Great experience - It was amazing! I highly recommend it. We went by boat to a fisherman island where we kayaked and then took a walk around. The boat driver explained a lot about the island and gave us some tips.

Afternoon in Ria Formosa Paradise - We took a family tour (with a 3-year-old child) along the Ria Formosa with stops in Culatra Island and Desert where we could enjoy a dive in the warm and calm waters of the Ria. The tour is very pleasant for the landscape and for the sympathy and availability of Mr. Ricardo. It was a very good afternoon. We have to go back!

Charming and refreshing tour - We were lucky to have the boat just for the four of us and were able to leave as soon as we arrived. The fisherman’s village is very charming and we had a refreshing swim at the beach. The guide is very friendly and knowledgeable. We visited at high tide so we could not see the oyster pits etc. If you book you might want to consider to book during low tides.

So much better than taking the ferry. Worth it!! - An amazing beach trip for my family! We’ve taken the Olhão ferry multiple times and this experience was a huge step up. Boat service direct to a secluded beach gave us more time to enjoy the sun and water.

An Excellent Beach Adventure! - My family enjoyed an amazing three hour beach retreat with Fun and Sun Tours. We left from the Olhāo marina and went on a private boat to a very secluded beach on Isla Hangares. Once we arrived we were quickly set up with a paddle board and a two person kayak (we could have chosen whatever mix of water equipment we preferred). The location was perfect and we had so much fun. Paddlng up the beach we were had fantastic sea and island views, including Farol lighthouse. The guide/owner was helpful and gave us some great local history during the boatride. We will definitely use Fun and Sun Tours again!
