    🐬I really recommand this tour! 🐬 The guides were 2 very friendly sea biologists that really put alot of effort into finding the animals. They made sure not to stress out the animals and gave us enough time to see and interact with the dolphins. 🛥The boat was incredibly smooth and it was not bumpy at all. While we returned back to the marina, the guides gave us explanations about the animals and answered our questions.📒 This is the only proper way to experience these kind of animals in their natural habitat in my opinion. They dont feed or track the animals. Make sure to wear at least a hoody and preferably a wind breaker, because it can get a bit cold.🌬 10/10 would do it again, worth the money!

    Had an amazing time with sea life. Very knowledgeable crew, excellent boat which made viewing very easy. As we found the dolphins so quickly and only allowed to stay with them for a maximum of 30 minutes we took the long way back to check out the cliffs which was brilliant.

    This was Amazing, one of my most memorableexperiences! We saw countless doplphins, which were very active ("showing off!"?!), and coming right to us...🐬🐬! The guide was an expert, so knowledgeable, explaining dolphin behavior and the dolphin life. This is a Must!! I took incredible video's that I will keep always😊

    Great experience! we saw a bunch of common dolphins & they were super playful. The crew was very nice and funny and they told us a bit about the dolphins & how they make sure that the‘re feeling good that we‘re waching them. on the way back the crew stopped since we saw another species of dolphins and one of them was super courious and came to our boat. it was an amazing trip - thank you sealife

    Well organised and flexible company. The pretty lady in the office helped me change my booking with ease. We found the dolphins after 28km out, the crew try really hard to make it happen.

    Two friendly crewman navigating our boat which was way better than the other competitors. Spoke English very well and we were fortunate enough to see dolphins for a good 35-40 minutes. Really recommend, very happy and reasonably priced. Thanks again!

    Amazing! Friendly and well-informed staff, clearly respecting the animals. We saw a large group of dolphins, including babies. The guides supplied fun facts. The boat was comfortable and allowed us to walk around. When it was time to go back, they showed us some cliffs and beaches instead of going straight to the harbor. A fun extra bonus and a beautiful way to end the trip!

    We had fantastic experiences with this professional team! Excellent professionals,excellent people,excellent guided tour! We wanted to go on the trip twice because it was so amazing to see these marine mammals in their own environment. Both times were 100% hits,and two different kinds of dolphins were observed! I recommend them to everyone! 10/10

    Thank you for the amazing experience of seeing dolphins in their natural habitat. The guides were very cautious for the dolphins showing any kind of stress because of our presence. We had the feeling that this was a pretty sustainable way to visit those amazing sea mammals.

    We went in mid October sunny imparts, slightly choppy day. We had a fabulous experience. The guide & skipper were experienced, knowledgeable & very pleasant. The catamaran boat seemed to allow the dolphins around us & we could follow them safely. It was a magical experience seeing a bottleneck pod so close up; a mother & baby swimming alongside our boat. The boat goes fast once out of the river area & you can get splashed, a hoody or a towel is needed to keep warmer. Wonderful exhilarating time seeing such majestic animals in the wild. We recommend these for seeing the dolphins & closer up than some other tours. Thank you

    we went on a trip with Sea Life in early July 2023. We were lucky to see Dolphins in close proximity. Our 6 and 8 year old enjoyed the trip which also took in the rocky coastline on the return leg. The knowledge and enthusiasm of the crew added greatly to the experience. [post edited as the date was wrong!]

    Absolutely amazing experience with this tour, a dream came through and they extended the tour to let us enjoy a bit longer! Totally recommendation also because it’s protecting the dolphins and respecting their habitat!

    We had a great experience going out to watch dolphines with Sealife. We really liked that the tour is guided by marine biologists who seem to be very aware of making sure that both their visitors and the dolphines are safe during this trip. We went out a bit further than normal and had luck finiding a bigger group of around 30 dolphines and they even had two younger ones with them. One of the guides explained the dolphines' behavior and was open to any questions. The trip took about 90 min and was definitly worth the price of €40 per person. We are considering doing this trip again when visiting Lagos somewhere in the future.

    A few years ago I had the opportunity to go on a dolphin and orca tour with a Sealifelagos and I was really impressed with the tour guide. It means a lot to me that there are marine biologists among the staff, who take care not just from turistic side but also about the dolphins, orcas and their well-being. The respect for animals that they have it is on a high level and that is something I really love it! Really all my recommendations to choose Sealifelagos, as they go out of their way to create an unforgettable experience. This year, precisely because of the good experience with them, I chose to go again and we saw just dolphins. It was a huge group of dolphins. It was fantastic and magical! Thanks to the Sealifelagos team for doing what they do in such a unique way. They are brilliant!!! Here are some photos from both trips :)

    First thing first we saw dolphins. Thanks to the crew captain and marine biologist/ guide.

    Unforgettable experience! We were very lucky to see even two different dolphin groups, some of them also had babies. Our guide was great and the boat is more comfortable and stable than those from other companies. Highly recommended!

    This was a horrible experience. It was a severely bumpy ride, the boat was bouncing up and down about 5- 7 feet consistently and that mixed with the speed it was travelling at was really scary. Every wave we hit we were slammed down. To add to this the life raft box became untied and my boyfriend spent the first 20/30minutes holding down this really heavy box AND holding himself up with one hand. It was extremely difficult to get the attention of the guide because the boat was going so fast and hitting waves that you could not take your hand off the handle bar to flag him down. The box kept hitting off my hand which now is swollen with a bump. Although this isn’t a serious physical injury if my boyfriend didn’t hold the box down it would have hit one us in the face ( it was already bouncing around). Although I understand the boat must go fast to find the dolphins I feel sea conditions were too bad to be out in and obviously the life raft box being loose was immensely dangerous. Please note we booked through SeaLife, went to the SeaLife desk at the Marina and got our receipt/ticket with SeaLife logo on the top. They then bought us over to another group who were at the Seafaris tour operator ticket office and gave us Seafaris red jackets so I think they pushed us onto another tour operator. All we wanted was to see a few dolphins!!

    Amazing tour, guide was very calm, did not speak anything about the dolphins. But we saw a lot.

    We arrived and there was a delay as the main boat was broken so we waited for a spare boat. That should have been the first warning. When the spare boat arrived we went out and went fast into rough waves, the life raft box detached and started bouncing around and was hitting me and my girlfriend and I have cuts on my ankle and she has on her hand from it, after it was tied back down we hit the waves hard again, I really hurt my back due to the speed we were hitting the waves. Im not an OAP or anything, but I feel crippled now after that. I’m writing this 9 hours later still in pain anytime I move.. for the whole journey I was just waiting for it to be over 😂 top 10 worst days of my life 😬 if you paid me 1000 euro I would not do it again
