What an experience! Miguel hosted a group of us, travelling around the Centre of Portugal together. We had the most incredible time on the Obidos Lagoon. Miguel's knowledge and experience was unsurpassed. He took the time to explain the history of the lagoon, the wildlife that share this special place and made our boat trip a highlight of the time in Portugal. Thank you Miguel!
Great day out on the lagoon. Miguel is very knowledgeable and a great guide whilst his son gave us a very smooth ride on the boat. Was great to see the flamingoes and we even saw an Osprey! The lunch stop was excellent too. All in all I could fault the day and would highly recommend.
We had an unforgettable boat tour of the Óbidos Lagoon with Intertidal Outdoor Experiences and Water Sports Center in Foz do Arelho. Our guide – who is also the owner – was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and engaging. He shared fascinating insights about the lagoon’s history and nature, all while making the tour fun, relaxed, and welcoming. His enthusiasm made the whole experience truly special. The scenery was stunning, the atmosphere was friendly, and we left with wonderful memories. I highly recommend Intertidal to anyone visiting the area – it’s the perfect way to discover the beauty of the lagoon!
Welcoming very friendly. Tour of the lagoon in French. Beautiful landscapes with pink flamingos. The restaurant was nice by the water and the meal very good. The guide is very kind. Nice family Enterprise.
Extremely enjoyable tour with Miguel who is very knowledgeable and passionate about Obidos lagoon. We got to see how clams are collected in traditional and more modern methods. We saw pollock fish jumping from the water and cormorants struggling to consume eels. The tour is at a wonderfully leisurely pace and we got to learn lots about the wider area as well (the tip to visit Praia de São Martinho and Nazaré are worth passing on). Highly recommended tour in a beautiful place.
This is such a great trip - Miguel is a fount of knowledge & interesting facts. Good communications to plan the trip, good value. Learnt a lot about the Obidos lagoon. Would certainly repeat with other visitors. Very enjoyable & informative afternoon.
Thank you very much, the children loved it and so did we! We had a great time. We hope our little ones will become aware of the beauty of nature through your interventions. They were impressed by the spiderfish, I hope it will be good! Have a good day and a great end to the season
What a wonderful time. Our host Miguel was so knowledgeable on the history and marine life in the area. The lunch was fantastic. Highly recommend.
Hello Carolyn, it was a pleasure hosting you In "our" Lagoon. Hope you also enjoy the rest of your Portuguese Tour. :)
Great day on the lagoon! Such a beautiful area & appreciated all of the information shared about the history & landscape. Lunch spot was good as well.
The 2 hour walk on the lagoon is very nice (we were 2 adults and 2 children including a baby of 15 months). We had an informative time with all the information given by Captain Miguel. The views are beautiful and the binoculars made available allowed to appreciate them (especially the flamingos). The boat is comfortable. I highly recommend this visit. Marc
