Dolphin and whale watching

Dolphin and whale watching

One for the bucket list - the sight of a whale bursting through the ocean's surface will stay with you forever. Feel the water spray, hear the loud splash. Whale and dolphin watching tours are a must-do in Madeira. Finish off with a dip below the Cabo Girao cliffs - don't forget your cossie.
