5.00We had the most incredible experience with Torquay Watersports! My husband treated us to the 90-minute RIB ride along the coast for seal and dolphin spotting, and it absolutely exceeded all expectations. At first, the sea was quite choppy and I thought we might not be lucky enough to see any dolphins, but our skipper was fantastic. He waited patiently, determined not to give up – and then the magic happened! We were treated to the unforgettable sight of a POD of dolphins, including a mother and her baby, swimming alongside the boat in their natural habitat. It was truly breathtaking and something I’ll never forget. The whole trip was exciting, professional, and so well organised. My cheeks hurt from smiling the entire time. Who needs to go abroad when you can enjoy world-class experiences like this right here on our doorstep? Thank you so much, Torquay Watersports, for an unforgettable day – highly recommended

The safety briefing was thorough, and we felt completely at ease. Once out on the water, the ride was exhilarating – fast, fun, and full of beautiful coastal scenery. The boat was in excellent condition and the staff made the whole trip feel special. Perfect for families looking to do something adventurous together. Highly recommended!
