SALMA – Morocco

Amazing boat trip – Even with seasickness! 😂 What an unforgettable experience! The boat trip was fantastic, with stunning views, paddle boarding, and such a chill vibe. I didn’t know I get seasick, but guess what? I did 😂 Thankfully, the guide was super kind and attentive — he even offered me a Pepsi to help settle my stomach 🥹🫶. Everyone was super friendly and made the trip feel super fun and relaxed. Despite my seasickness, I had an incredible time and would absolutely recommend this tour!

Full description

Step aboard a modern catamaran in Lagos and set off on an unforgettable coastal cruise to Praia da Luz and back. This full-sensory journey along the western Algarve’s golden coastline invites you to discover some of the region’s most breathtaking natural landmarks, from dramatic cliffs and hidden sea caves to famous beaches and crystal-clear waters perfect for swimming and relaxing.

As the catamaran departs from Lagos Marina, sit back and enjoy the scenic sail along the Algarve’s iconic coastline. Soon, you’ll pass the spectacular sea caves of Ponta da Piedade, one of Portugal’s most photographed natural wonders. These remarkable formations—shaped by the forces of wind and sea—reveal arches, grottoes, and narrow passages framed by golden limestone and turquoise waters.

As the journey continues, you’ll cruise by some of the region’s most beloved beaches, including the picturesque shores of Dona Ana, the sheltered cove of Camilo, and the long stretch of Porto de Mós, each offering postcard-perfect views from the water. These locations are a testament to the Algarve’s unique blend of wild beauty and serene seascapes.

Your adventure doesn’t stop at sightseeing. Once the catamaran reaches a quiet and protected bay near Praia da Luz, it’s time for some active fun. The boat will anchor for a refreshing swim stop, giving you a chance to dive into the inviting Atlantic waters. Whether you want to float peacefully, swim freely, or challenge yourself on the inflatable open-water water park setup, this stop is designed for both relaxation and excitement.

For those looking for a little more exploration or balance challenge, paddle boards are also available on board. Glide over the calm waters, explore nearby spots at your own pace, or simply enjoy the serenity of being surrounded by nature.

After your time in the water, climb back on board and stretch out on the catamaran’s spacious sunbathing net. Let the warmth of the sun and the rhythm of the waves guide you into full relaxation mode as the boat gently cruises back towards Lagos. Along the return route, enjoy even more breathtaking views of the Algarve’s cliffs and coastline, now bathed in a different light as the day moves on.

This cruise blends adventure, nature, and tranquility into a perfectly balanced experience. It’s ideal for families, groups of friends, or anyone looking to connect with the Algarve’s coast in a dynamic and memorable way.

What a perfect early evening on the water with this crew! They were genuinely kind, knowledgeable and helpful. We felt so lucky to be on board for a few hours with them. Boat was beautiful and the tour was the perfect length to experience the beauty of The Algarve coast. Thank you so much!
