The history of Vertigem Azul starts in 1998, when Maria João Fonseca and Pedro Narra created a Nature tourism company, pioneer in the observation of dolphins of Sado.
As of 2007, the Vertigem Azul purchases a catamaran sailboat, opens a new space in Setúbal and settles in Tróia Marina – where it already operated since 2000.
In 2018 it acquires a luxurious catamaran “O Jasmim”.
Thinking about the individual or corporate customer, Vertigem Azul focuses on the organisation of events and in the offer of differentiated nature programmes, contributing to the national tourism offer, providing great moments and making dreams come true for everyone visiting them.

Dolphin Watching in the Sado Estuary, Comporta
During your stay in Comporta , spend half a day visiting the local pod of dolphins actively living within the freshwater of the Sado Estuary. The community of Sado Bottlenose Dolphins were first identified in 1981 and are carefully monitored and tracked.
Enjoy a three-hour guided trip aboard Vertigem Azul ’s catamaran, visiting the estuary and the Arrábida coast. In the height of our Portugal summer you may enjoy lounging on the nets being cooled by the ocean spray. For sun-phobes, there are plenty of seated shady areas too.
Vertigem Azul are known to have a 95% successful sighting rate, but do remember they cannot be held responsible if the dolphins prefer not to be observed on your scheduled trip. Check out their website for other nature activities including birdwatching or wine sunset cruises. The catamaran is also available for private events.

Viagem a bordo do Veleiro Catamarã - O Esperança, à descoberta da comunidade de golfinhos do Sado, pelas magníficas paisagens do Estuário do Sado, costa de Troia e Arrábida. O passeio efectua-se durante todo o ano com saídas de Setúbal e Tróia, e tem a duração de 2 horas e meia a 3 horas.
Lovely 3 hour plus trip on a large catamaran to watch dolphins in the Sado estuary off Setubal harbour. The captain seemed experienced in finding the dolphins though in the end it was just one playful loner who entertained us. Enough for some great photos and videos.
