Dolphin Safari Tour

We took a Dolphin Safari Tour from the Vilamoura marina on a rib boat. Our friend Linda works for the tour company we booked with. It was a blast! Matt finished his exam and was ready for some excitement before heading back to work.

This is a rather large sail boat in the marina. Leaving the marina we had a few different views than we normally get on our walks, it was fun to see.

We SAW DOLPHINS!!! They don't guarantee sitings but we found a family feeding so we spent about 10 minutes cruising with them. They were swimming all around our boat. It was fantastic! I did not get any snap shots of them but I will try and upload some video we got.

On the return trip we cruised the coastline and went to see the rock caves. It was beautiful. Now we have the boat bug pretty bad. There are some great places on the coast that you can cruise to.

One of the many beaches in the Algarve. Some are only accessible by water.

The mansion on the cliffs in the middle of the picture is worth 4 million euro, Wow and what a view.
Our tour amigos.
We had a fun afternoon, will do it again.
