Ria Formosa Boat Tour

At the agreed time, we'll meet at the port of Olhao, where we'll board a boat to start the cruise along the Ria Formosa.

Aboard the boat, we'll discuss the environmental characteristics of this wetland in the Algarve region, its vegetation, and its wildlife, particularly its bird diversity.

The first stop will be at Farol Island, where you'll have 45 minutes of free time to visit the famous Cabo de Santa Maria Lighthouse.

Next, we will stop for 20 minutes at Culatra Island, an old fishing village where you'll enjoy 2 hours to explore the beaches, swim, and sample local gastronomy.

In summer, our next stop will be Armona Island, while in winter, we will visit Desierta Island. You will have 1 hour of free time at whichever island we visit to explore the natural scenery.

After 5 hours 30 minutes of exploration in Ria Formosa, we'll return you to the port of Olhao.
