On this boat trip on the Guadiana River, we'll sail along the Portuguese coast of Vila Real de Santo António and the Spanish coast of Ayamonte.

Description

On this boat trip on the Guadiana River, we'll sail along the Portuguese coast of Vila Real de Santo António and the Spanish coast of Ayamonte.

Description

At the indicated time we'll start this boat trip on the Guadiana from the Centro Náutico 818 in Vila Real de Santo António, on the Portuguese side of the river.

We'll begin by heading north, taking in the views of Vila Real de Santo António. From there, we'll continue our journey to the Spanish coastline of the Guadiana River, where the town of Ayamonte in Huelva is located.

The crossing on the Spanish side will continue next to the Canela neighbourhood, where we'll see its typical fishing boats. We'll also learn about some of the local seafaring customs as we sail.

Next, we'll head to the Castro Marim and Vila Real de Santo António Marsh Natural Reserve to try to spot native birds such as flamingos and herons, among many other species.

Finally, after an hour's crossing, we'll return to the departure dock.

Conducidos de forma experta por nuestro guía Max, excelente piloto y gran conocedor de la historia de la zona. Sus comentarios, documentados y amenos, contribuyeron a realizar una excursión marítima muy satisfactoria. Mención aparte del tripulante canino (Noh?), siempre alerta ante cualquier contingencia. Totalmente aconsejable si visitas la zona. Translate this opinion into English.

We had a wonderful time on our boat tour of the Guadiana river from Villa Real. The boat was fab especially when we picked up speed! We learnt a lot from our lovely guide and would thoroughly recommend this experience.
