An unforgettable family moment

Family discovery of coastering with Francisco: unforgettable moment! Between the jumps, climbing, and zip-lining, we had a lot of fun! An experience to live!

Merci beaucoup pour votre magnifique commentaire ! Nous sommes ravis d'apprendre que vous avez partagé ce moment inoubliable en famille avec Francisco. Le coasteering est une activité qui allie aventure, dépassement de soi et plaisir, et c'est un vrai bonheur de savoir que vous avez apprécié les sauts, l'escalade et la tyrolienne. Nous transmettrons avec plaisir vos compliments à Francisco. Merci pour votre recommandation, et nous espérons avoir le plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau pour une nouvelle aventure dans le Parc Naturel d'Arrábida !

Coastering with the Family

Fantastic day out. Fabio and Francisco were professional, attentive, and great fun. If you have done canyoning this is one step beyond with knee trembling jumps. Don't worry. The guys will assist and support you throughout. Alternative jumps exist if you can't keep up with your kids! The surroundings are idyllic and the guides are full of local knowledge. Bring over shorts for outside the wetsuit, a gopro if you dare, and a sense of adventure.

Operator response

11/10 Experience

We had SO much fun! Our #1 outdoor activity in Portugal this summer. Jéssica was an AWESOME guide and her intern (Fabio?) made it really enjoyable! Definitely need to bring some upper body strength for this activity, but everything else is provided. Would recommend renting shoes and shorts from them as the cliffs tear up both.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your amazing review! We're thrilled to hear that coasteering was your #1 outdoor activity in Portugal this summer! It means a lot to us that you had such a fun experience. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Jéssica and Fábio—they'll be delighted to know they helped make your adventure so memorable. And thank you as well for mentioning the shoe and shorts rental. That's a great tip for future adventurers, as the rocky coastline can indeed be tough on personal gear. We hope to welcome you back to Arrábida for another adventure someday!
