Day Cruises in The Algarve

Hop aboard this timeless pirate ship for a 2-hour or half-day Captain Hook cruise leaving from Albufeira. This Algarve sightseeing cruise offers two options that captures pristine coastal views and gives you a chance to see dolphins as well as take a dip in the Atlantic. The half-day cruise  or 2-hour of the Algarve visits the caves which seize the beauty of the coast. On both itineraries it is possible to view dolphins from the boat or even take a swim.

Cruise from Faro to Ria Formosa Natural Park on a 3-hour outing by catamaran that explores the remote islands of Faro and Deserta. This cruise is the perfect way to experience the Ria Formosa estuary, where you'll find a maze of wetlands split by canals and hidden islands. Watch for the coastal birds of the Algarve as you relax on the 12-person catamaran, then enjoy some beach time on each island before returning to Faro. Both morning and afternoon departures are available.

The Ria Formosa Natural Park is one of the most impressive natural wonders along Portugal's Algarve coast and the best way to explore is by boat. Hop aboard a catamaran on this 4.5-hour small-group tour from Faro; cruise around the islands of Armona, Culatra, Farol, and Deserta; and spot wild flamingos and egrets swooping over the lagoon.
