy to find. Pedro (owner) welcomed us very friendly at his tour office and was patient (with young kids it always takes a bit longer). The boat is very nice. Life jackets for kids (mandatory ??) and for adults available, same like snorkeling gear for adults and kids (ours are 5.5 &8).
After 25 min Pedro and his captain found the ‘common’ dolphins which was a breathtaking experience for us and the kids! I think the dolphins stayed one hour with us. The greatest thing is that Pedro shows a lot of respect for the Dolphins. They doesn’t harasses the dolphins and he shares nice information about these wonderful creatures.
We also went snorkeling and we ‘won the jackpot’ because something really rare happened: we saw a baby minke whale!!! And my husband could even see it underneath the water for a split second. Minke whales are seen just once/ twice a year in that area and a baby was never seen before from this close.
Pedro also made a lot of pictures from us to m

Nous avons passé 3h top. Pedro est très sympa, il nous a emmené au large découvrir les dauphins et là. Un émerveillement, de belles rencontres avec les dauphins. Un petit tour vers les grottes, possibilité de baignade et un petit Moscatel pour se détente. Je ne peux que recommander cette excursion. Merci Pedro ??
