Boat tours and food trips on Ria Formosa

I booked online the boat with the glass bottom, but when we went to the meeting point were told that due to the tides it wasn’t possible. Then later one of the skippers said it was broken, so who knows what to believe. Don’t bother with the lunch included if you want a nice view. The food was good but be warned it’s basically served in the middle of nowhere. It’s quite “traditional” if you want that kind of vibe :) I found it all quite humorous but if you are the kind of person that wants the perfect deal and best use of your cash I would stay clear. (as you can see from their response, quite a professional setup!)

Very good. We did the boat/kayak/lunch/beach trip. Our skipper Christof had lots of interesting local knowledge and we enjoyed the opportunity to get even closer to the birds and shore line for an hour or so in the kayaks. We enjoyed a leisurely lunch at one of the restaurants on Culatra before a quick snooze on the beach before returning to Olhão. A great day out - suncream hat and sun specs essential!

Today we have made the trip to Culatra, Farol and Armona, eating an excellent fresh fish and oysters in a restaurant in Culatra, all included in the price of 40 euros. The attentive and friendly Captain Cristophe has made us spend a very pleasant day at sea.

The landscape and the islands are beautiful, but the company is very poorly organized. Prices change every day, we booked one day at a price and the next day when we were going to ride they sold the cheapest trip. We wanted to take it with food, but those who sold the ticket recommended us not, because to eat it was an odyssey in Culata to look for a restaurant in a hurry and eat anywhere because in a short time they came with the boat to look for us, they quarreled on us because apparently he had said an hour and we understood him an hour and a half. The explanations in English and French and do not tell you anything about the islands or fishing, as indicated in the brochures. IF YOU ARE SPANISH I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT.

The perfect trip, the guide / captain very attentive and helpful, però, once on the island they drag you almost to eat in their restaurant and you pwgsn an aupa nailed, they do not tell you the prices or what they put you and they they are surviving, olives to 2'euros without asking them they charge for it. Pan. For all a dunk of 40, per person a steal and you do not know what is worth every thing. If you are going to make it very clear that you do not want their services to eat.
