Very enjoyable

Miguel was a great guide. So friendly - knowledgeable about the nature reserve - and great banter. Relaxing, beautiful and very enjoyable. Fantastic service from start to finish.
Wonderful, informative way to spend an evening!

We loved everything about Faro and this boat trip was the most informative piece of our trip. It was awesome!
Sunset boat trip Faro

Beautiful sunset boat trip with Juan. Very informative and friendly. Saw some egrets and spoonbills. I would highly recommend if you are staying in Faro.
Unforgettable!

Excellent trip. Great value for money. Ricardo’s knowledge of the local area/ flora and fauna was great. The sunset was unforgettable. Now we can say we have been to the most Southernly point in Portugal!
Fantastic trip with Miguel
Published on Jun, 2023
I had read the reviews before booking this trip and had high expectations! We were not disappointed!! We booked the trip at the kiosk by the marina. The guy was also called Miguel and was very helpful.
The boat was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Miguel told us lots of information about the lagoon and all the creatures living there. We saw about 5 or 6 different types of birds and crabs. Miguel was very enthusiastic and knew the lagoon like the back of his hand. The two islands that we went to were beautiful and sufficient time was given on each island and again Miguel gave us lots of information about the islands and what to see there.
The islands are both beautiful . There are sunbeds available on Ilha Deserta and umberellas. The restaurant is really nice on Deserta Island too .
Our return trip to Faro was as enjoyable as the one out. We all enjoyed the trip and was one of the highlights of our stay in Faro
Thank you Miguel for a great day !
