What to expect
You'll board a comfortable, well-maintained vessel with a small group and head into the blue. The boat moves slowly enough to let you watch properly without feeling rushed. Bring sunscreen and a hat—there's limited shade on deck. Dolphins aren't guaranteed, but the waters off Fuengirola are frequented by bottlenose and striped varieties, particularly in warmer months. If nothing surfaces, you'll still get two hours on the water with decent refreshments and company. The crew knows the routes and best spots; trust their eye more than your own at first.
Good to know
Wear layers—sea breezes cool quickly even on warm days. The boat rocks gently; if you're prone to seasickness, take precautions beforehand. Children under two sit on an adult's lap; prams stow easily below. Public buses serve the Fuengirola waterfront.
