Description
Discover the Algarve coastline on a catamaran cruise from Lagos Marina to Ponta da Piedade, one of Portugal’s most iconic landmarks.
Travel aboard a spacious and comfortable catamaran while admiring Lagos’ golden cliffs, beaches, clear waters and rock formations. A multilingual guide will share insights into the history, geology and natural beauty of the region. An onboard bar service is available, allowing you to purchase drinks while enjoying the views.
This coastal cruise is designed for sightseeing and relaxation. The catamaran does not enter the sea caves or grottoes but offers uninterrupted views of Ponta da Piedade and the Lagos coastline.
If sea conditions permit, the catamaran will anchor in a sheltered bay for a swim in the Atlantic Ocean (≈ 45 min).
You will remain aboard the same catamaran throughout the experience, with no boat transfers required. This makes it an ideal for families, couples and travellers looking for a relaxing and comfortable catamaran tour in Lagos.

It's a nice tour on a bigger boat, replete with a bar and a very clean bathroom facility. They take you by, and point out, a few of the best beaches along the way. We were able to drive into one of the sea caves but otherwise mostly just viewing from close by. The highlight for most folks was finding a nice place to swim and we did that for about 45ish minutes. All in all, good value for money. Very nice and welcoming crew!

Beautiful but a little choppy. After the sightseeing there wasn’t much else except a ride to a calm spot to swim for an hour. Was nice to be on the boat on a beautiful sunny warm day.

The reviews are misleading
I had high expectations based upon previous reviews I had read. The staff was nice and all but it was a pretty boring trip. We briefly sailed past a few beaches then looped around to an area for us to swim for over an hour, then headed back to port. They had a playlist on loop for the duration of the trip. If you’re looking for a very very very relaxed day then great, if you’re looking for some, any kind of excitement - this tour is not it.

Lovely catamaran cruise
We really enjoyed the catamaran cruise. You get a great view of the rocky coastline and caves and the boat is well equipped. However we did find the swim stop was too long, especially on a day when it was a bit chilly for swimming.

Great tour!
This was our second time taking this tour. We enjoyed it so much both times. Took our kids 5 & 6 they loved it! Got to swim for an hour. The boat is great as it’s super spacious. The staff is great and super nice! Offered to take our photos. Can’t wait to come back next year.

This tour was soooo much fun. I really didn’t know what to expect but it was blown out of the park. The staff is so kind and helpful, the boat was nice and spacious. There’s a bar, top level, bottom, inside. I loved how they allocated time to swim; that was the highlight for me. Overall they all went above and beyond. Shoutout to my girl Fifi for being the best.

Lovely day on the water!
The crew was very accommodating, spoke multiple languages. It was a lovely day on the water. The coastal cruise was the perfect amount of time to enjoy the views, relax a little and have fun! Easy to get to . We met up at the Lagos train station then just a 2 minute walk to the marina where we hopped on the boat. Clean bathroom! Highly recommended!
