Discover one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Portugal on this cruise along the beautiful Ria Formosa. You'll visit the island of Armona and learn all about oyster farming.

Activity Details

At the designated time, we'll meet at Dr. César Oliveira de Fuzeta Avenue to board the boat for a cruise along the Ria Formosa. We will set sail to explore the Ria Formosa Natural Park, viewing small fishing villages and various wildlife and vegetation, including over 20,000 bird species.

The wetlands will lead us to the island of Armona, where you will have half an hour to explore. You can relax on its golden sandy beaches or sample the local cuisine.

Afterward, we will reconvene to continue our sailing along the estuary, learning about the significance of shellfishing in the region as we pass by oyster farms.

Our boat tour of the Ría Formosa islands will conclude back at the original departure point after a total of 2 hours.
