What a wonderful outing! We skipped the swimming and dolphin ones and chose this very concentrated tour, exploring the caves off the coast. Jack was our knowledgeable and amusing guide who was warm, and very skilled with the boat. Highly recommend!
A must try experience!

The most important part of any boat trip to me is safety, and I really appreciated that this tour operator was focused on allowing us to have a safe, enjoyable trip to the grottos! We all had life jackets and motored slowly through the marina, and then out in the open water a bit faster to get to the various grottos. The guide did a wonderful job of explaining what we were seeing and was very funny, he spoke English, French and Portuguese, so they are very accomodating. The captain did an excellent job of steering the boat in/out of some tight places and staying in calmer waters/out of wake of other boats. Overall, I really enjoyed the fresh air, sunshine and the amazing pictures I was able to take, as the captain angled so that both sides of the boat could get good pictures! Book with this company for safety, flexibility in languages and good pictures!
Incredible!

It was a perfect afternoon to be on the water. Unless you wanted to take photos (which I did). The captain was fantastic with his storytelling of the grottos, but it was so sunny my pictures didn't turn out! I came back the next day hoping to join another trip, but there wasn't one available, instead they went above and beyond and found another company that had a group booked. I got better pictures the second day, but the first day's tour is what will always stay with me. I would definitely book with them again!

Angelo was an excellent guide with a lot of knowledge of the history of Lagos and Portugal as well as the grottos. Evo, our captain was simply amazing. He was able to safely navigate us into the tiniest of grottos for a awesome experience. I felt like I was in good hands!
Perfect afternoon on the water

We enjoyed our boat tour. Angelo and Ivo were great, providing lots of info and conversation along the coast. We are from Canada and we took the same tour back in 2020. It's absolutely worth doing twice. Also Connie is the best!
Wonderful trip

We had a fabulous boat trip. Juo and Angelo were very kind and friendly. They were excellent seamen. They also had a lot of information about the area and it’s history.
Certainly recommend it. We would like to one of their other trips.
