We will be taking you on a wonderful tour along the Ria Formosa Natural Park and visit the magnificent Desert Islands that form the Lagoon. We will also cruise on the Ria Formosa channels and anchor in a couple of bays next to some beautiful white sand desert beaches.

The Ria Formosa is a natural system on the Algarve coast, and has one of the richest and most interesting geologies, floras and faunas in Europe. It has about 18,400 hectares and 60km of extension and contains beaches, five barrier islands (Deserta or Barreta, Culatra, Armona, Tavira and Cabanas), two peninsulas (Ancão and Cacela), islets, and largely swampy and lagoon areas, covered by a dense network of water channels with an average depth of 2m. The Natural Park of Ria Formosa provides the most enjoyable boat experience with the most beautiful views of the Algarve and the best and largest water plan sheltered to rest and forget your daily routine. The sandy beaches of the desert provide silence and privacy to your stay.
