A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE OF THE COASTLINE!
Here you can chose two different types of tour.
We offer you the possibility of Coastal & Grottoes Tour or River & Birdwatching Tour
Explore the hidden coastline of southwest Algarve from the unique perspective of a stand-up paddleboard, and discover places you would never see on a boat tour.
If you’ve never tried stand-up paddleboarding before, then you are in for a treat! Guides will show you the basics and all safety techniques. All paddleboard equipment is provided, including wetsuits and buoyancy aids.
Then, it’s time to hit the coast, starting at a slow pace, stopping to enjoy magnificent grottoes and rock formations. Visit hidden beaches, and venture inside turquoise water caves. Look out for birds above you, and fish below. You will even get the opportunity to try some cliff jumping for an adrenaline kick, or splash around and swim for those who prefer to take things gently.

This tour is ideal for all ages and will take you, your family or friends down the Ribeira de Aljezur River until the Ocean beach of Praia da Amoreira. This River tour is quite gentle and relaxing, yet it’s a fun paddle, perfect to learn and safe for kids too.
After getting all the equipment sorted, we do a safety briefing followed by a Stand up Paddleboarding Lesson explaining how to paddle, how to stand up and balance and how to turn and manoeuvre the board in a calm water environment.
The surrounding is constantly changing as we paddle towards the Ocean: there are areas with wild berry bushes and then salt marshes with mud banks where loads of shellfish grow. On low tide it is a feast for local and migrating birds that love this area to feed and rest. The entire river is full of fish, that will jump out of the water as we paddleboard forward silently. The area then changes one more time when we approach the river beach surrounded by tall dunes just behind Amoreira beach. A paradise place and really quiet with the water flowing slowly, perfect for a swim and for letting the kids play – kids absolutely love this place!
