    Private Boat Trip through the Ria Formosa Natural Park
    "I would recommend this private boat trip because you can go at your pace. We went to the fishing port. This was an awesome experience. The best island would be Ihla Deserta where you can have lunch in Estancia (very good food but reserve ahead of time) and also swim. Do not spend more than 20 mins in Armona and Farol. Go to Culatra to buy fresh oysters from the fishermen. A 6 hour private trip is perfect. "Teresa O , October 2, 2025

    Sunset Boat Trip from Faro along the Ria Formosa
    "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"MILAGROS, August 30, 2023

    "A beautiful excursion not to be missed, to admire the coast from the sea. It was unhurried and the dinghy was not crowded. The guide, Julie, was very good, even with her Italian, which, although not fluent, was easily understood. Her attentiveness, friendliness, and professionalism more than made up for it. Captain Helder, excellent, friendly, and attentive, guided the dinghy, allowing us to fully enjoy the view. Thank you for an experience we will never forget!"Bruno, September 22, 2025
