Dolphin-Watching Boat Trip from Benalmádena
Head out of Puerto Marina into open water in search of wild dolphins on this easygoing catamaran cruise along the Costa del Sol. The trip runs about **1 hour 40 minutes aboard the New Magic**, a modern catamaran with an open sun deck and a bar, on a responsible, licensed tour that posts an audited **88% dolphin-sighting success rate**. Beyond the dolphins, there are wide views back to Benalmádena and the mountains behind it, and in summer a swim stop in the open sea with a water slide — an easy, low-key outing that's great with kids.
