3 Island Boat Trip through the Ria Formosa Natural Park"Very complete excursion. The captain, Claudio, very kind and patient. "Angie · June 2024From 30€

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.

"We had a great time with the crew, who were really friendly.
The captain, who spoke a little French, made the effort to give us directions for each cave we visited.
We were comfortable on the boat, and being at the back, we could move around to take photos.
Excellent value for money.
Plus, there's a very large free parking lot."

"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!"
