Great afternoon trip from Faro - Comfortable boat. Great skipper, Juao, who did a fab job speaking three different languages with his guests. 45 mins was just right time to spend on each island. Highly recommend

Perfect 👌 - I had an amazing experience on the 2 Stop | 2 Islands & Ria Formosa Natural Park tour! The 3-hour catamaran ride was smooth and relaxing, with stunning views of the lagoons and abundant wildlife. Deserta Island was a peaceful retreat, with its untouched beaches perfect for a quiet walk or swim. Farol Island was equally captivating, with its iconic lighthouse and charming village vibe. The crew was friendly and knowledgeable, providing interesting insights about the area. This tour is a must for nature enthusiasts and anyone seeking a serene escape into Portugal’s natural beauty. Highly recommended!

Great experience at Faro - Very nice experience. Special thanks to Philipe who explained us the beauties of this amazing place. The weather was a bit cold and this didn’t help to fully enjoy the moment.
