Private Whale Watching with SpeedBoat

Private Charter Whale Watching

Looking for a more personal and exclusive experience on the water? This private 2-hour speed boat tour is perfect for families, couples, or small groups wanting to explore Madeira’s stunning coastline at their own pace—with the added possibility of swimming with wild dolphins.

With the boat reserved just for your group (up to 12 people), you’ll enjoy a flexible itinerary, personalized attention from the crew, and the chance to get closer to marine life in comfort and privacy.
