South Madeira Boat Ride

  • 21 reviews | 214 travellers
    The walk was very pleasant, with impressive views and a great time. The downside is that we couldn't see any whales or dolphins, maybe that's why the journey was a bit long for us. Even so, we really enjoyed the walk and the bath in front of the cliffs. In addition, highlight the attention and friendliness of the staff on board.

South Madeira Boat Ride

Our maritime adventure will start at the port of Funchal, where we'll board a boat ready to sail the Atlantic.

During the cruise, you'll get the chance to see the dolphins that inhabit this area of the island. The boat will sail close to these friendly mammals so you can admire them jumping out of the water. 

You may even see some whales! Some of the species that live in the area are the blue whale, the sperm whale and the short-finned pilot whale!

Throughout the boat trip, you'll also enjoy spectacular views of the rugged landscape of Madeira. To finish on a high note we'll sail past the foot of one of the highest cliffs in Europe: Cabo Girão!

Important Information

The animals we see on the cruise depend on the weather conditions.
