Description

"Venture" into dusk on a Classic boat cruise through the beautiful Ria Formosa, as you relax and become one with nature and wildlife of this amazing Paradise. The emphasis of this experience is to enjoy and take your mind off things. Drinks and typical Portuguese TAPAS are served onboard, as we glide quietly into the Sunset, that magical and unhurried moment, when it seems that nature and time itself slow down as our King Star says goodbye to us and inevitably dives into the horizon, displaying dazzling colours, sensations of tranquillity and unforgettable pleasure. Sunset our emblem and inspiration, the philosophy that drove our project, the desire to offer pleasant and unforgettable experiences in your own time, without rush or extremes, at your own pace. Exercise your senses, sip your drink, taste the fruits of the ocean (oysters and others) listen to the sound of pure nature, the birds, the waves, or, the right musical note of your choice for that unique moment in a magical place.

Fascinating trip around the islands with insightful guide

Wonderful outing with Daniel and Suraya. Very interesting and genuine - Daniel took his time to explain everything from tides, oyster and clam fishing, migration of birds, local economics of the fishermen, pirating and Ria Formosa defence strategies, the decline of canned fishing, the growth of French born oysters etc etc. But all throughout he spoke with passion and not a prepared script - really felt special and got an insight to Olhão and the Islands culture. Boat is large with toilet and cold drinks on board. Thank you

Operator response

Thank you so much for the insightful review. It is very rewarding when our knowledge and enthusiasm is being received and perceived on the other end. We do really live and breathe this magnificent place which is Ria Formosa, and that is what we try for people to feel with our interactions, a little bit of this daily living in this Paradise. Daniel and Soraia.

The boat, the views, the professionalism and sympathy of Daniel and Soraia, made this tour an unforgettable experience. It was undoubtedly a very well spent day. We made 2 stops for dives and to enjoy the crystal clear waters of Ria. I highly recommend!

Tour in Ria

The best day ever. We went with friends on this tour, with music and relaxed atmosphere, in the best landscapes, and always attentive to the explanations of the guide. The water temperature helped and the sun was partner, the cherry on top of the cake. We hope to be back soon. Thank you 👍🏻
