Hit the waters near Cabo Girão in search of dolphins and whales on a 3-hour cruise trip from Funchal!

Set sail from the marina in Funchal, where you will board the yacht. Search for dolphins, whales, and sea turtles up to 3 miles from the coast. With some luck, you will see lots of native wildlife in their natural environment!

As you keep an eye out for local wildlife, take a dip in the water Cabo Girão and use the snorkel provided, or relax with a drink in your hand before your sailboat docks back at the Funchal Marina.
