Well, not sure I've been on a catamaran before... Not for the faint hearted or those prone to sea sickness! Pleasant staff... 10 mins swim stop... Not much else to see or do unless you find Whales or Dolphins.. Our trip couldn't find any till the return journey... Only Dolphins not Whales, but they were amazing to see! Bring binoculars if you can...

Nice trip, no problem with 1.5years baby, you can take buggy with you. You can buy drinks, swim in the ocean and most important see dolphins

Plenty of space on this boat, with drinks and snacks available. Got to see the sunset multiple times because of how they moved the boat. Chilly but fun opportunity to swim in the ocean. Didn't see any sea creatures, which means we could have gone again if we wanted.

We took this trip today the first 45 minutes of the trip were good saw a pod of pilot whales and we're given a knowledgeable description. However the weather then turned foul heavy rain and a rough sea. Which resulted in all the passengers getting soaked to the skin. The boat did have plastic roll down windows. But apart from trying to dry the seats down the crew did little to improve the passenger experience. If the roll down windows had been closed there would have afforded at least a measure of protection from the applying weather .most of the passengers were feeling seasick by this point as the cruise continued finally arriving back in harbour to the relief of many

There were 2 katamarans going on that day due to many tourists, however the second one arived with delay, so even if we were well on time for check-in and on-boarding 30min before departure, the catamaran we were assigned to departed with 15min delay (but returned back as planned). The catamaran is slow, so arrived on the "watching" place quite late, when the first one was already departing for promised swimming. We stayed at place for only 2min saw few dolphins in the far and then returned back to Funchal directly (no swimming). Expected more... Next time would pay more for the quick boat, catamaran chosen because of the kids...

Missed our check-in due to an unplanned trip to the ER, they called me and graciously rebooked us for a later trip. Awesome customer support!

A truly amazing experience and we were very fortunate to see large numbers of Atlantic Spotted Dolphins early on in the boat trip. Due to rules and regulations regarding the protection of these species, one is allowed to stay for 10 minutes but actually this is ample time to enjoy watching the dolphins and get plenty of photos. Although this was a large group, there was ample space to sit and get excellent views. There is a well stocked bar on board with drinks and snacks; these are also very reasonably priced, €6 for 2 bottles of water and a Coke Zero. The crew were extremely friendly and knowledgable. We stopped off for those who wanted a dip in the sea and there was plenty of information on Madeira and it’s coastline as we continued the trip. Would highly recommend this company and will definitely be a highlight of our holiday here. Pack plenty of sunscreen!

Nice trip and saw lots of dolphins but what they don’t tell you is they are only allowed to follow the dolphins for ten minutes by law so they have to move away from them after that time then they didn’t seem interested in looking for any more .There was a staff member on top deck with binoculars and walkie-talkie searching until we found the first dolphins but after that we never saw him for the rest of the trip! Then you get taken to a cliff face where the boat is moored up for ten mins to allow you to swim then they take you back to the port.Bu the time you get ready to swim it’s time to get back on the boat so I would advise being ready to swim before they stop the boat! The catamaran was nice and clean with friendly staff and knowledgeable commentator about the dolphin species we saw etc. with a decent stocked bar and was a nice boat ride out. Good trip for kids I’d say.

Well worth the price for a three hour sail! Seeing dolphins and whales is unpredictable and we didn’t happen to see any, but go for the beauty! The sunset and the view of Madeira! Highly recommend. Staff was friendly. Onboard drinks yummy.

It was very dissapointing. We expected a search for whales and dolphins. We saw dolphins in the first 20 minutes and left after 10 minutes. Thats it. If you like making a boattour, drink beer/ coacktails, see dolphins for 10 minutes and swim for ten minutes… Then this is for you. If you want a whale/dolphin tour, book something else.

After a 10 minute dolphin stop. Crew relaxed and the boat continued to let the people swim for 10 minutes. The promised wildlife was found. But the sign should say 3-hour bout tour with a 99% chance to spot some wildlife for 10 minutes

Lovely trip! Snacks on board - definitely recommend taking something to throw over yourself when it gets windy. The sunset tour does look out for marine mammals - we saw three fin whales at sunset! Absolutely gorgeous. Because of the cloudiness of the weather the sunset did get covered at the very end but this didn’t spoil the magical trip. Very lucky to have seen what we did. There was a monk seal so we could not swim but that was okay I didn’t want to anyway with it being a bit chilly. This was rare though to see one so far from its shore. The crew was knowledgeable and respected the sea animals. Place was easy to find and I gave my name from online and it was found effortlessly. Very good trip and good company to go with. We’d already booked the dolphin / whale watching tour but tbf if you’re lucky this is 2 for the price of one!

Very fun and interesting experience, we went yesterday and saw bottleneck dolphins without 15 minutes of departing. Also got to swim in the sea further up the shore The young lady guiding us had some information about different breeds of whales and dolphins living in the area - and the boat even stopped on the way back to collect some floating plastic! Very impressed

It was a nice trip, do bring a coat of something warm as advised by the booking guys as it got quite chilly once the sun went. We sat on the rope netting at the front the entire time, but people got up and left as they were cold. The kids enjoyed jumping in the sea off the boat and we did manage to see some dolphins. The trip was a bit boring before the swimming but improved after that. I would recommend it though. The scenery of Madeira from the sea is stunning.

Nice 3 hour round trip. Plenty of room on deck (there are plenty of seats and some netting at the front if you want to sunbathe). Saw a few dolphins briefly and had a 15 minute stop below the Cabo Girao cliffs near the shore so you can swim in the sea if you wish. Reasonably priced drinks at the bar.
