Seaborn Catamaran trips
By Seaborn Catamaran · listed in whale and dolphin watching tours in Madeira
I'd consider the daytime trip if you want a Funchal catamaran at a low starting adult price. You'll need to be happy with a large group. It shares the lowest starting adult price in our Madeira whale and dolphin watching comparison. Its published group limit is lower than Eco's. This recommendation covers the daytime programme only.
You look for marine wildlife along the coast. There's swimming in summer. Sightings aren't guaranteed. A toilet is included on board. You'll pay extra at the bar. Check which programme your departure follows.
