Description

Embark on an all equiped boat and navigate in the Ria Formosa Lagoon.

Guided by an expert of the Ria Formosa, set off on the discovery of what is called one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Portugal. This Natural Park is an ideal site for the bird watching of diverse species and other animals. The park is a preserved zone that focuses on the protection of its animal inhabitants.

Onboard the boat that facilitates close-range observation, you will be able to observe birds like the white stork, the little egret and the spoonbill.  You will also have the chance to visit the Islands of the Natural Park, and especially the oyster and clams farms. It is one of the most important activities in the Algarve !

You will then head towards to one of the lagoon’s exits into the sea. Take a break in order to fully enjoy this paradisiac landscape. 

Leave Faro for a boat ride and discover the fauna and flora of Algarve!
