    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 2023

Michaël
"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."
