About Madeira Sea Emotions
Madeira Sea Emotions is a marine tour operator based at Quinta do Lorde Marina in Caniçal, on Madeira's eastern tip near the spectacular Ponta de São Lourenço nature reserve. Their location at the meeting point of the island's north and south coasts gives access to some of the richest marine wildlife waters in the Madeiran archipelago.
Their programme combines whale and dolphin watching with kayak tours, snorkelling experiences, and coastal exploration. Whale watching trips run aboard RIBs — rigid-hulled inflatable boats that sit low to the water for closer encounters with sperm whales, pilot whales, and multiple dolphin species. Marine biologist guides provide live commentary on every trip. Kayak and SUP tours explore the dramatic volcanic coastline around Ponta de São Lourenço, with snorkelling stops in sheltered bays where visibility regularly exceeds 20 metres.
Madeira Sea Emotions stands out for their eastern-coast base, which puts them in waters that most Funchal-based operators don't reach. The combination of cetacean watching and hands-on paddling makes them a strong option for visitors who want both the thrill of a wildlife boat trip and the intimate experience of exploring Madeira's coastline under their own power. Tours run three times daily, and transfers from Funchal hotels are available.
