Sunset Boat tour from Faro.

Had a pleasant boat ride on this trip. Very smooth and scenic. If like me your unsure on bumpy water! don't worry you will be fine. Ricardo was great, informed us of our surroundings when required but he also took in the amazing sunset. Added bonus of watching the planes landing up close above our heads!

Great boat trip with a great guide!

We booked a private sunset tour which was amazing, and Ricardo, our guide did a great job explaining the local fauna. The boat itself was very comfy as well.

Beautiful sunset

We had an amazing sunset boat tour! The crew Andre was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable, making the whole experience relaxing and enjoyable. The scenery was absolutely stunning, especially as the sun set over the water. The boat was comfortable, and there was plenty of time to take photos and soak in the beautiful views. It was the perfect way to spend the evening and one of the highlights of our trip to Faro. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the Algarve! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
