What to expect
You'll board a private vessel with your group and motor into Algeciras Bay under your captain's guidance. The waters here stay relatively flat due to the bay's natural shelter, so rough seas aren't typically an issue. Dolphins and cetaceans do frequent these waters, though sightings aren't guaranteed—it's nature, not a zoo. Bring binoculars and patience. Two hours gives you decent time to cruise and watch, though how much wildlife you encounter depends on the day. Children handle the boat motion well given the calm conditions.
