Enjoy a relaxing sunset over the captivating Ria Formosa and its mashes on our boat trip. Our solar-powered boat will provide a quiet and calming experience while conserving the rich flora and fauna of Faro. You will be guided by a local biologist that will tell you all there is to know about the nature of the area while taking you to the best spots to have a panoramic view of the sun setting. As one of the 7 natural wonders of Portugal, this park is something you should not miss while in the Algarve!

A minimum of 2 participants in total is required for the trip to take place.
The ride is a delight because of the landscape and because being a solar boat you can't hear the engine and it is very relaxing. Furthermore, our captain and guide, André, was great telling us things about the biodiversity of the estuary and life in Faro. I definitely recommend this activity for both adults and children. And the sunset from the boat is spectacular
