It was so fun to feel the wind whipping through my hair and my face getting misted mystically. I loved hearing the creative stories and names of the beautiful caves. Thank you Joāo and Gonçalo for the tour. All the views were amazing.

It was a really nice boat trip. It is very impressive to experience the coast of Portugal with the multitude of caves, beaches and rock formations. The descriptions and information from the crew were helpful and to a good extent, thumbs up. We would do it like that again 😃

No racists here! We joined this tour in August. It was a perfect tour as staffs are friendly and helpful. They didn't discriminate people from any part of the world! Staff can speak English fluently. We took many nice pics during the tour as we are arranged to seat in the best position of the boat as per our request! The boat is super fast but safe! I strongly recommend this tour to Asian people !

Our marine biologist found the dolphins and even though the weather was not the best on the day we went, it was well worth the cold and wind. We were able to ask questions and have a good discussion while moving towards the area where the dolphins were.

Wonderful experience, we saw some big group of dolphins. Very enjoyable experience, good explanations and you always felt safe and not disturbing the dolphins. Can recommend.

Great dolphin tour of seafaris with Joāo and Sam!! The dolphins were far away from Lagos, but it was a unique experiance. A group of 100 dolphins having lunch. Amazing!!

We did one dolphin tour in the afternoon without luck so the wonderful lady ( I think Sofia was her name) rescheduled us again for early next morning. Sam and Bruno took us out and success! We saw a group of dolphins and could observe them a long time. We got many explanations about their behavior and how to protect them. Thank you for an awesome experience!

went down the pier where all the companies are waiting to sign you up, and stopped here. paula was manning the booth and was very easy to talk to, quick to smile. she described the packages/routes/prices, heard our comments and helped us settle on the one right for us. she did not try to upsell or pressure us in any way whatsoever (what a relief!). she even told us the best time of day to go (and why). i was dreading this part of the process, but paula actually made it quite enjoyable.the tour was great. though the route was pretty much the same as for the other companies (we saw their boats all along the way), our boat only had 6 people (incl the guide and driver), so we felt pretty good about our choice. saw beautiful stuff, loads of fun all 'round.

5 stars for a really good dolphin tour 🤩The tour was really fun. The weather was fine and for the first hour we only drove in one direction: out to sea 🌊🚤The trip on the fast boat alone was worth it 😁But then we discovered isolated small groups of dolphins of 2-4 animals. After a short time we counted around 25-30 animals that kept moving back and forth so that dolphins could be seen on all sides of the boat.The tour guides gave us plenty of time to film and take photos.After more than 100 minutes we went back.The tour was in English and the captain and guide did everything for a perfect trip 👍🏼🌊😎Thank you!

We went to see the Benagil Caves. The speed boat ride there and back was fun and the tour guides showed us the caves which were beautiful. However, they could explain the history of the caves better.

A great trip to benazil. Thrilling ride and the caves and grottoes were amazing. Many thanks to Henrique and Gonzalo.

Had a fantastic trip. We were lucky to see a large pod of dolphins including babies. Sam and Bruno where great guides.

The grotto tour was great. Gonçalo and Joe showed us the unique cliffs and caves and kept us in a good mood and always had a funny story about the formations and Lagos' past.

The caves were top of our list of places we wanted to see while visiting the Algarve. The tour exceeded our expectations by seeing so many caves on one trip, after seeing Benagil Cave, and so awesome that the “Tornado” boat was small enough to be able to enter tight areas Enrique and Eduardo were experts at navigating through tight spaces with other boats around. They were personable and knowledgeable about the area. Thank you for our best day in Lagos.

Very enthusiastic guides, explanations in English were good and clear.Great experience to take the speedboat across the water and discover the beautiful places.A day after our tour I saw these guides on another tour. They were moving to the music, which tells me that they are truly enthusiastic and passionate gentlemen.A truly great experience!

The tour to the Benagil Caves lasts approximately 2 hours. Other caves and beaches on the coast are also part of the tour. Since all the providers go out together, it is quite crowded there (other boats, paddlers, SuPs...), so I found the tour very touristy. You only have a short time to take a photo and then you go straight on so that the next 2-3 boats can go into the caves.My tip: It's better to take a tour of the Ponta da Piedade. There is less going on here and we liked it much better. We booked a tour with Lagosboattours with Pedro and found the tour much nicer than this one.

We recently went on a benagil caves boat trip with Seafaris and would highly recommend. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, giving us lots of insights into Lagos. The company also provided us with lightweight jackets which were very welcome on a windy morning!

Fantastic, very fast boat which was really quiet when we got to the dolphins, local guides and they really seemed to care and respect the animals. We where with the dolphins within 20mins stayed 30mins then went for a Coast tour.

The staff was friendly, and the boat didn't make me sick as much as I expected. I usually compare it to a banana boat, but it wasn't as bad as a banana boat.They gave us plenty of time to take pictures inside Benajil Cave, and the company tried to show us dolphins at the end of the tour, but we couldn't see them because they didn't come out to the sea.

Had a great time. Samwell was a great captain and Joe explained history and use of all the caves. We walked up and booked a one hour private tour. Thought it was worth it.

Wonderful experience on a boat. If you can’t get out to Benagil and kayak, or you are only going to do one activity in Lagos, this is a fun crew and a nice boat ride to see some of the wonderful coastal cliffs and caves.

Ed Kent

20:06 02 Feb 24

Dolphins, yep. We spent 15 minutes or so just floating and watching them play around the boat.Benagil Cave, yep. The captain maneuvered us into it and two other caves as well.Views of the coastline/cliffs, yep. All the way back.Friendly, professional & knowledgeable staff. Felt safe on the boat, but be sure to dress appropriately for the season you're going and being on an open speedboat on the ocean.The value for this trip is amazing!

Although not the perfect time to do such activity, the tour was good and the WhatsApp and feedback from the team was very quick. The boat was very quick hence high wind level: take a jacket with you or ask them they’ll definitely give you one with please.Why not 5 stars? A miscommunication perhaps but we thought that we’ve been told that the boat has coverage from sun and wind which was not the case.We were lucky to see some dolphins and visit the caves, the staff onboard and off board are top notch!

AMAZING EXPERIENCE! Went on the boat trip really not expecting to actually see dolphins but extremely happy to have witnessed such beautiful animals. Really informative leaders who know where in the ocean to find the dolphins. The dolphins came really close to the boat while gliding through the water. Just a fabulous time. The cliffs and caves were stunning too. Absolutely worth going on this trip. Thank you to all the crew members.

Olá e bem-vindos à Seafaris, a nossa empresa familiar, que celebra este ano o seu 25º aniversário.

Há alguns anos, visitámos o Algarve pela primeira vez. Apaixonámo-nos instantaneamente pelo seu encanto especial e decidimos passar duas semanas na histórica cidade de Lagos.

Devido ao nosso amor pelo mar, dirigimo-nos diretamente para a Marina, onde rapidamente avistámos o único e magnífico semi-rígido Tornado e embarcámos numa viagem para ver os golfinhos.

Foi uma experiência inesquecível e maravilhosa que nunca esqueceremos.

Alguns anos depois, a empresa Dolphin Seafaris foi colocada à venda – e decidimos comprá-la.

Todos os anos, a nossa equipa profissional leva dezenas de milhares de pessoas em segurança a observar a incrível vida marinha no seu habitat natural e para experienciar a deslumbrante costa algarvia com as suas formações rochosas espetaculares.

Esperamos que decida embarcar numa das nossas viagens!

Peter e Dorothy
