Praia do Zimbralinho - Night Snorkeling in a marine protected area. A lifetime experience!
Perfectly safe tour, in a secret natural pool inside the Marine Protected Area, that without our local guide you wouldn´t dare.
Ranked among 5 best activities in Porto Santo by Tripadvisor, this tour, has a very short window of opportunity, only available in some weeks when low tide occurs in the night. You will feel like Neil Armstrong exploring a new world! Totally dark with the exception of the place where you point out your flashlight. You get the opportunity to safely meet the night creatures that appear in the dark, like the night octopus or some astonishing beautiful shrimps Expect to see seastars and sea urchins in odd places, everything looks strange….Also different coloured fishes laying down sleeping, moray eels, a cuttlefish hunting, and of course some strange brittle stars; this is the cheapest ticket to Mars!.

Try it! - Experience in total safety, relaxing but at the same time exciting because the ocean at night is truly fascinating.
We did not suffer the cold thanks to the wetsuit provided by Matias and we managed to see many octopuses and other sea creatures.
I do not recommend flip-flops because the descent to the beach is not easy.

Night snorkeling porto santo - What an amazing night/trip. Our guide was a legend from the start and totally on our wave length!. The snorkeling was great and we got to see 4x octopus and other sea creatures. The only negative was there was too many on our trip and every time we kept trying to swim then all of a sudden someone would cut right in front of you and ude get a flipper in your face!!

Amazing night snorkling - I was so lucky to go on the night snorkling with Mathias . We were only us and spent almost 1.5 hour in the water. We saw a lot octupus, starfish, crabs, shrimps, morebeeal and so much more. It was amazing entering the water in the darknes and at the end of the snorkling we got out with sunrise. I felt secure, well taking care of and just loved it.

Night Snorkelling :) - Really enjoyed this experience! Got to see lots of fishes, octopus,cuttlefish,starfish etc
The rock pool is stunning and vast so there is a lot to explore.
The experience is definitely accessible even if you feel you are not the strongest of swimmers. Matias is a very experienced and patient host who will make you feel at ease. Thank you!!

Just do it! - Wonderfull place to snorkel. We snorkel a lot but it is also good for beginners, Mathias takes the time to explain and knows the right tides so it is very safe. The company of Sherlock the Portugese waterdog who splashes around ypu when you snorkel is extra! 🤩😆
