Additional Information

Embarking from Lisbon, our primary objective is to spot dolphins! We set off in a swift Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) towards the vast Atlantic Ocean. The thrill of the hunt for these majestic creatures begins as soon as we glide under the 25th of April bridge and leave the Tagus Estuary behind. As we depart, you’ll catch a glimpse of the splendid monuments peppering the Belem neighborhood before the cityscape gives way to the open sea. From our comfortable and secure 8.5m RIB, you’ll have a front-row seat to the breathtaking Atlantic coastline. Our method for locating marine life replicates scientific techniques and you will play a crucial role in aiding our discovery. Learn about the various species of cetaceans and sea birds from our onboard Marine Biologist. Over the course of 3 hours, you’ll be part of the exhilarating quest to find sea creatures like sunfish, sharks, jellyfish, whales, and even sea turtles, all in close proximity to Lisbon. We strive to bring you closer to these fascinating animals. Join us on this natural tourism odyssey guided by our seasoned expert. We have the capacity to conduct the tour on two vessels.

  • Customers will keep seated on comfortable Jockey seats, but will be able stand up in the boat to enjoy the wildlife encountered.
  • Big boats tend to make people seasick, that is why we work in a fast and safe RIB of 8,5m in which you will feel the ocean breeze.
  • If you still think you might get seasick, make sure you avoid having breakfast based on milk and iogurts. Eat properly and include bread and an apple which avoid getting seasick. (we also have pills if necessary).
  • Not suitable for babies under 5 years
  • SeaEO Tours has been certified by the Portuguese Tourism bureau with the Clean & Safe stamp. We are commited in preventing the Covid-19 outbreak, therefore we will desinfect the boats after each tour, wear face masks, desinfect all passenger’s hands and avoid social contact. Safety First!

Uma experiência incrível!!! - It was an incredible experience! It was a morning full of excitement for our children and for us! The staff Bart and Si are very friendly and fun… and Sara, biologist, explains a lot of interesting things about sea life! We saw lots of dolphins, they swam alongside our boat, we'll never forget it! And we saw lots of birds of various species... thank you SeaOtours, it was amazing! We'll definitely be back!

Great experience!! Would do it again. - The boat was the perfect size to get out to the open water quickly and comfortably. We searched a bit then hit the jack pot!! Two big pods were showing off. They told us about them and other sea life which was appreciated then some of the history while we made our way back to port. Highly recommend.

Memorable experience - Absolutely amazing! Sara and Bart were wonderful and provided us with great information. Sara spent so much time with my son explaining every facet of the sea and boat. We saw lots of Dolphins which were incredible and even the first shark of the season - possibly a hammerhead - named Max! Thank you for a magical experience, Max and I had the BEST time.
