Perfect for anyone who loves beautiful beaches and marine life - It was one of the best experiences of my stay in Lisbon! It's great for anyone who loves nature, swimming, animals and beaches. Mind you - the water can be cold, this is the ocean. We saw octopuses, lots of fish and a small crab. The weather was gorgeous and the guides make sure you go on a day with a beautiful forecast. Don't be upset if it gets cancelled - they just want to make sure you go on an ideal day, I waited and wasn't disappointed. 20/10, recommended with my whole heart!!!

Great sea life! - I saw two octopus and a sea urchin! Fabulous day trip from Lisbon. Be prepared. Even worth the wetsuit the water is cold. But worth it!

Great experience - Nuno was a brilliant guide, very friendly and full of stories about Portugal! This snorkeling experience would be fantastic for beginners or nervous swimmers as you walk from the beach into waist deep water and you are able to see a variety of animals - we saw 3 octopuses! Arrabida is stunning, the beach we went to was very pretty. Water was freezing so I didn’t stay in as long as I could have, but a lovely experience regardless.

Best experience I’ve ever had 🌞🌊 - This experience was one of the best things I’ve ever done! It was straight up amazing. We got picked up and taken to the beach, which was beautiful and almost empty. Everything went in a good pace and he took the time to make sure that we felt safe and good in the water and with all the equipment. When we started snorkeling we saw a whole other world under the sea filled with fish and other sea life. The water was so nice, warm and clear for us to enjoy! After the snorkeling we stayed at the beach a little bit to enjoy the sun and the amazing views. We got taught about Portugal and it’s people and way of life and we were having great conversations about the world. We drove home again to Lisbon after a few hours and on the way back we got some fantastic recommendations for the rest of our trip. Thank you so much to Filipe for the amazing experience 🌞

Perfect half-day experience with unforgettable views! - Our guide was Filipe - very competent, nice guy with a lot of interesting stories and insights. It was a real pleasure - Filipe picked us up at our hotel in Sesimbra and brought us back than, so we had nothing to worry about. He also had all the equipement for us (wet suit, snorkelling masks etc.) and provided us with very useful introduction into snorkelling. We were about 1,5 hours in water - watching the underwater world. Filipe was all the time with us - assisting and filming us. Very cool experience!

Snorkeling in Arrabida - We had a private tour for a group of 10 for snorkeling. The trip included sightseeing, transportation from our location, snorkeling and underwater photos. Their communication was excellent before and during the experience. They contacted us 2 days earlier to make sure of our sizes and pickup location were correct. The guides were very friendly and explained very thorougly about the Portuguese nature. They answered our questions really well and the level of English was really good. Wetsuits and other snorkeling equipment was provided by them, which worked good. Maybe a couple of masks were a bit foggy (even though they had been treated with antifog substance). The snorkeling surroundings were phenomenal. The beach wasn't crowded and the water was clear. The journey to the beach from parking space was quite rocky but it didn't bother at all when we arrived to the beach. All in all I would highly recommend this experience. If you make a booking from GetStoked, I would recommend asking for recommendations and talking with the guides actively, so you get most out of your experience. + Guides were professional, friendly and kind + Snorkeling location was really good

Nice experience - Nuno was a very good guide, he was aware of our safety all the time. It is a very nice experience. We saw some types of fish and the beach was relatively few people.

Trip cancelled due to bad weather - The weather was bad for snorkelling and forecast to be bad on the day booked for the experience so the organisers contacted me to book an alternative experience which we did not want. Consequently they initiated a cancellation and a refund which was paid promptly.

No response and gesture - We excitedly booked a guided tour through this platform, but unfortunately our experience turned out to be an absolute disaster. The guide who was supposed to accompany us never showed up, leaving us perplexed and frustrated. After waiting patiently for two hours, our wait was rewarded with nothing but disappointment. We were really looking forward to seeing the local attractions and learning about the history of the area, but it all remained an unfulfilled dream due to the guide's absence.
