An unforgettable sunset
What a wonderful walk on the ocean towards Cape Espinchel!!! We caught plenty of them with the colors of the rocks of this protected park and a splendid sunset over the sea with the filigree cliffs. These cliffs, carved in the thick of the waves for millions of years, teach us a little about the geology of the place. But it is also thanks to Catarina, our adorable guide, who led us along the coast to secret beaches and incredible caves. This is really an experience not to be missed. You should also know that we were with a person with reduced mobility. Catarina and André (our captain) bent over backwards so that she was well settled and reassured. We will definitely not forget this beautiful excursion

A breathtaking experience !
We had an incredible experience on this sunset tour: the area is magnificent with cliffs and blue lagoon water… simply breathtaking with this “golden hour” light.
Catarina suggested having the tour a little earlier in the week so that we could have optimal conditions and it was perfect! As well as being easygoing and welcoming, Catarina and André are two great guides: our curiosity was satisfied with all the explanations about the different beaches and caves around us.
I highly recommend it!

Incredible Sunset
Our team made a tour to see the dolphins at sunset and it was amazing! After seeing the dolphins we still had the opportunity to see a part of the Natural Park Coast, wild beaches and caves!
The highlight was the sunset at Cabo Espichel
Thanks for the experience crew

Amazing experience
What an amazing night we had aboard this boat!
The navigation was very calm and perfectly controlled by the pilot. It allowed us to discover incredible natural places such as wild beaches and caves carved by the sea. We could also stop in a small cove to enjoy the scenery/landscapes and have an aperitif. The staff was very welcoming and warm, giving us a lot of explanations about the history of the fauna and flora of the place. Finally, the sunset at the cape was incredible. It will stay for sure as one of my best memories from my vacations in Portugal.

An unforgettable experience!
Amazing! The journey experience from Sesimbra to Cape Espichel was unique, surprising in every minute, and very beautiful. We got to know several caves, beaches (some inaccessible by land), and their stories.
The sympathy and knowledge of André, who guided us in this experience, were incredible. Always with great availability.
The journey is surprising to the last minute. To be able to see the sunset, in the middle of the sea, in Cabo Espichel, and to drink a wine from the region of Setúbal, is a beautiful and unforgettable experience.
There was also attention in relation to the days we live, and there is a pandemic, as all hygiene and protection care was taken into account, without compromising the travel experience. Thank you.

Epic and awesome sunset!
What an end to our day!
We decide, as André advice to go for the Capo Espichel Sunset tour and what a choice it was! The cliffs meeting the sea, the beautiful caves and beaches... Just so amazing!
André was very communicative and helpful, explaining all the legends and facts about all the places we saw! You can feel that he loves what he does and the place he lives and that's the king of guide you want anywhere and the world! It really was a day to remember and a trip to take again!
