All Inclusive Whale and Dolphin Watching Luxury Tour:  https://getyourguide.tp.st/cGa3zYX9

You’ll usually board the VipDolphins catamaran at Funchal Marina for a roughly 2.5 to 3 hour whale and dolphin trip; the crew know local feeding areas so sightings are common but not guaranteed, and they give onboard commentary and binoculars. Dress in layers, bring a windproof jacket, sunscreen and motion sickness meds if you’re sensitive, and arrive about 15–30 minutes early; there are typically drinks and snacks for purchase so bring a card or some cash. The boat is family friendly and life jackets are provided, though access for large wheelchairs may be limited, and mornings tend to be calmer if you want a smoother ride. Book ahead during high season to secure your spot and expect an informative, relaxed outing rather than a fast-paced safari.
