Ria Formosa Cruise
Ria Formosa Cruise
At 2.30 pm, we'll meet at Dr. César Oliveira de Fuzeta Avenue to board the boat for a pleasant cruise along the Ria Formosa. Let's set sail!
We'll sail around the Ria Formosa Natural Park, admiring its small fishing villages and its varied wildlife and vegetation. Did you know that over 20,000 birds can be found in this park? We'll try to spot some of the most unusual species as we cruise the river.
The wetlands will lead us to the island of Armona, where we'll give you half an hour of free time to explore the area. You can take this chance to take a dip in its golden sandy beaches or try the exquisite local cuisine.
Afterward, we'll reconvene back at the boat to continue sailing along the estuary. We'll learn about the importance of shellfishing in this area as we pass by some oyster farms.
Our boat tour of the Ría Formosa islands will come to an end back at the original departure point at 4.30 pm.
