Details
Snorkeling offers all nature lovers a unique insight into the underwater world of the Algarve. Accompany your local guides to the most beautiful places for snorkeling around Lagos and Sagres! Rocks covered with anemones, plants and corals together with numerous shoals of fish and other sea dwellers make the experience unforgettable.
Snorkeling area
In the so-called rock Algarve, we have different areas for snorkeling, which we reach from the shore. Depending on the current, visibility and personal conditions, we choose the best spot of the day for you. Thanks to the shallowness of the water, the view of the varied flora and fauna at the Algarvian coast is particularly good. Among our most popular places for snorkeling are the seahorse reef, where many of these little creatures can be found, and the reef Pedra da Gaivota with impressive colourful fan corals.
Programme- Meeting & Preparation:
We meet at the diving school on the premises of the Beco Luz Bay Club in Lagos, parking here is free. We can also organise a pick-up service around Lagos, for an extra charge (to be arranged after your booking). At our base, you get to know your guide and receive your snorkeling equipment. Changing rooms, showers and toilets are also at your disposal there.
- Snorkeling:
As soon as all participants are ready, we set off for the coast with our jeeps. Together with your guide, you discover the fascinating underwater world of the Algarve. The local expert can tell you a lot about the local flora and fauna, but he will also be happy to give you tips on snorkeling techniques.
- Return:
After the adventure, we return to the diving school, where you can end the day relaxing at the pool bar.

Booked it for myself and my 8 year old. We had an absolute blast.
It was so much fun to hear my son make happy squeeks through his mask everytime he saw a fish or octopus. I wonder who enjoyed the snorkelling the most. Him, me or maybe even Kati (our guide) 😉
Thanks Kati for an unforgetable experience and a big smile on our faces.
