Our success rate is very high (about 95% of our tours) as the dolphin population lives in Setubal Bay permanently. Anyway, there are a few days when dolphins are not seen by any vessel.

If your tour is one of the rare days when dolphin spotting is not possible, you will receive a free voucher to reschedule a new date. Dolphin Bay guarantees in this way that by purchasing a ticket you will definitely see dolphins.

Swimming with wild dolphins, in mainland Portugal, is not allowed by law. You can do it on the islands of the Azores and Madeira where it is permitted to swim with dolphins respecting some rules.

Children between 4 and 12 years old benefit from a reduced price of 15 €.

We have all the conditions and security on board to receive babies, you can even get your baby stroller on board. Up to 3 years old the ticket is free.
