Discover the Ria Formosa Natural Reserve as you navigate through its most enchanting locations on this boat tour departing from Olhão. Are you prepared to embark on a unique aquatic adventure?
Ria Formosa Boat Excursion
At the designated time, we will gather at the port of Olhão to board our vessel and commence the journey through the Ria Formosa. Are you eager to visit one of Portugal's renowned Natural Wonders?
Once aboard, our crew will provide insights into this stunning wetland located in the Algarve region. We will discuss the ecological features of the estuary, its diverse plant life, and place a special emphasis on its rich wildlife. Are you aware that this region is particularly celebrated for its avian diversity?
Our first stop will be Farol Island, where we will disembark. Here, you'll have 45 minutes to explore and visit the notable Cabo de Santa Maria Lighthouse, a famous landmark of the Algarve.
Next, we will proceed to Culatra Island, pausing for 20 minutes at this historic fishing enclave. Immerse yourself in the serenity and peaceful atmosphere of the village, allowing yourself time to unwind.
If you are participating during the summer months, our following destination will be Armona Island. In contrast, winter visitations will lead us to Deserta Island. Regardless of the island chosen, you will have one hour of leisure time to admire and experience their stunning natural surroundings.
After an enriching 5 hours and 30 minutes exploring the wonders of Ria Formosa, we will return you to the port of Olhão.
