Fantastic half day tour of the Algarve aboard the Snow White with Captain Bruno! He personalized our trip into an incredible experience. Swam along the cliffs and sipped on rosé.
Many thanks for your lovely review, I am delighted to hear you enjoyed your boat trip with us and I will pass on your kind comments to Bruno. I hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday and hope to see you again. Thank you for booking with us.
Our initial bigger boat had issues but we negotiated a fair reimbursement for the smaller boat use. The other boat slightly smaller but had all the amenities. Bruno the operator was great. Informative and friendly. Could connect phone to the boat for music. Cooler had nice drinks. Spots to see things were nice. Well worth the privacy and great for family. My 5 and 10 year enjoyed staying on the paddle board to enjoy the water.
Hi Shehzad, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're delighted that you and your family still had a great experience. Bruno will be very pleased to hear your kind comments, and we're especially glad to hear your children enjoyed the paddle board. We hope to welcome you all back on board again soon! Thank you once again for choosing to book with us.😊
We had an incredible experience on a charter boat with Nick and Sue — they truly made our trip unforgettable. Their knowledge of the area was impressive, and they took the time to explain the landscape and local highlights in a way that really deepened our appreciation for what we were seeing. Beyond their expertise, they were genuinely warm, friendly, and hospitable throughout the entire trip. If you’re looking for a charter experience that goes above and beyond, look no further — we can’t recommend Nic and Sue highly enough! We will definitely be back!!

Wonderful morning with Bruno on the water. Due to the weather we weren’t able to get to the caves and Lagos Boat Charter didn’t even hesitate to offer an alternative itinerary or a refund if we decided to not go/choose a difft tour option. We spent the morning with Bruno on the water and it was a highlight of our trip. He was friendly, shared great information about the cliffs and beaches, we got to snorkel and paddle board…professional company from owner to boat captain and would not hesitate to use again if we are back in Lagos. Highly recommend!

We had an absolutely incredible experience with Lagos Boat Charter! From start to finish, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism. The team was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and knowledgeable, making us feel comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. Spending the day out on the water along the stunning Algarve coast was truly unforgettable. The boat was equipped with paddle boards and kayaks, which made the experience even more fun and interactive. My husband had requested champagne and a charcuterie board, and they did a fantastic job putting it all together. It was such a thoughtful and beautifully arranged touch. We also loved that we could connect our device via Bluetooth to play our own music, which made the day feel even more personalized. Nick and Bruno really knew how to create a perfect atmosphere and made sure we had a wonderful, relaxing, and fun day on the water. If you’re thinking about chartering a boat, look no further. Lagos Boat Charter is the way to go. Highly recommend!

This was the highlight of our Portugal trip! Nick and Sue are the greatest hosts and showed us a wonderful afternoon cruising the coast of Lagos. The boat "Pocahontas" was exceptional and added that special touch of luxury to make it unforgettable. We had plenty of wine and beer while Nick and Sue foraged us an incredible Charcuterie board to nosh. This IS the excursion you're looking for if you come across this review.
