This list covers the dolphin-watching sails and boat trips out of Marbella and Puerto Banús. Common and striped dolphins live in these waters year-round, so sightings are frequent, though never promised. Morning departures get calmer seas, which matters with kids aboard.
Navigate the thrilling Guadalmina River on a guided canyoning adventure, where you'll tackle jumps, swim through crystal-clear pools, and ride a thrilling toboggan.
